Some Curved or Angled Approaches, Beirut, Washington Reagan, Lugano and Swiss valleys

File Description:
This little project started from my Air Glaciers package when I noticed how indifferent the AI pilots were to terrain. Intrigued by the work of Jim Vile on his "active approach" series I have experimented with interesting approaches that FS9 has not implemented. Using XML files I created curved approaches for Beirut Runway 21 ILS (inbound flights arc across the city), the visual turn to final for Washington Reagan's Runway 19, the circling approach for runway 19 at Lugano in Switzerland (just an arc in this case) and valley approaches for airports in Switzerland at Sion, Samedan and Locarno. Due to AI limitations in FS9 these have all needed to be created as ILS approaches, even at airports without an ILS. Note that your AFCAD layouts do not need to have ILS added to airports that don't have it. In some cases the approach will be called an ILS by the controller, if you can live with that, you might like these. Note that I've included the source XML for each of the approaches so that you can improve upon them if you wish. Note also that they have been tested with the default Microsoft mesh and an addon mesh might alter the proximity of terrain to aircraft. AI aircraft FDEs will, in some cases, be stretched to (and beyond?) their limits. In the case of Beirut I have included two approaches (BOB NDB and "Wide Arc"), the latter less demanding than the former, in case your AI can't fly the BOD NDB approach. Note that although the approaches are designed for AI, I have built full procedures for Lugano and Sion for the user to fly.

Rolls Royce RB211-535 Soundset for the Boeing 757 and Tupolev Tu204

File Description:
The 757 has long been on my list of to do's to update. I finally got around to the daunting task of finding all new clips, redoing the whole cfg, and finding a whole new perspective of the 757. With ultra-Realism in mind, Ive created my best work yet for the narrow body aircraft. You can clearly hear that this set deserves the title of being a Rolls Royce. All files were recorded in full stereo and all exterior files were recorded in very close proximity to give you the most realistic simulation experience possible. The signature of this engine is the mid-spool compression grind. When the thrust of this engine hits 85% you'll gear a nose-grating grind noise that lasts for the rest of the time the engine is at that level or higher. Same for the inside, just to a lesser excent. Recomended for use with the Project Opensky Boeing 757, IFDG v2/v3 Boeing 757 and any other model of the Tupolev Tu204/Tu214 that you can find, as these engines also power that aircraft. Please Enjoy
