| Replacement Dynamic Water Textures Version 8 |
|
File Description:
Replacement dynamic water texture-sets for FS2004 (VERSION 8). This is the full version 8. The default reflections and water colors leave a lot to be desired in FS2004. As an example; The default milky "white/green" texture is highly unrealistic in overcast conditions. The replacement textures will change this dramactically to a much more convincing and realistic "blue/grey", cast, with improved lighting and refections in respect to the sun. These replacement textures will generally give a much more realistic tone and color to the water effects in FS2004. The change is quite dramactic and transforms the flight sim experience to a much greater level of realism. Fully compatible with my earlier versions of "overcast" texture modifications. Textures included are; Clear weather; High noon, mid-sun, low sun, sun-rise and sun-set with a choice of four "overcast" tones and a choice of two sun sets Version 8 has improved sun-set and sun-rise textures which offer better colours and better transitions from daylight to dawn/dusk hours; and a small change to the reflections on the low-sun texture. As an added bonus with Version 8 you have a choice of sun sets to use. Now you can have the very bright "orange" sun sets or select one of the new "golden yellows" which offer two distinct variations. It is important to stress the default FS9 textures are fully compatible with these new textures and they can be used in any combinations and can be mixed and matched with the new textures. For example it may be that some users want to keep some of the water environment textures as they are by default but change only one or two textures. The choice is yours. As a further added bonus a voice control file has been included for "Shoot" which will control FS2004 by voice. It is brilliant and it's free.

| KILE, Killeen Texas airport |

File Description: Instructions: There are 3 folders in this package; effects, scenery and texture.
Create a subfolder under the C:\Program Files (x86)\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v3\Scenery folder and call this new folder KILE.
Place the scenery and texture folders (with their associated contents) under this newly created KILE subfolder.
Place only the contents (not the folder) of the effects folder in the P3D effects folder often located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v3\Effects.
Now start up P3D.
On the menu at the top of the P3D screen click on World > Scenery Library > Add Area. This will bring up the Add Scenery Area dialog box. Click the Browse button and browse to find the newly created KILE folder. It should be located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v3\Scenery. Once you select the KILE folder, click the OK button. This will place that folder in the P3D scenery library. You will notice that the library is organized by priority starting at 1. I have my KILE scenery set as #4 priority but I am not sure if it needs to be that high. I did notice during design that sometimes my ground texture at the airport would act strange and I found that by setting KILE to a higher priority, it fixed that. As a last step make sure the checkbox to enable the scenery is checked and click OK.
You should now have the new KILE scenery available to use.
This package covers KILE, Killeen Texas airport. It is a city owned public use airport located 3 miles east of Killeen Texas. It has one runway that is 5,495 x 100 feet.
Almost 100 custom objects are included in this package. They include:
All hangers and buildings on the airport grounds made from on site photos.
Several buildings surrounding the airport grounds.
All taxiway and runway signs.
All taxiway, runway and approach lighting.
ILS antenna, localizer, etc.
Fuel tanks and parking T's.
Night lighting where appropriate.
Currently I am using the default land class instead of photo real because I couldn't find any photo real that suited my needs.
I welcome your feedback good or bad. Currently this airport is only for P3D. I may create an FSX version if I have enough requests. I started learning to make 3d objects and airports last year and I am learning something new every day. I hope you enjoy!
I plan on improving the night lighting for the runway lights, runway end lights, taxiway lights, etc. to make them more visible from a distance at night. I also want to replace the stock P3D vehicles with my own design and a few other things to come in an updated version down the road.

File Description:
SGA/FFX DC10-30 Royal Air Force 101 Squadron: This is a fictional repaint based on the paint scheme used on the Lockheed Tristar of Transport Command. To the best of my knowledge, 101 Squadron has never used DC10-30's. SGA DC-10 model included - This is a complete package containing the aircraft, panel, gauges & sounds. Credit for the work is contained within the readme file.
Number 101 Squadron was formed at South Farnborough on 12 July 1917, and two weeks later went to St Andre-aux Bois, France with FE2s as a night bomber squadron. It main tasks involved attacking enemy communications and aerodromes in Northern France and Belgium, with occasional strafing attacks on troops aimed at drowning the noise of tanks and soldiers positioning for battle in the trenches. In March 1919, the squadron was reduced to a cadre and returned to the UK before disbandment at the end of the year. It remained dormant until March 1928, when it reformed at Bircham Newton and flew Sidestrands in the day-bomber role until these were replaced by Overstrands in early 1935.
At the outbreak of World War II, the squadron was equipped with Blenheim IVs and was involved in attacks against enemy barge concentrations in the Channel Ports. In mid-1941, No. 101 Sqn became part of Bomber Command's medium-bomber force with Wellingtons and flew many night sorties against Germany and Italy. These aircraft were replaced barely 18 months later by the Lancaster and became specialised in airborne radar jamming to disrupt German night-fighters interceptions. After the war, Lincolns replaced the Lancasters and the unit moved to Binbrook. In June 1951, No. 101 became the RAF's first jet-bomber squadron when it received Canberras, and it was with this aircraft that the squadron was involved in operations in both Malaya and Suez before once again disbanding on 1 Feb 1957.
A brief period of inactivity ended on 15 Oct 1957, when No. 101 Sqn joined the V-bomber force with Vulcans as part of the Finningley Wing before moving to Waddington four years later. The squadron became synonymous with the type, and took part in Operation Corporate, the Falklands Conflict, operating from Ascension Island. Shortly after the conflict, the squadron relinquished its Vulcans and disbanded again, until it reformed on 1 May 1984 to operate VC10s in the air-to-air-refuelling role, and has since demonstrated the flexibility the aerial refuelling offers to combat aircraft in such operations as the Gulf War and Operation Allied Force.
Following the disbanding of sister VC10 squadron, No 10, 101 became the sole operator of the type in October 2005.

| RAF Docking - Norfolk, England |
|
File Description:
RAF Docking was a RAF Station of the Second World War a few miles from Bircham Newton in Norfolk.
It was a satellite airfield for the RAF Coastal Command station at RAF Bircham Newton and was mostly used for overflow from there. Opening in mid 1940 there no plans to use the airfield after the war and therefore the station was closed in 1945 and finally sold off in 1958.
This scenery is a representation of RAF Docking I am not claiming it to be in anyway an accurate reflection of the actual Station, however, I know the buildings I have used were in use at RAF Docking except for the B1 hangar, Docking had an A1 hangar. The station was so busy Drem lighting was installed to enable night operations to take place from the base.

| Grand Rapids with Active Crosswind Runways |
|
File Description:
An AFCAD2 for Gerald R. Ford Int'l Airport, Grand Rapids, MI. This file will give you over 60 parking spots at the airport. Real life airline gates are now provided at the terminal and an extensive GA area is also available for use. Taxiways have been improved, night lighting added to the airport and an accurate tower view is now provided. A cargo area on the eastern side of the airport is also provided, with correct cargo airline assignments. All runway lengths are accurate as per real life. Finally, by using the crosswind runway technique, all runways at this airport are now active for simultaneous take-offs and landings. Credit goes to 'Skyhawk Driver' for giving me the idea of working on a new AFCAD2 for this airport. This is for the default FS2004 airport only.
