Very nice Ilyushin Il-18 for vintage prop fans

Came across this site. In Russian. Downloads are at the bottom of the page. You will only need the smaller file. Great aircraft/panel conbination.http://il18.fluo.net/

Great stuff, these russian add-ons!But though I've downloaded some and archived, I don't fly them either because the manual and instrument labels are in cyrillic which I can't read at all, and/or navigation is so sophisticated that I'd almost need a study completed in maths to master them. A pity...Andreas

Thanks for the link John. We share a love for these older prop airliners, I recall your posts from the SCFA site.

<<<<>>>>>>>>You mean the bigger file, John, surely. The smaller file is navaids for Russia today or USSR 'before'.This one has been about for a couple of years, actually, hosted on the regular Russian site, I think. But it's good to be reminded of her at the back of my own hangar ... she's a beaut, thanks.MarkMark "Dark Moment" BeaumontVP Fleet, DC-3 AirwaysTeam Member, MAAM-SIM[a href=http://www.swiremariners.com/cathayhk.html" target="_blank]http://www.paxship.com/maamlogo2.jpg[/a]

>You mean the bigger file, John, surely. The smaller file is>navaids for Russia today or USSR 'before'.Hi Mark. The first (15 mb) file is "Il-18D_setup.exe". This installs the aircraft.The second (47 mb) file is a zip file that includes nav aids and scenery.Has anyone managed to get the ILS to show up on the panel? I've tuned in the correct frequency, but the ILS needles do not activate.

Hi Mark and all,I suggest you try the Tu 114 and AN 24 from Samdim.Their virtue (beside being excellent models) is that they have quite extensive docs in english. I believe that once you have mastered those two, the transition to the il-18 would not require that great an effort//Michael
