File Description:
St Thomas is a town in Ontario around 12 miles south of London and less than 10 miles from the north shore of Lake Erie, with a population of just under 40,000. The airport (actually more of an airfield, as there are no scheduled flights) has three runways typical of an ex-military field, with one remaining hangar from RCAF flight training times in the 1940's, and the east-west runway now extended to just over 5,000 feet. The main presence at CYQS is a company in the crop seeding and spraying business over a wide area of Ontario; as a result there are several AT-802 planes based there which are included here as AI planes and also as parked scenery objects. To the west of the original apron area there are added taxiways to cater for a herd of new individual hangars wearing orange and white uniforms. There is fuel, runway lighting on 09-27, taxiway lights, visitor parking on the edge of the apron, and maintenance companies in the large hangars, plus a flight training group. A small terminal building sits quietly between hangars, waiting. Ditches along the road and around much of the airfield provide separation, which is why the fences are not continuous. I presume that the warning balls on the electricity cables were found to be necessary to persuade pilots not to land there; probably ski planes in winter, they tend to land anywhere so long as it has snow on it. This V1 version includes previous updates.

File Description:
Tandragee airfield Northern Ireland, home of "Kernan Aviation" for FSX SP2/Accel/P3D. by Vassilios Dimoulas v1.00 6-10-2014br>
Kernan Aviation (http://www.kernanaviation.co.uk/) operates a fleet of microlight aircraft out of a home strip about two miles north of the town of Tandragee, Northern Ireland. The field is as described in their site, a home strip. There is a 300m long gravel runway with just 3.5m width. The runway intersects a road and has a generally North-South direction (actually 355-175 magnetic). There is an equivalent length grass runway to the east just over the small stream where students practice grass tngs and emergency landings. The field sports a roomy hangar, a clubhouse and a briefing house, as well as outdoor seating and barbecue facilities.
The scenery uses photoreal background and is made to match the FTX Northern Ireland region by ORBX. It will work best with that region activated. Seasonal variations are included for all seasons, including hard winter with snow (January). In order however to cater for those not having this scenery I have provided alternative background bgls for two more options, i.e. ORBX Global textures and GEX textures. The alternative bgls do not have the hard winter option as this is a feature only of FTX NI. The scenery will have also no problem to fit with UTX and Global vector. All buildings were custom made from photos of the original. The scenery has been tested and found to work also in P3D v2.3.

| Black Cat Catalina PBY5/5Av1.1 for x-plane |
|
File Description:
This update includes improvements to the fuselage shape, addition of retractable wing floats using wheel farings, an improved but not custom panel, improved prop efficiency and more. The PBY Catalina is probably the best known flying boat with over 4000 produced by Consolidated aircraft and licensees. The Black Cat squadrons all done in flat black played havoc particularly for the Japanese in the Pacific. Fitted with radar, with a 15 hour endurance and 2800 mile range they hunted Japanese naval ships by night and bombed or torpedoed them by the hundreds up. There are 6 engine nacelles used in the model, 2 represent the 1200 HP radial engines driving the props, the others are jets with 5 lbs of thrust, 1 is used for the rear fuselage section, 1 is used for the wing pylon, 1 is used for the flare from the fuselage to the vertical stabilizer and the last is used for the forward observation and gunner space. Two are not used. Wing sections are taken up by the main wing and the support spars so there you go. The fuel tanks are used for the side gunner pods since these can be decorated separately. The plane flies very well and is stable as a rock. Takeoffs from water are quite easy as long as you don't dip a wing tip (no floats remember). The Black Cat squadron logo used in the paint scheme is courtesy of http://www.daveswarbirds.com/blackcat/logos.htm and is from the VP-71 Black Cat squadron.

