This is a fictional Golden Mountain Dog Solutions repaint of the superb "Japan Coast Guard Complete Pack 2008" Bell 412 helicopter simulation for FS2004 created by Nobu Aki using Jordan Moore's open source development kit. It requires prior installation of the hc412_jcg412_2008 package available from Hovercontrol and has only been tested in FS2004 ACOF.

INSTALLATION:

STEP 1:
Download and install the "JCG412 Complete Pack 2008" from Hovercontrol.

Back up the aircraft.cfg file installed with the JCG412 package.

STEP 3:

Golden Mountain Dog Solutions textures originally created by Randy L. Whynacht for the HC412 Bell 412 helicopter simulation by Jordan Moore and his team at Hovercontrol.com using the HC412 paint kit. Modifications necessary to bring them to life on Nobu Aki's JCG models would not have been possible without his kind, extensive, and untiring assistance AND his beatiful nose art!

To say many thanks are due to Nobu Aki for his help with creating these textures would be a serious understatement!
