| FinneyGround_Fences |
|
File Description:
This collection features the Gmax fencing objects and textures by Robert "Lt.Finney" Finnegan, and the Gmax Crosshairs_Plus created by myself, Gary "Gman" Mills.
In Gmax, I added 10m sections of 3 types of Rob's fencing to my Crosshairs_Plus to make it easier to see the centering point and the edge of the fence in their exact positions.
I call the results the Crosshairs_Plus_Fence ( CH+F ).
The fence sections for the Rwy12 sets were cloned from the fence sections of the CH+F in GMax, and moved in a computer aided perfect straight line to the right, from a perfectly centered CH+F.
They are as accurate as I can get them, the rest is in your calibration of your joystick.
With a little patience and a lot of joystick calibration, the set works pretty good.
They are not perfect, but they will do until something better comes along!
Enjoy!

| Caballococha, Peru |
|
File Description:
Caballococha, Peru - Actually I have found only one photo of the town along the Amazon River and it was only of the Plaza. This is a total impressionistic file. Creates the town, riverside features (Piers, Ferry landing) and a few features to the default airport.
New AFCAD created offering parking and a taxiway, plus two water start locations. Again totally fictious. BUT enjoy.
One thing about Caballococha is that it is along a highly navagatable portion of the Amazon and with the fantastic array of Watercraft available offers, I believe, unlimited simming possibilities.
I included the .XML file for rwy12, if you are into enhancing your own scenery...please do feel free to modify or add as desired. This scenery DOES require both LAGO FSE (Payware) and RWY12 available here at avsim) to work.
questions or comments PLEASE do e-mail me ... I will respond as rapidly as possible.

| Opa's Campground on Lake Texoma. |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Opa's Campground. A ficticious campground located on the shores of beatiful Lake Texoma on the Texas-Oklahoma border. Created with the EZ and RWY12 Object placing programs, the scenery is packed with eye candy and some unusual features including AI Helicopter rides, an AI Windsurfer and AI boats moving about the lake plus fireworks on the 4th of July. There is a landing strip at the campground for those who arrive by air and start locations for seaplanes and automobiles. Lago sound files are included for those who have the Lago FSE program (optional). The scenery is designed to be used with the default FS2004 setup - it is not compatible with Ultimate Terrain - USA. If you are seeking a great place to "get away" for some fun, this is it. Please unzip (using folders option) to a temporary folder and follow the simple installation directions.

| Armstrong Ontario; one airfield and two float bases |
|
File Description:
Armstrong CYYW airfield is 70 miles northeast of Thunder Bay, and close to Lake Nipigon. There isn't much of interest at the airfield by way of buildings (as there aren't many buildings!) and the only plane I saw was a fire fighting Canadaair CL 415. A basic airfield with one runway with lights and one without, and no maintenance. There is fuel, but it is locked up and not for sale.
The two float bases are 5 miles west (CJF6) and 10 miles southwest (CKN6) of Armstrong airfield. Lake Mackenzie is home to two companies, Armstrong Outposts (two Beavers) and Huron Air & Outfitters (an Otter and a Beaver) who both run fishing and hunting lodges. Wilderness North are further south on Lake Waweig, and I think they fly two Otters and a Beaver to their outpost camps. You need Ultimate Terrain, or there won't be any lakes!

| Oliver Pabst's LEPA Textures - 2005 remix |
|
File Description:
A year or so ago I created a texture fix for Oliver Pabst's award-winning scenery for LEPA - the airport at Son Jan Juan - Palma. After visiting there in FS9 I decided to bring a little more detail to the ground textures in order to make them more attractive. The existing apron textures are very grey - and these aren't!!
I also opened the new taxiway to the threshold for runway 24L (and opened both runways in the AFCAD, added jetways at the western terminal (module 1) and added a low-res surface bitmap for the roads etc leading to the terminal. If you're still using Oliver's scenery, you'll probably like this. If you aren't sure - I have some up-front pictures to help you decide.
Many thanks to Oliver for endorsing my previous tweak, I hope this one goes well too. Thanks for the scenery, Oliver!

