| Lockheed VC-121A Constellation 'Columbine II' |
|
File Description:
FS2004 Lockheed VC-121A Constellation 'Columbine II'.
The Lockheed C-121A Constellation is the military
transport version of the L-749A Constellation.
Delivered on 22 November 1948, this particular aircraft
was soon converted to VC-121A VIP-transport. From
November 1952 till November 1954 this was the personal
transport of President Dwight D. Eisenhower. In 1952,
President Eisenhower was flying to Florida. The
Presidential plane was named 'Columbine II' (after the
official flower of Colorado, the First Lady’s home
state), but it was identified to flight controllers as
“Air Force 610” (from its tail number 48-610). However,
flying in the same general region was Eastern Airlines
Flight 610. The Eastern Airlines pilot overheard a
conversation between flight controllers and the
President’s plane, and for a moment thought the
references to flight “610” were meant for him. Although
nothing untoward happened, the government realized that
the confusion could have been tragic. Since then, any
Air Force aircraft with the President on board has been
referred to as “Air Force One.” Thus, the 'Columbine
II' was the first aircraft to be distinguished with
this designation, and she served President Eisenhower
for several years in this role.
This repaint is a much improved version of the one
issued in 2006. It has not been tested for the FSX
version of Abacus' Constallation but probably will
function there as well.
These are textures only. You will require Francisco
Sánchez-Castañer's great payware Lockheed L-749
Constellation, which can be obtained from Abacus'
Platinum Collection (see
http://www.abacuspub.com/default.html). Repaint (based
on Francisco Sánchez-Castañer's textures) by Maarten
Brouwer.

| North Vietnamese Government Ilyushin IL-18D Salon |

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.

Col. William G. Draper and Pilot Maj. William W. Thomas. This repaint has been tested in FS2004 only. However, it should be working in FSX also. You will require Team 749's (Manfred Jahn and Co) Lockheed L-749 Constellation package (LOCKHEED749.ZIP), the folder Lockheed_L749_0 (twin stack exhausts). Also required Team 749's Lockheed L-749 Constellation models update (749_MODELS_UPDATE.ZIP). Repaint by Maarten Brouwer, with a big thankyou to Eric Joiner for his permission to use his Columbine nose art.

Notes for Repainters
I've included layered paint kits in each package. I had to create these as the original releases did not include them.

| KNILM Douglas DC-3 |

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.

| Louisiana State Police Texture Updates Bell/Textron 430 |
|
File Description:
FS2004 Bell/Textron 430 Helicopter Louisiana State Police Updates
This package contains 2 revised texture sets for: N810SP & N918SP which are based here in Baton Rouge.
These fixes add the gold stripe on the tail and reflect the readjusted bottom
gold cheat stripe and a few more small tweaks that make the textures more accurate.
There is a well known member of the FS Community that is also painting up more LSP Bell430s.I believe that his will feature 430s from LSP Troop I,B and C.
Giving you all more N#'s to fly based on your preference of which Troop you want to fly for.So keep an eye out for more LSP Bell 430s in the near future!!
As always....Enjoy!!
**P.S.***
I am finishing up on a custom scenery to compliment these repaints.
The scenery will feature a large photoreal terrain area of the Independence Park area here in Baton Rouge wich houses on its grounds the following:
Louisiana State Police Headquarters,Louisiana Statepolice Training acadamy,various State Gov't offices such as Dept. of Motor Vehicles,Louisiana State Office of Emergency Managment,State fire Marshals Offices,e.t.c.....
The main Helipad is set up as a runway..rwys 9-27 which feature their own ILS systems with outermarkers,an NDB,Fictioal Airport Designation of 1LSP.Trees,Military Landing Zones,resturants,minmalls,gas stations along the perimeter,the main Fire House/Fire Station for that area.the Main branch of the Public Library and the big school bus transfer area on the west side.Street lights along the roadways,and much more.With minimal impact of FPS.
This will be a great add-on tool for the real LSP and AIr Med pilots who fly into this place everyday.Now you guys/gals can practice approaches in inclement weather conditions without fear of ruining a 5 million dollar chopper,all the while honing your IMC skills.
This scenery will integrate seemlessly with the upcoming release of KBTR v2.
The screenshots in this archive are from KBTRv2 Beta and the 1LSP beta sceneries!!
Keep an eye out at the BSMP forum for updates and preview screenshots... www.bsmp.co.nz
