| Springhill Aerodrome (New Zealand) |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
SpringHill (ICAO: NZSL) is a small airstrip between Warkworth and Wellsford, north of Auckland in New Zealand. It is privately owned tarseal strip with offset thresholds giving usable landing lengths of 680m and 700m for RWY 16 and 34 respectively, a width of 10m and a group rating of 5. The runway is aligned 16/34. The tar seal strip is supplemented by a grass strip of the same length but 30m wide. No night lighting or fuel is available.
I decided to model it after doing a roadtrip north of Auckland and taking lots of reference photos of the smaller airfields suitable for the size of aircraft I fly in real life. I am also planning to model Parakai aerodrome in the near future and Kaipara flats has already been modelled.
It contains fully custom Gmax buildings and phototextures.

| Alaska Airfields 1.2 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a pack of three airfields in Alaska that I have modified to look more like the real thing. The scenery is made of ready made library buildings and trees, no custom made buildings and stuff, but it's a vast improvement over the stock FSX airfields. The three Airfields are (CSR) Campbell Airfield, (PAUO) Willow Airfield and (PASW) Skwentna Airfield. PLEASE NOTE: These scenerys are made with FSX Acceleration and Flight 1's Ultimate Alaska X installed. I don't know how they look or work without these add-ons. - In version 1.2 I have added a segmented circle to PAUO Willow Airfield (a small make-up), and I have also added a Dock parking space at 2X2 Willow Sea Plane Base, so you may start your flight at the dock with your float or ski plane (a big change). -

| J F Mitchell TVSB on Bequia in the Grenadines |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Bequia island is one of the northernmost of the group of islands known as St Vincent and the Grenadines, just south of St Vincent. Bequia is a small curved island island, 8 miles long and in general less than a mile wide; as a result the resident population is less than 5,000.
There are two main towns, Port Elizabeth (the capital, on the bay) and Paget Farm (close to the airport).
The airport is built on reclaimed land parallel to the beach along the south coast, just west of Paget Farm; the runway is 3,700 feet long. The terminal is fairly new, or appears to be, though it may have just been well cared for. There are connecting flights by SVG to Barbados and the other islands and these are reflected in the AI.

File Description:
This is an update of my FSX freeware scenery for EDDB, BER (former
Berlin Schoenefeld after its extension to Berlin Brandenburg Airport).
Changes:
- Updated taxiway and apron positions according to AIP docs I got
in 2012 (thanks to Benjamin).
- Updated ILS (has DME) and approach routes with official waypoints taken from
this docs.
- Remove of EDDT and EDDI (EDDI already closed, EDDT should be closed 2012/6/3).
- Rebuild the old GAT area (the planned cargo area there isn't built yet),
updated layout as everything is built by now.
- New tower and SMR (Surface Movement Radar) towers.
- Corrects small errors (taxi labels, lines, lights).
- Parking spots at apron E.
- Modified colours of pier buildings.

| Piasecki PV-2 |
|
File Description:
The PV-2 helicopter is powered with a four-cylinder, air-cooled Franklin engine, developing ninety horsepower. The engine is mounted with its crankshaft upright.
Piasecki has flown his helicopter in several public demonstrations. Once he took off from the driveway of a private home in Falls Church, Virginia, and flew a short distance to a filling station, where he landed and spent an A ration stamp for three gallons of gasoline. The surprised attendant put in the gas, wiped off the helicopter's windshield, and Piasecki took off again, heading for the golf course. A few minutes later he landed right beside the first tee, took his golf clubs out of the small baggage compartment, and proceeded to tee off for a game of golf. The young designer had done what many had talked about; no one had ever done that before.

| Soarfly Airfield Essentials - Object Library |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Airfield essentials is an object library for use in FSX.
We have included a wide range of objects you may wish to use to add some "jazz" to your scenery:
1. Open door DHL hangar
2. Open door Hangar with night lit floor
3. Closed large DHL hangar
4. Small Airfield Control Tower
5. Runway guard lights, wigwags and taxiway lights
Plus others. Also included is our ground illuminating ramp light.
These ramp lights are perfect for illuminating AFCAD airfields. They are a bit tricky to place using ADE so we recommend Instant Scenery, however ADE can still be used to place these objects.
The ramp lights give zero illumination during the day but at night they light an area of nearly 200 square metres (656 square feet).

