Files included in CARINS.ZIP:
=============================
C_B-INS.TXT This file
CARIBINS.BGL INS fix file
CARIBINS.TXT Source data file
Purpose of the BGL file:
========================
This small BGL file adds 73 virtual VORs for oceanic navigation
on Amber 555 airway from San Juan to Bimini and most "colored"
airways in the Caribbean area covered by Microsoft Caribbean
add-on scenery. It does not include any compulsory reporting
points as depicted on Enroute Low Altitude, Caribbean and South
America charts L-7/L-8 or reporting points (with a few
exceptions) that can be determined by VOR/DMEs in the add-on
scenery. The file will be updated as soon as the charts
L-7/L-8 arrive. Frequencies have been selected (XXX.X5) to
insure conflict free reception.
Simulating an Inertial Navigation System, course guidance and
ground speed are available when within about 200 miles of the
fix. DME information is only available within 99.9 miles
simply because the instrument panel readout in FS5 does not go
above this value. Instead of inputting lat/lon values into the
INS, simply tune the applicable VOR frequency for course
guidance, ground speed and range information.
When used with Billy Ruggiero's OCEANI.ZIP, colored airway
navigation is available from East Coast cities and Miami, into
and throughout the Caribbean proper.
How to:
=======
To use this file, copy CARIBINS.BGL into your scenery directory
(\fltsim5\scenery). To remove it, just delete if from your
scenery directory. It does not overwrite or change any known
file. Backup of the scenery directory is recommended just to
be on the safe side. Should you be asked to overwrite an
existing file during initial installation, terminate the
installation immediately and rename CARIBINS.BGL to an unused
name.
Users of BGLMGR by John Trindle need not make any changes to
their configuration file. When MS Caribbean scenery is
enabled, this file will also be enabled.
