If you want to add a new livery to be used with this new version of the KingAir, please note that there is an error on the provided aircraft.cfg under  ...\bksq-aircraft-analogkingair\SimObjects\Airplanes\bksq-aircraft-analogkingair-livery-example.

At the top under VARIATION it should read:

[VARIATION]
base_container = "..\bksq-aircraft-analogkingair"

Howdy all. The KA is not seeing my TDS GTN750 but the Caravan does and displays the gauge. Manual sez it’s  all supposed to be automatic and it is with Caravan but with KA nothing installs for me. 
 

Anyone else?  Ive reached out to TDS support and I thought I’d check here too.
TIA,

Same here with the PMS50. Not switching automatically.

Mega Bummer!

I bought the analogue Caravan but it flies the same as the default one and gets you from A to B in the same way. Performance and flight model is no different. I'm guessing the same will be the case with the King Air. OK there are a few more knobs to fiddle with but the result is exactly the same except you have shelled out £27.

Sounds like this gem isn’t for you.

Well I don't know. Seems very dear for what is essentially a default plane with different knobs and buttons? After a gin and tonic I'll probably buy it though..😀

EDIT. I've bought the bloody thing! Nurse!!

I hear you haha. I look at it this way. What do i frequently fly now? The Caravan and King Air. In the case of the Caravan, there are high quality liveries already available that work perfectly, and include a darker cockpit. So i really have everything i need exterior wise. The depth of systems plus being easy on performance mean this add-on instantly goes to the top of my hangar. It will get a lot of flight hours. So if you rarely take either of these out in default form, maybe not a great fit. But I love the idea.

Remember to select GTN750 in the cockpit:

Another thing: Random failures is enabled as default, but can be disabled in the failures menu in the weather radar:

Just got it! Solid aircraft. Electrical system is pretty deep LOL

KA with TDS working ok here - possibly a minor issue with distance to waypoints but that can be addressed

LPV working perfectly.... oh my gosh I love this bird already!

Don't get me wrong. Rule Britannia and I love Just Flight. But at least, please, include some liveries for the plane at this price. I can't be doing with  hacking files to get a livery to work. It's too dear. It's just too dear for what you get. How do I get out of the plane at the end of a flight? The doors won't open!

It seems this issue was already been corrected by JustFlight.
