This package contains the additional textures for the SA315B Lama HB-XTM operated by BOHAG, Switzerland, for the FSHELI SA315B Lama V3.0 (required, payware, EUR 15.00, USD 19.50) The original package contains one animated model created in Abacus FSDS Pro 2, one set of reflective textures, 2D and 3D panel and custom made gauges and a custom sound system with realistic start-up and shut-down.The panel also uses some default gauges (not included). The equipment of the Lama is very accurate and gives a realistic feeling inside and outside the cabin. It contains also accurate flight dynamics (in the limitations of the FS2004), tested with real world pilots. Works also in FS2002.This helicopter feautures:Passenger flights;Sling cargo:net,cow rescue,pylon,concrete,cross bars,aggregate; Fire fighting with a bamby bucket, Winch operations.

Metro Oakland Int'l (KOAK) with Active Crosswind Runways

File Description:
A high spec AFCAD2 for the default FS2004 Metro Oakland Int'l Airport (KOAK). This afcad has been built from scratch using FAA Charts, various aerial photographs and information from the Airport Website. All runways feature real life lengths/widths and include overrun areas. All taxiways are named and all aprons are reworked to be as real as possible according to photos. All gates are named and have airlines assigned to them. As per real life, only Southwest Airlines will use Terminal 2, all other airlines being allocated to Terminal 1. The Fedex and UPS aprons are represented and can accomodate up to 20 cargo aircraft. The final parking area is random GA parking to the north of the airport. Overflow parking is also available for rush hour periods. This airport now features a tower view and also upgraded night and approach lighting. Finally, by using the crosswind runway technique, runways 9L/27R, 9R/27L and 11/29 can all be used simultaniously for take-off and landing. Runway 15/33 is closed as it is not used in real life. Enjoy!!

API Manager

File Description:
API macros are old technology as far as FS scenery design is concerned. The new approach in FS2004 and beyond is quite different. It seems possible that scenery files using macros will not be supported in the next version of FS. Nevertheless there are many scenery designers who still use macros. I am one and I have a large collection of macros. I wanted a way to manage and categorize these macros. I also wanted to be sure that I could credit authors correctly when I use the results of their efforts. I wanted a way to keep information about object footprint and scale and I wanted to know ahead of time if I had missing textures for an object. Hence API Manager. Please be aware that this is a first release and there are likely to be things wrong. There are also some areas of the program which could be more user friendly. Please note that API Manager only works with api macros Requires dotNET framework version 2 from Microsoft. Support is available from www.scruffyduck.plus.com

Himalayas LOD9 Base Mesh, Volume 4 - Kashmir and Jammu

File Description:
Detailed terrain mesh of the Kashmir and Jammu Ranges, N30-39 E76-78. The files in this package are based on Shuttle Radar (SRTM) Version 2 data but with many of the void areas, especially the most significant sections, filled with elevation data generated from topographic maps by Jonathan de Ferranti. While Jonathan's work is unrelated to flight simulation he kindly gave me permission to compile his data for use in FS. The result is a wonderful improvement in detail and accuracy over any existing mesh file, freeware or commercial, based on SRTM or DTED data alone.

Due to the large area of the Himalayas I've compiled the source data as two separate series: the "Himalayan Peaks" series covers prominent mountains and ranges in higher detail and locally overrides any existing LOD9 terrain mesh. In addition, the LOD9 "base mesh" series, with LOD8 and LOD7 "buffer" mesh files, covering the entire Himalayas, is meant for those who do not yet have an add-on terrain mesh of these beautiful mountains.

The FAU had taked in charge a batch of 25 P-51Ds and the planes arrived to Montevideo the 12/04/50 after a ferry flight from Palmdale,California. In this flight FAU-255 was flew by Capt Rovira.This plane was sold with other five examplares to the Fuerza Aerea Boliviana the 15-09-60 and retired in 1977.The FAU F-51Ds were operated first by the “Agrupamiento de Caza”,called from 05/07/51 Grupo de Aviación N° 2(Caza)and then by the Grupo de Aviación N° 1(Reconocimiento Táctico).The F-51D flew his last mission under FAU colours the 08/14/59(Maj Mercader). Repainted by Daniel Nole.Original by Roger Dial(Flight One Software,Tim Dickens,Bruce Thorson,Jim Rhoads and Steve Small).In order to use these textures, you must already have the Sabre Vs MiG add-on installed in your FS2004 or CFS2 aircraft folder.

Boeing B-17G 'Little Patches'

File Description:
This is a repaint (textures only) for the Donationware B-17G Late from FighterTown Design Group. You can get it here for a great price!! www.donationware.net Thank you FDG for providing this great plane!! Special thanks go to Jarink, who is a repainter in IL-2/PF. Jarink was kind enough to send me his layered photoshop files of the Noseart that I used for these repaints. I also used his repaints as a guide for my repaints. This texture represents "Little Patches" one of the B-17G Flying Fortresses of the 91st Bomb Group, 8th Air Force. The 91th BG, one of the more famous groups in the Eighth Air Force. "The Ragged Irregulars" were based at Bassingbourn, England. "Little Patches" The name "Little Patches" was acquired after the aircraft's first combat mission with Lt William Major's crew when Frankfurt flak put many splinters through the ship. The damage was primarily cosmetic but the skin required numerous small aluminium patches prompting Lt Major to name the ship.
