Is there any way to make this work in FSX SP2? I´ve commented out the radar gauge, but as soon as the flight loads, the plane starts to bounce on the runway. As far as I know SP2 should be the same as Acc., but without the extra stuff (planes and such).

I think Rob has posted an update for the MoI in the aircraft.cfg values which is supposed to stop it for those that have a problem. It is over at SOH.
I have a problem with the gauges as it seems that the FA-18.dll is not recognised on my system. I cannot even get the FA-18 model to show its gauges.

TBH, I think the contact points are a bit odd. The damping ratio is set at 5.6 for the nose wheel and 11.99 for the main gear. Values should normally be between 0 and 1.
I've dropped mine down to 0.9 and 0.54 respectively (values taken from the default Lear) and that seems fine.

Excellent news that it is useable in P3Dv2.2. I have waited for the 125 for years - and it's freeware!

Can anyone comment on what the sounds are like. Is it an authentic version of the actual engine sound of the time ?

The sounds are authentic, I have spoken to the chap that did them although he tells me he is going to tweek them for P3DV2.

Thanks Nev. From what I remember as a kid, those engines were NOISY. Are the transition sounds well captured through the entire power range?

The sounds are as accurate as can be achieved and were sampled from a variety of viper engined aircraft including the Dominie as well as static engine runs. The internal cockpit sounds are solely from the Dominie.

That's brilliant. An accurate sound version on this aircraft is a must. Can't wait to download it.
