Installing the Market Garden 2020 files.

After unzipping the package you will see a folder called Distribution

Under this are the following folders

Addon Scenery
Effects
Navigation
Sound


Installation:

1.
Copy the files contained in the Sound folder to the Sound folder of your FSX or P3D software

2.
Copy the files from the Effects folder into the Effects folder in your FSX/Effects or P3D/Effects folder
If prompted to overwrite any files respond no

3.
copy the files contained in the Effects\texture folder in to your FSX\effects\texture or P3D\effects\texture folder
If prompted to overwrite any files respond 'no'

4.
Copy the 2 flight plan files from the navigation folder and paste them in whichever folder you normally save your Little navmap flight plans

5.
Also within the navigation folder is a useful map of the route which I would suggest you print out for reference

6.
Within the package is a folder called Addon Scenery which contains the files for the NDB's, departure airfield and effects etc. that you will need. Please ensure that the addon scenery/scenery is activated in your scenery library.

7.
copy the flak, Market Garden and RAF Balderton folders and paste them into your FSX\addon scenery or P3D\Addon scenery folder

8.
Within your flight simulator software (FSX or P3D) activate the 3 folders #7. above and move them so that they are the top 3 in the scenery list.

9.
copy the files in the remaining Scenery folder and paste them into your FSX\Addon Scenery\Scenery or P3D\Addon Scenery\Scenery folder
Ensure that your addon scenery\scenery is listed and active in your scenery library

10.
To test that everything is working ok create a flight at RAF Balderton 4XBD on runway 25 to check that the scenery is active and you can see the runways and taxiways.

11.
Do a test flight of the route by loading the flight plan into Little navmap and flying the route. Tune your ADF to 400.0 and see if the 3 NDB's at March, Antigua and Tampa are being received correctly. They have a 10 mile range and all have frequency 400.0.

12.
Check also that you can see a ship at Tampa.

13.
you should get flak at Bermuda with tracer fire coming up at you.

14.
Finally check that at Waypoint Ellis IP that you can see yellow smoke on the ground.

15.
To drop the paratroopers hit the 'I' key once. 18 troopers should then exit the aircraft. If you inadvertently do this enroute press the 'I' key to reset the effect ready for the DZ.

If you have any problems or require assistance email me at glenishome@btopenworld.com and I will see if I can help.

Hopefully we will get the participation an event of this kind deserves and pay rightful tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice in one of the largest airborne events in history.
