Installation:
Unzip to a temporary folder keeping the folder structure intact. In the folder you will find three other folders, Effects, SimObjects and Sound. Copy these into your main FSX folder (C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X on a default installation).

This model is for FSX ONLY, and will not work in earlier versions of Flight Simulator.

Features:
Full native FSX sp2 model with bump and specular mapping.

9 paint schemes included.

Fully modelled smooth 3D gauges.

Adjustable payload. (Mk.VI and X models only) Use the FSX payload editor to add weight for Torpedo and / or rocket projectiles.
Using the FSX payload editor, you will see 2 figures after the station name. The first weight will just display the rocket rails or torpedo crutches. The second weight will show the weapon itself.

Droppable weapons. The rockets or topedo can be made to drop in mission mode by editing a save flight file.
Save flights are usually found in C:\Documents and Settings\~username~\My Documents\Flight Simulator X Files and have a .FLT extension.

To use rocket projectiles add:

[DroppableObjects.0]
ObjectSet.0=RP salvo, 1

and for torpedo add:

[DroppableObjects.0]
ObjectSet.0=Torpedo, 1

You can only use one or the other, not both. The weapon will drop, but will not destroy anything. This is an FSX limitation.

Thanks to:
Rick Piper, for his pilot figures and beta testing.
Lawdog, for allowing me you use his excellent Beaufighter soundpack.
Ben Watson, for beta testing and hosting CBFSim.
All the CBFS beta team.

Thankyou.

How to install this mod

FSX / P3D add-on
  1. Extract the downloaded archive

    Use 7-Zip (free) or WinRAR to extract the ZIP to a temporary folder. Don't install while still zipped — the simulator can't read inside ZIP files.
  2. Place files per the readme

    Most FSX add-ons go into one of: SimObjects\Airplanes\, Addon Scenery\, Effects\, or Gauges\.
  3. Always read the included readme

    Every mod ships with a readme.txt or README file. It tells you exactly where files go, what dependencies are needed, and any quirks specific to this add-on.

    It’s a beautifully made plane—looks amazing. It has a radio stack that I can tune to NDBs, but there is no radio compass.

    Great plane! Good graphics. Good flight dynamics. Good job!

    I downloaded and installed this aircraft. It all works properly, accept in 2D cockpit, there is no main panel; the main panel in 2D cockpit is missing. What can/should be done about this?
