The A320 series is my first fully own aircraft project in FS98. This is 
the third version of my A320 model and at the same time it's the biggest 
update ever made to this model. All models are 100% new so everything is 
updated - or completely new. 

The two biggest updates are the new fuselage and moving parts. Also the 
whole technique to build this aircraft was new to me, as I abandoned the 
original methods (Flight Shop, Aircraft Factory) almost completely and 
built this aircraft by using SCASM. This allowed me to include almost all 
of the features what I wanted to this aircraft. Moving parts are also 
handmade, so I haven't used Aircraft Animator or any similar program. 
Unfortunately moving flaps are not included to v.3.0 A320s because of few 
internal restrictions of this model. 

Tail lights are also added to this aircraft. They can be turned on / off 
by pressing key L. Please note that it's recommended to keep these lights 
off during daytime. 

During takeoff it's highly recommended to trim up a little bit to improve 
the takeoff distance. Normal trim position for takeoff is between +7 and 
+10. Use also flap setting 1 or 2 at takeoff. 

Version 3.0 A320s have also revised flight model. It has been tested by 
our beta testing group and myself. Total flight hours with this model were 
about 400. Version 3.0 beta testers were Antti Haka, Harri Lnnqvist, 
Martin Mikkelsen, Harri Vappula, Janne Ronkonen, Timo Rissanen and Thomas 
Lorenzen. Model is also tested by real A320 pilots. 

As before, my A320 series models are also available for non-commercial 
virtual airlines. Any VA who's interested can have more information from 
me via e-mail.

Installation

This aircraft requires Microsoft Flight Simulator 98 and the Flight Shop 
Converter 98. 

Install this aircraft normally like any other FS98 aircraft by extrating 
all files to FS98 folder. Your unzip software should be able to extrate 
all files properly to correct subdirectories. If you are using WinZip, you 
just have to check the "Use Folder Names" button (it's located at the 
lower left corner of Extract window). 

Unfortunately I am unable to give any support in basic installation 
problems. It's so simple that you should manage it even with your eyes 
closed.... (almost)