| Coromandel Photoscenery Compilation *updated* |
|
File Description:
This is a compilation of the various addons developed for the Coromandel region of the North Island, New Zealand.
The basis of this scenery is the simply stunning Godzone Photoscenery developed by Robin Corn and the autogen created for it by Ian Warren. Their combined efforts have produced a wonderfully beautiful and realistic scenery for VFR flying. Lawrie Roache has produced some simply stunning renditions of the airports in the Coromandel area -
Thames (NZTH), Coromandel (NZCX), Pauanui Beach (NZUN), and Whitianaga (NZWT), which were created specifically to fit with the Coromandel Photoscenery by Robin Corn. Charl du Toit has finished and perfected the area with his adjustments to the photo-terrain.
This is simply a compilation (with permission) and re-release of the many fine sceneries these men have produced.
This updated version includes a newer version of the photoscenery and some bug-fixes.

| Hat Island CWHI in Nunavut, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This was a DEW line I Station on Hat Island; the island is around 4 miles square and just under 50 miles southeast of Jenny Lind Island. The station was closed in 1963 and has now been totally dismantled and removed, a fairly easy task given the size. The runway is still there and is a shade over 3,000 feet of gravel 100' wide. There are no lights, signage, or windsock. A North Warning System station was built in 1991 on the site of the I Station, just north of the runway. Most of these DEW line stations are not particularly impressive or even interesting. However, you can bet that any pilot flying regularly in the north along the coast knows where all these runways are, in case one of them suddenly becomes his favourite in the whole world just after the sudden silence.

| Repost of Dryden Regional CYHD in Ontario Canada |
|
File Description:
This repost is first to deal with some lighting problems on the runways (though I still couldn't get rid of the taxiway lights that head off across the grass) and also to provide the right AFCAD file.
Dryden is in northwest Ontario on the shore of Wabigoon Lake. The airfield is some five miles northeast of the town. It has two runways, one 2,000 feet long and sand, the other 11/29 and 6,000 feet of asphalt 150 feet wide. There is a terminal building, a hangar for Thunder Airlines, and some GA hangars at and near the western apron, and in the Summer there is a flock of fire-fighting Canadair CL415 amphibs at the eastern apron together with the Ministry of Natural Resources Ontario fire fighting headquarters establishment, accomodation, and maintenance facilities. Among others Bearskin Airlines fly there, a wonderful punning name.

| CYQV Yorkton Municipal Airport Saskatchewan Version 2 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Yorkton Municipal Airport is situated approximately three kilometers north of the City of Yorkton, Saskatchewan, Canada. The airfield was built in 1940 for the Royal Canadian Air Force, as a British Commonwealth Air Training Plan station. Today, only a few of the wartime buildings remain and only two of the orginal four runways remain in operation. The airport continues, however, as the prinicipal hub of general aviation services for the east-central region of Saskatchewan.
CYQV was constructed using GMAX and represents the airport as it was in the Summer of 2008. It includes custom models of all the buildings at the airport, runway signs, refueling facilites,garages, weather station, fencing and trees, and a rotating beacon. CYQV includes custom ground textures to replicate the decommissioned runways and taxiways.
Version 2 replaces the original lost in the AVSIM hack and includes a number of improvements (see readme).

| Diavik Diamond Mine CDK2 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
The Diavik Diamond Mine is located about 200 miles NE of Yellowknife in Canada's Northwest Territory. It a relatively new facility, having been begun production in 2003. The only means of access are by air or ice road. (If you are a James Bondian super villian plotting world domination, Diavik would be a great place for your secret underground headquarters.) This scenery is completely scratch built. In addition to the airstrip itself, I used Google Earth pics to create a photo ground texture of the adjoining facility. The buildings of the main processing complex are very simply modeled, as is the large open pit mine.
This scenery was designed for use with Ultimate Terrain and was not tested in the default scenery. (As far as I can tell, Ulimate Terrain does not affect the area around Diavik, so it should work OK.) It may or may not work in FSX.
