C135A SOUNDPACK WITHOUT REVERSE THRUST: THIS IS A HIGH QUALITY REPRESENTATION OF THE P&W J57 TURBOJET ENGINES WHICH POWERED THE BOEING C135-A AIRCRAFT. IT IS INTENDED TO BE USED WITH GARY CARLSON's SUPERB C135-A MODEL FOR FS2004 (AVAILABLE AT AVSIM.COM) AND FEATURES C135 SPECIFIC COCKPIT AMBIANCE AND ENVIRONMENTAL SOUND.

SOUND COMPILATION BY MIKE HAMBLY, MARK CRANSTON, & BENOIT PLAMONDON.

INSTALLATION

This folder contains a single subfolder named "SOUND". Simply delete the current sound folder inside any FS aircraft and replace it with this new one. 

Select "YES" or "YES TO ALL" in response to any installation prompts.

RECOMMENDATIONS

The following recommendation is not essential but will promote correctly cancelling availability of reverse thrust with C135-A aircraft of your choice. PLEASE NOTE THAT REVERSE THRUST SOUNDS HAVE BEEN REMOVED FROM THIS SOUNDPACK ANYWAY.

Open your AIRCRAFT.CFG file for C135-A aircraft of your choice. Scroll down through all the data and locate the entry entitled [TurbineEngineData].

Inside this section identify the line "reverser_available="

Change the numerical value after the = sign to read "0". The new altered line will then read "reverser_available=0".

This is intended to ensure reverse thrust is no longer availablle. THIS ADJUSTMENT SHOULD ONLY BE APPLIED TO THOSE C135-A AIRCRAFT YOU DESIRE NOT HAVING REVERSE THRUST. DO NOT APPLY THIS ALTERATION TO ALL HJG C135's GENERALLY.

SOUND RECOMMENDATIONS

For best overall audio quality set your FS sound sliders as follows :-

"ENGINES" 60-65 %
"ENVIRONMENT" 80-85%

PLEASE NOTE: For best audio quality a dedicated sound card is recommended. Audio quality will vary between systems and devices. Sound settings are a matter of personal preference. Experiment with the above recommended settings first then adjust to your particular preference if necessary. 

ENJOY !
