| "Himalayan Peaks" LOD10 Mesh, Volume 3 - Namcha Barwa |
|
File Description:
Highly detailed terrain mesh of the Namcha Barwa area, N29°-31° E94°-96°. 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, a LOD9 "base mesh" series covering the entire Himalayas will be available for those who do not yet have an add-on terrain mesh of these beautiful mountains.

| FAA Douglas DC-4A (EC-54D) |
|
File Description:
FAA Douglas DC-4A (EC-54D)
Reg. ID N87, msn 22187, ex U.S. Army Air Force
Douglas C-54D-15-DO Skymaster. Flight
inspection aircraft of U.S. Federal Aviation
Agency (1959-1967) in colors of 1963. Used as
a calibrator for international flight inspection
when checking and calibration navaids and instrument
procedures, including ILS, VOR, DME, TACAN, NDB,
various radars and airports. This repaint is
dedicated to James E. Creed (+2001), who between 1956
and 1975 was a flight inspection pilot at CAA/FAA
and later chief of FAA's flight inspection offices
in Japan (Tokyo/Tachikawa) and Germany (Frankfurt/
Rhine-Main-office). Although Jim type rated in many
aircraft the DC-4 was his favorite. His last DC-4
flights were with aircraft registered N87 on July
18/19/20 in 1963. Textures only. Original model
(DC4_v10.zip) by Jens B. Kristensen must be installed.

| Ethiopia - Ras Dashen (Highest Mountains Package 003) |
|
File Description:
This is the flight package "003 Ethiopia Ras Dashen" of the series "Highest Mountains - of all Countries of the World". Flying around for sightseeing is one of the countless options you can do with MS Flight Simulator 2004. Mountain areas are a good choice for looking around, especially if you have a high quality mesh available for those areas. Why not travel to the highest mountain of each country of the world and have a flight from a near airfield up to the roof. With this flight package you will get a ready to fly programmed flight file, including a flight plan for GPS, an interactive map within the kneeboard using GoogleMaps showing the flight path while flying, a weather file generated with ActiveSky 6.5, GPS measured airfields, high quality mesh data for this area, a lot of GA traffic flying around, AI helicopters (not with this package) flying around and coming close to you and some other cool effects you will discover while flying.

| Pete & Sid's Viva Scenery Volume 4 |
|
File Description:
This is a collection of scenery enhancements for 81 airports, mostly smaller ones, located primarily in the Pacific Northwest, Alaska and Western Canada. (Yes, there's one in New Zealand.) It was not our intention to do anything fancy or particularly accurate, but simply to make the default scenery less boring and more fun. General aviation AI traffic (using default FS9 aircraft) is also included for some of these airports. The scenery for any individual airport may be removed without affecting the other airports. Some the airports we've done may also be included in Glacier Bay and other scenery add-ons; you'll need to remove one or the other to resolve any conflicts. This scenery was designed to work with Flight1's Ultimate Terrain and has not been tested with the default FS9 scenery. Most of the airports will probably work fine with the default scenery; those airports near water features (lakes, rivers, coastlines) are the ones most likely to have problems.

| Lost Horn Ranch |
|
File Description:
This is Lost Horn Ranch (FA80) a small farm strip located in South Florida near Ochopee. The location is well placed to reach the west and Gulf coasts and not too far from the Keys. The strip exists in the default FS9. This scenery is fiction and tries to depict a small farm strip in the 1930s. The inspiration to make this was Golden Wings 3 (developed by Bill and Lynn Lyons and the Golden Wings Gang). Hopefully everything looks more or less in keeping with the period prior to WWII. If something stands out then let me know and I will do something about it. The scenery is a work in progress. I plan to add to it over the coming months including some outlying buildings etc and maybe another farm strip or two. I have in mind to create enough visual reference points across Florida so that pilots may fly VFR using them. In the meantime please accept my apologies for any rough edges.

| Procedures for the LevelD Boeing 767-300 |
|
File Description:
English: This file is a PDF with a german / english manual with procedures, to bring the Level-D 767 from, "Cold'n'Dark" into the air. The FMC programming, loading and fueling isn't described, therefor I advise the great PMDG 737 / 747 Tutorials of Jens-Albert Schenk. The FMCs of the Boeing 767 are looking alike them from the 737 or 747! Who can handle with 737s or 747s FMC, can handle the 767s FMC too.
These Procedures contain everything, the pilot has to do, but not all control-tasks. That means, U can find every Switch, U have to push numbered in the corrosponding panel, that U can proserously get from "Cold'n'Dark" into "After Takeoff"
I Don't made any description for the Procedures from "Climb and Cruise" until "Secure", because there are essentially used the same switches.
In addendum can U find a 2D-Picture of the Lightpanel with a description and real airline checklists.
Please read the provided english-manual of the levelD 767!!

| Deer Valley FC Resort & Roosevelt Lake |
|
File Description:
Deer Valley Resort at Roosevelt Lake Scenery. -
This is a fictious Resort at Roosevelt Lake by Grapevine AZ USA.
Its basically a fly-in resort for the Deer Valley Flying Club members to relax, do some fishing, go to the Amusement Park and have a general great time. But the resort is now open to the public. If you dont want to spend the big bucks, there is a small campground located nearby.
I suggest a float plane or helocopter for the trip out and back. If you're a competent bush pilot, you might be able to land on the grass runway, but its a very difficult strip. Fly a STOL plane or you wil not make it.
Acknowledments:
Microsoft: FS X Sdk Scenery function of the Mission builder.
Abacus: Scenery shortcut tool.
Lee Swordy: AFCAD Ver 2.21.
NOTE: This scenery is frame rate friendly, but I would highly suggest turning off ground shadows.

| Montana Unleashed! - Part Two |
|
File Description:
Montana Unleashed! Part Two is a continuation of the original Montana Unleashed! scenery which was released just over a year ago. The original scenery package currently has over 3,500 downloads on AVSIM alone and I'm hoping you all will enjoy this new collection as much as the first set. Part Two adds 14 more Montana airports bringing the combined total of the two packages to 28 highly detailed airports. Please do a Zip Dive for an in depth look at the included airports in picture form. Also in the Read Me file is a link to Joe Degregorio's FlightLevel390 website where you can download all the necessary Object Libraries (192MB). Thanks Joe! Included airports are 3U7, 1S3, 4U6, S64, M75, KHWQ, KRPX, KJDN, KMLS, KOLF, KGDV, KPWD, KSDY, and KBHK as well as the Wind Generator Farm in the St, Jude Pass. This scenery runs pretty well on older PC's and smooth as silk on newer PC's! Happy flying to all!! (Designed for FS9)
