Another FS 2004 Freeware Beauty

Found this deep in the files of Flightsim.com.

Boeing 737-200 Bahamasair. I love the 737-200 with those sleek engines and old school analog panel.

Teddy Simmons paint and an awesome panel by Fabriza Barltette makes for one fine aircraft.

I will check this out. I miss the 732s. Never took the 73 new gens.

You’ll like it but the radios need to be reconfigured in the aircraft cig to work right but it’s an easy fix.

If you've downloaded the aircraft, maybe leave the developer some feedback.

 

It always goes down well :-)

Hi

Great airplane but did few tweaks:

If you try these please copy your original cfg files in case it does not work for you!

 

a/ Set of icons (bottom left) are hidden when brakes are on, have moved them up a bit in panel.cfg:

gauge101=SimIcons!Kneeboard Icon, 131, 730, 16, 16

gauge102=SimIcons!ATC Icon, 147, 730, 16, 16

gauge103=SimIcons!Map Icon, 163, 730, 16, 16

gauge104=SimIcons!GPS Icon, 179, 730, 16, 16

gauge105=SimIcons!ECU Icon, 195, 730, 16, 16

 

b/ Radios, already mentioned work in cockpit only if changed in aircraft.cfg to:

[Radios]

Com.1 = 1, 0

Com.2 = 1, 0

Nav.1 = 1, 0, 1

Nav.2 = 1, 0, 0

Adf.1 = 1, 0

Adf.2 = 1, 0

 

c/ Autothrottle seems to be ‘hunting’ so have adjusted in aircraft.cfg:

[autopilot]

max_throttle_rate= 0.05

autothrottle_max_rpm=500

[TurbineEngineData]

fuel_flow_gain= 0.5

 

d/ Pitch, both in flight and during landing seems to be more realistic when adjusting in aircraft.cfg:

[flight_tuning]

cruise_lift_scalar= 1.20

parasite_drag_scalar= 1.20

[Flaps.0] and [flaps.1]

lift_scalar= 0.50

pitch_scalar= 0.30

 

e/ In download there is a missing sound file for the gear warning (filename=bmgwarn) but if you install your own file, the warning comes up when flaps are 1 degree extended! Tweak in aircraft.cfg prevents this:

[gear_warning_system]

gear_warning_available=1

pct_throttle_limit= 0.1

flap_limit_power= 30

flap_limit_idle= 15

 

f/ In download there is a missing sound file for AP disengage (filename=bs-apilot_off). Have used one from the standard 737.

 

g/ Finally the side views show windows in each view. I got the side views from the standard 737 and used these in the panel.cfg to fix this.

 

A real pleasure to fly this aircraft.
