I can't open the Ski Dirty-zipfile from Moorings Beaver.
The other four are OK.

Does anyone have a good working Ski-dirty from Misty Moorings file in his computer? The name of the file is: texture.N003MM_Ski.zip.

If you have, put it please in your dropbox ans give me a line!

Because the winter is coming in the Netherlands, I have to have a used ski plane to be able to rise from the harsh Dutch snowfields. They never blow the snow away! >:(

Thanks in advance!

I added both files together, did some more repairs, added installation advice (just as there are as with the rest of the AM, SW, FL and TW aircrafts).

Everyone now can download the fully working plane as a zip from a Dropbox with this link:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/51d6r6d9m0mdf6i/texture.N003MM_Ski.zip?dl=0   :D

As you might know on the dashboard of the Aerosoft Beaver there is no NAV / GPS switch.
Such a switch is absolutely essential for the Beaver to follow a flight plan (Plan G3). To get such a switch on the dashboard now you can download an instruction via the following link:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/2n5bovlrcdvvety/Add%20GPS-Nav%20Switch%20to%20Auto%20Pilot%20panel.pdf?dl=0

When you want the Beaver to follow a .pln plan, do not forget to put the above switch on GPS and activate the NAV button on the autopilot!

Somewhere on the internet is a very small program that makes the screen of the Beaver GPS 295 somewhat easier to read. The landscape becomes clearer.
I can not find this program on my computer again. :(

Do you still have it? Please, let me know!
