File Description:
Gloster Meteor F8 A77-120 of the RAAF 77th Squadron deployed at Kimpo Air Base(K-14)in the Korean War.
77th Squadron started the war with a dotation of F-51D Mustangs based at Taegu(K-2)and was requipped
with the Meteor F8 in April 1951. First operational mission was flew the 30th July, 1951.
22th August was a bad day for the Squadron:A77-128 and A77-354 were lost in colission, both pilots
were reported KIA.
The fighters were tasked to flight CAP missions over MiG Alley and the 29th August was reported the
first lost in combat mission:A77-721(Warrant Officer Guthrie ,POW) was shot down by the KPAFAC MiG-15 flew by
Lev K. Shchukin(18 GIAP, 303 IAD), in the same mission A77-616(Squadron Leader Wilson) was heavy damaged by
N. V. Babonin also of the 18 GIAP, 303 IAD.The first MiG kill was obtained the 8th May 1952, one MiG-15 of the
PLAAF shot down by William H.Simmonds and the second and last the 23th March 1953 by George S.Hale ,another
MiG-15 of the PLAAF. This two are the only confirmed victories of the Meteors in the Korean War; no MiGs
were shot down in the sad day 1th December 1951; this day were lost A77-29(Sergent B.Thompson POW)shot down by
Serafim P. Subbotin(176 GIAP, 324 IAD),A77-251(Sergent V.Drummond POW) shot down by Sergei M. Kramarenko(176 GIAP, 324 IAD)

(Sergent Bill Middlemiss)by Pavel S. Milaushkin(176 GIAP, 324 IAD).V-VS not confirmed the kills of Flying Officer
B.Gogerly in the A77-17 or the shared between Scannel/THorton and Cadan.Actually not MiGs were lost this day by
the Russians or Chineses Air Forces(KPAFAC,V-VS and PLAAF).The first MiG-15 lost in December 1951 was shot down the
next day by Zane S. Amell(335 FIS, 4 FIW) with his USAF F-86A-5.
After this fiasco Meteors were assigned to ground attack, and A77-120 was lost in one of this missions shot down by
AAA in March, 1952. Pilot Sergent L. Cowper was captured and POW.
32 Meteors and pilots were lost in the Korean War( six were confirmed shot down by MiGs and others 5 possible writen off)
V-VS also confirmed another combat mission the 25th August 1951 and the shot down of two others Meteors flew by
Ronald Mitchell and Reg L. R. Lamb, destroyed by the MiGs of Nikolai V. Sutyagin and Grigorii I. Pulov(boths 17 IAP, 303 IAD),
but that was not confirmed by the RAAF to this day.
And for the results:4836 missions flew, 3700 building destroyed, 1500 Vehicles and two MiG-15.

File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the DeHavilland DH98 Mosquito by Dave Garwood, in the colors of Mosquito PR.IV DK310 of no.1 PRU which made a forced landing because of engine trouble in Berne, Switzerland, on 24 august 1942 and was interned. It was evaluated by test filots of the Kriegstechnische Abteilung in Lucerne during 1943, and was later bought by Switzerland in 1944. It was handed over to Swissair and given the registration HB-IMO. It was meant to train Swissair pilots in night flying, but this never came off the ground and the aircraft was returned to the KTA. Its last flight was on 21 august 1946. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by Dave Garwood.

| Around the World by light aircraft - The flight of HG Schmid and HB-YCT, March 2000 |
|
File Description:
On a cold March 2nd, 2000, professional commercial pilot H.G. Schmid took off from Zurich at 11:00 AM local time and so began the first stage of his first of two consecutive circumnavigations of the globe by a light aircraft. This flight was eastwards and on his return to Zurich at the end of the month, Georg took off on the westward circumnavigation. The aircraft used on these adventures was the Rutan-designed "Long-EZ", a variation of the "Vari-EZ". Each day is a separate stage and therefore there is a separate flight for each day, named accordingly. (Some days have two stages). There is a total of nineteen (19) flights. Model of the Rutan is by Olivier Marechal and available from Avsim.com or FlightSim.com. Search for either Olivier's name or the file name, HBYCT_V1.zip. There is also an update, HBYCT_P1.zip.

