| VVCR Cam Ranh Airport |

File Description:
Cam Ranh is currently a fast-growing beauty spot and tourist area on the Vietnamese coast. In May 2004, Cam Ranh airport (VVCR) opened to commercial traffic, initially only serving domestic traffic but international flights will commence in 2005. The airport was once a massive US Air Force base, but was later used as a base for Russion spy plane activities.
This scenery adds this "missing" airport to Flight Simulator, but much is based around satellite views of the airport when the US were spying on the Russian base and other historical information and it may not accurately reflect the airport as it is today. Furthermore, my capabilities at scenery design are limited and restricted to scenery objects available through the Rwy12 scenery creation programme.
You do NOT need to download and install the full 45 MB Rwy 12 Object Placer programme, which is for the designers and not the end user.
Some of the scenery objects will appear without any extra downloads, but to get the greatest benefit from this scenery, you may optionally download following files, which should be installed according to the instructions within this download and not as described in their own download archive:
Level 2 objects
rwy12-lvl2.zip (Israel Roth and Seev Kahn/John Hinson),
Level 3 objects
jw_rwy12.zip (Shehryar Ansari),
tl_rwy12.zip (Todd Lucas) ,
ford_transit_collection.zip (S Legg),
hgrrwy12.zip (ESDG), and
ga-hangers_lib_for_rwy12.zip (S Legg)
Also included with this scenery are two EditVoicepack files which may be imported to that programme so that the controllers will be heard referring to "Cam Ranh".

| WASF Fak-Fak |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Googly scenery for WASF Fak-Fak, in Irian Jaya (Western New Gunea),
Indonesia - a small domestic airport that Microsoft managed to omit from Flight
Simulator 2004. These scenery files add the runway, apron, taxiways, buildings
and other airport features so that you and your "AI" traffic can land, taxi,
park and take off in a realistic manner.
Little information is available on the services operated - flight plans are
available for Lion Airlines showing two flights per week operated on their behalf
by Wings Abadi Dash 8 aircraft. But it is known that Merpati Nusentara also serve
the airport with Twin Otters. If you are using the Lion Airlines flight plans
for Winter 2006, you must change the airport's co-ordinates as detailed in the readme.txt file
because the co-ordinates given there will cause the aircraft to aim for a point
on the wrong side of the equator in the middle of the sea!
There is no lighting at this airport, and few navigational aids. However, I have
added a missing NDB nearby (FA, 380.0).
The scenery does not purport to be ultra-accurate. The quality of the satellite
imagery at Google Earth is poor, but a number of photographs and other information
has enabled this airport to be depicted reasonably accurately. However the added
airport features, such as buildings, are built from default Microsoft objects
and add-on libraries so will not look exactly like the real thing.
You are not obliged to download and install any additional scenery libraries,
but to enjoy this scenery in its entirety, you may wish to. It will work fine,
with or without.
An editvoicepack file has been included for the airport to help you embarrass
yourself in front of others when flying.

| Lions Air Dornier 328 EXECJet |
|
File Description:
With this I took some liberties... Lions Air Flies the Dornier and on their turbo
prop version has what I think is quite a beautiful paint scheme... I applied (to the
limits of my basic Microsoft Paint program) a close representation of this. Since
they do not..to my knowledge fly the Exec Jet version... I changed a couple of
things.. the LIONS AIR on the engine cowls is not quite the right size - and the
Lion's Head is not quite the same - this is because I haven't yet found a clipart
that is close enough to modify (However am still searching and will upload something
closer when I find it, which of course will change the Cowl display.. and then I will correct the size. I included a photo of the prototype in the file so you can see for yourself. Also.. if you use a panel that includes cockpiut and cabin views like I do(I use the panel from the Fokker F100 -- hey, its close and like I would ever see the flight deck of a real 328 anyway LOL) I have included a .jpg of the Exec Cabin... just convert to a .bmp and paste over the cabin view in your favorite panel... Textures only... you will need to download the Mike Stone package... pmstone.com
One last item... will also attempt to smooth out the curve... toward the center of
the aircraft... this is because the fuse is in two sections... but... hey, am still
an extreme novice at this

| CYVQ - Norman Wells - Northwest Territories, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Norman Wells is the last of a series of airfields that are along (or close to) the Mackenzie River and in the Northwest Territories. It is 290 miles southeast of Inuvik and just 40 miles northwest of Tulita. The town growth was accelerated by the discovery of oil in the 1930's and the building of a small refinery in 1937, which is included here; there are now around 840 folks living in the town. The airport is adjacent to the town and has just under 6,000 feet of asphalt runway. North Wright Airways is headquartered there and this is reflected in the AI, which is for all of the newly-posted Mackenzie River postings. There is also helicopter AI, Canadian North, First Air, and there are GA flights. There is a mandatory frequency and the Norman Wells tower is manned 24 hours a day so you will follow atc instructions. In real life the terminal is on two levels; this steep change in terrain level is not possible to achieve in FS9 so although I made it as a two level terminal (ready for the FSX version?) it is here modified into a single level building. There are several "taxiways" which lead to the runway but are without hold short markings. These have been shown but are not included as AI routes. The helicopters presumably hover-taxi to the runway across grass (and snow) in real life; the AI helicopter will taxi on wheels. Note that at mixed-use airports planes and helicopters all follow the same rules of procedure.

