Tinmouse II v1.1 released
Posted: 31 Aug 2006, 10:25
Bob Scott has released a comprehensive update to the Tinmouse 737-200 panel on Avsim (tinmouse2_b732_v1_1.zip). If any of you closet Boeing fans (Dan? 
) haven't tried this yet, then you should do. It has alternative config files to work seamlessly with the Tinmouse, FFX/Cantu (my choice) or Flight 1 aircraft. The update doesn't include any aircraft and will install over the top of the v1 panel if you have it.
The panel and systems are now 95% operational and new sound files for cockpit and engines are included in the update. It supports the CIVA INS and Reality XP WX-500 weather radar and includes a fully operational PDCS computer. Fortunately for the technically challenged, like myself, it's not necessary to use these to fly it although there is a moderate learning curve to switching on the essential systems :roll:
It is a 2D-only panel of excellent quality and the aircraft is stable with the right amount of response. It is one of the most satisfying freeware packages around and is a work-in-progress with even more improvements on the way. There is also a very helpful, dedicated support forum on Avsim for FAQs and advice (http://forums.avsim.net/dcboard.php?az= ... &forum=253).
My approaches and landings are consistently better with this panel/aircraft than any other, except perhaps the VC10 :dance: Great for improving your confidence and you won't get fed up with it quickly either.
Cheers for now,
Ian