| Anahim Lake CAJ4 in British Columbia, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Anahim Lake is around 55 miles east of Bella Coola by air, and clear of the deep and rugged valley that connects the two with a road that is over 75 miles long. The two are also linked by a daily Pacific Coastal flight. A further 150 miles east is Williams Lake (200 miles by road). The town of Anahim Lake is small, but renowned for numerous surrounding fishing lodges on the lakes and the enjoyment of "nature" in what is known as the Chilcotin Wilderness. The Anahim Lake airport is an odd one. It appears to have fallen into disuse over a period of years, but is now in the process of being upgraded, with some new hangars (though oddly situated, and with only dirt track taxiway access) and a recently completed terminal building. There is also a plan to upgrade the runway (lights etc, there are currently no runway or taxiway lights) and in general to greatly improve the facilities on offer. The only current airline to fly there is Pacific Coastal. The runway is just under 4,000 feet of asphalt aligned 13-31 and 75 feet wide. There used to be another runway which is still visible but is now unusable, gravel that has not been maintained for several years. The notes for Anahim Lake airfield in the Nav Canada manual warn of "Extensive float plane activity at Nimpo Lake to the south" and of "possible large animals within the airport perimeter". Nimpo Lake activity will follow in further posts.

| CYFD Brantford Municipal Airport, Ontario, Canada Version 1.0 |
|
File Description:
I decided to make Brantford a little more like the real thing. I also changed the landclass in the area to make it more realistic as this is where I live. Here are the changes I have made.
--
Modified the airport in AFCAD2 to have the aircraft park on either side of the large apron as they do in real life
, Corrected the runway lengths and added the connector between the runway ends at the north side of the airport
, Added AI Flightplans (see details below)
, Added a landclass update so that the area appears as it does in real life. There are now more farms around the airport as well as in the Burford area. The towns of Burford (my hometown) and Scotland are added, the Long Point Conservation Authority Forest is added to the west of Burford, and the Burford Golf Links appear beside the 403 (divided highway) to the north west of town.
--AI Flightplans
I tried to make the AI traffic as realistic as possible. I have training aircraft doing touch and goes 7 days a week. A few DC-3's have been restored at the airport so I have a DC-3 that flies for testflights on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 7am to 12:30pm. A learjet flies to Chicago on business days. It departs at 8am and arrives at 1:59pm. Also, a 182 flies up to Timmins on the weekends. It departs on Saturday at 9am and arrives home on Sunday at 11:36am.

| MAC Douglas DC-7C Package |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Thanks to a major investment in 1964 by some large Dutch shipping companies, the 1958 founded Dutch charter company Martin's Air Charter, proud owner of a fleet of two de Havilland DH-104 Dove, four Douglas C-47, and one Douglas C-54B, was able to purchase from KLM one Convair 340 and one Douglas DC-7C Seven Seas aircraft. On 27 February 1964 the DC-7C PH-DSO was delivered at Schiphol. In November 1964 and May 1965 PH-DSL and PH-DSC were also bought from KLM. A fourth one, PH-MAK which has not been included in this package, was acquired from Alitalia. The great advantages of the DC-7C over the much smaller C-54B were its pressurised fuselage, its huge flying range and its payload, which was almost twice the C-54's payload. It was a very popular aircraft among crew and passengers alike. From September 1968 till late October 1968, PH-DSL, all white with red crosses applied to the wings, fuselage and fin, flew on the Biafra airlift from the island of Fernando Po to Uli airstrip to provide humanitarian aid, on behalf of the Dutch Red Cross. With the exception of PH-MAK which was sold to Spain in 1967, MAC's DC-7C's soldiered on till late 1968/early 1969 when they were sold. These are textures only. You will need California Classic's FS2004/FSX Douglas DC-7C Base Pack and DC-7 Base Pack (available at http://www.calclassic.com/dc7c.htm). Repaints by Maarten Brouwer.

