Drukair v1.1
If you find landing in Paro with an A320 is too difficult for you, or you want to fly into the other airports in Bhutan, it should be a “must have” for you. In real life, Drukair operates one ATR42 only rather than ATR72.
Note that there maybe a folder named something like “atr72-600_CVT_” generated inside the Community Mods Folder after installing the ATR72 and started the game for the first time. In case for any updates with this aircraft, delete the mentioned folder to make sure the changes to be applied.
For making the ATR72 really appear in AI traffic and report the aircraft model correctly during conversation with ATC, replace the [GENERAL] part the aircraft.cfg of the ATR72 (default path is “ATR72-600\SimObjects\AIRPLANES\atr725”, NOT the aircraft.cfg of the livery) to the following:
atc_type = “TT:ATCCOM.ATC_NAME ATR.0.text”
atc_model = “TT:ATCCOM.AC_MODEL ATR72.0.text”
editable = 1 ;
performance = ;
category = airplane ;
icao_type_designator = “AT72”
icao_manufacturer = “ATR”
icao_model = “ATR-72”
icao_engine_type = “Turboprop/Turboshaft”
icao_engine_count = 2
icao_WTC = “L”
icao_generic = 1
There are 3 airports besides Paro in Bhutan, but Bumthang (Bathpalathang) Airport (VQBT) is missing in the game. You may also have interest to get one made by me. Last but not least, the parallel taxiway of Paro Airport could only let aircrafts no larger than ATRs to get in, otherwise you wil end up in colliding the wings with lamps.
