Installation Directions ¹

Spoiler

Use CurseForge/OverWolf App (currently does not install dependencies)

I take no part, nor am I interested in maintaining the CKAN mod metadata for my mods. CKAN is a great mod for those that can't use zip tools. If you are having issues please let the CKAN people know and refer to the CKAN thread. My support of CKAN extends as far as me checking the checkbox in Spacedock when I upload. Beware, CKAN can really mess up though it tries very, very, very hard not to.

Amazed to see you kept this flying. Looking forward to trying it (and did you ever got the IVA working?)

@MacLuky thank you - all props go to cBBp and well, you. +1

A very simple IVA is working - currently 5 crew (IIRC) but there are seats for 7.

Would love to see this with more props, but props are beyond my current skillset (and available time)
