BLUEGRASS AIRLINES

November 2006   

Historic Bluegrass Airlines by Bill Von Sennet

 

 I used Bill and Lynn Lyon’s Cessna T-50 Bobcat for FS 2002 for these flights.  The aircraft works fine using FS 9, except the props are invisible.  I made a few changes to update the flight dynamics for FS 9.  I also added a VOR1, NDB, DME, parking brake handle and Tom Goodrick’s FTime to the main panel.  The panel is another masterpiece from J.L. Stubbs.  To generate the normal 140mph cruise I set the manifold pressure at about 21” and the RPM at about 2100.  Fuel flow is about 25 GPH.

 

Download FS 2002 skyking2.zip 6.6mb  from www.flightsim.com or www.avsim.com  It includes both a wheel and float version.

 

Download revised FS 9 flight dynamics and modified panel.  (updated 25-November 2006)  (78k)
