I didn't know that!
How do you get the scenery to work? I mean where is it (geographically).

Ricardo

look in the file doc126.html, inside the Tu-114 folder,you'll find a section
called 'Tanker scenery' which reads like this

The tankers fly at 250kts, FL260. Try to intercept one in a point indicated below. Approach the tanker and touch the fuel pipe by the refueling mast. Then press the refuel switch. The refueling process is so short and unreal because it's actually impossible to make interact an AI aircraft with the user one in FS9. But to touch the fuel pipe is already a tough task. Try to stay as long as possible touching the pipe - this way you simulate a real-time refueling.

to make it 'work' you just have to be in the right place at the right time!

Pete

Thanks for the help. I should have read the doc when installing the TU-126.

Cheers

A very nice model, I am not a fan of Russian panels and aliased the Falcon 50 panel...!! anyway very nice if a little slow on climb and speed but handles very well, I like it

Just been looking around for the reason of the glass dome in front of the aircraft as it always intigued me and all I can find is that with the early models they had that position for a navigator and the other for observation purposes.

Hi Nigel

This came up on another thread recently and I mentioned the reason then

It was to help navigate over the huge land areas with virtually no navaids and not many landmarks.
