Bob Chicilo's readme:


Hello.  This is the Alphasim F-4E Phantom 2.  I downloaded it from their freeware aircraft page. I have added afterburners, a panel, and tweeked the aircraft.cfg file and the air file.

Unzip the file to a folder of your choice then copy the aircraft into the FS2002/2004 aircraft folder.  Copy the gauges and effects into the main FS gauges and effects folders.  No need to overwrite what is already there.

To see the afterburner and smoke effects you must, at least briefly, go into the cockpit.

Landing can be done with 2 or 3 notches of flaps and the aircraft trimed so approach speed is 150 to 170 knots.  For me this was from 50 to 70 on the digital trim gauge. Some throttle may be necessary, depending on angle of attack and glide slope.

Unlike the F-4N upgrade, I did not try to make this one able to easily go overspeed. It will still reach mach 2 in level flight, and at anything near this speed you need to be careful what you do not to overstress the aircraft, even though it takes 10 gees to overstress it.  

Comments or questions welcome.

This is freeware compiled from freeware, you have no right to make money with it.
