| Majestic Dash-8 Q400 Easy Flying Guide ** UPDATED ** |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
The Dash-8 Q400 by Majestic Software for FSX is a very complex model, and therefore continuous practice is normally needed to remain current on this aircraft. This EASY FLYING GUIDE is made for those who want to fly this wonderful model only occasionally, without studying the manuals before each flight. The EASY FLYING GUIDE leads you through your flight with the Majestic Software Dash-8 Q400, from the preparation of the FSX until engine shutdown at the parking position of the destination airport. It is a kind of checklist, amended by additional information (e.g. where the switches for each step are located in the cockpit and how to operate the essential FMS functions). Besides a PDF, there is also a DOC file which allows you to modify the guide for your own needs (but not for further distribution/publishing!). Updated version with slightly modified flow and extended description of FMS and engine functions, based on Pilot Edition V1.012

| A2A Cherokee VLIEGCLUB FLEVO textures v2.0 and A2A Cherokee Panel in KNOTS |
|
File Description:
Since the end of March 2016 the fleet of Vliegclub Flevo changed. Vliegclub Flevo is based in Lelystad, the biggest GA Airport in the Netherlands.
The PH-VFA is replaced by the G-BJSV. This package contains the old colours of the PH-VFB and PH-VFC and the new livery of the PH-DRT and the G-BJSV.
The real life new livery is designed by me. I've converted the new livery to the A2A Piper Cherokee 180. In real the PH-VFB and the PH-VFC is a Piper PA28-161 Cadet. The G-BJSV is a Piper PA28-161 Arrow II and the PH-DRT is a PA28-181 Archer II. The textures have been tested with FSX only and are only made for the A2A Piper PA28-180 Cherokee.
As option you can change the A2A Cherokee Panel IAS indicator from Statute Miles to Nautical Miles.

| X2MB - RAF Membury - Berkshire, England |
|
File Description:
RAF Membury (ICAO X2MB) is a former Royal Air Force station built in the civil parish of Lambourn in Berkshire, England. The airfield is located approximately 4.6 miles (7.4 km) mi north-northwest of Hungerford, at the Membury services stop of the M4 motorway; about 60 miles (97 km) miles west-southwest of London. The airfield also lies immediately next to the Iron Age hill fort of Membury Camp.
Opened in 1942, it was used by both the Royal Air Force (RAF) and United States Army Air Forces (USAAF). During the war it was used by several combat units with varying missions. It was also a major supply and maintenance depot. After the war, it was a private airport until the construction of the M4 motorway in the 1960s when it was closed.
Today the remains of the airfield are located on private property with the former technical site now being an industrial estate (Membury Business Park).

| "Oakland NAS" North American SNJ-5 (G-CHIA) |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a repaint for the payware A2A Simulations AT-6 Texan. This repaint depicts the restored SNJ-5 BuNo. 85061, registered as G-CHIA, based at White Waltham airfield in the UK. This aircraft originally served in the US Navy from 1945 until 1954, at which time it was one of 12 SNJ's loaned to the then newly formed Japanese Maritime Self Defense Force. In 1977, the aircraft was returned to the US Navy and it was subsequently sold into the civilian market, becoming N9012Y in early 1979. By 1984 the aircraft was restored, painted in the markings of an early 1950's Oakland NAS based SNJ. After changing hands/locations a couple of times while still in the US, first to Corvallis, OR in 1997, and then later to Skagit Regional Airport north of Seattle in 2001, the aircraft was sold to the UK-based The Warplane Flying Co., first flying from Duxford, England in November 2012.

| George Bush N2S-1 Stearman (N50061) |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a repaint only, for the payware Vertigo Studios Stearman Vol.1 set. This repaint depicts the restored Stearman N2S-1, N50061, owned/operated by Paul Ehlen and based at the Wings of the North Museum at Flying Cloud Airport, Eden Prairie, Minnesota. The aircraft, originally manufactured as U.S. Navy BuNo. 3347, is one of five Stearmans known to still exist that were flown by President George H. W. Bush as a cadet in the Navy. He flew this aircraft while training in the cold Minnesota winter at Wold-Chamberlain Airfield, Naval Air Station Minneapolis (modern-day KMSP), in January and early February 1943. The aircraft was sent to AirCorps Aviation for ground-up restoration in 2014, and emerged in 2015 as one of, if not the most period-authentic restored Stearmans to-date, restored to just as it was in 1943 (no electric starter (only hand-crank start) and no radios of any sort). The aircraft won "Best Stearman" at Oshkosh 2015.

