Modern Smoke Jumpers - Parafoils

File Description:
Thought there might be some purists out there frowning at the previous round canopy. I have completely reworked the FX texture files to allow you to drop a number of yellow-clad smoke-jumpers in the traditional free-fall arch position from the DC-3, JU-52, DeHaviland Otter, and now the C-130. They now sport the modern parafoil chute rather than the older round canopy. 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.

PA-MD-VA Series, Sound For All 39 Airports

File Description:
This upload provides sound for all 39 of the airports in the PA-MD-VA series using Lago's FS SoundScape program. These really up the realism level as that dead silence at airports is just so unnatural. Sounds that play are dependent on the time of day, season,and proximity to the area they are eminating from but Ive tried to balance everything out so that there arent any dead spots and also to make sure the proper amplitude of the sound is played. For instance, if youre in the cockpit the sounds will be muted cuz the doors and windows are shut tight. Step outside in an external view and the sound level increases. Move your viewpoint away from a group of trees that has birds in it and the sound level slowly decreases. Pretty cool stuff I think.... Lago's FSSoundScape required. Edited (and a big thanks) to Shaun Fletcher. Most non default wav files by Len Hickman (more thanks!)

Douglas DC-3 Four Fuel Tank Conversion Kit

File Description:
The default FS2004 DC-3 is configured for three fuel tanks, whereas by design the C-47/DC-3 had four from which to draw. Many airlines using the DC-3 commercially blanked off, removed or never installed one tank in order to maximise payload; they were usually operating shorter routes than were typical of the C-47 in military service, This conversion kit gives the option of restoring the aircraft to four-tank configuration, giving greater range for long duration flights. Offering realistic fuel management, this option can replace your default configuration or, alternatively, add four-tank aircraft to your DC-3 collection. Note that this file will only be of use to those pilots who like to set up fuel and payload properly before a flight; pilots using default FS settings of maximum fuel and full payload will find that the aircraft is over maximum takeoff weight in this configuration.

Pi1ggio P-166S Albatross

File Description:
Thanks to Andrew Spring of www.p166.com!! The third of the coming P-166 aircraft series. I'm going to built the whole family of these graceful twins. The Piaggio P-166A is a light small twin. An Exotic two-engined prop that sold all over the world including America, UK, and Australia. The S version is used by South Africvan Air forces. Comes with a longer nose and larger tip tanks for greater range, as it's a maritime patrol vresion. Its origin is traced Back to the Piaggio P-136, a light anphibian, wich the P-166 keeps the wings, the engines and the tailplanes. The first P-166A flew in November 1957. The aircraft is still in production in a slightly modified turboprop version, the P-166D-P1. This model is 788 Kbs with c.a. 23000 polygons in c.a.170 assemblies. Features Clickable Dynamic VC with non-planar throttle quadrant. Detailed internals. Fully compatible with FS 2002 (pro edition)

Nepal 1 Flight Plan

File Description:
It has been a few years since my last visit to Nepal/Himalaya, amazing place - amazing airfields. Hoping to give you a small taste of the real adventure of flying there I created This FP which contains the following six short routes east of Kathmandu: Kathmandu - Lukla - Rumjatar - Lamidada - Bhojpur - Tumlingtar - Kathmandu.The runways (except Kathmandu) are all grass/dust, although i think that Lukla gots an asphalt one by now.I have used A Beechcraft King Air 350 plane, weather clear, 12.00' local time, visibility 48Km/30 mi. If you want to try it hard (i am sure you do so after a while) change the weather conditions to storm/heavy storm. Included -in friendly printable version- six images as well (one for each flight) which contains a map view and a Navigation log as layedout at fs, so that you can have the hands on the stik all time and enjoy the flights without a stop.

Eastern Airlines B757-225 (circa 1983) IFDG v2

File Description:
This is a repaint of an Eastern Airlines B757 in delivery colors. Eastern originally had its 757s delivered in this variant of its livery to mark the launch of a new type of aircraft, one that revolutionized the aircraft industry. As the years progressed Eastern slowly began repainting its 757 fleet into standard livery and a few even kept the thin cheatline appearance but had a regular tail cheat line used instead of the bold 757 typeface. This is N510EA and was in service with Eastern until its bankruptcy in January 1991. This plane is dedicated to the men and women of Eastern Airlines and to the virtual pilots of Virtual Eastern Airlines (join now at www.eastern-va.com) These are texture files only, my previous upload N524EA.zip has the complete model, simply add this texture folder and overwrite the aircraft.cfg file with the one included and both aircraft will show up on your FS list.

Scotports Volume 1

Images related to this file:

File Description: It is well noted that Scottish Airports are very neglected by scenery developers in FS9, mainly the smaller Airports. Therefore I decided to do a little something about it! - Using the wonderful Airport Design Editor (ADE), I have constructed these sceneries from scratch, after deleting all of the disappointing default buildings and objects. The airports included are 99% realistic regarding runways, aprons and taxiways and general airport layout, however there may be a one or two minor discrepancies due to FS limitations. I have also added fictional ILS to runways which don't have ILS in the real world. All scenery objects and textures are by Sidney Schwartz (especially for ADE), of whom, without his long hours of work, none of this would have been possible. Airports in this package are: Campbeltown (EGEC), Eday (EGED), Kirkwall (EGPA), Sumburgh (EGPB), Wick (EGPC), Inverness v2 (EGPE), Islay (EGPI), and Dundee (EGPN). All these airports are served by Loganair.

CFM International CFM56-7 v4

File Description:
New version of the popular Boeing 737NG soundset, this time exclusively re-built for Project Opensky 737-800. A few changes except the new cfg is a new interior spool sound, making it sound a alot more authentic to the real deal. Also new roll and wind sound to enhance the realism. I've also added the "hum" you can hear just before the spool kicks. In this verion you can hear it from cockpit as the exterior remains the same. I've also fixed the spool pitch because i noticed that in the earlier version the spool was a bit off. The POSKY 738 has very powerful engines and take-off thrust should be like 90%. I've built it after a Ryanair video by Christel Jenny Sinsen where i estimate the thrust being around 90%. This by far the most realistic CFM56-7 soundset today and are very close to the real thing. Created with FS Sound Studio. Enjoy!

Deer Valley FC Resort & Roosevelt Lake

File Description:
Deer Valley Resort at Roosevelt Lake Scenery. - This is a fictious Resort at Roosevelt Lake by Grapevine AZ USA. Its basically a fly-in resort for the Deer Valley Flying Club members to relax, do some fishing, go to the Amusement Park and have a general great time. But the resort is now open to the public. If you dont want to spend the big bucks, there is a small campground located nearby. I suggest a float plane or helocopter for the trip out and back. If you're a competent bush pilot, you might be able to land on the grass runway, but its a very difficult strip. Fly a STOL plane or you wil not make it. Acknowledments: Microsoft: FS X Sdk Scenery function of the Mission builder. Abacus: Scenery shortcut tool. Lee Swordy: AFCAD Ver 2.21. NOTE: This scenery is frame rate friendly, but I would highly suggest turning off ground shadows.

Himalayan Peaks LOD10 Mesh, Volume 1 - Mt. Everest and Kula Kangri

File Description:
Highly detailed terrain mesh of the Mt. Everest and Kula Kangri areas, N26°-29° E85°-92°. 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, a LOD9 "base mesh" series covering the entire Himalayas will be available for those who do not yet have an add-on terrain mesh of these beautiful mountains.
