File Description:
Washington State Ferries on Puget Sound. This enhancement places several simple, but visually accurate AI Ferries making trips on Puget Sound to and from Seattle, Bremerton, Bainbridge Island and a few other docks which Microsoft provided. If you have been to this area, you know how important Ferry traffic is and seeing them in motion helps bring the scenery alive. The model is of the Washington State Ferry "Klahoia" by Dave Robbins which I have modified slightly to work as an AI craft. This enhancement has been tested on the default FS2004 scenery only. A few technical notes are included if you wish to experiment with adding AI Ferries to your own scenery. All necessary files are included. Please unzip to a temporary folder and follow the very simple installation instructions. Compiled for your flying enjoyment by David "Opa" Marshall.

| Washington AI Floatplanes And Other Goodies |
|
File Description:
Five files to enhance your state of Washington adventures.
1) Adds AI floatplanes to 3 airports in the San Juan Island chain and two airports near Seattle with AI floatplane traffic to and from each airport utilizing Holger Sandmans AI Floatplane kit (ai_float.zip required as well as several floatplanes. See readme for details). Included is FSE scenery for each airport. Airports used are WN19, 83Q, W39, W33, and 21H.
2) Sound files using FSE for Richard Goldsteins Orcas Island scenery.
3) AI traffic of San Juan Airlines summer schedule using Ron Days SJA C208 and C208B textures.
4) Adds general aviation AI to the San Juan Island area at KFHR Friday Harbor, S31 Lopez Island, and 74S Anacortes Island and includes FSE scenery for all three airports.
5) Adds an FSE enhancement to Larry Silsbee's rendition of the Wilson Point Lighthouse by myself and Dexter Thomas. Requires Larrys wa_lighthouse.zip available here. (Its terrific!)
Lagos FSE for 2004 required to view the eye/ear candy but the traffic files all will work fine without it. Enjoy!

| 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.

Included from previous versions are revised shorelines, landclass and 19m mesh and buffer meshes for South-Eastern Vancouver Island; boat docks with static boats, seaplane docks and terminal buildings for Harbour Air, Kenmore Air and West Coast Air; piers, buildings, breakwater and other components of the Ogden Point Terminal; dock, service building and pilot boats of the Pacific Pilotage Authority; Odgen Point Cafe and Dive Shop; marine navigational lights for Victoria Harbour and area, including Esquimalt harbour and Oak Bay; antennae location corrections for the area; AFCADs included: Land based (CML2), Floatplane (CAB3, CAP5, CAP8, CAV8, CAW7, CAX6, CMAP, CYWH), Heli (CAL7, CBF5, CBF7, CBK8, CBW7, CBW9, CBZ7, CMBH); AI craft models and repaints (Cruise ships are repaints of Asuka model by Mitsuya Hamaguchi: MS Amsterdam of the Holland America Line travelling from Victoria to Vancouver, MS Summit of the Celebrity Cruise Line travelling from Seattle to Victoria); S-61 Sea-King helicopter in Helijet colours; Pacific Pilot custom vessel working from the Pilot dock; 22, 30 and 40 foot vessels plying the harbour and nearby Straight of Juan de Fuca. Effects included for lights, water, smoke effects. Many flights are offered, including two flights for owners of the Aerosoft Beaver (not required). Ultimate Terrain compatible (not required). Users of Misty Fjords will also get additional cruise ship traffic: the Island Princess and the Volendam alternating with the Amsterdam and Summit.

| Ketchikan PAKT in southern Alaska plus float planes 5KE and the town |
|

File Description:
This is Ketchikan PAKT in southern Alaska, 45 miles north of the Canadian border and 220 miles south of Juneau. It is the closest major Alaskan airport to the lower 48 and most flights from or to Seattle pass through Ketchikan en route. The airport is on the southern side of the stretch of water known as The Narrows and the town is on the northern side, with ferries connecting the two. The town side was somewhat modified as part of one of the three Misty Fjords sceneries, so there were already some marinas and docked cruise liners etc before I started this. In addition, Ketchikan Airport had been partly made way back in 2006, and further modified in 2007; I say "partly" as there is in fact no way to accurately make PAKT within the limitations of FS9 as there is a 50 or 60 feet difference in elevation between runway and apron, and the taxiways are actually ramps up from the apron to the ends of the runway. This has a knock-on effect on the float plane and ferry docks on the water below the airport. I can see why the Misty Fjord sceneries avoided it. This scenery retains the original buildings from the Alan Wright scenery. It also includes the modification made by John Hinson, who created the second taxiway to the western end of the runway; FS9 had not included this as the original airport started operations with only one taxiway in place. There are new vehicles on the apron (fuel etc), new apron markings and some parking modifications to enable AI with Boing 737, DC6, Beechcraft 1900, and GA, plus runway and taxiway signage, windsocks, some car parking, freight items, etc. There is a road and covered bridges down to the docks and ferry, and the town side of the water has been modelled to include other float plane docks along with waterfront buildings, including the ship repair facility with it's dry dock (actually a floating dock that lifts ships out of the water) and the Alaskan Ferry Terminal wharf etc. The ferry forms a part of the AI, generously permitted by FSAddon and originally a part of the payware Tongass Fjords package, as are the AI aircraft also included here. There are new waterside buildings that stretch from the ship repair yard, past the shopping plaza and onward to the stationary cruise liners (that were part of the Tongass payware scenery) including float docks for the float plane companies that are based in Ketchikan, plus a new AI liner. The AI is a further adaptation of the already posted CF36 AI and PAKN AI, as listed in the AI folder. Due to the surrounding hills there may be some interference with AI float aircraft, depending on the wind direction, though I have watched succesful Beaver landings with the wind from the east. The combined AI for float planes creates a float plane take off or landing at, on average, 20 minute intervals; this is still well short of the actual busy summertime period.