| KORD-Chicago O'Hare 2018 |

File Description:
Chicago O'Hare 2018
===================
This airport has been undergoing frequent change ever since I first landed there in 2005. Fortunately, the core buildings have remained essentially the same, but runways have come and some have gone.
I got very close to releasing a 2016 version, but held back for more data. Then I looked again this year and discovered another runway gone, new ones in construction etc.
So, what I have decided to release is basically as up to date as I can make it, using Google Earth to judge the state of things in March 2018, and Charts from August 18th 2018. A lot of Taxiway labelling has changed yet again, and I dare say I've missed some of the taxi signs. One taxiway isn't on the March image, but is on the chart, so I've added it as best I can.
I think this will always be a work in progress.

| Douglas C-47 (79001) Swedish Air Force |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for version 3.14 of the Douglas C-47 by Manfred Jahn and colleagues in the colors of C-47B 79001 of the Swedish Air Force that was at the start of the Catalina affair (Swedish: Catalinaaffären), a military confrontation and Cold War-era diplomatic crisis in June 1952, in which Soviet fighter jets shot down two Swedish aircraft over international waters in the Baltic Sea. The first aircraft to be shot down was an unarmed Swedish Air Force Tp 79, a derivative of the Douglas DC-3, carrying out radio and radar signals intelligence-gathering for the National Defence Radio Establishment. None of the crew of eight was rescued. The second aircraft to be shot down was a Swedish Air Force Tp 47, a Catalina flying boat, involved in the search and rescue operation for the missing DC-3. The Catalina's crew of five was saved. The Soviet Union publicly denied involvement until its dissolution in 1991. The aircraft was manufactured in 1943 with original US serial number 42-5694, and was delivered to USAAF 15th Troop Carrier Squadron (61st Troop Carrier Group). It saw action in northern Africa before being stationed at RAF Barkston Heath. On June 13, 1952, it disappeared east of the isle of Gotska Sandön while carrying out signals intelligence-gathering operations for the Swedish National Defence Radio Establishment. Both aircraft were located in 2003, and the DC-3 was salvaged, and the wreckage is currently on display in the Swedish Air Force Museum near Linköping. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom for Manfred Jahn's C-47 version 3.14, based on the paintkit by Gman5250.

| Wynoochee Lake WA - (Bob's Fly-in Cabin) |
|
File Description:
Wynoochee Lake WA (Bob's Fishing Cabin) - Airport ID: BOB (FSX). - -
This is a fictitious fly-in lodge that I created for a quiet spot to fly into for weekend trips from the Seattle area. My cabin is located about 40 miles due south of Port Angeles, WA and about 50 miles due west of Seattle. - -
Wynoochee Lake is a real location, but my scenery around the lake is fictitious. - -
You will find my dirt airstrip to be quite challenging, although completely fly-able. My location is even more challenging at dawn or dusk with Weather. There are no approach lights, its just a rugged bush strip. - -
It is extra challenging with crash detection turned on - watch out for those birds, they're everywhere and that old tree just of the side of the dirt strip - don't get too close! - -
This is freeware. I hope you enjoy it. - -
Designed with the FS X Sdk Scenery function of the Mission builder,Abacus Scenery shortcut tool and Lee Swordy's AFCAD. - -
This scenery is frame rate friendly. - - Please read the "readme" - -

File Description:
This is an updated version (original Jan 2018). Fixed some ground texture problems plus a lot of added and improved objects and 3 NEW airports. There are 14 airports starting at Ararat and extending up to the Murray at Swan Hill. YARA Ararat YSWL Stawell YMBU Maryborough YSTA Saint Arnaud YDOD Donald YWYF Wycheproof YBIR Birchip YHPN Hopetoun YKER Kerang YSLK Sealake YSWH Swanhill + *NEW* YNHL Nhill YHML Hamilton YWKB Warracknabeal. A lot of airports but not a quicky slap dash effort. It is several hundred hours over many months. Surrounding scenery modified to match real life. Towns, race courses, forests, sewage treatment ponds, obstacles (towers etc) have been added. Included is an AI traffic file that covers all airports that don't already have AI. These files are for Flight Simulator X. Made using Airport Design Editor using some objects borrowed from Robert Budd's excellent Baccus Marsh. RECOMMENDED The scenery is designed to interface with ORBX FTX_AU scenery for Australia (payware). It will work without ORBX but will not interface as well with standard scenery.
