Hi, folks!

As announced in the "Beaver Creek" thread, here comes the ISDT ATR42-300 in First Air colours:

Base aircraft available here:

This aircraft seems a little nervous to me around the pitch axis and the elevator trim, so here's my suggestion for the aircraft.cfg entry:

[flight_tuning]
cruise_lift_scalar=1.00000
pitch_stability=1.20000
roll_stability=1.00000
yaw_stability=1.00000
parasite_drag_scalar=1.00000
induced_drag_scalar=1.00000
elevator_effectiveness=1.00000
aileron_effectiveness=1.00000
rudder_effectiveness=1.00000
elevator_trim_effectiveness=0.80000
aileron_trim_effectiveness=1.00000
rudder_trim_effectiveness=1.00000
hi_alpha_on_roll=1.00000
hi_alpha_on_yaw=1.00000
p_factor_on_yaw=1.00000
torque_on_roll=1.00000
gyro_precession_on_roll=1.00000
gyro_precession_on_yaw=1.00000

Owners of the Shockwave 3D lights may use these values:

[LIGHTS]
//Types: 1=beacon, 2=strobe, 3=navigation, 4=cockpit
light.0 = 3, 2.05, -38.88, 5.45, fx_shockwave_navred ,
light.1 = 3, 2.05, 38.88, 5.45, fx_shockwave_navgre ,
light.3 = 2, 2.05, -38.88, 5.45, fx_shockwave_strobe_2 ,
light.4 = 2, 2.05, 38.88, 5.45, fx_shockwave_strobe_3 ,
light.5 = 1, -39.85, 0.00, 18.90, fx_beacon ,
light.6 = 2, 1.1, 0.00, -6.40, fx_shockwave_strobe ,
light.7 = 3, -40.25, 0.00, 2.05, fx_navwhi ,
light.8 = 4, 22.212, 0, 0.610, fx_vclight,
light.9 = 4, -17.870, 0, 0.710, fx_vclight, //main exit
light.10 = 4, 27.71, 0.00, 0.610, fx_vclight, //flightdeck


Just uploading...

Has anyone encountered problems opening the included readme file?
I just received a message by AVSIM:
