| "Himalayan Peaks" LOD10 Mesh, Volume 3 - Namcha Barwa |
|
File Description:
Highly detailed terrain mesh of the Namcha Barwa area, N29°-31° E94°-96°. 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, a LOD9 "base mesh" series covering the entire Himalayas will be available for those who do not yet have an add-on terrain mesh of these beautiful mountains.

| McKenzie Airfield, Richmond, South Africa |

File Description:
Have you ever visited the "Hangar Cafe"? Great place to have a meal and get lost in conversation with fellow aviators and aviation lovers.
McKenzie Airfield does not appear in the default FS2004, neither is the town of Richmond included. This package will add a custom (Gmax) made McKenzie Airfield (AWK5), Richmond, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa with photoreal textures and ground textures. The included Landclass file will also add the town.
The small airfield as well as the adjacent McKenzie Plant-hire yard, has been recreated with custom true to life models and photoreal textures. McKenzie airfield is also home to the "Hangar Cafe" and an ex-SAAF Bosbok. The runway is not too challenging, just keep the aircraft in the middle and away from the trees right next to the runway. All the electrical high-wires have also been included in the scenery as it plays a prominent role in the look and feel of the airfield as has the flower beds.
The grass runway is aligned 11/29 and only 800m long.

| KNUQ - Moffett Federal Airfield - Mountain View - California (USA) |

File Description:
Known originally as Naval Air Station Sunnyvale after its christening in 1933, Moffett Field was renamed in 1942 in honor of Rear Admiral W.A. Moffett a founder of the Navy's Lighter than air program. By this time the LTA program had been reduced to the use of smaller dirigibles for scouting and anti-submarine work but the airfield remained immensely important as a fixed-wing facility due to it's strategic location between Seattle and San Diego. The Ames Research Center established before the war also blossomed into a major post-war aeronautical research and development center due in part to its highly advanced wind tunnel facilities. After the Second World War, Moffett Field developed into a West Coast hub for Patrol and ASW operations against encroaching Soviet missile boats. The NASA presence at Moffett began as early as 1939 with the establishment of the Aames Research Facility and evolving into the sophisticated R&D complex it is today. This particular scenery package attempts to represent the base more or less as it is today.
