| This is Part 3 of a 4 part series for flying the Project Tupolev Tu154M Aircraft for Flight Simulator FS2004.

It is meant as a quick guide to get you flying routes with the aircraft without being frustrated by hours of not being able to operate simple systems like the GPS navigation system, autopilot, and steps through a takeoff from cold and dark, right up to inserting the STAR before decent into your destination. It is not a replacement to the Manual, but can be a bit of a boost to get you in a position to absorb more advanced aspects than simply starting the engines up (which is quite envolved). The next parts will be posted as I create them over the coming weeks.
