******************************** Tu-154b v.3.1 **********************************

Welcome to world of Russian Aviation!

Before use of model, you MUST read documentation: Docs/tu154eng.pdf - in English, Docs/tu154rus.pdf - in Russian.
There are Project Tupolev docs in Docs/PT_Docs for SVN version of model. If you want to get more information about plane and PT model for MSFS sim,
you should read it.

This is a very complex model, and it's not intended for beginners.

******************************** Installation ***********************************

Unpack archive into $FGROOT/Aircraft/tu154b folder; under UNIX, you can place model into your home dir and create
symlink.

Install additional liveries: See tu154/Model/Liveries/README.txt.

Prepare AI model. When you go to multiplay mode, and another player will use Tu-154b model, your computer will stall for long time
(from 20 s to 2 min) and drop fps. To avoid this, low-poly model was created for AI/MP mode. It is included in FlightGear distributable.
There are liveries support for AI models, so you will see planes of another players with right liveries. For low-poly model to work with it,
install (or create symlink) your additional liveries into $FGROOT/AI/Aircraft/tu154b just as for regular model.

Install additional navaids: See tu154/Docs/Navaids.txt.

This model intend for FlightGear version 3.0 and devel. It does not support old FlightGear version (1.9.1, 2.0 or late), and
you would not replace FDM file. If you want use older FG version, you may download appropriate version from
http://yurik.flightgear.ru/tu154b-release/.
Last stable FlightGear version tested: 2020.3.17.

For our foreign friends, Don Lavelle has create set of textures. It translate most of signes in cabin to English, taking care about right terminology.
