   and follow the installation instruction.
   When you are prompted for Combat Flight Simulator installation folder,
   select the folder of your CFS2 installation, e.g. C:\CFS2 



NOTE:
Installation program only copies all necessary files into right folders. 
It doesn't create any additional files ( e.g. on your Desktop or Start/Programs )

If you still don't trust it, you can point the installation program into 
some temporary folder, e.g. C:\Temp
and then manually copy these files into your CFS2.


About the real plane:
---------------------

Avia B-534 is a Czechoslovak biplane fighter. The first prototype 
flew in 1933. Above 500 planes were delivered to the Czechoslovak 
Air Force during years 1935 - 1939. In pre-WWII period it was the

wing was a place for 6x  10kg bombs or for 4x 20kg bombs.




About the CFS2 model:
---------------------
Avia B-534 for MS Flight Simulator was created in FS design Studio. 
Model features 7 multiresolution sub-models with different comlexity
 - this means, that you will see a simplified model at longer distance.  
You can utilize this effects especially when you see more planes 
at the same time - e.g. during online flying ( you have more FPS 
- frame rate per second )

propeller, rotating wheels and pilot in cockpit. 

Detailed 3D virtual cockpit has working gauges and animated pedals,
