| Gusev Crater Scenery |
|
File Description:
Gusev Crater is an impact crater on Mars that looks as though a lake may have once filled it in the distant past.
Gusev Crater is about 145 km (90 miles) wide. It is located at 14.6° South latitude and 175.3° East longitude, along the boundary between Mars' southern highlands and its lowland northern plains. The crater is about 3,000 km (1,900 miles) southeast of the volcano Elysium Mons. Scientists believe the Gusev Crater was formed by the impact of an asteroid three to four billion years ago.
A valley named Ma'adim Vallis, which is connected to the south side of the crater, looks like it may have been a river channel that poured water into the crater in the past, forming a large lake. If the crater was indeed a lake, scientists expect it to contain layers of sediments as much as 915 meters (3,000 feet) thick that flowed in with the water. There may be other clues to a watery past within the crater, such as deposits of minerals, such as halite and gypsum, that form when water evaporates. Wet environments are the best places to look for life, which is why scientists are so eager to track down places on Mars that were once wet.
On the 3rd of January 2004, MER-A Spirit, one of the two Mars Exploration Rovers (MER) had landed within an 81 km by 12 km (50 by 7 miles) oval near the center of Gusev Crater. Once settled into its new "home", Spirit will begin its mission of exploring for geologic evidence of the presence of water in Gusev Crater's past.

| VARIG Boeing 737-341 (PP-VOD) |
|
File Description:
VARIG B.737-341 PP-VOD C/N 24275-1637.
The model B.737-341 is the original series 300 builded by Boeing for VARIG(17 exemplaires builded).VARIG fleet had differents variant of the Boeing 737'(B.737-2C3Adv,B.737-241,B.737-2K9,B.737-2Q8,B.737-219,B.737-33A,B.737-36N,B.737-3K9,B.737-341,B.737-3Q8,B.737-4YO,etc)and the planes are the workhorse of the route systeme of the airline.The main technical center is located a Rio de Janeiro Antonio
Carlos Jobim(Galeao)with the most big hangar maintenance in South America.
I have included a serie of 90 Flights to the main national and international destinations,all served with 737 and the timetable and numbers flights are the rights one of this year 2004.
Destinations are revised and actualised like in the reality(Curitiba,Porto Alegre, Ponte aereo=Rio Santos Dumont-Sao Paulo Congonhas,Recife,Salvador,La Paz,Cordoba,etc.
Many flights are corrected to be acomplished with the 737 and not the Douglas DC-10(out of service by VARIG long time ago and remplaced with the MD-11,this last also to be tasked in the future to fly only cargo).
Today only two DC-10 fly cargo services with VARIG Logistica.
Also included a new complete revised AirFile for the 737-300 type(17-04-04).

| Houn, Libyan (HLON/HUQ) |
|
File Description:
Googly scenery for HLON Hon, Libya, a small domestic airport serving the oasis town (which is correctly spelt Houn) about 250 miles south-east of Tripoli. It is the capital of the Al Jufrah region. Although the airport holds ICAO and IATA status, as far as I can establish there are
currently no scheduled services to this airport, so present-day traffic is limited to the occasional charter, cargo or private flight. Flight Simulator 2004 has made no provision for traffic with only a runway provided and this scenery seeks to redress the situation so that you and your "AI" traffic can use the airport. The scenery does not purport to be ultra-accurate. Based on high quality satellite imagery from Google Earth, the layout is proportionally correct but the
added airport features, such as buildings, are built from default Microsoft objects
and add-on libraries so will not look exactly like the real thing. You are not obliged to download and install any additional scenery libraries, but to enjoy this scenery in its entirety, you may wish to. It will work fine, with or without.

| Thompson CYTH in northern Manitoba, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Thompson is a city with around 13,000 inhabitants, located in northern Manitoba beside the Burntwood River. It serves as the administration centre for a large area of Manitoba and has industrial activities centred around mining and the processing of mined products. The version of the airport upon which this modification is based is the original posting in 2004 by CanUK Scenery. I would have made new buildings and a totally new scenery but I have the same problem as Sid and Pete in their later Thompson scenery: almost no photos!?! The update modifies the short end of the mainly gravel runway to asphalt (it was upgraded because it is regularly used as a taxiway) and also adds a later (2010?) gravel taxiway. The other ground modifications add allocated parking spots for fire fighting CL415 planes that are in the new AI, plus a lot more ga parking. You should already have some AI that includes Calm Air to see CYTH as it really is, the HQ of Calm Air. There are other additions including car parks and the usual sundry bits and pieces that inhabit every airfield. The CL415's with Manitoba textures are adaptations of what were originally Ontario planes and included with my post of Geraldton, not the most recent post in 2013, the one in 2007. If you don't have the planes get them from my Geraldton post. The AI version was made from the original piloted version which was by Massimo Taccoli. The AI helicopter was included in my post of Alma CYTF.

