Hi Hardy,

well, I am a bit concerned, because I have not found any problem with the panel. You can open the overhead panel with Shift+5 on the 2D panel. Inside the virtual cockpit, the overhead panel is not modelled, or lets say rather not working.

Sorry Roberto no chance on my pc,
 i get the message YLF50_Overhead.Gau could not loaded. Therefor the plane with the main panel starts but not the overhead panel. i have xp home edition and fs9 installed. All other panels works well. Is there a download page where i can get the panel as a extra file??

Well,

I checked the installer, and the file is in it. The file should be installed in the main Gauges folder. If you find it there, you have a system error, and not a missing file. I am sorry at the moment I cannot help more.

Robert - no-one is saying it is not there - it is just that FS9 will not load it (at least for some of us). I have tried all the usual fixes in case it is an FS2002 gauge but none of them are working. There are scarcely any alternative panels for the model so I think I will continue to use the default LJ panel for the time being.

Okay it was not clear for me from the message ;) Well, I do not know for sure. I had FS9.0 and FS9.1 and I did not have problem with either :s

This is only an idea, but maybe you could try. The package includes a file called FSSound.dll Many panels use it, and sometimes it causes problems because it is a very old developed one. You should try to add it to the game cfg (C:\Docs and settings...\User\Appsdata...\MS...\FS9\), as

[oldmodules]
FSSound.dll=1

Maybe it helps.

Hello Robert, your tip was right. After changing the game.cfg the panel works as it should. So god to have people with a big aknowledgement in the company.
See you in the sky. Thank you
