I'll let you discover the rest!
The flight model (as in the ATR-42) of the T-1040 is referenced
to the exp-jet plane. If you do not have a sound card it sounds like
a jet. If you have a sound card, the TURPRO.VOC by Ralph Zimmerman sounds
the best.
The jet reference model was chosen because the FS4 model for the
jet does not have some of the restrictions that the prop plane does.
In all of the planes that I have uploaded, I've tried to keep weight,
fuel, & power accurate; the jet model allows me to do that. The basic
power reference for a turboprop is Torque. %Power best represents that.
To fly the T-1040, load these files in your FS4 directory:
T-1040__
T-1040__.sim
To modify the T-1040 load REFT1040.SIM in your FS4 directory. Then
handle the T-1040.AFX file using standard AAF proceedures.
Please feel free to use any part, or all, of this file for any
no-commercial purpose.
Your comments, suggestions, and criticisms are appreciated.
