This is an update for FSX of the Premier Aircraft Design C295. I have redone the 2D panel using a picture of the VC; I have added the scrape points and the rest of the wheels; changed the HUD; and updated the flight dynamics.

Unzip to a folder of your choice.  Copy the aircraft to the main FS airplanes folder.  Copy the effect to the main FS effects folder, no need to overwrite if already there.

The extra autopilot can be removed by remarking out // the last gauge in the main panel in the panel.cfg file.

 [Reference Speeds]
flaps_up_stall_speed    = 120.0                  //Knots True (KTAS)
full_flaps_stall_speed  = 100.0                  //Knots True (KTAS)
cruise_speed            =316.00			//knots over the ground at 22,000 ft. (230 indicated)
max_indicated_speed     =390.00
max_mach=0.70

I changed the HUD because the original one was hard to see under most conditions.

As in the original PDF readme file it is best to use 15 degrees of flaps on take off.  Rotate at about 120 knots and expect to be climbing by 130 knots.

I don't know if is because of there being two autopilots that work in different ways, but you need to watch that the speed hold is doing its job some of the time; or you will stall.

On the 2D panel just to the left of the EICAS gauge there is a toggle to go back and forth through the screens; just under that toggle switch there is an invisible gauge that toggles a larger version of the EICAS gauge.  Why anyone would want an invisible toggle switch, I don't know.

Anyone:  You have my permission to use any of my updates with the following conditions:  One, you don't try to make money with them.  Two, you don't try to hurt, or take something from anyone by using them.
