This is a Altitude Callout gauge & sound pack for Thomas Ruth's new Boeing 727 packs. 

This pack was created from the Boeing Callouts for FSX package by Matt Smith with original files from Stefan Liebe, Doug Dawson, Jimmy Foong(Sounds).

Overview:
The Altitude Callouts have been tested thoroughly with Thomas Ruth's new freeware 727 package and work with very good accuracy based on Radar Altimiter Gauge readings. You can also adjust the Approach Height Minimums on the Radar Altimeter Gauge to receive the exact AGL(Above Ground Level) "Approaching Minimums/Minimums" Callouts for ILS and most other types of instrument approaches. The modifications I made to the original files were to allow this pack to be used specifially for the 727 or any other Boeing type jet in FSX while not interfering with other types of Callout Sound packs used in root FSX/Sound folder. These files will work with all versions of Thomas Ruth's 727. 

Installation: 

1. Open your Simobjects/Airplanes folder in FSX and locate Tom_B727-100/Tom_B727-200/Tom_B727-200ADV /Panel folders. Then open the panel config using notepad and add the following lines:

//Panel config entries

gauge77=CALLOUT_SmallJets!CALLOUTAPPMIN,  0,0,0,0

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The gauge numbers should line up with the original panel config edit but if not, edit these new gauge numbers to run in sequence with the original ones.

2.
Gauges: 
Open the Gauges folder and move all 3 gauge files into the FSX Gauge folder. If you already have these gauges, overwriting will not harm the originals as they are the exact same. 

3. 
Sound Folder. 
Open the Sound folder and move the folder named CalloutB into your FSX/Sound folder. 

That is it!
