This is nice - I added the NZ textures from nzcv580.zip to cccv580fsxsp2.zip which I found at flightsim. All I had to do was copy the texture.cfg from the Pac Sierrra texture into all the NZ texture folders, place the freight liveries in the 580F folder, set sim=cv58 and model=hd, F or T as appropriate in [fltsim.xx]. Used the sound from cv-580-sound.zip by Victor Merculief, also from flightsim.
In recent years I have kept away from jets and turboprops, because what used to be glorious sound is now an irritating noise, but I managed Tuuta - Wellington without getting too grouchy.

'Propliner' is actually short for 'Proper airliner, with big rumbly radials'
