July 15, 201510 yr Author I can;t even install the actual aircraft though, because of compatibility issues. It seems that a version of Dreamfleet B58 without RXP gauges is available for around £10 so I think I'll just go for that. From what I remember, the aircraft itself is really good. Interesting that you say Dreamfleet no longer trading, but they appear to have a website still that you can purchase downloads from here http://www.dreamfleet2000.com/index.htm should I be wary of this? Thanks, Paul

August 7, 201510 yr Author Finally got around to downloading it (Dreamfleet B58 without RXP), it's really good flight model and the cockpit is lovely. Recommended for the £12 it cost. Thanks all for your help.
August 7, 201510 yr Milviz makes a B55 Baron, which is much better than the default. Not sure if they will work with the Reality XP gages. The problem with the Milviz B55 is the clock doesn't have a second hand. the other bill I Earned My Spurs in Vietnam
August 11, 201510 yr Hi, I'm using the Dreamfleet B58 and A36 with Reality XP gauges on Win 7 64 bit and they work fine. The Reality XP GPS however doesn't work. You probably know this is because the Garmin Trainer is 16 bit software and that won't work on 64 bit Windows. But you can easily fit some other GPS in or use the default GPS. I've made two different setups, one that use the GPS from Friendly Panels and one that use the default GPS. In the setup that uses the default GPS I have modified the panel.cfg to replace the Reality XP GPS with a coverplate and I then use the default GPS as a pop-up just as when flying a default aircraft. In the setup that uses the Friendly Panels GPS I modified the panel.cfg to replace the Reality XP GPS with the one from Friendly Panels (GNS430 for the A36 and GNS530 for the B58). When installing the Dreamfleet aircraft when the installer prompts you to install the Garmin Trainer you can click the skip button. This prevents the Trainer from being installed, but the rest of the aircraft and the Reality XP gauges install just fine. The Friendly Panels GPS I use come from this pack: http://secure.simmarket.com/friendly-panels-gps-pack1.phtml The coverplate comes from this pack: http://secure.simmarket.com/simflyer-series-x-gns-sx.phtml The Simflyer pack also includes a GNS430 and a GNS530 that can be used in the Dreamfleet aircraft but I prefer the ones from Friendly Panels. If you want a copy of my modified panel.cfg files I can mail them to you. Henning Hi Henning I would be very much interested in your panel.cfg file - how can I contact you? Thanks in advance:-)
August 11, 201510 yr Hi Oglitch, Just send me a PM with your email address and I will send you the panel.cfg. Henning
