| Active ILS - KLAS (McCarran Intl - Las Vegas, Nevada) |
|
File Description:
As most know initiating the ILS at certain airports for AI Aircraft or User Planes is not a function at this time when using AFCAD2 if visibilty falls below 3 miles. This is do to the somewhat complex XML code that has to be written for NAVAIDS and then the compiling into a bgl file. If you add a new ILS runway to an airport such as KLAS (rwy 01L) only the user aircraft can use this runway when visibility falls below 3 miles. ATC will no longer use 01L ILS runway for AI Traffic or User Aircraft (by default) because FS9 sees it as a visual runway and will now vector your Planes back to rwy 7/25LR ILS which is also being used as a Terminal Departure Runway. The KLAS_ILS_jv.bgl file adds all NAVAIDS for making 01L a Precision Instrument Runway by adding all the radar fixes for both the ILS/DME approach portion and the proper missed approach procedures as per current published plates for runway 01L. See the readme for what's new at the KLAS airport. **** AFCAD2 included for FS9 default scenery. ****

| Hellenic Air Force F-4E Phantom II |
|
File Description:
Full compatible with both FS2K2 & FS9 versions, this "VietNam camouflage" repaint, is representing an F-4E Phantom II in service of 338th Squadron of Hellenic Air Force. The model is made by Kazunori Ito, the textures and the panel by Nick Karatzides. The package contains realistic sounds made by Angelos Hatzikatakos. A new panel was made by Nick Karatzides according pictures of the real Phantom cockpit. The panel uses the fine radar and HUD gauges, compatible with both FS2K2 & FS9 versions, made by Paolo Dessani and Eric Marciano. Nick Karatzides also made an accurate checlist for FS purposes and the VERY completed flight manual (38 pages) which can be read with Adobe Acrobat. This "F-4E_HAF_v1.zip" package is for EXPERIENCED FlightSimers and virtual pilots who have a "good feeling" on the controls and do not "kick" the contol stick while flying...(no mistakes allowed especialy during landing phase!) It is for people who want to know how it looks to fly with a modern fighter. The package contains visual effects, night lighting, fine looking mechanical parts movement, smoke contrails, realistic gears extracting / retracting etc.

| Simflyers KLAX AFCAD 2.1 |
|
File Description:
INSTRUCTIONS AND MORE INFO INCLUDED IN ZIP FILE. INCLUDES 3 OVERLAYS. Hi, I've created these AFCAD files for the Simflyers LAX scenery, as I could not find anything that was truly a; realistic, and b; functioned properly with the MS Fltsim 2002 AI. I've spent many hours testing and tweaking these AFCAD files, so I hope they are perfect enough to be widely used. However, I do stress that some previous experience of using AFCAD and changing aircraft radius sizes will be necessary. Please report any faults which may be discovered! Design tips for the future are always very useful!
WHATS NEW FOR 2.1:
I have changed the direction of takeoff / landing for all of the runways, as the AI appears to behave a lot better this way (less likeliness of aircraft getting stuck!). This has allowed me to move all of the runways used by the KLAX overlay to the north side of the airport, reducing the chances of aircraft landing on top of one another. KLAX also now has some extra Ramp GA Large bays to accomodate for all of the American Eagle Saab 340's! Finally, I have cleaned up the AFCAD removing unecessary nodes etc.

| China Airlines Boeing 747-400 PW 'Millennium Dragon' |
|
File Description:
This is a repaint of AIA Boeing 747-400PW in the special "Millennium Dragon" livery of China Airlines. Well, to my knowledge this livery was supposed to be painted on a CAL 747-400 to celebrate the year 2000, the year of the Dragon and a special Dynasty package was prepared too including a 747-400 model aircraft repainted in this color scheme. I'm not sure if they used that special livery or not (for I could not find
any pic of it), but fortunately a friend had its model aircraft and I used it as my repainting model. Oh
yes, I know it's neither the millennium, nor the year of the Dragon but I did it for two reasons: first
because I was born in the year of the Dragon (7/22/1976 8;) and second because I'm in a Chinese
mood (nope, I'm a Persian girl!) wishing to do something related and repainting this could somehow
satisfy me (can anybody please translate the Chinese words written next to the name of the airline in
that red stamp like thing)!! I hope that you'll like this and use it in your AI traffic 8;D

| Gere Sport Biplane |
|
File Description:
The Gere Sport Biplane is a 30's era homebuilt biplane, designed and built by George "Bud" Gere, who was killed in an accident before he could witness his plane's first flight. Early models used Ford Model T and Model A engines. This FS2004 version is powered by a Continental C-90-12F engine, which gives it a cruise speed of over 100 mph. It was created using actual plans (from the EAA 1933 Flying Manual) and the flight model accurately simulates an actual Gere Sport (N4686T) that I owned and flew during the mid 80's. That plane was slightly tail-heavy, which might have been due to the large Maule tailwheel that it was fitted with. It was great for getting in and out of rough fields. Not much in the way of instruments, so this won't be your favorite IFR bird. TrackIR users: you'll find a lot of visual enhancements in the virtual cockpit, so be sure to look around. Features: engine cowling that opens to display detailed Continental C-90 engine. This plane will do nice aerobatics and incredible sideslips.

