| S77 Magee Airstrip |
|
File Description:
This airstrip lies in the Coeur D'Alene national forest region right in the mountains, but FSX has it badly misplaced, right in the middle of a mountain, so you have the horrible looking cliffs on each side and front and back too, whereas the real airstrip is in a valley alongside and actually looks like a very nice spot to make a landing. I redid the airfield with ADE and also did the landclass for the valley to improve the overall appearance, using google earth as a reference.
I also added a small taxiway and parking, with hold short nodes, these are not part of the real world strip, but if you want AI planes to fly in and out of these strips then you need those features, otherwise the AI will just vanish.

| Southern California Navy Outlying Fields |
|
File Description:
Two unique WWII-era Navy outlying fields.
Hourglass Field:
This is a very simple representation of a satellite field of Kearny NAAS, later Miramar NAS. Hourglass field was originally built in the 1930s and was retained by the navy until 1962 when the site was sold to the San Diego Community College district.
Miramar Community College was built on the site in 1967.
The site was popular with drag racers during the 1950s.
Mile Square:
This is a very simple representation of what was originally a satellite field of Los Alamitos NAAS during WWII and the 1950s and was later reassigned as a helicopter practice field to Tustin MCAS, until it was abandoned in the 1980s.
The airfield was covered by a golf course in the early 2000s.

| Fort Resolution CYFR in the Northwest Territories, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Fort Resolution is on the south side of Great Slave Lake, 75 miles east of Hay River and just west of where the Slave River flows into the lake from Fort Smith. Fort Resolution, the oldest community in the Territories and once a vital link in the fur trade business, is a small town with a population of around 500. It was not included in the original FS9 or Ultimate Terrain so I have added it here.
The airfield is next to the town on the lakeshore. The runway is 4,000 feet of gravel with a displaced threshold at the southern (town) end; it is lit and there is PAPI. There are no scheduled flights to Fort Resolution, just occasional charters; the AI includes a stock FS9 Cessna and a Wasaya Airways PC12.

| Supermarine Spitfire P7346 PR-M |

File Description:
Repaint for the A2A Wings of Power III Spitfire by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by Martin Catney: Supermarine Spitfire IIa P7346 PR-M was the aircraft flown by Belgian ace Jean Offenberg, while flying with 609 squadron from Biggin Hill. He shot down his first aircraft, a Dornier during the German attack on Belgium, and later managed to escape via Corsica and North Africa to England, where he joined the RAF. While on a lone 'training mission' near Cherbourg, he shoots down three aircraft, which earns him the DFC. He later joins 609 Squadron, where a Belgian flight is being formed. Jean Offenberg is killed during a training accident on 22 january 1942, when a Spitfire from another squadron performs a mock attack and collides with him.

| Igloolik CYGT in Nunavut Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Igloolik is a village of 1,600 or so inhabitants at N 69 22 W 81 49 on Igloolik Island, off the northeast corner of the Melville Peninsula. It's name means approximately "Place With A House". The village does not feature in FS9 but is included in this scenery with approximately the right shape, as were the series of northern sceneries before this one. The airfield runway is 4,095 feet of gravel 100 feet wide and is at 173 feet above sea level. There is a gradient to it, but unfortunately this cannot be replicated in FS. I added the roads, a new airfield background, plus of course there is the scenery file and the AFCAD and AI, which has two planes visiting, a First Air HS748 and a Canadian North Dash 8-100.

| National Airlines Republic Rainbow RC-2 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
The Republic Rainbow was a proposed commercial version of Republic's military XF-12/XR-12, a high speed recon plane developed at the end of WW2. With four Pratt & Whitney R-4360 engines, a top speed of 462 mph, and a service ceiling of 45,000 feet, the Rainbow boasted outstanding performance for its day. The Rainbow had one of the highest power to weight ratios of any multi-reciprocating-engine airplane. It could maintain a sea-level rate of climb of 1,680 feet per minute on three engines and 320 feet per minute on just two engines. Although several airlines initially ordered the Rainbow, due to a changing business climate it proved too expensive compared with airliners such as Douglas' DC-6 and no prototypes were ever built.

| Flight Assistant 2.2 |
|
File Description:
The Flight Assistant - the successor of FS 2002 FA - is a program that provides a virtual co-pilot for flight simulation enthusiasts. You can give commands using a microphone which the co-pilot executes then. For example, one could give the command "flaps up", and then the flaps will be raised automatically. Furthermore, the co-pilot responds to your commands, so that you receive a confirmation. The program is nearly fully configurable. You are able to create new commands and even to edit the existing ones. An optional "Speak" key lets the PC only recognize commands when you press and hold down a certain key. Flight Assistant should work together with every(!) flight simulation without any problems. New in version 2.2: A Spanish translation. Furthermore, the commands are now displayed in an alphabetical order.

| PMDG 747-400 PAX Tutorial Long Haul Flight |
|
File Description:
This is a tutorial for the PMDG 747-400 PAX simulated aircraft. The flight covered is from Heathrow London, to Los Angeles International. The tutorial covers and explains all aspects of this flight from fuel preparation, flight plan preparation, to pre-flight checks and setup, flying, cruising, descending, holding, approach, landing and shutting down. Those aspects that are not covered in detail but are relevant to a long haul flight of this kind are mentioned and also explained. I have tried to be as comprehensive with my illustration and descriptions as possible, this is more of a walkthrough than a switch pressing instruction manual, as a result a great deal of explaination is included. The tutorial is 211 pages, with many colour images, so please be aware of this if you decide to print.

| Aero 145 for AI |
|
File Description:
Aero 145 (Czechoslovakia)
Four or five seat light twin aircraft manufactured in the late 1940's through to 1961. More than 700 Aero 145s were produced in their various manifestations.
While it has been made for AI purposes it is actually a pleasant aircraft to fly and so I have left a link to a DC3 panel for your flying pleasure.
This has been modelled with Gmax v1.2 using a minimum number of polygons, and has animated landing gear, ailerons, flaps, elevators and rudder. It has 4 LOD models and a single texture set and is extremely frame rate friendly.
It is designed specifically to enhance the AI aircraft population and to use with the marvellous GA-Traffic program by Markus Brunner .
Three textures and a paintkit are included.
