| Some Curved or Angled Approaches, Beirut, Washington Reagan, Lugano and Swiss valleys |
|
File Description:
This little project started from my Air Glaciers package when I noticed how indifferent the AI pilots were to terrain. Intrigued by the work of Jim Vile on his "active approach" series I have experimented with interesting approaches that FS9 has not implemented. Using XML files I created curved approaches for Beirut Runway 21 ILS (inbound flights arc across the city), the visual turn to final for Washington Reagan's Runway 19, the circling approach for runway 19 at Lugano in Switzerland (just an arc in this case) and valley approaches for airports in Switzerland at Sion, Samedan and Locarno. Due to AI limitations in FS9 these have all needed to be created as ILS approaches, even at airports without an ILS. Note that your AFCAD layouts do not need to have ILS added to airports that don't have it. In some cases the approach will be called an ILS by the controller, if you can live with that, you might like these. Note that I've included the source XML for each of the approaches so that you can improve upon them if you wish. Note also that they have been tested with the default Microsoft mesh and an addon mesh might alter the proximity of terrain to aircraft. AI aircraft FDEs will, in some cases, be stretched to (and beyond?) their limits. In the case of Beirut I have included two approaches (BOB NDB and "Wide Arc"), the latter less demanding than the former, in case your AI can't fly the BOD NDB approach.
Note that although the approaches are designed for AI, I have built full procedures for Lugano and Sion for the user to fly.

| North American P-51D 479th FG (J2-K) 'My Pride and Joy' |

File Description:
This folder contains a second repaint for the A2A WoP3 P-51D Mustang, in the colors of #44-11755 J2-K "my Pride 'n Joy", which was flown by Lt. Richard Gomez Candelaria of the 435th Fighter Squadron/479th FG. With six aerial victories to his credit, Candelaria was the only pilot in his squadron to make "ace". Most of his victories were achieved on a single mission on April 7, 1945, when he found himself the lone escort protecting a formation of USAAF B-24 Liberators. Candelaria defended the bombers from at least 15 German fighters, single-handedly destroying four before help arrived. He was also credited with a probable victory on an Me 262 during this engagement. Six days later, Candelaria was shot down by ground fire, and spent the rest of the war as a POW. After the war, Candelaria served in the Air National Guard, reaching the rank of Colonel prior to his retirement. His april 7 mission was shown in an episode of "dogfights", which can be seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BC_yVzUeIUI

| Ketchikan PAKT in southern Alaska plus float planes 5KE and the town |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is Ketchikan PAKT in southern Alaska, 45 miles north of the Canadian border and 220 miles south of Juneau. It is the closest major Alaskan airport to the lower 48 and most flights from or to Seattle pass through Ketchikan en route. The airport is on the southern side of the stretch of water known as The Narrows and the town is on the northern side, with ferries connecting the two. The town side was somewhat modified as part of one of the three Misty Fjords sceneries, so there were already some marinas and docked cruise liners etc before I started this. In addition, Ketchikan Airport had been partly made way back in 2006, and further modified in 2007; I say "partly" as there is in fact no way to accurately make PAKT within the limitations of FS9 as there is a 50 or 60 feet difference in elevation between runway and apron, and the taxiways are actually ramps up from the apron to the ends of the runway. This has a knock-on effect on the float plane and ferry docks on the water below the airport. I can see why the Misty Fjord sceneries avoided it. This scenery retains the original buildings from the Alan Wright scenery. It also includes the modification made by John Hinson, who created the second taxiway to the western end of the runway; FS9 had not included this as the original airport started operations with only one taxiway in place. There are new vehicles on the apron (fuel etc), new apron markings and some parking modifications to enable AI with Boing 737, DC6, Beechcraft 1900, and GA, plus runway and taxiway signage, windsocks, some car parking, freight items, etc. There is a road and covered bridges down to the docks and ferry, and the town side of the water has been modelled to include other float plane docks along with waterfront buildings, including the ship repair facility with it's dry dock (actually a floating dock that lifts ships out of the water) and the Alaskan Ferry Terminal wharf etc. The ferry forms a part of the AI, generously permitted by FSAddon and originally a part of the payware Tongass Fjords package, as are the AI aircraft also included here. There are new waterside buildings that stretch from the ship repair yard, past the shopping plaza and onward to the stationary cruise liners (that were part of the Tongass payware scenery) including float docks for the float plane companies that are based in Ketchikan, plus a new AI liner. The AI is a further adaptation of the already posted CF36 AI and PAKN AI, as listed in the AI folder. Due to the surrounding hills there may be some interference with AI float aircraft, depending on the wind direction, though I have watched succesful Beaver landings with the wind from the east. The combined AI for float planes creates a float plane take off or landing at, on average, 20 minute intervals; this is still well short of the actual busy summertime period.

You can set easily all performance in FMC pages, for Take off, climb, descent and approach. VC fully functional, with all system (Bleeds system, fuel system, Fly by wire). All switches working. ND with Radar terrain (TAWS) and basic TCAS (traffic). All real airbus autopilot mode works and reported on the PFD's FMA : THR CLB, CB, SRS, DES THR IDLE, etc ......Flight can be saved (update automatically FSX flight plan file) and all FMC data are saved.
Flight begin in cold and Dark; Real Start engine procedure.....Please, read the install manual and user manual English and French). A very advanced Airbus panel. FD-FMC is copyright Francois Dore.

File Description:
This continues the series of individual landmark sceneries for use while VFR flying in the area of Liverpool John Lennon Airport (EGGP).
This scenery has been designed to compliment the Liverpool John Lennon Airport Scenery also by DerboSoft.
The scenery is aligned to the Visual Flight / Getmapping VFR Scenery published by Just Flight but is also fully compatible with both the FS2002 and FS2004 default sceneries.
Version 1.0 of this scenery was previously included in the main Liverpool John Lennon Airport Scenery download (before ver 4.0) and should be removed before installation.

| A2A Cherokee VLIEGCLUB FLEVO textures v2.0 and A2A Cherokee Panel in KNOTS |
|
File Description:
Since the end of March 2016 the fleet of Vliegclub Flevo changed. Vliegclub Flevo is based in Lelystad, the biggest GA Airport in the Netherlands.
The PH-VFA is replaced by the G-BJSV. This package contains the old colours of the PH-VFB and PH-VFC and the new livery of the PH-DRT and the G-BJSV.
The real life new livery is designed by me. I've converted the new livery to the A2A Piper Cherokee 180. In real the PH-VFB and the PH-VFC is a Piper PA28-161 Cadet. The G-BJSV is a Piper PA28-161 Arrow II and the PH-DRT is a PA28-181 Archer II. The textures have been tested with FSX only and are only made for the A2A Piper PA28-180 Cherokee.
As option you can change the A2A Cherokee Panel IAS indicator from Statute Miles to Nautical Miles.