| Drivable and Flyable Grey Van |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
The Drivable and Flyable Grey Van is derived from a stationary Euro Van model by the following modifications / additions:
-land-vehicle instrument panel
-sound files
-FSX effects and custom exhaust smoke effects files
-modified .CFG and .AIR files
The vehicle is powered by a single aircraft piston engine with modified flaps to serve as a gear-shift. High gear allows the vehicle to speed up to 70 Kt on wide highways, while the low gear restricts the speed to about 12 Kt, but enables the vehicle to ascend steep slopes for exploring terrain scenery.
At speeds around 65-70 Kt (in gear 4), pulling back on the yoke will allow the vehicle to take off and fly at level-flight speeds around 70 Kt. This is an interesting way to go island-hopping, overcome insurmountable terrain obstacles, or cover larger straight-line distances without using the slew mode.
An autopilot with hold altitude and hold heading options is operable during flight only.
All dashboard instruments are fully functional, including the Radio-Magnetic Indicator (RMI) during flight. Needles 1 and 2 are activated if correct frequencies are entered in the ADF and VOR radios.
The vehicle has lights which are toggled by pressing [L]. Lights are associated with a very thin exhaust smoke effect. Thick exhaust smoke is toggled by pressing [I].
Driving vehicles through FSX scenery in different seasons presents a whole new aspect to the simulation. It allows us to imagine discovering innumerable places on the planet which are in practice beyond our reach.
I hope you enjoy!

| CH-47D Chinook Hellenic Army Aviation |
|
File Description:
Greece has 15 CH-47D. The 9 of them are upgraded CH-47C to CH-47DG in 1995. The other 6 are CH-47SD. In 1980 Greece ordered 10 CH-47C Chinook. The first arrived in Greece in 1983. The first Greek Chinooks formally were belonged to Iran but after the fallen of Shahs, they were given to Greece. In 1984 took place the first accident of the Greek Chinooks when the ÅÓ-006 had a heavy landing in Samos Island, during the transportation of a radar. After that the 006 was used as a source. The other 9 in the period of 1992-1994 were upgraded to D (Super D). After the Imia night, the Greek Government wanted to order 11 Chinooks helicopter, 9 SD and 2 SD for the Special Forces. Later 7 Chinooks were ordered. They have analogue cockpit and not glass cockpit in order to be same with the old DG. Also they have the better engine T55-L714A (4.868hp). This Chinook package is only for the FSX, but in case you want to fly it on your FS2004,then the majority of the Gauges will not be appeared. The package is complete. Features: model, Virtual Cockpit, new Panel, Sounds, rework Flight Dynamics, two Textures olive green and a dessert camo. The Original Model belongs to Mark Adams & Tom Woods, the reworked Flight Dynamics to Marwan Latif. The textures represent the olive green witch have now the Hellenic Chinooks and the dessert witch appeared until the upgraded of the CH-47C to CH-47DG.

| The Mill Stucky Scenery |
|
File Description:
The monumental mill Stucky complex is located on Venice's biggest island, the Giudecca.
The mill, a majestic terra cotta monument in neo-Gothic style, was designed in 1895 by architect Ernst
Wullekopf of Hanover for Stucky, a Venetian entrepreneur.
In its heyday the mill employed 1500 workers 24 hours a day, churning out bread, pasta and biscuits and
becoming a model of its kind due to the technology employed in its plants and its strategic location for
transportation by sea.
The complex was abandoned after it was forced to close in 1955 due to competition from mills on the mainland.
Various attempts had been made to redevelop the mill, the most recent of which had been underway for a number
of years; the mill was due to be reopened soon. Redevelopment of this huge complex, promoted by the Acqua Pia
Antica Marcia association of Rome, which co-owns the complex along with Banco San Paolo of Turin, was intended
to make it into a miniature city, a big multifunctional centre featuring a large luxury hotel, a shopping
centre, a conference centre and a hundred or so residential units of various sizes.
But on April 15, 2003 a major fire broke out and seriously damaged the remaining mill structures.
The future of the complex is uncertain, though the initial reactions are encouraging: Francesco Caltagirone of
Acqua Pia Antica Marcia has said that he intends to start the work all over again, for he has promised the city
of Venice that he would restore mill Stucky.