| Sorted POI global cities and airports pack for FSDiscover! |
|
File Description:
README:
FSDiscover! Global Point of Interest pack.
Here is a poi pack of roughly 147 000 cities, 40 000 small airports,
1 177 seaplane bases, 4695 medium airports and 475 of the largest
airports.
Airports are split up in categories, small, medium, big, seaplane base.
Cities are split up into files of 10 000 cities each by size.
There are 15 files for cities.
The smallest cities are in xaa, xab, xac, xad, and so on.
The biggest cities are in xam, xan, until xao.
You should open the files in notepad to see for yourself which city
files to activate in FSDiscover! to balance clutter and detail.
This has been my main problem with the default populated places list;
there is no way to sort by population size
Compared to the default FSDiscover! populated places here are some
notes:
I have noticed that in the default FSDiscover! set for europe and many
other places, the coordinates are placed like on a "honeycomb" grid
which obviously is not very precise. In general, in terms of city map
precision, this pack should be better.
In the default pack, in an area I am familiar with, a city was placed on the other side of
a river compared to reality. In many other areas, you can clearly see
that the cities are not well-aligned with Ultimate Terrain europe or
even some places in UT USA. My theory is that either data was not super
precise for europe to begin with or that the dataset has been arranged
in the honeycomb grid fashion perhaps to reduce clutter or something.
Mostly though, the default populated places FSDiscover! file is very
useful for really small villages since these tend to be forgotten in
other datasets. The problems come when you want to filter out smaller
villages or airports. This is where this pack comes in handy.
Since no data is perfect, you can use this pack alone or in
combination with the FSDiscover! defaults. Personally, I put the same
files in both "Documents/FSDiscover Files" and
"Program Files/FSDiscover" so I can pick and choose a useful combo
from relevant sets inside the options.
Personally, I prefer the cities from this pack and the rest
(mountains, rivers etc.) from the default FSDiscover! pack.
INSTALLATION:
Just unzip the archived files into "C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Documents\FSDiscover Files"
or "C:\Program Files (x86)\FSDiscover!\geodata" or both!
I do not know if the geodata folder is completely overwritten some
times or not so keep that in mind. (probably safe, though)

File Description:
Jamrom23T's "That 70's Plane" series #1 repackaged with permission for Flight Sim World (FSW)
These designs are based on old pictures of Piper Arrow III aircraft I found on the internet. Enjoy!
N225DL - White fuselage/wings with Green/Lime stripes. Fictitious registration number.
N509CF - Cream fuselage/wings with classic sunset gold/orange/brown fuselage and wing stripes. Fictitious registration number.
N633PM - White fuselage/wings with red/blue stripes. Fictitious registration number.
N4738J - White fuselage/wings with Orange/Tan stripes. Ficticious registration number.
N9392R - White fuselage/wings with blue/silver/blue fuselage to tail only stripes. Fictitious registration number.
These are repaints of the superb Just Flight PA-28R Arrow III. They were created using the Paint Kit included with the commercial release of the product for P3D and converted to FSW version. They are only repaints and will not effect any aspect of the simulator, aircraft performance, your PC or any other electrical item you may own in your home.
*** you need to have the FSW version of the Just Flight PA-28R Arrow III installed prior to adding in these skins. These are ONLY repaints.

| FSX Metal GUI |

Images related to this file:
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.

| Airstrips of South-West France |
|
File Description:
Part two of my "Airstrips of Western Europe" project, these 90+ sceneries are mostly default basic airstrips from FS2004, enhanced with taxiways, parking spaces and aprons as appropriate, to facilitate the activation of lightweight GA AI traffic, primarily over the south-west of France. Hopefully these will allow a degree of continuity between my previous upload (Airstrips of North-West Europe) and the existing freeware releases for Spain and Portugal.
Again, there's no photo-realism here, just a selection of basic 'generic' buildings, more or less accurately sized and placed to reflect the airfield layout as seen on on-line satellite imagery and aerial photography. These buildings have minimal effect on frame-rates, so are ideal for this kind of job. The airfields are aligned as well as possible with the roads etc. in UT Europe and the Genesis Europe mesh, but should mostly be fine in a default installation or other configuration.
A good number of airfields in this area have been neatly implemented in the "Occitania_VFR" package, so I've not duplicated their work.
Also included are some "bonus" sceneries from further north that weren't included in my previous upload. Just copy them over as appropriate if required.
