| Ota Air Base |
|
File Description:
The Ota Air Base (BA2), created on December 31, 1937, was inaugurated on April 14, 1940, near the town of Ota, about 50KM from Lisbon (Portugal). Lodged aircraft such as Gloster Gladiator, Junkers JU-52, Junkers JU-86, Hawker Hurricane and Supermarine Spitfire. In 1953 are received the first jet aircraft of FAP, two De Havilland Vampire and the first 25 planes Republic F-84 G Thunderjet, making BA2 the most important Air Force Base until the end of the 1950s. In 1960 the BA2 changed radically, no longer a basis for an Operational Base Instruction. In November 1976 was created the Centro de Instrucao 2 (CI2), for elementary education pilot (with DHC Chipmunk), radar experts and the integration of training schools and military preparation technique. In 1992 the designation of Air Base 2 is amended to Centro de Formacao Militar e Tecnica da Forca Aerea (CFMTFA) which gives the training military, humanistic, scientific and technical staff of the Air Force, whose scope is not covered by other organs of the Air Force, with the aerodrome is currently closed to air activity. This scenery was the fact that it has in the FS aircraft that operated in Ota, such as the DHC Chipmunk, the Republic F-84G or the Junkers Ju-52. This scenary was made in ADE9X. Tested in FSX, I do not know if it works in FS2004.

Grumman HU-16 Albatross 2.1
Greg Pepper, Michael Verlin
May 18, 2012
I am privileged to be honored with the custodianship of this model.
Greg Pepper is no longer with us. I wish to honor his memory and I've made a few modifcations to enhance this aircraft.
WHAT'S NEW FOR 2.1
The flight model is the most significant change. The flight model has been enhanced by the use of Jerry Beckwith's AirWrench.
The performance of the Albatross is now much closer to the parameters published for it. I've also adjusted the contact points for the hull.
Please make sure you adjust the fuel and payload before flying. This is a very heavy aircraft, and will be very sluggish if you attempt flight with full tanks and a full payload.
I've also added a few liveries, and modified several others. The colors and lettering of the U.S. Navy versions have been revised. The font the Navy uses is USN Long Beach. The paint colors are accurate now as well. You will also find new spin prop textures.
I've also slightly revised the original U.S. Air Force HU-16B and two of the U.S. Coast Guard liveries.
New for this release: U.S. Navy VXE6 UF-1L triphibian that served in the Antarctic, Chalk's G-111 and two new private liveries.

| ZSGS - Zhuhai Janwan Airport - Zhuhai, China |
|
File Description:
The Zhuhai Sanzao airport (ZGSD/ZUH, China), close to Macao, was built on request of someone who found it included in the FMC of PMDGs 737NGX, but missed in FSX. I used ADE and the Google based old version 2 of Plan-G (thanks to both authors) and some charts being available in the internet. However, it is equipped with standard buildings which are roughly adapted to the real dimensions well. Lighting, windsocks, taxisigns and moving jetways. Of course I added both ILS as well. There is a big exhibition apron on the airport which is modeled but blocked for AI traffic. You will see the lines of the taxiways nevertheless. The latest temporary chart (Nov 2012) shows a third apron which is not realised and I'm not planning to do so (obviously the whole site is still under construction).
As being built on a FSX island (which is now a peninsula) and default coast lines not fitting to the real position of the airport (Rwy05 was hanging in the water) I decided to compromise in a way that I corrected the area in the vicinity of the airport but respected the remaining part as it was in the default scenery. The attached pictures should give an impression even if I'm not using the pure default scenery. Therefore this little patch should be compatible to advanced mesh sceneries.

