FSX Beech C45H Expeditor Cargo Plane

The Beech C-45H Expeditor cargo aircraft brings classic “freighter dog” character to FSX with a weathered N6648R scheme, authentic-style virtual cockpit panel options, improved night lighting, and refined prop and interior details. Updated aircraft and air files tune the Pratt & Whitney R-985 behavior while using the simulator’s default R-985 sounds and effects.

This is an FSX adaptation of the FS2004 D18S cargo plane by Milton Shupe, presented as a former Beech C-45H Expeditor in the livery of a "freighter dog" plane (registration N6648R), used by the Blue Skys Inc. The package includes a new VC panel, generally authentic to former Expeditors, which still fly today. FSX adaptation by Vladimir Gonchar. (See also FSX_C45H_FIX.ZIP).

This package includes:
- original model, basic texture and gauge pack by Milton Shupe.
- optional VC panels with necessary additional gauge collection made by me; the instrument panel composition is generally authentic to former C-45 Expeditors.
- additional texture with new exterior, some modifications of the interior, new night panel illumination and prop files.
- corrected aircraft and air files (I changed engine data in accordance with FSX Grumman Goose file - same engine P&W R-985).
I use FSX default P&W R-985 sound and effects.

IMPORTANT!!! PLEASE, PAY ATTANTION TO THE ENGINE START SEQUENCE (REFER TO THE CHECKLIST).
You should first engage the starter (the starter button is being pressed simultaneously with the ignition boost and primer buttons) and then move full forward a mixture lever.

INSTALLATION: Just put the content of the D18S_Rusty Myers_float folder (SimObjects and Gauges folders) to the main FSX folder.

Enjoy!