| North Vietnamese Government Ilyushin IL-18D Salon |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
The Ilyushin Il-18 is a four turboprop engined passenger aircraft for medium-long range. The first Kuznetsov NK4 powered flight was on 4 Jul 1957 from Moscow-Khodynka airport, the first Ivchenko AI-20 powered flight on 17 Sep 1958. This plane was produced in series for 12 years and achieved great popularity due to the favourable load factor. The main operator was Aeroflot, but the IL-18 proved a popular plane with airlines behind the former "Iron Curtain". In view of possible peace negotiations during the war in Vietnam, the North Vietnamese leadership was in need of a long-haul VIP transport aircraft. The Soviet Union delivered an IL-18D Salon in 1968 registered 195 to the Democratic Republic of Vietnam as an "80th Birthday present" for President Ho Chi Minh. A bit early perhaps since he was born on 19 May 1890; he died at the age of 79. For a while the aircraft displayed on both sides of the nose the call sign BH-195; BH stood for Bac Ho (= Uncle Ho) and 195 stood for his Birthday. The VIP IL-18D was re-registered VN-B195 in 1973. In August 1976 she was transferred to Hang Khong Viet Nam though still wearing the original pre-1973 "Aeroflot style" cheatline. The last landing of this IL-18D Salon was on 15 Dec 1989 at Hanoi after which she was written from use. The registration was cancelled on 31 Dec 1989. The aircraft has been scrapped since. These are textures only. You will need the FS2004 Aeroproyecto Ilyushin IL-18D (aeroproyecto_il18d.zip; available at Flightsim.com) by Edgar Guinart Lopez. Repaint by Maarten Brouwer.

File Description:
VARIG B.737-341 PP-VOE C/N 24276-1645
Another of the original models B.737-341 builded by Boeing for VARIG(17 exemplaires builded). The 341 is the logic sucessor of the 241, the series 200 model,still in service for some routes. VARIG fleet had differents variant of the Boeing 737'(B.737-2C3Adv,B.737-241,B.737-2K9,B.737-2Q8,B.737-219,B.737-33A,B.737-36N,B.737-3K9,B.737-341,B.737-3Q8,B.737-4YO,etc)and the planes are the workhorse of the route systeme of the airline.The main technical center is located a Rio de Janeiro Antonio
Carlos Jobim(Galeao)with the most big hangar maintenance in South America.
Main hubs are Sao Paulo Guarulhos, Rio de Janeiro A.C.Jobim(Galeao),Porto Alegre Salgado Fihlo.I have included a serie of 90 Flights to the main national and international destinations,all
served with 737 and the timetable and numbers flights are the rights one of this year 2004.
Destinations are revised and actualised like in the reality(Curitiba,Porto Alegre, Ponte aereo=Rio Santos Dumont-Sao Paulo Congonhas,Foz do IguazĂș,Manaus,Natal,Recife,Salvador,La Paz,Cordoba,etc.
Many flights are corrected to be acomplished with the 737 and not the Douglas DC-10(out of service by VARIG long time ago and remplaced with the MD-11,this last also to be tasked in the future to fly only cargo).
Today only two DC-10 fly cargo services with VARIG Logistica.
Also included a new complete revised AirFile for the 737-300 type(17-04-04).

| Savoia Marchetti SM.79 Sparviero, SERVICE PACK 1 (v.02) |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
It was the most important Italian bomber of World War II, this tough three-engined aircraft established a reputation that contrasted with most Italian weapons of the day, and it was flown with courage and skill. SM.79s served widely in the normal bombing role, but it is as a land-based torpedo bomber that the type deserves its place in military aviation history, being regarded by many as one of the finest torpedo bombers of the war. In spite of its cumbersome appearance and outdated construction, with an internal provision for 2,750 lb (1,250 kg) of bombs, supplemented by under fuselage rack for a torpedo, the S.M.79 was a rugged, reliable multi-role medium bomber which did quite a bit of damage in the face of heavy opposition. About 1,300 production models were built over a nine year period. The SM.79 had a distinctive 'hump' on the upper forward fuselage, which housed both the fixed forward-firing heavy machine-gun and the dorsal gunner's position. Its appearance earned the aircraft the nickname 'Gobbo Maledetto' ('Damned Hunchback'). During the last phases of the war the surviving SM.79s were converted into various versions of utility transports and used in that role until 1952.
This "Service Pack" contains:
-4 UPGRADED + 1 NEW Hi-Res GMax models (5 different versions) feature the usual moving parts, such as all flight controls, props pitch and leading edge flaps.
-Eleven (11) different liveries (6 R.A., 1 A.N.R., 1 I.C.A.F., 1 Post-war A.M.I., 2 Spanish Nationalist Air Force).
-Revised SM.79M CFG & AIR files, New SM.79Bis CFG & AIR files
-Revised Sounds, Gauges & Effects
VC only. This plane was developed for FS9, but it works (it seems without problems) either in FSX. Created by Manuele Villa & ItalianWings, February 2008. Installation instructions included.

