Early in 1981, the Piper Aircraft Company made a joint effort to have PZL of Poland, build the production models of the Pocono, designated the PZL M19 series. It was designed at first, as a turboprop version of the basic Pocono with a more robust airframe and 577 shaft-Horsepower turboprop Pratt and Whitney engines. An increase in gross weight of 809 pounds, was realized and this variant is pressurized, the "-C" version, was capable of taking 16 passengers from small airfields to airliner hubs, when regional jet were not realized at the time. The design took advantage of recently certified Commercial Pilot's the ability to step in and help keep the large airliners at the time, full of paying passengers, since it remained below the 12,500 pound gross weight threshold. This FSX simulation is a most basic airplane that best shows a large hulled airplane's weight and balance, pressurization and fuel management problems that varied with each flight that all airliners share. This project relys on basic FSX gauges and the gauge package from the original Pocono Project. (FSX_Piper_Pocono.zip) An FSDS 3.5.1 project by Ronald Prindle
An information folder has been provided that contains data I have personally observed as well as a set of BMP files, should you wish to make up your own airline.
This project rely's on FSX Gauges and the basic King Air 350 sound package, see the Sound.CFG file for the location of your King Air 350's effects.
