| RAF Shepherds Grove - Suffolk, England |
|
File Description:
RAF Shepherds Grove is a former Royal Air Force station located 9.9 miles (15.9 km) north-east of Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, England.
The Station was originally built for the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) Eighth Air Force during the Second World War. However the facility was not used by the USAAF and was opened by No. 3 Group RAF on 3 April 1944. The name came from a small copse nearby and the airfield is close to Walsham le Willows in Suffolk.
It was occupied by No. 196 Squadron RAF in January 1945 as a base for Operation Varsity, supporting the Rhine crossing.
Various American units occupied the station after WW2 but ended their use of the unit in December 1958.
On 22 July 1956, No. 82 Squadron RAF was activated at Shepherds Grove as a Thor missile unit. Thor launching sites were built on the main airfield and became operational in 1959.
The base was closed in 1966. Third party files are required - see the readme.txt for details.

File Description:
Italian Air Force Lockheed F-104 Starfighter (Part 1), aka the Zipper, Coffin Nail, Widowmaker, Flying Coffin, or Missile with a Man in It; in untrained hands it resembles a lawn dart, as nicknamed by the Canadians. I present a comprehensive AI traffic model package for this hotrod of military jet history. Going into production in 1955, this aircraft was manufactured, directly or by license, by 6 countries, and served the air forces of 17 countries. Late examples served until 2004, nearly fifty years after its introduction. An original 7-LOD model brings this historic aircraft to the flightsim world. This 2-part package represents the Lockheed F-104 in the service of the Italian Air Force; with a total of 40 models and 164 repaints. Aircraft models covered are the F-104G, RF-104G, TF-104G, F-104S (both fighter-bomber and air superiority variants), and the F-104ASA. I am also including some optional variants with separate manual install instructions. Original aircraft model and textures by Michael Pearson, flight dynamics by Michael MacIntyre.

File Description:
North American F-100 Super Sabre (Part 1). This aircraft, also known as the Hun, was the first of a long success of Century Series fighter aircraft during the 1950s and 1960s. I present a comprehensive AI traffic model package for this cold warrior of military jet history, utilizing original source material from Jake Burrus. Going into production in 1953, 2,294 aircraft served thirty-five years in the USAF and the air forces of France, Turkey, Denmark, and Taiwan. The F-100 was originally designed as a daytime air superiority fighter (with all-cannon armament); but evolved into a capable light attack aircraft which served extensively in Vietnam.
An original 8-LOD model brings this historic aircraft to the flightsim world. This Part 1 package represents the F-100A and C in the service of the USAF; with a total of 16 models and 66 repaints. Original aircraft model by Jake Burrus and Michael Pearson, textures by Michael Pearson, flight dynamics by Michael MacIntyre. Please read included documentation.

699 (a.k.a. Maslul), the Israeli Defense Force Airborne Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR) unit under the Special
Air Force Command (KAHAM). The ORT Israel - the Administration for Research and Development and Training -
operates the Air Force Industry School at Tel Nof.
In addition to the two operational squadrons on F-15, Tel Nof is home to the MANAT evaluation unit which
conducts flight testing and evaluation of aircraft and weapons systems. This unit is designated as the 601 squadron

| EGVL - RAF Little Rissington - Gloucestershire, England |
|
File Description:
RAF Little Rissington (ICAO: EGVL) is an RAF aerodrome and former RAF station in Gloucestershire, England. It was once home to the Central Flying School, the Vintage Pair and the Red Arrows.
Built during the 1930s, the station was opened in 1938 and closed in 1994. The married-quarters and main technical site were sold in 1996 (the former becoming the village of Upper Rissington), but the aerodrome has been retained by the Ministry of Defence and remains active along with the southern technical sites, under the operational control of HQ No.2 Flying Training School at RAF Syerston.
It is now home to 637 Volunteer Gliding Squadron as the primary military unit, who provide elementary flying training for Combined Cadet Force and Air Training Corps cadets. The airfield is also used by the forces as a relief landing ground, training area and parachute dropping area. In previous years, the Royal Air Force estate has been used as a film set, including The Avengers, part of the ice chase in Die Another Day, and the Thunderbirds film. Souce: Wikipedia

| 1946 - Croydon to Beirut by DH Dragon Rapide |
|
File Description:
A letter in the September edition of "Aeroplane" was the inspiration for
the creation of this Flight. Ronald Neal flew as part of the crew on a delivery flight of a De Havilland DH-89 from Marseille to Beirut and listed the refuelling stops across the top of Africa. This occurred not too long after the end of World War 2. I have started the journey at Croydon, with the first stop being St. Nazaire, the port on the east coast of France from which German U-boats ventured. The next stop is Marseille and then the stops referred to in the letter, namely Ajaccio, Tunis, Castel Benito, Marble Arch, Benina, El Adem, Matruh and Heliopolis (Cairo). Thence to Beirut. Dave Garwood created a lovely model of the DH89a for FS2004 and you can find that - and many excellent repaints - right here on Avsim.com. Look for fs9_dh89.zip.

| Alphajet E Esq 103 |
|
File Description:
This is a painting originally made by Ed Wells and worked later by me with his authorization. It is a fictional painting, because there's no such alphajet version on the real Força Aérea Portuguesa. Being the best existent Alpha Jet software we adapted to what we had and with what it would be if it was the same version, hopefully until a better model of the german Alpha -Jet (A) appears. This is still in a very early stage and as such does not represent a final version of the painting, but instead a "wanna be" of what it will be the final detailed version of the painting.
I hope you'll like it.
This is a freeware painting so feel at ease to distribute or share this file with others, as long as no sale or money is made thru it. For a repainting or comments please contact me or Ed.