| EHAM for NL2000, Multiple Runways, First Attempt |
|
File Description:
AFCAD2 File for :
Amsterdam, Schiphol Intl Airport, the Netherlands ( EHAM )
for NL2000 Scenery .
with Runways 06 and 36R for landings and 36L and 36C for take-offs .
NL2000 scenery can be found on Avsim as nl2kv291.zip .
All credits to NL2000 team for the NL2000 scenery, many many thanks .
( Not to bo used with the default scenery )
This Afcad file was originally made by Victor Nauta as af2nl2k29v2_eham.zip .
But now with breakthrough NON parallel runway assignment by Project AI, Jim Vile and
Reggie Fields, non-parallel runways can be used simultaniously .
Thanks to Jim .
Although created to use all runways, something I can't do about it is to make FS9
use South or West bound traffic .
Now only North bound traffic is possible as Victor Nauta also complained about and didn't see a solution as well .
Even with maximum wind from South-West ( a common thing in the Netherlands ) AI is still assigned to North or East bound .
I have closed Runway 9 as it is rarely used, and also Runway 4 ( Gen. Aviation ) closed to avoid smaller turboporops landing there .
Have fun, Silvester

| Active ILS - KATL (Hartsfield - Jackson Atlanta Intl Airport) |
|
File Description:
Many know that KATL was not updated in FSX do to the airport data cutoff date. KATL now has the new Runway 10/28 but there are many additions added which are to numerous for listing here. Several key changes are all 5 parallel runways are ATC controlled Arrival runways for both the User and AI Plane Traffic. All Gates and Parking Spots have been updated so AI Airline Planes including Cargo, Commuter, and Corporate GA park in the correct places. New Approach code including the 5 new STAR's, RNAV (gps overlay's), many new Transitions and correct Runway data as per current Jeppesen Charts (freeware charts included). Many features have also been fixed such as Jetways that moved the wrong way, recoding the ILS CAT II Runway 28 frequency, updating KLZU ILS Runway 25 frequency, many scenery GUID's to support KATL based on how it looks today and additional ground support tracks that go to many more places including all Cargo Stands. Read the included Whats New Readme txt file for all the enhancements and how I coded ATC to use all 5 parallel runways for arrival vectors to decrease the go around issues at large airports.

| "Twenty Thousand Miles in a Flying-boat", by Sir Alan Cobham |
|
File Description:
In 1927, Sir Alan Cobham, pioneer of aerial refuelling and adventuring aviator, undertook a survey flight around Africa. He was accompanied by his wife, Gladys, and four crewmen: Worrall, the second pilot; Green and Conway, engineers; and Bonnett, cameraman.
The aircraft was a Short S.5 Singapore MkI, a twin-engined, single-fin, open cockpit version of the later four-engine, triple-finned, closed-cockpit Singapore MkIII which entered RAF service. There was only ever one MkI and when Cobham completed his journey it was returned to the Air Ministry, who had loaned it to Sir Alan.
The adventurers departed Rochester, on the River Medway, in the morning of 17th. November 1927 and returned in May of 1928,after a trip of over 20,000 air-miles and one which involved numerous trials and tribulations, delays and frustrations.
The book, published in 1931, provides in-depth detail of the flight so what I've done with this package is to create a blog that will provide updates for each day of the journey undertaken by Cobham and crew.
To relive this epic, all you need to do is to go here:- http://henrycrun.spaces.live.com/default.aspx
Remember...NO nav-aids or comms! :)

| Oahu Scenery Version 1 |
|
File Description:
This scenery sits on top of "MegaSceneryX - Hawaii - Honolulu and Oahu Island", SO IT REQUIRES THE MEGASCENERY X - Hawaii - Honolulu & Oahu Island" photo scenery from http://www.megascenery.com/
This is primarily an Autogen scenery with some custom developed objects for the coast of Oahu.
I used autogens from default FSX for the most part as well as the FSX Acceleration. IF you did not install acceleration, it should not be an issue. you would just not see some of the autogens from the acceleration package. I have also included some custom built GMAX Objects with this package. There is also an AFCAD file for a new fictitious Heliport that is included ("PMMH)".
This scenery package also includes a Mission called "Oahu Sacred Falls Landing". It is a short mission without any surprises or twists, yet I am confident many of you would find it interesting and very very challenging. But do not be discouraged at the difficulty of completing the mission. You may want to turn off crash detection to make it easier if you'd like. The fun is in the journey..right?
Lastly, I have included a fix for my MM_PHNGv1 scenery as part of this package.

| Flight to Area 61 |
|
File Description:
Captain Igor Kringbrinsky of the "Special Air Service" will be piloting flight XX-C4 to " Special Area-61"
better known to pilots as " No-whereland".
As usual he is being moved to the base at the Ust-Kamenogorsk Airport (UASK) three days before the
flight. Using an old ANT-2 he will carry electronic supplies(????) and will also pickup on the way to the
different locations (To be known only before the flight) special personnel that work in these places and
who are coming out for vacations.
As co-pilot you will have to check the plane before the flight and since on this flight you are to be rated,
previous to becoming pilot-in-command for future flights, you will do all take offs and landings.---Carefully
study the maps given to you for the " secret" locations you will land before you reach Area 61.
These "locations" may be on "Roadways", mountains, valleys and even large airports-----
Sorry to say, the Weather this time of the year is "stormy and rain, thunder and high winds may be
expected....This is a hard Mission.
