| Easy Terrain Editing Tutorial |
|
File Description:
Welcome to this tutorial about modifying terrain data. This tutorial will show you a short and easy way to modify the terrain to get a more realistic look in MS Flight Simulator 2002 and 2004. The area with this workshop is the island Ibiza in the West Mediterranean Sea with its small neighbor island Formentera. The modifications are based on the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) data products, available for download.
Everything needed is explained here, step by step and kept as simple as possible. You will work with SRTM To BGL v1.04 (by Matthew Styles, thank you Matthew) and SRTMFill (by 3dnature) - both tools are freeware and available for dowload.

File Description:
This is an update to FSX Airport Scanner to deal with changes to AFX bgl files. The latest version generated some code that FAS could not understand. This version should deal with the issue and also includes our latest on-line updater code. This updater code should make future updates easier to deliver. FSX Airport Scanner will search through your FSX Addon Scenery for airports. It can be used to find duplicates or just give you information about what addon airports exist. Extra information can be seen including the XML code for the airport. Support is avaiable from the Airport Design Editor Forum at www.fsdeveloper.com.

| Palisades SRTM Altitude Mesh |
|
File Description:
Ever wanted to fly down the VFR corridor over the Hudson River and gawk at all the skyscrapers in New York City? ... in your dreams! The Department of Fatherland Security has closed it down.
But, we still have Flight Simulator. Unfortunately, the altitude mesh for this area is somewhat lacking in detail.
This Palisades altitude mesh remedies that. Covers the Palisades cliffs, of course (but no Amusement Park, sniff), and also Riverside, Morningside, and Washington Heights, and Fort Tryon. In fact, all 5 Boroughs of New York City are covered, as well as most of central and northern New Jersey (visit beautiful downtown Hoboken!), and the larger part of Long Island. Also Rockland, Westchester, Orange, Putnam counties and more. And even Bear Mountain State Park.
Approximate coverage: N40* to N42* and W73* to W75*.
Made from NASA Shuttle Radar Topography Mission data (3 arc-second resampled to LOD9 - horizontal resolution of 76.4 meters) using SRTM to BGL by Matthew Styles (available in the AvSim library.) Very easy to use - give it a try.
BONUS: includes simple instructions so that anyone can make altitude mesh for their area from SRTM data using SRTM to BGL by Matthew Styles. Sorry, SRTM data only available for the Americas at the moment. The rest of the world coming soon. Check inside for more details.
No support of any kind is offered for this package - very sorry.

| Traffic Changer final release |
|
File Description:
Traffic changer is a tool to simplify AI for FS9. The user can make flight plans, compile BGL files (using included TTools) and place the final plans into FS9 using a "group" concept. This is ideal for managing fleets of AI aircraft or for users wanting to easily change AI traffic at a single airport. It installs with the 59 default AI aircraft available that are already in FS9, 5,500 of the most common airports and a sample flight plan. A tour makes it very easy to get started. Take control of AI with traffic changer. Freeware, complete installer. Requires VB5 runtimes (which almost everyone already has.) Tested only on XP and Win 2000 ... Approx. 2.5 Megabyte in size.

This is one image collection of 6 objects - small airport terminal, fuel and storage shed and a couple of cones. Requires LOM_100.ZIP, SMALL_AIRPORT_OBJECTS_2.ZIP and import into LOM of SMALL AIRPORT OBJECTS 2.BGL which is included with SMALL_AIRPORT_OBJECTS_2.ZIP. Also included is a set of higher resolution screenshots to upgrade those images imported into LOM. Higher resolution screenshots are suitable for printing an index or contact sheet of images.

| Canadian Rockies LOD 8 Mesh |
|
File Description:
As many of you know, NASA and the JPL have recently released 3 arc second (90 meter) elevation data for most of North America. The enclosed bgl file is intended to display the data more or less as it is, covering the Canadian Rocky Mountain National Parks.
Many people are probably curious about the new data, and this project has been an attempt to satisfy that curiosity in a spectacular area so far unpublished on the internet.
The data yields scenery in FS 2002 that far surpasses the default scenery. The area is also well visited by many people from around the world so I expect that this terrain will be recognizable to more than a few.

| Active ILS - PAUN (Unalakleet, Alaska) |
|
File Description:
As most know initiating the LOCALIZER at certain airports for the User Aircraft/ATC control is not a function at this time when using AFCAD2. If you add a new LOCALIZER runway to an airport such as PAUN (Unalakleet RWY 14) only the user aircraft can use this runway (without ATC commands) when visibility falls below 3 miles. This ILS bgl file adds all NAVAIDS for making RWY 14 a LOCALIZER/DME Instrument Runway by adding all the radar fixes for both the LOC approach portion and the Published Missed Approach Procedures. All User Planes can now ask ATC for the Localizer runway 14 when Airport weather conditions are either VMC or IMC. **** AFCAD airport included if needed ****

| Vernon Regional Airport (CYVK) - Vernon, B.C.; Canada | Updated Version |
|
File Description:
Scenery add-on for Vernon Regional Airport (CYVK) - Vernon, B.C.; Canada. Vernon Regional boasts over 120,000 square feet of land and has become the center for aviation manufacturing and maintenance in the Pacific Northwest. This add-ons places the Vernon Flying Club building, plus a number of hangars on the airport grounds. Includes AFCAD file to add aircraft parking. Scenery was designed to reflect the current placement of buildings at CYVK within the limitations of the flight simulator terrain. Consideration was also given to system effects and framerates. This package requires the NovaSim Gold textures (Not included-directions provided in ReadMe file). This update fixes the missing BGL problem. Full Update- not a patched version.

| KFTY - Fulton County Airport | Atlanta, Georgia |
|
File Description:
This is a modification of the stock Fulton County Airport AFCAD/BGL in Prepar3d v5.4. All parking has been redone to match closer to what is shown in Navigraph Charts and Google Maps. Ramps have been modified to correctly reflect areas that are concrete and asphalt paved. The control tower and windsocks have been placed in their correct areas on the ground. Buildings have been deleted added to reflect the current layout of the field. All taxiway signage are correct and correctly positioned.
Most of the aircraft parking has been randomly placed around the main terminal building of the airport and the Signature FBO. Other parking placed on the ramp East of Runway 14/32.
