This is an update for FSX Acceleration of the Beechcraft Starship by Mike Stone. The author has updated the flight dynamics, and the panel so it works in FSX Acceleration. No virtual cockpit. You need the original aircraft for this update to work (SSTARSHP.ZIP). By Bob Chicilo.

Unzip to a folder of your choice. After backing up your air and aircraft.cfg files replace them with the ones in this update. Copy the picture to the aircraft folder. After backing up your panel folder, replace it with the one in this update.

The panel is the Starship panel by Ken Mitchell for FS2004. The gauges in the panel folder can be left there or copied to the main FS gauges folder. The ones presently in the panel folder are the only ones of the original gauges that would work in FS X.

If you have not already done so, copy the .cab files from the the default panel folders that have them, to the main FS gauges folder. For some the .cab files will be .zip files as .cab files are a type of .zip file.

See [reference speeds] section of the aircraft.cfg file for operating speeds.

Anyone: You have my permission to use any of my updates with the following conditions: One, you don't try to make money with them. Two, you don't try to hurt, or take something from anyone by using them.
