This is a FS98 aircraft. It doesn't need conversion.

INSTALLATION
Unzip the ZIP file into a temp file. If the aircraft files are in their folders then move
the folder(and contents)into the Flight Simulator98\AIRCRAFT folder. The path should be:
FS98\AICRAFT\Carvair(or whatever you name it) That's it!

***IN CASE FILES ARE SEPERATE AND NOT IN THEIR FOLDERS:***
you should have the following folders:
MODEL
PANEL
SOUND
TEXTURE

If this is not the case, then you need to put the .MDL file in MODEL, .af files in TEXTURE, panel.cfg in PANEL, and sound.cfg in SOUND. That should do it.


Hope you enjoy this and that everything works properly. I've had a difficult time finding this unusual aircraft for FS98 and so I decided to see what I could piece together from other aircraft files to create a FS98 Carvair.

On my FS I used DC-4 sounds and Tom Gibson's DC-6 IFR panel.

BAACKGROUND
Custom Air Service, based at Tara Field (listed as Clayton County in FS98) near Atlanta, uses Carvair N89FA on cargo flights. It is one of only 3 still flying in 1999.
