P-61B BLACK WIDOW for x-plane 6.4/6.51
The need for a true night fighter aircraft was well demonstrated during the Battle of Britain in 1940. Aircraft used to counter German night attacks were not very effective. At the direction of the Air Corp's Carl A. Spaatz, John Northrop submitted a ground up night fighter design, which, designated as the XP-61, first flew on May 26, 1942. The Black Widow was the first aircraft designed from the ground up as a night fighter. Its innovative slotted flaps and spoiler ailerons allowed operation from short airstrips and improved handling; the radar carried in its nose made it the dominant force in the night skies of Europe and the South Pacific. From July 6, 1944, when it claimed its first victory, to war's end, the P-61 distinguished itself as one of America's most unique fighting machines. After the war, P-61s were used in reconnaissance, weather research, and flight testing. The first American flight ejections were made from a P-61.
Only four P-61 aircraft are known to exist today.

File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the AVRO Lancaster by Aeroplane Heaven, in the colors of Lancaster B.1 R5508 of No.44 Squadron based on Waddington, UK, as flown by Squadron Leader John Nettleton from South Africa during the low-level daylight raid on the MAN factory in Augsburg, Germany on 17 April, 1942. It involved six aircraft of 44 squadron and six of 97 squadron, that had to fly some 1000 miles over hostile terrain in daylight at low level. Only two of 44 sqn and five of 97 sqn reached the target, and two more aircraft were shot down near Augsburg by flak. Four 97 sqn aircraft returned to base under cover of darkness, but of 44 sqn, only Squadron Leader Nettletons aircraft, although heavily damaged, made it back to the UK. Nettleton received the VC for this raid, F/L Penman of 97 Sqn the DSO. 8 DFC's and 10 DFM's were awarded to other crew members. Nettleton died on 13 July 1943, returning from a raid on Turin. It is believed he was shot down near Brest by a FW190 of JG.2. His body and those of his crew were never recovered. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by Aeroplane Heaven.

File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the A2A North American T-6 Texan/Harvard in the colors of North American T-6G F-BJBF of Air France, 1962. Originally built as 41-33931 (c/n 88-14948), it went to the RAF as EX959. It was used by the 20 Service Flying Training School in Rhodesia from January 1943 onwards. After the war, it was transported back to the UK, where it was sold to the Belgian Air Force, where it became H-9. It flew from Brustem until 1959. The Belgian Air Force then sold it to Air France, with 14 other Harvards, for use at its flight school in Pontoise Cormeilles en Vexin, west of Paris. It flew with Air France until 1965, when it was sold to Mr Urbain of Cannes, who flew it in Air Esterel colors until 1971. It then went to the UK, becoming G-AZJD. It remained based at Biggin Hill until 1984, when it went back to France as F-AZDU, being bought by Guy Robert, a former Mirage pilot who recieved his training in the '50's on a Harvard in Marocco. In 2001 it was sold to John Colors SL in Barcelona, but it retained its French registration of F-AZDU. It is still airworthy, based at Sabadell in Spain. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by A2A.

File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the Supermarine Spitfire Mk.IX by Real Air. It shows Spitfire IXc ML214 5J-K as flown by Squadron Leader Ioannis Agorastos "John" Plagis of RAF 126 (Persian Gulf) Squadron, based in RAF Culmhead, may 1944. S/L Plagis was born in Rhodesia of Greek parents and was officially listed as a Greek pilot with the RAF. He enlisted in october 1940, and was trained in the UK before being sent to the Mediterranean. He flew a Spitfire off HMS Eagle to Malta, where he soon became the first Spitfire ace with 249 squadron. His final score on Malta was 10, keeping a vow he made when a friend of his was shot down by the Germans. He returned to the UK in august 1942 and spent a year as an instructor. He returned to active duty in september 1943 as CO of 64 squadron, and joined No 126 squadron in january 1944. He picked ML214 as his personal aircraft because of the K on the tail, since all his aircraft were always named after his sister Kay. He ended the war flying Mustangs, with an official score of 16 aircraft and two probables, making him the highest ranking Rhodesian and Greek pilot. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by RealAir.

File Description:
This is a repaint of the C-46 in Riddle Airlines 1959 colors. The freeware C-46 by Libardo Guzman and Tom Gibson is needed for this repaint. Riddle Airlines was a a non scheduled carrier, which mainly focused on cargo flights, but passenger flights were also offered. It was founded in 1945 by John P. Riddle,who flew contract flights between Miami and Brazil during WW2. The airline was based at Miami. In late summer 1945, passenger and freight services were inaugurated between New York City and Puerto Rico. It expaned it's network to all of the Americas and the Carribean in the following years. Due to financial difficulties faced by most cargo carriers in ther 1950s, Riddle also accepted both civilian and military contracts and strengthened its fleet whenever possible. However, Riddle continued to face deep financial troubles, and in June 1962 all services were suspended. This crisis led to a reorganization of the airline in July 1962 under an entirely new management team, and the airline was back in the air thereafter. On November 29 of that year, Riddle was renamed Airlift International. This Riddle C-46, N74178, flew with the airline from 1960 to 1963. This repaint was tested on FSX-SE. Textures are 32bit bmp. It should work on FSX, P3D v1-3, & FS2004.

File Description:
The members of Military AI Works are proud to bring you this freeware AI package, produced by Mike Guenthner in conjunction with Military AI Works and adds the three recently acquired KC-135E aircraft of the Chilean Air Force (FACh) as well as their C-130B aircraft to your FS9 skies.
This package is the first release of the MGAI KC-135E model which is based on the original MAIW KC-135R AI model and shares the same animations and features as its newer cousin. The Henry Tomkiewicz C-130 AI models round out the included military aircraft in this package.
These three Hercules AI aircraft were originally released in 2007 as part of the "MAIW Exotic Alberts" package. If you have previously installed the "Exotic Alberts Chile" package, you should remove all contents from that package prior to installing this package. We have updated the textures for these C-130B aircraft as well as made some other minor changes to them which reflect the changes that have occurred since 2007.

File Description:
Thank you for downloading my first flightplan set in well over two years. While I'm not entirely satisfied with the results of this effort, enough changes in destinations, liveries, and aircraft numbers should be sufficient for those seeking an update to the two year old plans currently available.
The schedule used in the compilation of this flightplan set came directly from Jetblue's desktop schedule. Note: These flightplans do not include any of the charter flights Jetblue is well known for but do include the new routes and frequencies to Jamaica and elsewhere. For painters, here is an opportunity to work on the new Jetblue livery, Blueberries; three of which are currently in the JBU fleet.
JetBlue Airways is an American low-cost airline owned by JetBlue Airways Corporation (NASDAQ: JBLU). The company is headquartered in the Forest Hills neighborhood of the New York City borough of Queens.[2] Its main base is John F. Kennedy International Airport, also in Queens.
