| Val-U-Prop VA: Ernest K. Gann's 1939 Route |
|
File Description:
Taken from the pages of "Fate is the Hunter" this is Route AM-21 that Ernest K. Gann flew as a co-pilot and pilot in DC-2's and DC-3's in 1938-1940. Included are FS2002 ATC Flight Planner legs for the flight, as well as a text file with all headings, NAVAIDS, approaches and some life-saving tips for flying the route in bad weather. This can be used in any version of FS. Can be flown ATC or as a VOR flight with ILS's, or even as an NDB-only flight in keeping with the period. This is a multi-stop flight: Newark to Wilkes-Barre; to Syracuse; to Rochester; Buffalo; Erie, and finally to Cleveland. Each leg has a separate Flight Planner leg. An official Val-U-Prop VA flight.

| 82nd Airborne FX - Desert Camo |
|
File Description:
By request, this FX is for my friends in the Army Airborne and those serving over in Iraq.
These FX files allow you to drop a number of camouflaged paratroopers from the DC-3, JU-52, DeHaviland Otter, and now the C-130. Editing the included text insert (door location) for the aircraft.cfg file will allow them to jump from any other plane of your choosing as well.
I no longer have FS2002 so was unable to test this with that FS version.
I wish to thank Mr. Pierino Primavesi for his kind permission in allowing me to modify the FX files he made for his Luftwaffe version of the JU-52. Visit his site at: http://www.ju52-3m.ch/ for more of the latest updates for the Junkers JU-52. Payware quality for free. You can't go wrong.

| CFM International CFM56-3 v4 |
|
File Description:
New and fresh, reworked version of the B737 Classic soundpack now as version 4!
I've built this exclusively for the Fiftynorth Boeing 737 Classic flight dynamics, but should work
well with FFX models aswell.
This set contains many new sounds;
- New interior and exterior idle
- "Howl" sound for the exterior and interior.
- New Autopilot disconnect sound.
- Exeterior and interior APU
- New roll and touchdown sounds
- New gear and flap handle sounds.
- New interior spool, giving that "sweet", high pitched spool sound.
Recomended thrust setting at take-off is 80-90% depending on weight.
No doubt that this set is one of the very best 737 classic soundset that ever existed and these new sounds will give your old 737 a fresh breath and it is a true pleasure flying with these sounds!
Created in FS Sound Studio. Enjoy!

| W88 Air Harbor - Greensboro NC |
|
File Description:
I decided to make this modification to W88 (Air Harbor, Greensboro NC) simply because the stock airport was done completely wrong. The default version has way too much ramp area where there should be grass runway. According to Airnav ( http://www.airnav.com/airport/W88 ), the runway is 2460' x 65', composed of "asphalt/turf." MS put in a 20' wide asphalt strip, but put a huge ramp right next to it. I've done two things to the airport. First, I severly reduced the size of that ramp. Second, due to the limitations in FS, I simply added a 40' wide grass runway adjacent to the asphalt strip. This gives you the total width called for by Airnav's spec, and also gives two more starting points as a bonus! There's still more ramp than in real-life, but I just consider that "artistic license." :)

| MULTIPLE FS9.EXE: do it yourself! NO TOOL! |
|
File Description:
Hi friends,
Some sceneries request TERRAIN_MAX_VERTEX_LEVEL = 19, some 20 or 21….
Others work better with UNLIMITED FRAMERATE, some work only with frames limited to 24, 25 or whatever fps….
Some Photorealistic sceneries will get blurry when using EXTENDED TEXTURES, others no….
Some aircrafts have a specific joystick configuration; others like helicopters will have a completely different one….
I was personally fed up with spending time tweaking this poor FS9.cfg file, having thousands of different copies in my computer when I just observed that Microsoft offers us a very
easy way to build several FS9.exe, one for each configuration.
So now I have on my desktop several FS9 icons, each one is loading FS with its specific config
Very cool, really and so easy to do!!!.
Do you want to know how to do that in 2 minutes?
So follow me!

| VTOL/Hover gauge for Harrier |
|
File Description:
This freeware gauge adds new VTOL & Hover features to the FS9 payware Sigma/Iris Harrier.
Besides true vertical takeoff&landing, it allows you to fly forward, backward,
sideways and turn, while in a hover.
This solution is based on overriding the normal FS flightdynamics while in a
hover; in short, it's a VTOL&Hover FDE coded in a gauge.
Special thanks to Doug Dawson, who created a gauge that provides for overriding
FSX variables from an XML gauge.
Requires FSUIPC4 (registered or unregistered, NOT included).
The README includes extensive installation and flying instructions, including
how to port your FS9 version of the Harrier to FSX.
Besides the VTOL gauge, it also adds a fuel dump/load gauge, a gauge that lets
you change the vertical ViewDirection in the 2D Cockpit, and replacements for two
FSX-incompatible gauges in the original Harrier package.

| Dublin Airport Tower |
|
File Description:
For use with IFSD Dublin scenery only.
Over the last year I have constantly moved my tower view in FS at EIDW for positions in and around the airport I normally spot at. This AFCAD2 file now has the tower at the right spot and right height in the IFSD scenery so when you watch the planes taxi to runway 2-8, you will actually get the feeling of looking out of the control tower due to seeing the actual window frames from the IFSD scenery in the tower.
I have also added parking for the American 767 that now flies into Dublin to O'Hare and dedicated parking for any Virgin Heavies at the back of the FLS Aerospace Hangers. Also I have added medium size gates to Pier A where sometime 767's and A330's park.

| North American P-51D "Butch Baby" (Wings of Power) |
|
File Description:
Wings of Power Republic P-51D-10-NA "Butch Baby" 362nd FS, 357th FG, 8th USAAF, England, June 1944. "Butch Baby" was Jullian H. Bertram's Mustang, and it was assigned to the 357th Fighter Group. P-51Ds were delivered in a natural metal and silver dope finish, but the 357th FG painted many of its P-51Ds in the field. At times regulation USAAF Olive Drab and Neutral Gray were used, but British greens and grays were often used as well. "Butch Baby" was painted with British Green over U.S. Neutral Gray. The small orange objects with the silver surround on the side of the fuselage and near the center of the national insignia are formation lights. Formation lights were installed on relatively few Mustangs. This aircraft survived the hostilities but was scrapped in June 1945 after a landing accident at Leiston (UK).