Images related to this file:
File Description:
The repaint features Global Airways' N79000, an early production Douglas C-54 (c/n 3058) built at the Douglas factory at Santa Monica, CA, and delivered to the USAAF on February 8, 1943 as 41-37272. In 1946 the Civil Aviation Administration took her over as NC79000. Having been converted to DC-4 standard, she was bought on April 11, 1951 by Eastern Air Lines as N79000 '721'. In May 1955 she was sold and served many users such as Northwest, Transocean and World. In 1960 California Airmotive became the owner of the C-54. During September and October 1960 the C-54 was leased by Global Airways, a company based in Philadelphia, PA, from 1946 to around 1960. (founded by Simon Bolnick and Joseph Raphael; passenger charter operations included fishing and hunting charters to Canada.) In May 1961 the C-54 was sold as D-ADAM to Continentale in Germany. Already in December 1962 Continentale went bankrupt and the aircraft was stored in the open at Hamburg. In July 1963 Aviation Traders (Engineering) Ltd purchased the C-54 for conversion to Carvair car-ferry aircraft. As it turned out, the condition of the C-54 was extremely poor (corrosion on many places on the wing spars) so makeshift repairs were done before the aircraft was ferried to Stansted for its rebuild to Carvair G-ASKN.
Textures only. You will need Jens B. Kristensen's FSX Douglas DC-4 & C-54 (DC4_V30X.ZIP). Repaint by Maarten Brouwer.

Images related to this file:
File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the A2A North American T-6 Texan/Harvard in the colors of North American T-6G F-BJBF, 1970. Originally built as 41-33931 (c/n 88-14948), it went to the RAF as EX959. It was used by the 20 Service Flying Training School in Rhodesia from January 1943 onwards. After the war, it was transported back to the UK, where it was sold to the Belgian Air Force, where it became H-9. It flew from Brustem until 1959. The Belgian Air Force then sold it to Air France, with 14 other Harvards, for use at its flight school in Pontoise Cormeilles en Vexin, west of Paris. It flew with Air France until 1965, when it was sold to Mr Urbain of Cannes, who flew it in bare metal with a checkered rudder until 1971. This is the paintscheme depicted here. It then went to the UK, becoming G-AZJD. It remained based at Biggin Hill until 1984, when it went back to France as F-AZDU, being bought by Guy Robert, a former Mirage pilot who recieved his training in the '50's on a Harvard in Marocco. In 2001 it was sold to John Colors SL in Barcelona, but it retained its French registration of F-AZDU. It is still airworthy, based at Sabadell in Spain. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by A2A.

| RFS New improved and realistic Afcads for TNCM,TFFJ, and SABA/TNCS |
|
File Description:
Make the three FlyTampas airports even more realistic. These Files are for Flight simulator enthusiasts, who prefer realism. These Afcads are optimized for AI Traffic. FlyTampas FlyMarten is very realistic yet, but these files even optimize this very good scenery addon.
These files are improved afcads for the three FlyTampa FlyMarten airports St. Marten (TNCM), St. Barthélemy (TFFJ) and Saba (SABA/TNCS). They are on the basis of the three original afcads from Flytampa, but there are a few differences between the old and the new version: 1. AI Traffic does not make the u-turns in the grass, but they make the u-turns on the provided u-turn areas at the ends of the runways 9 in TNCM, 10 in TFFJ and 12 und 30 SABA. 2. Landing and Takeoff on runway 27 in TNCM and Takeoff on runway 28 in TFFJ is forbidden; it is not possible to prohibit landing, but allow takeoff. So I compound, that all flight movements in TNCM will be performed on RWY 9. 3. At all of the three airports tower frequencies replace AFT, e. g. "Saba Traffic". 4. In SABA and TFFJ I removed few gates, because the pushbacking aircrafts taxied into each other when using the old file. Important: These Files are functional only if FlyTampa-Marten is installed on your computer. There are also the original files in the backup folder.

