| VAKE Kandla/Gandhidham, India |

File Description:
Googly scenery for VAKE Kandla/Gandhidham - a small domestic airport
in the state of Gujurat, India, for which little other than a runway is
provided in Flight Simulator 2004. These scenery files add taxiways, aprons,
buildings and other airport features, so that you and your "AI" traffic can
land, taxi, park and take off in a realistic manner.
Gandhidham is a small city about 5 miles from the seaport of Kandla, in the
Gulf of Kutch, and was developed in 1950 after the separation of Pakistan and
India left the key port of Karachi in Pakistan. The airport is served by daily
flights using turboprop aircraft of Air Deccan.
The scenery does not purport to be ultra-accurate. Based on high-detail satellite
imagery from Google Earth, the layout is proportionally correct but the added
airport features, such as buildings, are built from default Microsoft objects
and add-on libraries so will not look exactly like the real thing.
You are not obliged to download and install any additional scenery libraries,
but to enjoy this scenery in its entirety, you may wish to. It will work fine,
with or without.

| Frozen & Landable Lakes & Rivers for All Canada Winter Ski Operations |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This "freezes" ALL Canadian lakes and rivers for winter flying and means they can be landed on with skis or wheels. This edition covers all of Canada plus parts of the USA along the border, including Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota, and Montana. It is reversible with an "untick" in the FS scenery library. I have spent some time making sure that the sea and the inlets along the coast do not get frozen too, and also some of the lakes that are close to the coast and rarely get cold enough to freeze over. Along the north shore I went for the peak of the winter with sea ice all the way to the permanent polar cap; this is not totally realistic as there is usually a partially open lead along the coast, but this would be difficult to replicate convincingly. This is really for use with Ultimate Terrain, though it will work without it. The pics show Rockcliffe in the winter with the frozen Ottawa River for real and in FS for comparison; without UT the river would not be in the right place.

| Embrun CPR2 in Ontario Canada 2012 Revision |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Embrun is in Ontario a few miles southeast of Ottawa, and southwest of my posted strips Russel Farm, Russellet Strip, and Indian Creek. It is a real airfield, used by Embrun Flying Club, and there is now fuel since the owner built a house on the field and moved in, and more hangars than there used to be. All in all a nice airfield with a grass runway 2,260 feet long, and in this REVISED version with a new windsock. There are electric cables strung along the road at the eastern end of the runway, marked by visibility balls; watch out for those. At the western end there are some old grain silos; these shouldn't be a problem, and if you are flying a taildragger give you something to aim at until the tail comes up. I did my first grass field landing and take off there when I was learning to fly, and it is just the right distance from Rockcliffe for a nice afternoon training flight. Look out for geese taking off from the fields to the west when you use 26; that departure from Embrun along with 50 geese was more entertaining than most.

File Description:
Googly scenery for VABP Bhopal/Bairagarh, India - an enhancement to the
airport provided in Flight Simulator 2004 which is incorrect in many respects.
These scenery files enlarge the apron to a realistic size to accept scheduled
traffic, remove spurious taxiways (they were actually perimeter tracks!), and
add buildings and other airport features so that you and your "AI" traffic
can land, taxi, park and take off in a realistic manner.
This small domestic airport is served by Boeing and Airbus jets of Indian
Airlines and Jet Airways together with local flights operated by ATRs of Air
Deccan.
The scenery does not purport to be ultra-accurate. Based on high-detail satellite
imagery from Google Earth, the layout is proportionally correct but the added
airport features, such as buildings, are built from default Microsoft objects
and add-on libraries so will not look like the real thing.
You are not obliged to download and install any additional scenery libraries,
but to enjoy this scenery in its entirety, you may wish to. It will work fine,
with or without.

| New Alternate Roads for FlightOne "USRoads" |
|
File Description:
USA Roads" is a software add-on for MS Flight Simulator 2004 (FS9) marketed by Flight One Software, Inc. and Scenery Solutions. It replaces the default roads and highways which are sparse and only approximate in location, with correctly placed roads, down to the street level.
It has been said by some that "US Roads" look unrealistic, like looking at a Road-Map, because the roads are too bright and clean. In real life the roads are darker and partially concealed by vegetation. I have spent hours looking at aerial photos on the net, and was surprised at how "US Roads" looks very realistic, especially when comparing FS "top-down" views with map-type color photos. The light color roads are very prominent in the pictures, as are the clean lines. In my new "Alternate US Roads", I have modified the various roads using different methods, including actual road photographs, changes in road color and brightness, and the use of irregular transparency to soften the lines and give the illusion of vegetation partially obscuring the roadse. Most textures use images adapted from "US Roads" by kind permission of the author. Extract to a temporary file, and follow the ReadMe!

