The only thing that bugs me is that it aparently requires Active Sky according to the readme

INSTALLATION GUIDE - SR-71 Blackbird for FS2004

Extract all the files into your FS2004 root folder. The necessary sub-folders will be created automatically.


1) SOUNDS : The model is set up by default to use the Boeing 737 sounds.

2) ANIMATIONS :

Crew canopies and crew arms : shift-E

Braking parachute : spoiler (/) key. The chute will only be visible if the mainwheels are on the ground.

Inlet Spikes : these move on the flaps key and will enable higher speeds to be achieved at high altitudes.

Jetpipe Nozzles : these flare in and out automatically on the throttle function.

3) FLIGHT MODEL - High Mach numbers are achieveable at high altitudes but we do recommend having the aircraft controlled by the autopilot as manual control is quite difficult at these speeds.

4) ALTERNATIVE TEXTURES FOR TAIL MARKINGS -

Directions for adding the alternative rudder markings.

If you want to add the alternative rudder which has the most recent Beale AFB 'Tactical' style markings you should copy the folder titled - texture.17958 and rename the copy as texture.17967 once you have done that, add the new rudder textures to the new (17967) folder and overwrite when prompted.

Then copy and paste the following text below the last aircraft (17958) description in the aircraft.cfg file.

description=First flight 3rd August 1966. Last flight 14th February 1990. Was the first SR-71 to fly into the persian Gulf region during an 11 hour mission from Kadena AB Japan. Was the last SR-71 to depart Det 4 RAF Mildenhall, UK. Reactivated during 1995 and overhauled for use with by the 9th RW Det 2 at Edwards AFB, then retired again during 1998, monetary constraints appear to be the only adversary she can't outrun...\n\n\n
