FS2004 Douglas C-124 Globemaster II
By Jens B. Kristensen, March 2010.
Version 1.0
The C-124 Globemaster II was the standard USAF stategic
transport during the 1950s and 60s, until it was replaced
with the Lockheed C-141 Starlifter. The C-124A and C-124C
are both included in this package.
For FS2004 only, FSX users should download C124_V10X.zip instead.
For more information, see the pdf document installed in
the \Documetation folder.

Model, panel, virtual cockpit and textures by Jens B. Kristensen,
made with FSDS 3.5.1, FS Panel Studio, Paint Shop Pro and DXTbmp.
Sounds:
The sounds included here are, with permission from Tom Gibson,
borrowed from the Boeing 377 Stratocruiser model available at
www.calclassic.com. They were originally released for FS98
by H. P. Christeler, but have apparently been modified since,
and I have used FS Sound Studio to update the sound.cfg to
FS2004 / FSX format. Please read H. P. Christelers original
readme file for this soundset, ReadMe_original.txt.
Gauges:
The gauges are to some extent based on default gauges of
Flight Simulator, some of them modified by me for four engines.
Other gauges are by myself.
The ILS indicator is based on xml code by Saviero Maurri
(Vickers Varsity panel), bitmaps by me.
A number of gauges (mostly switches) are, with permission
from Tom Gibson, www.calclassic.com, based on work by Tom
himself, Kevin Trinkle, Ernie Kennedy and Ken 'Mitch' Mitchell.
I have used complete gauges from them (cowl flap switches),
or used the bitmaps from their c-style gauges and made
xml-versions of them.
Finally, a big 'thank you' to Hans-Joerg Naegele, who gave
me permission to use gauges from his Lockheed 049 Constellation
panel (VNConnie049.cab), directly or modified.

Good luck flying the C-124 Globemaster II!
