12/11/2013: Updated to v1.2 : Correction A320 & 321, the aircraft.cfg files were not installed
Introduction
Egyptair fleet Ultimate pack for FSX SP2 & P3D is the result of months of assembly, creation and modification of files in order to promote the Flight Simulator community with the best freeware of the world. This pack is by far the most complex of all the fleets already assembled rikoooo.com such as:
Emirates fleet FSX & P3D
Air France fleet FSX & P3D
Air France fleet FS2004
Special efforts were made to correct problems already well known from previous packs. Twelve Egyptair quality repaints have been created by rikoooo and the adaptation of an optional FMC (Flight Computer Managment) to virtual cockpits of Airbus A320 and A321.
All models include: GPWS (Ground Proximity Warning System) with different alarms such as "Bank angle", "Wind shear", "Too Low Terrain", "Dont sink" and so on. + A complex tool for managing Push Back (2d panel) + a cabin system annoucment (Flightdeck) with voices of the hostesses (panel 2d), voices of the captain and sounds of different activities such as real melodies of Egyptair.
In 2011, Fleet Egyptair and Egyptair Express (Cargo not included) consisted of ten models mainly Airbus and Boeing, this package reflects to the most real that time. A total of 18 repaints are proposed such as old colors and new colors of Egyptair. All models are equipped with night textures, windows, headlights, beacon, logo etc, and for virtual cockpits as well. Each plane has its own sound depending on the type of engine, its own model following flight characteristics and so on. For example, the Boeing 777-266ER is fitted with PW4090 engines (Pratt & Whitney) faithfully reproduced.

Egyptair : The jewel of Egypt
Egyptair is one of the first airlines in the world.
Founded in May 1932, the company Egyptian flight is in fact the seventh flight company to emerge. From August 1933, EgyptAir offers commercial flights between Cairo and Alexandria on board a Spartan. Two years later, the fleet has twelve EgyptAir aircraft de Havilland more.
During the Second World War, the Egyptian government requisitioned the airline and renamed "Misr Airlines."
Ten new aircraft Beach in addition to the fleet of "MisrAir" in 1946 and in 1949 bought ten MisrAir Vickers Vikings prior to his service French aircraft, the "Languedoc", a year later.
In 1956, the Egyptian airline MisrAir merged with Syrian Airlines, becoming the "United Arab Airlines" or "AAU". In 1960, the UAA stands out as the first Middle Eastern airline to use jet (Comet 4-c). For the launch of its long-haul flights and to support international air traffic, the airline bought an Egyptian Boeing 707 in 1968.
In 1971, Syrian Airlines and MisrAir Separate: the Egyptian airline then resumes its original name, EgyptAir.
On July 10, 2008, EgyptAir is part of the Star Alliance (the largest alliance in the world). EgyptAir was named best airline in Africa AFRAA. The company reported record total revenues of 1.143 billion U.S. dollars for the fiscal year ending July 31, 2007 and according to the company, from 2006 to 2007, EgyptAir carried more than 6.5 million passengers. (source Wikipedia)

Today, the airline EgyptAir carried more than 555 weekly flights from Cairo and many other Egyptian cities to 69 domestic destinations (Abu Simbel, Alexandria, Assiut, Aswan, Hurghada, Luxor, Sharm el-Sheikh) and international d Africa. Examples include Casablanca, Tunis, Algiers, Tripoli, Banghazi, Asmara, Khartoum, Addis Ababa, Entebbe, Nairobi, Lagos, Accra and Kano.
EgyptAir also serves several Asian cities (Bombay, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Guangzhou, Beijing, Seoul, Tokyo and Osaka), Europe (Oslo, Stockholm, Copenhagen, Moscow, Berlin, London, Amsterdam, Brussels, Düsseldorf , Frankfurt, Munich, Vienna, Zurich, Paris, Geneva, Milan, Budapest, Kiev, Rome, Barcelona, Madrid, Lisbon, Istanbul, Athens and Larnaca) and North America (New York / JFK and also Toronto / Pearson from 1 June, 2011).

New features and enhancements for gauges on Airbus A3XX
1 ECAM
The ECAMS shows the 5 configurations for flaps and slats.
A right mouse click in the upper right corner of the ECAMS ( above the slats and flaps) toggles between kg and lbs.
The standard configuration is kg.
In the lower part you will see various messages about the configuration of the aircraft.
For exemple :

2 ECAMS2
This is only an addition to the default ECAMS and should add informations about temperature TAT and SAT, Time Zulu and Local
and total weight to the default ECAMS.
3 Autoflare (not visible)
With this feature the autopilot should be able to land the aircraft. If the autopilot is switched to APR the vertical speed is reduced
if radio height is less than 150 feet.
At 20 foot the autothrust is set to zero. It is important that your thrust lever is also set to zero otherwise thrust is increased to the
position of your thrust lever.
At heights above 20 feet you can start the go around by hitting the TOGA Button on the ECU. Autopilot is set to climb and thrust is
increased.
It is important that you select the correct speed and flaps configuration for the finals approach.
Don´t forget to set the autobrake and set your thrust lever to zero. As Pilot in command you should start a go around maneuver
if the autopilot failles.
4 SFCC Slats and Flaps Control Computer (not visible)
Airbus has 4 Positions of the flap handle but 5 configurations of the slats and flaps.
Handle Pos Slats/Flaps Text shown on ECAMS Remarks
0 0 / 0 -
1 18 / 10 1 Approach configuration (selected automatically by the SFCC at a speed > 140 knots)
1 18 / F 1+F Takeoff configuration (selected automaticcaly by the SFCC at a speed < 140 knots)
2 22 / 20 2
3 22 / 30 3
4 25 / 35 4
At takeoff configuration 1+F the SFCC retracts automatically the flaps to 1 if the speed is greater than 210 knots.
The SFCC sets automatically the spoiler to armed position if flaps are set and speed is greater than 60 knots. The spoilers are automatically retracted when
speed is below 55 knots.
5 Autobrake
The brake is activated by right mouse click on the button.
On the ground you can only select the MAX button and in this case the RTO (Refused Take-Off) brake programm is selected.
In the air you can select LO / MED/ MAX

VasFMC Flight Managment Computer
VasFMC is a free program (open source) created by Alex Wemmer to simulate a complete semi-pro environment in FMS (Flight Management System). This program requires FSUIPC (included)
Rikoooo has adapted the gauges of vasFMC to be displayed in the VC, however, to not conflicte with the other gauges in the VC some of them have simply been removed, such as the buttons on the autopilot. When you fly with vasFMC, keep in mind that the VC simply serve as decoration.
You must control your A320 or A321 with the 2D panel only.
Very important, carefully read the program manual.
Be aware that vasFMC is a heavy program and requires some time to bootwhen you choose an Airbus equipped with this option.
The installer of Rikoooo allows you to automatically install vasFMC 2.1 in your simulator and pre-configured for the Airbus A320 and A321 Egyptair. The package includes the Navdata of Navigraph - Navdata - AIRAC 0609 year 2006 (free)
Below is the 2D panel (at night) :
MCDU and complete panel
 
vasFMC can crash your FSX or P3D if you do not have enough free RAM & CPU, in this case, it is preferable to not install this option.
