File Description:
Textures for Tom Gibson's Douglas DC-6 - repainted by Manfred Meyer.
You need to download and install the latest Douglas DC-6 base pack with model, sound and panel from the website calclassic.com.
These textures depict HC-ARK "El Pinguino" (c/n 42865) of Americana de Aviacion. This Ecuadorian Company leased and later bought this plane in 1968 and used it, among others, for flights to the Galapagos Islands.
This DC-6 was the 13. built and originally delivered 1947 to American Airlines as "Flagship Texas" renamed later "Flagship South Carolina". American AL sold her 1960 to Aerolineas Peruanas as OB-OAD-545. From 1964 onwards she was in the hands of some U.S.leasing companies and goes then to Americana of Ecuador. They used the plane until 1970 and then it was broken up at Quito after 1975.
The Lettering "DC-6 EQUIPADO CON RADAR" should be on the nose wheel doors, but unfortunately this is not possible at this FS model. So I put the text on the lower bow near the nose wheel bay.

| Lockheed Hercules C130J (v.2) |
|
File Description:
The Lockheed C130 J Hercules is the newest version of the trusty military transport aircraft. With its six-blade propellers and more powerful engines, it can fly higher, faster and further than any previous Hercules. This is my second version of this aircraft (with more than 11 000 downloads of the first one) with an all-new FSDS model. It features animation of all control surfaces, landing gear and propellers; full lighting effects; opening front door and rear cargo ramp as well as a pilot getting into- and out of the aircraft as it takes off and a flight attendant opening and closing the front door. The panel is a photo-realistic rendition, designed from photographs downloaded from the Lockheed-Martin website. It includes a Heads Up Display ("HUD"), WORKING radar unit and Multi Function Display ("MFD") for the engine-instruments ("EICAS"). A sound pack is also included. An experienced Hercules pilot checked the flight dynamics to ensure that flying this aircraft is AS REAL AS IT GETS!

| Himalayas LOD9 Base Mesh, Volume 4 - Kashmir and Jammu |
|
File Description:
Detailed terrain mesh of the Kashmir and Jammu Ranges, N30-39 E76-78. 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, the LOD9 "base mesh" series, with LOD8 and LOD7 "buffer" mesh files, covering the entire Himalayas, is meant for those who do not yet have an add-on terrain mesh of these beautiful mountains.

| Active ILS - KMCO (Orlando International Airport) |
|
File Description:
This is the 3rd Airport in a series of new ILS runways. As most know initiating the ILS at certain airports for AI Traffic is not a function at this time when using AFCAD2. If you add a new ILS runway to an airport such as KMCO (Orlando International Airport 17L/35R) only the user aircraft can use this runway when visibility falls below 3 miles. ATC will no longer use this runway for AI Traffic because FS9 sees it as a visual runway. This will cause ATC to vector your AI Traffic back to 17/35 (old numbers) 17R/35L (new numbers) which is also a Terminal departure runway. This file adds all NAVAIDS for making 17L/35R a Precision Instrument Runway. I have added all the radar fixes for both the ILS approach portion and the proper missed approach procedures, altitudes and intersections as per current published plates. All AI Aircraft will now continue to use 17L/35R when Airport visual conditions are less than 3 miles.

File Description:
Lockheed L-1049G Super Constellation V2 - This re-uploaded version integrates the changes of the 20 May 2009 Update pack released elsewhere.
First flown in December 1954, the "Super G" was the most successful and
prestigious civil variant of Lockheed's Super Constellation series. It could
carry up to 99 passengers, and optional wing-tip tanks holding 600 gallons
each enabled it to comfortably fly the popular long-distance routes.
Included in the package are four models representing aircraft with and
without radar noses and tip tanks.
Natural metal TWA and Eastern textures by
Eric Joiner, KLM texture by Marcel Ritzema, panel textures and additional
gauges by Diego S. Barreto. Model, VC, and texture basics by Manfred Jahn,
panels, gauges, and animations by Hansjoerg Naegele, flight dynamics by Luis
Pallas, wingview angles by Bill Tyne and Andreas Trapp, lights and exhaust
effects by Roland Berger, checklist and documentation by Volker Boehme,
flight test and handling research by Stefan Werner. The 1049 project is
hosted by Tom Gibson's Calclassic forum at
