| 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.

| 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

| Default Terminal Buildings Subset V2 scenery objects |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
[Version 2 adds specific compatibility with RWY12, ADE9X, and Sbuilder 2.05. If you have already installed the previous version of this library and are NOT using one of these programs to place scenery objects, you do not need to download and install V2.] Many scenery making programs for FS9 give us access to the default terminal buildings in the FS9 libraries. Unfortunately the FS9 libraries are completely unorganized, so finding a specific shape and color of building can be time consuming. Also, many of the terminal buildings are too distinctive in appearance to be of much use to someone who is looking for simple shapes to use as "building blocks" to create their own terminals. I went through most of the FS9 scenery libraries that contain terminal buildings and chose a representative sampling of simple shapes in the various textures that are available, and compiled these into a scenery object library. This makes it easier to find, say, a two story, T-shaped, yellow textured terminal building. These are not new objects, they are default scenery objects created and owned by Microsoft. I'm simply providing a more convenient way to use them. Previous version had 9300(!) downloads.

| Los Angeles VTerminal (KLAX) 2009 V2 |
|
File Description:
UPDATE: After reports of people not getting the complete file, I have re-uploaded it. The problem was my program that I was using to zip the file. I have since changed programs and fixed the problem. Sorry for the inconvenience.
The LAX Vterminal was originally released to a select few virtual airlines and can now be yours. These were West Express, Atlantic Sun, Empora Virtual, City Bird, Arizona Pacific, and Family Virtual Airlines. The terminal contains three concourses, forty-three (43) gates, and eight overflow parking spots. Parking assignments have not been assigned to any of the gates, so you will need to go through and do so. The terminal was created by Michael Wood and Nick O'Dell. It was designed to fit the needs of virtual airlines, in order to return parking spots in the main terminal to their real world owners. This scenery is frame rate friendly, and will not take up a lot of space on your hard drive. Included in this file are AFCAD's for the default and OceanFlight scenery. Enjoy our scenery, and look for more scenery projects coming in the near future.

| LFMI - Istres/Le Tube |
|
File Description:
Welcome to Istres Air Base/BA 125.
Istres is an Air Base use by the French Air Force and is also a base for the helicopter squadron. It has a large repair and is a large training facility.
It's common to see the Alpha jet visiting the BA 125 during their training. Alpha Jet used by the Patrouille de France.
The Air base is large enough to accomodate all type of aircrafts and even up to the B747. It has 1 major Rwy 15/33 of 12303 Ft /3750 m.
I have included the 15C/33C grass rwy for use by ligth G.A aircraft and other Gliders. Put up on a nice landing and Hot dog will be waiting for you down there! ;)
I have developped all aprons, included the ILS rwy 15 and developped the Tower area, increased the amount of parking due to the space available.
Istres has a tremendous amount of parking spot. I have included the chart as well for VFR traffic.
2 Parallel Rwy to the active one, these are closed! do not mistake them with the grass one! ;)
Have fun!

File Description:
Hello to all you flightsimmers,...After i,v been profiting for years downloading stuff made by others [and enjoying it very much] I thought it was about time to create something myself. here is the result.I hope I did not offend anyone using their gauges because it,s quite impossible to ask every idividual permission for all the gauges I used,but I would gladly take the opportunity here of thanking them for the use of them..........Please NOTE:I did not create any of the gauges used for this panel myself and therefore do not earn any credit for them or whatsoever...........Half of them for instance are of MICROSOFT [Copyright]....I tried to stay as close to the original design of the AN-225 cockpitt, however in some cases I had to alter some things due to the lack of available id light gauges. Furthermore it was not always possible to see wh������� t instrument it was that I saw on the photopicture.Anyway ENJOY!!!!. PS Any comments!? please send them to:Jean Louis Bekkers

| Aklavik CYKD in the Northwest Territories, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Aklavik is a town of 650 or so inhabitants at N68 W135, which means 120 miles inside the Arctic Circle and on the West Channel of the Mackenzie River delta. It is 40 miles west of Inuvik and around 60 miles from where the Mackenzie meets the Beaufort Sea. There is only one airline serving the town on a regular basis and that is North Wright, which is headquartered in Norman Wells and also has a base in Inuvik. Aklavik village does not feature in FS9, so the first thing to do was to add it; not all the smaller streets are in place but it is the right shape and with around the right number of houses. The only building with (partly) correct textures is the school near the airfield. I couldn't begin to model 150+ houses, so think of it as a hand-made auto-generated village. I had to move the airfield over beside the river, so there is a DELETE file and a GRASS file, as well as an AFCAD for AI (the AI will follow later) and a scenery file.

| Frozen & Landable Lakes & Rivers for All Canada Winter Ski Operations |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This "freezes" ALL Canadian lakes and rivers for winter flying and means they can be landed on with skis or wheels. This edition covers all of Canada plus parts of the USA along the border, including Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota, and Montana. It is reversible with an "untick" in the FS scenery library. I have spent some time making sure that the sea and the inlets along the coast do not get frozen too, and also some of the lakes that are close to the coast and rarely get cold enough to freeze over. Along the north shore I went for the peak of the winter with sea ice all the way to the permanent polar cap; this is not totally realistic as there is usually a partially open lead along the coast, but this would be difficult to replicate convincingly. This is really for use with Ultimate Terrain, though it will work without it. The pics show Rockcliffe in the winter with the frozen Ottawa River for real and in FS for comparison; without UT the river would not be in the right place.

| FSX Metal GUI |

File Description:
I designed this for myself to darken the default User Interface for 2 reasons. I have bad eyes that are sensitive to bright objects on the screen, and I like to fly the simulator in the evening hours with the lights turned off in the room. I hope you like my end result.
I also added 2 bonus features. Instead of hearing the Windows/Internet Explorer click sound when you mouse click on a menu item, you now will hear the "Fasten Seatbelts" sound effect. Be sure to back up the original sound "checkc" in case you find the new sound annoying. Secondly, I have included 4 optional Aircraft Viewer images that give the selected aircraft a more airborne look. I will make switching these simple by adding them to the Generic Mod Enabler(JSGME) that I will include in the download.
The look is created using Diamond Plate and Polished Aluminum textures, and modifying the buttons with some more color.
This is Freeware, and I am giving permission to anyone that wants to create their own and upload to any site they wish. I do not wish that you have to mention my name in any credits.

| Forggensee, v2 Update |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This UPDATE enhances the existing Forggensee Water-Airport(EDAF).
Klaus Jone did a magnificent job in creating this scenery for us flightsimmers, and my enhancements do NOT alter any Scenery Objects by Klaus Jone. The buildings are the same. And the number of AI planes and ships are unchanged.
My enhancements modify the BEHAVIOR of the Ships.
But the floatplane traffic is so superbly programmed that no further modifications are necessary.
Mr. Klaus Jone passed away in May 2009, and it is my intention to preserve Forggensee pretty much as HE designed it. Except for modifying the BEHAVIOR of the AI traffic, to spread it out to cover the entire area of Lake Forggensee. As the screenshots I've included illustrate.
Naturally, these updated files require that Forggensee Part 1 and Part 2 are ALREADY installed in your FS2004. My part here was to perform a few tweaks to make the AI traffic spread out all over Lake Forggensee, and ensure that ALL wake/spray effects are visible. As Klaus Jone stated: "There is some amazing traffic on the lake, have a look and have fun!"
