| P-51D 52nd FG QP-U "Hey Rube! IV" |
|
File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the A2A/Shockwave World War II Fighters P-51D Mustang, representing 44-14227 "Hey Rube! IV", which flew with the 2nd FS/ 52nd FG from Madna, Italy in july 1944, with Captain Daniel Zoerb as its assigned pilot. Zoerb played in a carnival band before the war, and the expression "Hey Rube!" was used to indicate that trouble was about to break out. This aircraft ended up in Rumania. During an escort mission on 8 september 1944, to pick up some American POW's with a B17, Capt Zoerb lost power over Bucharest airfield and made a very hard landing, buckling the wings. He stayed overnight with the Rumanian pilots and was treated to a real feast: Sheep's head soup! The next day, he flew back in a B17. He finished his combat tour a major with seven kills and as CO of the squadron.
Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the repaint kit by John Terrell. It should work in both FSX and FS9.

File Description:
F/A-18 HUD and panel (2D and 3D) for use with Team FS KBT’s Super Hornet. Built from scratch for FSX, and at higher resolution than previous versions. Works well within the 3-D virtual cockpit. Multiple zooms in 2D also supported. Very little framerate loss in fullscreen. The symbology is now much more realistic (almost identical, pixel for pixel, to the real Hornet’s. See pics and video within.) New HUD features added, including courseline steering arrow (can be linked to NAV1, NAV2, or GPS), multiple clock modes, realistic HUD reject options, altitude options, energy caret, etc. Many pics and vids within, as well as useful and informative documents, including actual carrier pattern specs.

It features:
(1): A catapult gauge, enabling a catapult-launch takeoff.
(2): An arrester gauge, enabling a cable-arrested landing.
(3): A IFLOLS gauge, enabling accurate approaches and landings.
(4): A SonicBoom effect (visual and audible) plus controller gauge.
Includes extensive installation/usage documentation.
Requires prior installation of FSUIPC.
Special credit goes to Doug Dawson; without his (included) interface gauges
(a.o. for speedcontrol, lauch/arrest zone definitions and soundplaying) this

| LEAS (Asturias), LEMR (Oviedo) and Cantabrico Coast Region (Spain) General Changes |
|
File Description:
Changed the Region Code of the Cantabrico Coast Zone, in Spain, in order to have a look more atlantic than mediterranean. Added Parking, Jetways and Navaids to LEAS. Added Parking, Apron, Helipad, Fuel and Generic Buildings to LEMR. In this Pack 3 I have put together all the elements of the Packs 1 and 2, after fixing some bugs detected, specially in LEMR flattening and taxiways distribution. I have added some buildings, too, and enhanced the LEAS Parking with one more Gate, as in reality. This Pack can be used alone, and doesn’t need any element of the previous ones. Thanks again to Luis Feliz Tirado, Francesco Mandelli, Russel Dirks and Luis Sá for their help, tutorials and tools.
