FS2004 Curtiss C46 VC And Failure Model, v2. For the C46 Curtiss Commando aircraft by Libardo Guzman Garcia, Greg Pepper, and Tom Gibson (GAC46V2.ZIP). This is Version 2 of previous upload (c46BFLVC.ZIP). It adds a virtual cockpit similar to the Buffalo Airways C46 cockpit as well as pilot induced and random failures/damages through gauges originally developped by Charles Owens for the DC3C (most failures) and by Robert Graf (carburator icing and oil consumption) for the DC-6. These gentlemen together with Gunter Tesons RealEngine_v14 have really made flying piston aircraft a lot more interesting. The frequency of random failures can be adjusted between "never" and "certain" but you always have to watch the engine limitations, carburetor icing, and oil consumption. Further gauges by other authors are used or have been modified or have been developed. Version 2 increases the number of failures (engine, fire, leaks, systems, equipment, instruments), and introduces an improved upper overhead panel, an abbreviated interactive checklist on the panel, and reduced breaking in rain, snow and freezing rain. Version 1 is not required for Version 2. See "C46BFL Readme V2.pdf" for further details and credits. Required files: GAC46V2.ZIP, REALENGINE_V14.ZIP and also recommended The Project Tupolev TU-154M aircraft for the fully functional KLN90B GPS. By Detlev J. Rohmer.
