Instalation:
************

If you're a FS5.x user, copy all *.*af files to the textures subdierctory under your fs5.x directory and the .air file to the /pilots subdirectory. Load FS5.x and select the aircraft.

If you're a FS95/FS98 user (You will need the Converter for FS95 or the Converter for FS98):

1. Create a temporary directory (you may call it FS5TEMP);
2. Create two subdirectories under FS5TEMP, call them 'texture' and 'pilots';
3. Copy all *.*af files to the textures subdierctory under your fs5.x directory and the .air file to the /pilots subdirectory. Load the converter (FS95 or FS98) and convert the aircraft.

OBS.: Look for Tymball Aerospace Upgrade Kit for the DC-10-30:

- Add landing lights;
- Add checklists (FS98 only)

The Model:
**********

It took me several weeks to complete all details that I could put on this virtual DC-10 without breaking the internal Air Factory limits. It has flaps, slats, spoilers and textures all over its body <including the wings>.

Background:
***********

Created based on the jumb-twin specification by American Airlines in 1966. The proposal ended up being a 3 engined short to medium range wide body type of large capacity. Te purpose of this specification was to provide non-stop transcontinental service between the U.S East and West Coasts. Both  Lockheed and Douglas set about creating an aircraft to meet these specifications. Its no surprise then that the DC-10 and the Lockheed L1011 Tristar have very similar configurations. The significant difference being the #2 Engine in an individual nacelle above the fuselage ( the L1011 has a S shaped nacelle within the fuselage.
Douglas used GE engine initially rather than the P&W JT8D normally used on the its predecessor aircraft, the DC8-9. DC10 producion totalled 442 by early 1987 including 60 KC10A Extender for the USAF.


Operational Data:
*****************

Fuel Equation:
- 6,000 + 5.00X[Dist of flight (nm) - TOC - TOD] = fuel 

Operational Speeds at MTOW:
- V1 - 164 KIAS
- V2 - 178 KIAS
- Vr - 169 KIAS
- Vref - 145 KIAS
- Cruise Speed - 545 KTAS
- Vapp - 175 KIAS
- Vpat - 250 KIAS