File Description:
Googly scenery for VGEG Chittagong/Shah Amanat International (known as M A
Hannan until 2005) - an important airport in Bangladesh that is poorly provided
for in Flight Simulator 2004. These scenery files add taxiways, aprons,
buildings and other airport features, including the military area at the north
end and the general aviation ramps, so that you and your "AI" traffic can land,
taxi, park and take off in a realistic manner.
The city of Chittagong and its port are served regularly by jets ranging in size
from the Fokker 28 to the Douglas DC10 from operators like Air Arabia, Air Asia,
Biman Bangladesh Airlines, Oman Air, Thai Airways International, and turboprops of
GMG Airlines, United Airways and Zoom Airways.
The scenery does not purport to be ultra-accurate. Based on high-detail satellite
imagery from Google Earth, the layout is proportionally correct but the added
airport features, such as buildings, are built from default Microsoft objects
and add-on libraries so will not look like the real thing.
You are not obliged to download and install any additional scenery libraries,
but to enjoy this scenery in its entirety, you may wish to. It will work fine,
with or without.

| FS2004/FSX Boeing 737 Next-Generation (600-900ER) CFMI CFM56-7B Soundpack |
|
File Description:
This sound is intended for use on Project Opensky's models, but they'll work pretty good I am sure on other freeware and payware planes. After month's of hard precision work, I present to you my new realistic and accurate 737NG CFM56-7B soundpack for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 and X. The interior sounds are mainly from a passenger perspective. Once you load your aircraft with these sounds, you'll hear the APU System and Fans in the cabin. You hear the humming sound of the CFM56-7B at idle after you have started the engines. You spool up the engines at takeoff then hear the buzzsaw-like sound of the CFM56-7B engine's fans. Once you lift off and put up the landing gear you will hear a chime from the cabin. It features realistic cockpit sounds like the autopilot deactivation sound, stall clicker, overspeed clicker, gear up warning sound buzzer, flaps lever, rolling whine, and touch-down. I am sure that if you are a frequent Boeing 737 Next-Generation aircraft flyer, or if you're a pilot or flight crew onboard a 737NG aircraft, that you'll pretty impressed by these sounds. Give this soundpack a try, I am sure you won't be disappointed!

| Supermarine Spitfire Mk.XIV RM656 DL-F 91 Sqn |

Images related to this file:
File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the Supermarine Spitfire Mk.XIV by Real Air. It shows Spitfire Mk.XIV RM656 DL-F, which was the aircraft that Captain Jean Maridor, of the Free French Air Force, was flying on the 3rd of August 1944, when he was killed while destroying a V1. Jean Maridor was born in Le Havre, France on the 24 November, 1920. He became interested in flying at a young age. He stopped his studies to focus of this new interest. Maridor began to take many courses in flying. He obtained his pilot's licence at 16, making him the youngest pilot in France. In 1939, he joined the French Air Force and received his pilot's wings in september 1939, continiuing his training on the Dewoitine D520. He joined a squadron just two days before the French Surrender, only to receive the order to burn his aircraft. After the French surrender, Maridor left to go to England with many other French pilots, where he joined the R.A.F. After training, he began flying with the 615 Squadron on Hurricanes. He scored his first kill on the 14th of October 1941. In february 1942, he transferrd to 91 squadron, flying Spitfires, where he scored a further 8 kills, one of which was Lt Paul Galland, the brother of Adolf Galland, in october 1942.
From june 1944, 91 squadron flew the Spitfire mk XIV and specialised in shooting down the V1's that the Germans started sending over to the UK. Capt Maridor was succesful at this too, shooting down 6 of the Doodlebugs before his final flight on the 3rd of August 1944.
On this day, Maridor intercepted a Doodlebug over Rolvenden around 12:33. Flying towards the bomb, he shot at it at 12:39. Although he hit it, the bomb was only damaged not destroyed. On his second attack, he saw the bomb was heading for Benenden School, which at the time was being used as a military hospital. Knowing that hundreds of lives would be lost if the bomb was to hit, Maridor launched a final attack at 12.43. He approached to less than 50 metres to ensure he would not miss a second time. The Doodlebug exploded this time, but the wing of his plane was caught in the explosion and ripped from the body. The plane crashed beside the lake on the school grounds, killing Maridor just 8 days before his wedding. His fiancée has been quoted as saying he would not have hesitated in his attack on the bomb. He knew that many lives would have been lost otherwise.

File Description:
Googly scenery for WBGT Long Banga, Tanjung Manis (sometimes also referred to
under the ICAO code WBTM) - a small domestic airport in Malaysia that it seems
Microsoft forgot to provide in in Flight Simulator 2004. These scenery
files create the airport and add taxiways, aprons, buildings and other airport
features, so that you and your "AI" traffic can land, taxi, park and take off in
a realistic manner. Also added is the missing TMS non-directional beacon at
this airport (on frequency 264.0).
The airport serves the township of Sarikei, capital of the Sarekei district in
the Sarekei Division (are you following this?) of Sarawak in Eastern Malaysia.
Flights are provided by MASwings, a subsidiary of Malaysian Airlines, with De
Havilland Twin Otter aircraft calling here a few times per week.
The scenery does not purport to be ultra-accurate. Based on high-detail satellite
imagery from Google Earth, the layout is proportionally correct but the added
airport features, such as buildings, are built from default Microsoft objects
and add-on libraries so will not look exactly like the real thing.
You are not obliged to download and install any additional scenery libraries,
but to enjoy this scenery in its entirety, you may wish to. It will work fine,
with or without.