File Description:
This is a fictional livery for the xpfr.org DR400-140B. The outside is
based on the HB-KFQ livery and the inside on the default livery, both are
included with the plane.
I changed the fuselage and wing colors to teal and orange, replaced the flag
at the tail with the flag of Mecklenburg (a region in Germany), and changed
the registration number on fuselage, wings, and inside the cockpit to D-EHAA
(which stands for Hanse Aviation, no. A).
I also changed the book covers in the cockpit; the blue-yellow one is the
cover of an ADAC travel guide for the federal state Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
Finally, the map you can open in the cockpit shows the region near the old
hanseatic town Rostock, the biggest city in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. The map
is OpenStreetMap as shown in Plan-G.

| Fairchild 24 (PH-FAI) FS537 |

Images related to this file:
File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the Lionheart Fairchild 24, in the colors of FS537, a Fairchild Argus Mk.II which was built in 1939 with serial number R9-418. In the same year it was transported to Europe on SS. "Mauritania" (cargo papers were still available in Switzerland where '418' was registered as HB-EIM). First military registered 43-14459, it later was in service with the RAF as FS537. For a long time this Fairchild flew a regular mail-service in Switzerland. It is currently with the "Early Birds" in Lelystad, the Netherlands, where it has been restored to airworthy condition. I have included two versions, one (FS537) as it may have looked when flying with ATA during the war, ferrying pilots, and one (PH-FAI) as it looks today. Repaints by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by Lionheart Creations.

| USAF Lockheed F-80C FT-805 51th FIW |
|
File Description:
Lockheed F-80C-10-LO Shooting Star USAF FT-805,C/N 49-805 "Seductive Shirley", operated by the 51th FIW, 25th FIS based at Kimpo Air Base in December 1950 at the Korean War.
51th FIW was tasked to adquired Air Superiority in the combat area,but had great problems with the aparition in combat of the superior MiG-15, after the 1th November 1950.
One pilot of the 16 FIS, 51 FIW(LT Russell Brown) was wrong credited with the destruction of one MiG the 8th November; actually this MiG,flew by the Soviet LT Kharitonov of the 72th GIAP landed intact and safely at Antung Airfield.The explosion sighted by Brown was the impact of the drop tanks in the ground.Actually the first kill by the F-80´s full admitted
by the soviets was the 11th Nov-1950,by Clyde J. Whaley(16th FIS, 51 FIW):one MiG-15 flew by the pilot Nasonov(KIA)also of the 72th GIAP.The F-80c had also the triste honour to be the first Jet shot-down by one piston fighter; the 19th Jul 1950 one Yak-9D of the KPAFAC(North Korea Air Force)shot-down with his 20mm cannon the F-80C flew by Howard E. Odell(MIA)of the 36 FBS.
The Korean war very costly for the F-80C, 277 F-80C were destroyed, 44 by MiGs(and not 17 as say by the propaganda of the time).Finally, 49-805"Seductive Shirley" was shot down by AAA near Sohung, N. Korea Oct 30, 1951.A ideal plane for flight with the Flight1"Sabre Vs MiG"(Missions and
campaign in preparation).

Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a repaint for the payware A2A Simulations AT-6 Texan. This repaint depicts the restored Noorduyn-built Harvard Mk.IIb registered as D-FRCP. An earlier, pre-2010 depiction of this aircraft is included in the A2A product, and this repaint depicts the aircraft as it now appears following an extensive 3-4 year restoration by MeierMotors, completed in 2014. This particular aircraft was assigned to the RCAF during WWII, as FS728, and was later sold to the Netherlands AF in 1947 where it was coded B-104. The aircraft was first sold into the civilian market in 1970, becoming PH-SKL in the Netherlands, and would later be sold to Britain as G-BAFM, then to Switzerland as HB-RCP, and finally to Germany in 2001, becoming D-FRCP. Following its recent restoration, the aircraft is finished in overall polished metal with basic RAF trainer markings.

| Swiss Winter 2005/06 |
|
File Description:
This flight plan is based upon the real-world aircraft rotations for Swiss International and Swiss European for the first week of the Winter schedule (i.e. 31 October-6 November 2005). I have made manual adjustments to the Mondays and Sundays, to make everything fit into one-week patterns, but otherwise the flight plan is painstakingly accurate down to the individual registration numbers. With very few exceptions, all flights are included as are actual charter and positioning flights. I have also included the cargo schedule that MNG flies for Swiss, whereas you can get the Lugano schedule flown by Darwin from several other sources on Avsim. HB-IQH was really in maintenance that week, but I had to make it fly one return flight. Consider getting the approaches into London City (EGLC) that I have rewritten. The default ones are flawed causing AI traffic to arrive too high to make a landing. I shall be posting those shortly.
