Description: The HMS Bounty for FS9 - VERSION 1.0
Built Specifically for FS9 - (Separate package required for FSX)


by Milton Shupe, Nigel Richards, Rob Barendregt, Sasha Rieger, and Rob Ibey. Helmsman by Craig "Full" Richardson


HMS Bounty 18th Century Tall Ship square rigger completely wind driven, individually animated and controlled sails, animated flags with direction and wind speeds, animated helm, and Sail Management Window to control all ship fuctions. Ship responds to wind speeds and direction with yaw, keeling, and pitch depending on sails deployed and yard arm positions. Ambient sounds, variable wind and gale storm sounds, ship's bell, "Salute", anchor weigh/drop all add to immersion.


NOTE: WILL NOT WORK IN FSX as it contains FS9 specific sim interfaces. (There is a separate FSX Only version)


NOTE: The latest version of FSUIPC is Required for the HMS Bounty to work. See the manual for link.


Note: Realism settings should be set to "Hard" for best Wind Effects.
