| Himalayas LOD9 Base Mesh, Volume 5 - Hindu Kush and Pamir |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Detailed terrain mesh of the Hindu Kush and Pamir Ranges, N32-40 E70-76. 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, the LOD9 "base mesh" series, with LOD8 and LOD7 "buffer" mesh files, covering the entire Himalayas, is meant for those who do not yet have an add-on terrain mesh of these beautiful mountains.

| Alps LOD10 Topo Mesh - Switzerland and France |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Yet another terrain mesh package of the European Alps? Well, this one is different in that it is NOT primarily based on the Shuttle Radar (SRTM) data with their incomplete coverage of prominent peaks and ridges. Instead, most of the source data for this project were developed over many months by Jonathan de Ferranti using detailed topographic maps. 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 SRTM- or DTED-based mesh file, freeware or commercial (a link to an extensive set of screenshot comparisons is included in the read-me file).
I've compiled the source data at LOD10 (38-m) grid resolution because the coverage area is smaller than most existing mesh files. Thus, anyone can use these files without having to first uninstall their current mesh set. Also included are LOD9 and LO8 buffer mesh files. Note: if you own Switzerland Professional with its high-resolution terrain mesh then you don't need this package, at least not the Switzerland files!

| Alaska/BC Bush Scenery: Edgecombe Lodge, Johnny Mountain Mine, & Bob Quinn Lake |
|
File Description:
My fourth bush scenery in Alaska/British Columbia. This package includes three airstrips: the first runway at Edgecombe Lodge has an unusual inclined profile, located precariously across a ridgeline on Annette Island near Ketchikan. I've also put together a tailor-made NDB Instrument Approach plate for it. The other two, Johnny Mountain Mine and Bob Quinn Lake, are hazardous real-life airstrips along the Iskut River in BC (about 50 miles north of Ketchikan). Includes AFCAD files for FS2004 and FS2002. Although I have modified the terrain to create the runways, Eddie Denney's FS2002 mesh of Alaska is still required as a foundation for this scenery to work. Also requires Gerrish Gray's Tree Library (release 3).

| CYYD - Smithers Regional Airport - Smithers, British Columbia, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Smithers is in northwest BC, 60 miles east and a bit north of Terrace (my previous post) and directly east of the southern border of Alaska, 430 miles north of Vancouver on the Yellowhead highway. The town has a population of 5,500 and is set in a north-south valley between mountains, the most impressive of which is Hudson Bay Mountain to the west. The airport is to the north of the town and has a single runway of 7,544 feet, aligned 33-15. The main user is Central Mountain Air, who are headquartered in Smithers and have a large maintenance hangar there next to the terminal building. The airport has scheduled flights by Central Mountain Air, Jazz, and Hawk Air, which are in the AI along with a Lockheed Electra of Conair (who are the largest operator of fire fighting planes in BC and have re-fill tanks in Smithers) and also a HS 748 of Air North, which is actually for an upcoming post of Old Crow CYOC.

| Health Bay CAD7 in British Columbia, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is the fourth in a series of new and renovated float bases in BC. Health Bay is a small village on the west coast of Gilford Island, just 13 miles northwest of Minstrel Island (the previous post in this series). There is no fuel or oil available. The AI is a further adaptation of the original CF36 AI and involves a Baxter Beaver flying from Port Hardy on a round trip in the area through Port McNeill, Health Bay, Echo Bay, and Sullivan Bay. At Health Bay the AI appears to work for both landing and takeoff, though landing will still depend on wind direction. I have played with circuit height and runway length at Minstrel Island and there are improvements, so there is a Minstrel Island replacement bgl. All of these float bases can be installed together in the same folders, with a saving in duplicate textures. So a series called BC Floats (or whatever you want to call it) or individually installed float bases; your choice. The next in the series will be Echo Bay, shown in an included screenshot.

| Campbell River CAE3 in BC Canada, textures and revised AI with Beaver aircraft |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Campbell River CAE3 float base is in the middle of the eastern shore of Vancouver Island, six miles from the airport of the same name and where the channel between island and coast narrows down. Coril Air and Vancouver Island Air are both based there, but any number of other company planes can be seen on a daily basis, for instance Harbour Air which runs a regular service from Vancouver. This post provides all the textures required for the original post (some were missing, as I was told recently after some years had passed) plus a revised traffic file for Campbell River which has Beaver float planes flying between Campbell River and Vancouver Harbour. The Beaver planes are included, with permission, from the payware Alaska scenery by FSAddon. The layout of the dock moorings has been revised and the AFCAD included here replaces the one previously provided. The date of the scenery is around 2010, before a lot of the holiday trailers had been removed.

| New Airport for Canadian Mountain Parks Pack |
|
File Description:
FS2004 Scenery - This file adds 1 new airport to Canadian Mountain Parks Pack (cmpcanmtpks_v1.zip available at AVSIM) . Required is: cmpcanmtpks_v1.zip, Holger Sandmann's excellent BC mesh, which was the original reason for these files in the first place, and Lago's FSE demo file. Pack designed for low level visual 30 mile scenic flights. The strip is ficticious, but the names and places are real. There is parking for you to add your own AI traffic as well. One flight included.

| Hong Kong Kai Tak 1963 |
|
File Description:
This is Kai Tak airport as it was in 1963. Kowloon Bay has yet to be filled in, and the runway is only 8405 ft long. Includes mesh files by Holger Sandmann and charts of the era scanned by Chic Eather. Navaids backdated to the early 60's, except the IGS for runway 13 is included although not actually installed until 1974. Curving approach lights will help you find the runway. Chek Lap Kok airport has been removed. The IGS and other approaches created by Jim Vile. The AI aircraft will follow the curved approach to runway 13 in good weather or bad. Please note that Jim Vile has produced a modern version of this airport (kaitak98.zip).
