Here you go:  INSTALLATION

0.
Always make sure that you have a backup of your original program files!

1.
Extract the contents of this archive (except ReadMe.txt and Example_large.jpg)
to your FS2002/aircraft folder. It will create a folder like
[...fs2002/aircraft/Saab340b_FSP] with all necessary files in it.

You can also extract the files to a temporary folder and the copy it to your
FS2002/aircraft folder.

2.
Start FS2002 and select the SAAB 340b Skyways in the Select Aircraft menu.

Take off and safe flight!

NOTE:
If you want to use the plane only as AI, then you can replace the file
"fsp_saab340b_t.bmp" in the texture.skyways-folder. This file has the same
livery but without the "SE-ISV" markings, instead it is unmarked.

To do this:

1. Erase the file "fsp_saab340b_t.bmp" IN THE TEXTURE.SKYWAYS-FOLDER (Very important!)
2. Rename the file "fsp_saab340b_t_NO_TAILNUMBER.bmp" in the same folder
   to "fsp_saab340b_t.bmp". That´s it!

Does anyone know where I could find downloads for a HM coastguard s-61 seaking and or a RAF mountain rescue seaking for fs2002, if you know where these may be available please tell me.

Did you not notice the fact that the last post on this topic was in may? It's bad practice to bump really old threads like this.

Except he was the topic starter and had some information that was actually useful and a question that wasn't dumb.

Maybe you could hit "Lock Topic" on the blue bar lower left of this message so we can stop discussing things on this thread. That is if you don't need it anymore.
