INSTALLATION
AIRCRAFT
********
Extract the content of the zip file, and place the "AI Phantom Navy" folder into your FS2004/FS9 aircraft folder. Move the content of the effects into your FS2004/FS9 effects folder.
You can add optionnally a retro version of the Alphasim's A-6 carrier. First duplicate the texture folder into the #AI ALPHA CVN65 A-6_Carrier folder. Rename it as : texture.retro
Move the content of the A6_RETRO into the #AI ALPHA CVN65 A-6_Carrier folder (overwite any duplicate files)
Open the aircraft.cfg file with Notepad and add (at the end of the file) the content of the fltsim.txt file.

Technical notes about traffic and afcad files :
Each Big-E can carry fourteen AI aircraft. But only seven F-4B (plus two A-6 if you install the retro scheme) will appear with this package. To avoid some limitations of the FS AI engine, each one of the fourteen AI aircraft have its dedicated traffic and its parking's spot reserved. Twelve of them will fly on a short VFR pattern every twenty minutes (less than 10 minutes in flight, day or night). Two of them will fly on an IFR pattern (something like 15 minutes in flight, daylight only).
Current arrangement is
(where the X letter represent the Big-E carrier: 1=San Diego ; 2=Norfolk ; 8=Sicily ; E=Yankee Station)

CVX_01 CV01 F-4B VFR First squadron

You can improve the model having smoke effect by Nick Needham in your FS2004/FS9 effects folder.
(fx_nicksmokeAI_sm_lear.fx can be found into nicksaijetexhaust.zip @ avsim)
NB: The smoke fx can look strange when the model goes to take off. I recommend a small modification of the fx file to minimize the problem.
a/ First, try to work with a copy of the original file. Name this copy : fx_nicksmokeAI_sm_lear_f4.fx (the aircraft.cfg file are ready to use this file)
b/ Open this file with notepad. You will find five emitters
c/ Change the delay of each emitter with the following values :
[Emitter.0]
...
Delay=65.00, 66.50
...
[Emitter.1]
...
Delay=65.00, 66.50
...
[Emitter.2]
...
Delay=60.00, 60.00
...
[Emitter.3]
...
Delay=61.50, 62.50
...
[Emitter.4]
...
Delay=61.50, 62.50
d/ Save the modifications and move the file into your FS2004/FS9 effects folder
e/ Just in case, I will repeat "I take no responsibility for any damage caused during their installation or their use"