| KNILM Douglas DC-3 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Re-upload. FS2004 KNILM Douglas DC-3. Before and after World War II KLM was a major European operator of the Douglas DC-3. The first DC-3 entered service with KLM in October 1936. This made KLM the first operator of the DC-3 in Europe. 22 others would join before Nazi-Germany invaded the Netherlands on 10 May 1940 and occupied the country for five dark years. The KLM DC-3's served destinations in Europe as well as the famous 'Indies-route' from Amsterdam to Batavia (Dutch East Indies; nowadays Jakarta, Indonesia). Those DC-3's present at Amsterdam-Schiphol, if not destroyed by bombs, were impounded by the Germans. Other DC-3's that happened to be
elsewhere out of reach of the enemy found their way either to the Dutch East Indies where they served on the KNILM routes to various destinations in Far East Asia and Australia until the Japanese invasion in February 1942, or to England where they were leased by BOAC for the London (later Bristol) to Lisbon service. PH-ALP 'Pelikaan' ('Pelican') ended up in the Dutch East Indies, was bought by KNILM (Royal Netherlands Indies Airways) as PK-AFV. On her last flight on 3 March 1942 from Batavia to Broome, Australia, Japanese Zero fighters shot at PK-AFV and set her alight. The aircraft succesfully crash-landed on the beach at Carnon Bay, Australia. The repaint of PK-AFV is based on the templates Mark Beaumont created for the MAAM-SIM Douglas DC-3 (passenger version), which were based on Jan Visser's original textures. These are textures only. You will require MAAM-SIM's great donationware Douglas R4D/DC-3 package. Repaints by Maarten Brouwer.

| Frozen Canadian & USA Rivers & Lakes Revision |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This "freezes" all lakes and rivers for winter flying and means they can be landed on with skis or wheels; it is meant for low level flying rather than high level jet flights. This edition is complete in itself and now really covers all of Canada and parts of the USA along the border, including large parts of Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota, and Montana. It is reversible with an "untick" in the FS scenery library. The revision is the addition of frozen sea in the area of Baffin Island (where I and Sid & Pete have recently posted all of the Baffin Island airfields) as I missed this area last time. Sorry about that. I have spent some time making sure that the sea and the inlets along the coast in the south do not get frozen too, and also some of the lakes that are close to the coast and rarely get cold enough to freeze over. The Great Lakes do not usually totally freeze, but this is an either ON or OFF modification and partial freezing cannot be convincingly simulated, so I went for total ice. Along the north shore I went for the peak of the winter with sea ice all the way to the permanent polar cap; this is not totally realistic as there is usually a partially open lead along the coast, but as with the Great Lakes...... It will work without Ultimate Terrain, but as UT is what gets all the lakes and rivers there and in the right place (except in the far north) it is obviously much improved with UT. The pics show Rockcliffe in the winter with the frozen Ottawa River for real and in FS for comparison; without UT the river would not be in the right place.

| Kuujjuarapik CYGW in northern Quebec, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Kuujjuarapik is in northern Quebec at the southern end of Hudson Bay, 90 miles east of James Bay and on the north shore of the Great Whale River; Kuujjuarapik means Small Great River in Inuktitut. Once again the Hudson Bay trading post that opened (in 1820) was the catalyst for the establishment of first a seasonal encampment and then the beginnings of a town in the late 1930's.
The two adjacent villages that now form the town have a total population (mainly Cree and Inuit) of around 1,500. When the Quebec hydo-electric project was under construction in the early 1980's a large portion of the Inuit population voted to move to a new settlement called Umiujaq (my post) 100 miles to the north.
The airport is to the west of the town, between the town and the sea. The gravel and sand runway (which I have made as gravel as there is no convincing way to mix the two) is 5,500 feet long, 150 feet wide, and aligned 17/35, which is approximately parallel to the coast. There is fuel available, both 100LL and JetA, delivered by truck. The AI included here is for Air Inuit and Wasaya, with Air Inuit making three flights per day plus a fourth flight by the Air Inuit Twotter C-GNDO that is based at the airport, and private flights by various aircraft. Yes, there really is a golf course to the south of the airport, and the last thing to note is that Kuujjuarapik has a mandatory radio frequency and that taking into consideration the scheduled flights I have included the tower radio frequency that makes this a controlled airport in FS9.