| Houn, Libyan (HLON/HUQ) |
|
File Description:
Googly scenery for HLON Hon, Libya, a small domestic airport serving the oasis town (which is correctly spelt Houn) about 250 miles south-east of Tripoli. It is the capital of the Al Jufrah region. Although the airport holds ICAO and IATA status, as far as I can establish there are
currently no scheduled services to this airport, so present-day traffic is limited to the occasional charter, cargo or private flight. Flight Simulator 2004 has made no provision for traffic with only a runway provided and this scenery seeks to redress the situation so that you and your "AI" traffic can use the airport. The scenery does not purport to be ultra-accurate. Based on high quality satellite imagery from Google Earth, the layout is proportionally correct but the
added airport features, such as buildings, are built from default Microsoft objects
and add-on libraries so will not look exactly like the real thing. You are not obliged to download and install any additional scenery libraries, but to enjoy this scenery in its entirety, you may wish to. It will work fine, with or without.

| HTMS Moshi |
|
File Description:
Googly scenery for Moshi (ICAO: HTMS), a small airport serving the town of the same name
located in the lower slopes of Africa's highest mountain - Mount Kilamanjaro.
The town boasts good quality education and medical facilities, and industry
includes production of fizzy drinks, beer, flour, animal feed and furniture,
but surprisingly little tourism activity has been developed here so much of
the traffic at this airport is unscheduled and charter work using smaller
aircraft.
Microsoft have only provided wrongly-positioned runways at this airport in
Flight Simulator 2004 and this scenery seeks to redress the situation
so that you and your "AI" traffic can use the airport.
The scenery does not purport to be ultra-accurate. Based on high quality
satellite imagery from Google Earth, the layout is proportionally correct but the
added airport features, such as buildings, are built from default Microsoft objects
and add-on libraries so will not look exactly like the real thing.

| MYER Rock Sound International, Eleuthera Island, Bahamas |
|
File Description:
Googly scenery for Rock Sound International (ICAO: MYER), a grand-sounding but
quiet airport located on Eleuthera Island, Bahamas. Eleuthera is a long
and thin island east of Nassau and has three commercial airports, the busiest
being Governor's Harbour. Rock Sound is at the southern end and is served twice
daily by Dash 8 turboprops of Bahamasair, along with occasional flights by
operators such as Southern Air Charter. The airport has seen busier days and
was once even served from Europe by Alitalia.
Microsoft have only provided general aviation facilities at this airport in
Flight Simulator 2004 and this scenery seeks to redress the situation
so that you and your "AI" traffic can use the airport realistically.

| DTTG Gabes, Tunisia |
|
File Description:
Googly scenery for Gabes (ICAO: DTTG), a somewhat nondescript airport
shoe-horned into one of Tunisia's largest industrial cities. Famed for
its beaches, the city hosts cement, chemical and brick factories and an
oil refinery, resulting in poor levels of air pollution. The airport is
a joint military and civilian operation although military traffic appears
to be mostly helicopter activity and the civilian traffic consists of an
ATR of Sevenair calling in once in a blue moon.
Microsoft have only provided a runway at this airport in Flight Simulator
2004 and this scenery seeks to redress the situation so that you and your
"AI" traffic can use the airport realistically.
The scenery does not purport to be ultra-accurate. Based on high quality

| LELC Murcia/San Javier, Spain |
|
File Description:
Googly scenery for LELC San Javier, Spain, a medium-sized airport on the Costa
Cálida 17 miles south of Murcia. The airport sees daily scheduled traffic
operated by Canadair Regional Jets and Dash 8 turboprops of Air Nostrum but a
large proportion of the airport's traffic is derived from tourist charter
traffic from operators such as Air Berlin, Easyjet, LTU International and
Ryanair and the airport can accept aircraft as large as the Boeing 767. The
north end of the airport is home to the Spanish Air Force Academy.
Flight Simulator 2004 has made little provision for traffic with facilities only
for general aviation aircraft and this scenery seeks to redress the situation.
The scenery does not purport to be ultra-accurate. Based on high quality
satellite imagery from Google Earth, the layout is proportionally correct but the
