FSX MAF Cessna 208B

MAF-liveried Cessna 208B Grand Caravan repaint brings the default turboprop a clean Mission Aviation Fellowship look, complete with PK-MAN registration and matching details for believable ramp and bush flying. Designed for FSX, it requires the stock Cessna Grand Caravan 208B and keeps the original flight model, panel, and sounds.

Installation Instructions:
Step 1: Copy the "texture.pkman" folder to your 208B aircraft folder. Default location is C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\SimObjects\Airplanes\C208B.
Step 2: Within that same folder, that you just copied "texture.pkman" to, you should find a file called aircraft.cfg. Open that file and copy the following into it:

[fltsim.xx]
title=Cessna Grand Caravan PK-MAN
sim=Cessna208B
model=""
panel=""
sound=""
texture=pkman
kb_checklists=Cessna208B_Check

atc_id_color=0xff000000
atc_id=PK-MAN
atc_airline=MAF
atc_flight_number=0
atc_parking_types=RAMP
ui_manufacturer=Cessna
ui_type=C208B Grand Caravan
ui_variation=PK-MAN
ui_typerole="Single Engine TurboProp"
ui_createdby=Microsoft Corporation
description="Wherever you want to go today, the Cessna Caravan can get you there. First introduced by Cessna in 1985, the Caravan was designed to land nearly anywhere, on land or water. Undoubtedly, it has lived up to its creators' intentions. Whether supplies need to be brought to a flooded village in the mountains of Peru, an injured person needs to be flown out from a remote lake in Alaska, or an archeologist wants access to a tiny site in the African desert, the Caravan has what's needed to do the job."

Step 3: You should see other paragraphs, at the top, just like the one that you copied. Look at the very last of those paragraphs. At the top of it, it will say "[flightsim.(variable number here)]" what ever that variable number is, replace the "xx" of the one you just copied with the next higher number. (variable number+1)
Step 4: Enjoy

How to install this mod

FSX / P3D aircraft
  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. Copy aircraft files into SimObjects

    Place the aircraft folder inside FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes\. The folder must contain an aircraft.cfg file. Effects go into FSX\Effects\; gauges go into FSX\Gauges\.
  3. Verify in FSX

    Launch FSX, go to Free Flight → Select Aircraft and find your new aircraft under its manufacturer.
  4. 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.
