| AI Ships on Hong Kong Harbor |

File Description:
AI Ships on Hong Kong Harbor. This enhancement is designed to compliment the 9Dragons version of the old Kai Tak Airport (VHHX). One of the World's busiest harbors will get even busier as this package adds a number of AI ships sailing near the airport and the dock areas, adding visual interest to the Harbor which is already well populated with static ships. You will see a beautiful Yacht, several container ships, a tramp steamer and the SS Ile de France Cruise ship - all arriving and/or departing the area. A properly installed 9Dragons Kai Tak scenery is required. Models used are by Phil Crowther and Mitsuya Hamaguchi (Hama). A few technical notes are included if you wish to experiment with adding AI ships to your own scenery. This enhancement is for FS2004 only. Please unzip to a temporary folder and follow the easy installation instructions. Compiled for your flying enjoyment by David "Opa" Marshall.

| Ocean Stations Scenery |
|
File Description:
I've produced this scenery to provide all of the Ocean Stations I know about in the 1950's and 1960's. There is a ship on station (painted in the colors of the USA, UK, France, Norway, and Japan), an NDB to give you a bearing to the ship, a way to contact the ship using voice (you can get your position relative to the ship this way), and a DME for distances further than the limited 30 NM FS ATC gives you (normal communications would reach about 100 NM). You can also get a weather report, and if you are a seaplane you can be cleared to land. If you are a landplane, I guess this would constitute permission to ditch...
I want to give a big thank you to Mitsuya Hamaguchi (hama) for graciously supplying the ship used in this scenery.
This version uses AI ships and is NOT COMPATIBLE with multiplayer - use OceanStationsMP.zip instead

| Hewanorra TLPL on Saint Lucia in the eastern Caribbean |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
St Lucia island is to the north of the Grenadines, between Martinique and Saint Vincent. St Lucia is nearly 30 miles long and has a population of 175,000, with two airports. Hewanorra International is at the southern end of the island, the end furthest from the capital, Castries. The reason for this is that at the southern end it was possible to build a runway almost 9,000 feet long, while the airport in the north (Vigie) could not be extended further to accomodate the largest jets. The airport was originally a USAAF base, converted to commercial use.
All buildings are made with photographic textures and include the new terminal and a new control tower. The apron has been extended so that 747's etc can be accommodated, and there are regular international flights by Virgin, BA, Air Canada, Air France, etc and local connecting flights by LIAT; the AI includes both major international airlines and LIAT. The towns around the airport (Vieux Fort etc) are included here: the scenery is based on the "Lesser Antilles Mesh" which is required and can be downloaded for free.

| TNCS - Juancho E. Yrausquin Airport - Saba, Netherlands Antilles |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This island is the smallest municipality of the Netherlands. Saba is just under 30 miles south of St. Maarten, the island that was split between France and the Netherlands; to the southeast and 20 miles away is the small island of St. Eustatius, then St Kitts and then Nevis. The island comes out of the water like the top of Everest and keeps going, and there is no large space for a runway and no possibility of creating one with landfill with those steep sea cliffs. So what you have is a small runway (aligned 12/30) of 1,000 feet plus over-runs at each end that have small "closed" markings (see the white crosses) for a usable total of around 1,300 feet.
The airport restricts access as there is only space for four planes to park, plus a helicopter. And of course there is also the short runway to contend with. Landings are carried out under waivers issued by the Netherlands Civil Aviation Authority, and will always be on runway 12 as the southeast trade winds predominate. Twotters land there but only in real life; FS9 AI Twotters don't seem to find it adequate. There is no fuel or any other facility except for a small terminal building and a car park.

| LFRD2004 Dinard/St-Malo VFR Scenery |
|

File Description:
LFRD is a regional airport in Brittany, France. This scenery was created entirely with GMax and the latest Microsoft compilers. Everything was made to ensure maximum framerate while giving maximum visual impact, even on humbler machines. This scenery will run just as fast as the default one (which is very bare) with your current settings, even though there are literally thousands of houses, buildings, trees and a detailed airport.
This is a complete package:
-SRTM local mesh with custom coast trimming
-Custom phototexture (200sq km), with seamless blending into FS9 standard landclass
-Full autogen with custom local texture
-Custom landclass and waterclass
-AFCAD2 file with parking codes
-Custom Hi-res photographic textures at airport.
-Gmax buildings and xml librairy objects.
It was made by a real life pilot and is totally aimed at recreating the feeling of being there, not so much on the ground (after all, this is a FLIGHT simulator), but at circuit altitudes. This is not about recreating an airport in all its glorious details at the cost of framerate, but instead an exercise in balancing visual cues and details as viewed from up there to make it 'as real as it gets' within the limits of FS9.

| Airstrips of North-West Europe |

File Description:
The sales blurb for FS2004 announced the inclusion of over 23,000 airfields ... unfortunately a significant number of those consisted of little or nothing more than a runway on a flatten with a rectangular background polygon.
To enable the addition of an amount of lightweight GA AI traffic, without overloading those airfields that were designed with parking spaces and taxi-ways, (and are probably already busy), I herewith include over 140 small sceneries, of mostly default airfields, from NW France, up the English Channel and the North Sea coast through Belgium, the Netherlands and NW Germany to Denmark, all with added taxiways and parking spots, aprons, generic buildings and background polygons as appropriate, to enable AI traffic to be generated without interrupting things at the more major airports.
A few of the French airfields are "new", not included originally with FS2004, and a couple have been updated to suit more recent developments :- for example, LFES "Scaer Guiscriff" is now LFES "Bretagne Atlantique", LFOR "Chartres Champhol" is now LFOR "Chartres Metropole", EHSE "Seppe" is now EHSE "Breda International" and EKVH "Vesthimmerlands" was previously EKVH "Aars".
There's no photo-realism here, just a selection of basic 'generic' buildings, more or less accurately sized and placed to reflect the airfield layout as seen on on-line satellite imagery and aerial photography. These buildings have minimal effect on frame-rates, so are ideal for this kind of job.
The airfields are aligned as well as possible with the roads etc. in UT Europe and the Genesis Europe mesh, but should mostly be fine in a default installation or other configuration.
Please read the rest of this "waffle" in the included text file ... it might save some confusion ;)
Enjoy :)
