Welcome to the DC-3 Airways World Rally Flights 2004.

Now you have unzipped the main zip file you will find included with this readme file two folders entitled:
WR 04-01 Kathmandu to Paro FS2002
WR 04-01 Kathmandu to Paro FS9
 Choose the folder that refers to the flightsim version you prefer and open it.

You will find included in the folder the following files:
WR 04-01 Kathmandu to Paro (Folder. This is the weather file)
WR 04-01 Flight description.pdf (This is the flight description)
WR- 04-01 Flight description.doc (This is the flight description)
Departure.pdf
En-Route 1.pdf
En-Route 2.pdf
En-Route 3.pdf
Approach.pdf
'Real Weather'installation instructions.txt
Kathmandu, Airport layout.jpg
Paro, Airport layout.jpg

You will find it a great help if you print the following files:
WR 04-01 Flight description.pdf or WR 04-01 Flight description.doc (These are the two versions of the flight description)
As well as printing, hand numbering the following files will help to keep track of events as the flight unfolds.
Departure.pdf
En-Route 1.pdf
En-Route 2.pdf
En-Route 3.pdf
Approach.pdf
Kathmandu, Airport layout.jpg
Paro, Airport layout.jpg

It may help to print the 'Real Weather' installation instructions prior to installing the weather folder WR-04 Kathmandu to Paro.

No FS Navigator plan files have been included for this flight as the final approach to Paro is outside the 'normal' descent parameters to display properly in FS Navigator and may give misleading information.

General comments and suggestions: First suggestion is to read the flight description thoroughly prior to flight to aquaint yourself with what is entailed. Make no bones about it, this approach is difficult and fully deserves it's place as one of the top forty most dangerous airports in the world to approach. In the real world this approach is very well respected. I have arranged that a convenient 10knot headwind will ease the approach for us virtual pilots just a little bit. 
As the flight description will suggest, make sure you are in landing configuration before final descent. The steepness of the descent will mean your airspeed will increase quite dramatically but keep your eyes on the threshold and thankfully, a long runway will give considerable latitude for a safe landing.

A safe flight,

Norm Hancock
Sr VP DC-3 Airways.
