Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Is it an ... Aero Cab? - That's right :D This flying mini cab will get you from A to B in no time!
Styled like a vintage Yellow Checkers Cab this small plane with its worn and distressed design looks not only cute, but it is highly navigable, and has some nice features that make it truely adorable:
* Lights switch on automaticaly once you get seated
* Propeller rotates with a convincing sound and emits puffs of smoke once you start the plane
Easy and fun to fly!
Note: The pack includes TWO makes:
* one that is 'fly by owner only' (if you want to keep it rezzed, but not stolen) and
* one that is temporary (= once the avatar disembarks the plane derezzes) and can be used by anybody (so go, invite your friends to a cruise accross the sims)
Howto Fly
----------
1) Find a spot where you are alowed to rezz objects (31 prims have to be available) and rezz the '!:PanTek:! - AeroCab' for yourself or if you want to let a friend fly the '!:PanTek:! - AeroCab * Temp'
2) Sit in the plane (left click sit, or right click, and choose 'Board'). Same for the temporary plane; - and the lights switch on by themself.
3) Type 'start' into open chat.
The propeller starts rotating with sound and puffs of steam, and the plane reacts to the left/right arrow keys.
4) Increase the throttle with the 'Pg Up' key (increment by 10%) and the plane starts to taxi.
Decrease the throttle with the 'Pg Dn' key and the plane stops again.
Bring your plane into starting position.
5) Increase the throttle to 40% for take off. Control the elevators with the 'forward/backward' arrow keys ('backward' swings the elevetors upward and thus the plane, 'forward' gives the plane a downward orientation)
6) Leaving the throttle at 40% gives you a good cruising speed. If you want to make more daredevilish things (like rolls and loops) you will have to experiment with a throttle increase above 40%.
7) To land direct the plane to a landing spot, decrease the throttle appropriately, taxi on ground with 10%.
To stop the plane say 'stop' in open chat. The propeller and plane will halt.
8) Once you stand up the plane will stay rezzed, - the temp version for guests will disapear when left unattended. You do not have to take them back into your inventory, because they are 'copy' and you can always rezz new ones.

** I hope you will have many hours of joy with this plane. The uttermost care has been put into the modeling and scripting. It has been extensively used and tested in multi-sim cross country flights, but due to SL lag no vehicle can be made 100% reliable.
Happy flying, Pan.
