Ocean Stations for Multiplayer Use

File Description:
I've produced this scenery to provide all of the Ocean Stations I know about in the 1950's and 1960's. There is a Coast Guard ship on station (painted in the colors of the USA), an NDB to give you a bearing to the ship, a way to contact the ship using voice (you can get your position relative to the ship this way), and a DME for distances further than the limited 30 NM FS ATC gives you (normal communications would reach about 100 NM). You can also get a weather report, and if you are a seaplane you can be cleared to land. If you are a landplane, I guess this would constitute permission to ditch... I want to give a big thank you to Mitsuya Hamaguchi (hama) for graciously supplying the ship used in this scenery. This version uses scenery ships, which will not disappear in multiplayer. There is only a US ship, however. For the AI ship version (with ships of several countries) download OceanStations.zip instead.