| Airspeed AS.5 Courier |
|
File Description:
FSDS V3.0 Airspeed Courier.
Has reflective Textures, usual animations, 2D Panel using all default Gauges plus a VC.
The Airspeed AS.5 Courier was a British six-seat single-engined light aircraft that saw some use as an airliner. Production aircraft were built by Airspeed (1934) Limited at Portsmouth. It first flew on 10 April 1933 and was the first British type with a retractable undercarriage to go into production, with a total of 16 built.
The prototype Courier was designed by Hessell Tiltman (co-founder of Airspeed Limited) and was built in 1932 by Airspeed at York for an attempt by Sir Alan Cobham to carry out a non-stop flight to India, using airborne refuelling. Airspeed moved from York to Portsmouth before the Courier G-ABXN first flew on 10 April 1933. The Courier was a wooden low-winged cabin monoplane; it had a novel feature for the day of a retractable undercarriage. The prototype was powered by an Armstrong Siddeley Lynx engine. The prototype had two minor accidents, in April 1933 at Portsmouth and in June 1933 at RAF Martlesham Heath. The aircraft was repaired on both occasions.
After a year spent perfecting airborne refuelling, Alan Cobham took off from Portsmouth in the prototype Courier on an attempted flight to India on 24 September 1934, being refuelled from a Handley Page W.10 before making a forced landing at Malta due to a broken throttle.

| FSX Canadian Airlines (Concept) Boeing 737-MAX10 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a repaint for the amazing TDS Boeing 737-MAX10. It includes the base model, high-quality textures, a VC, and custom ground service vehicles.
Canadian Airlines never flew the Boeing 737-MAX10, as by the time the company was absorbed by Air Canada in 1999 the aircraft did not exist. Canadian Airlines did fly a fleet of 77 737-200's and -300's. However, in our new universe, Canadian Airlines has taken delivery of one single Boeing 737-MAX10, available to fly any route of your choice. It flies under the registration C-FCDS and the tail number 731.
Livery Info
This is a concept livery created completely by me. I'd like to think if Canadian Airlines still existed, they would be thinking about rebranding into this wonderful, modern livery. It features Canada Goose on the tail and red and blue styling representing the mountains and sea; two of Canada's most stunning natural features. The engines are also splashed with some red, and the Canadian Airlines Chevron adorns the belly of the aircraft, as well as on the Sharklet wingtips.
MAX VC and Cockpit Info
This aircraft includes a VC updated to closer resemble the true-to-life MAX cockpit. The VC is the Microsoft/Alejandro Rojas Lucena/FSND base modified by Speedbird77 including gauges by G. Munro. I have also modified the 2d panel. I increased the size of the PFD and MFD to better fill the panel. If you don't like this modification, you can search for the original panel included in the base model.

File Description:
Textures for Lockheed R7V-1/C-121J by Team 1049 - Roland Berger, Volker Boehme, Manfred Jahn, Luis Pallas, Bill Tyne and Stefan Werner. Repainted by Manfred Meyer.
A working installation of the G and H Super Constellation packs (L1049H.ZIP, L1049GZIP and r7v-1.ZIP)is required, use the 1049vc_rf model for this textures!
This aircraft was built 1953 as a R7V-1 BuNo 131643 for US Navy (c/n 4144) and 1960 redesignated as C-121J. Serving whis the Point Mugu Missile Range it was known as the "Ole Blue from Point Mugu". 1974 withdrawn from use and stored at Davis Monthan, she was sold in May 1981 to William "Winky" Crawfords Northern Peninsula Fisheries Corp. and reg. N4247K for hauling salmon in Alaska. After modification work to civil freighter in 1987 the Connie went to World Fish & Agriculture Inc. Cold Bay Alaska, another Crawford Company. Now it was the plan to hauling thunafish from Palau Island to Nagoya in Japan. It was intend to carry 38 000 lbs of fish per trip but only 33 000 lbs were practial. But the contract could not be fullfiled because no high grade AVGAS was available at Nagoya. The aircraft has to carry return fuel in drums, which reduced the payload further to only 15 000 lbs.
Only a few roundtrips were flown in 1988 and then the Connie was impounted and stored at Manila apt. due to lawsuit actions with the contractors. She remains abandonded in open storage at Manila until 2014 as the Quantas Museum from Australia bought her in auction for spares.
