| Gloster Meteor F8 RAAF A77-120 77th Squadron |
|
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)
and A-77-949(Sergent E.Armitt KIA)by Sergei F. Vishnyakov(176 GIAP, 324 IAD); also heavy damaged A77-559
(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.

| Microlights - Vol.3 |
|
File Description:
Three more lightweight aircraft for AI use in FS2004, a Guri based on the fsc file Gary Myers supplied with his original aircraft, a Kolb Firestar inspired by K. Johnson's FS2002 aircraft and a Gyrobee autogyro based on my own flyable model, but with significantly reduced detail. Unfortunately, due to the limitations of the FS2004 ai engine, the Gyrobee lands rather more like a conventional aircraft than I would have liked, but it achieves the aim of putting a somewhat different moving shape on the airfield and in the air.
All three aircraft have LOD models, reduced-detail shadow models for improved visual performance and, like my other AI Microlight uploads, the pilot only shows when the engine is running, so, if the aircraft is parked, there's no-one sitting in it.
If you've already downloaded my Irish Microlights flightplans, these aircraft are already included there, so you'll have even more traffic in the Emerald Isle.

| Tupolev Tu-95 Bear (Part 2) |
|

File Description:
Tupolev Tu-95 Bear (Part 2). I present a comprehensive AI traffic model package for this cold warrior of military history, which still soldiers on as a formidable strategic bomber and reconnaissance aircraft. The mighty Bear, with around 500 built, evolved from the Tu-114 airliner, and is arguably the fastest (and loudest) turboprop aircraft in history. A simple no-frills turboprop design combined with a heavy payload and ridiculous airborne endurance (20+ hours); and the Bear has established itself as the iconic Soviet/Russian symbol of strategic force projection, easily the counterpart to the American B-52 Stratofortress. An original 9-LOD model brings this historic beast to the flightsim world. This package contains the "K" series Bears, to include Tu-95K, Tu-95KD, Tu-95KM, and TU-95K-22; with a total of 11 models and 26 repaints. Original aircraft model and textures by Michael Pearson, flight dynamics by Michael MacIntyre. Please read included documentation.

File Description:
This packet includes one repaint of the Supermarine Spitfire IX, of Royal Air Force Battle of Britain Memorial Flight, serial MK356. Circa 2014.
The recent 2013 repaint of the MK356 represent the Spitfire Mk IXc ML214, coded "5J-K", the personal aircraft of Squadron Leader "Johnny" Plagis, the Commanding Officer of No 126 Squadron from July 1944.
For details of this aircraft: http://www.raf.mod.uk/bbmf/theaircraft/spitfiremk356.cfm
To be used with the payware Spitfire 2008 from RealAir Simulation. The Realair repaint kit was used for making this repaint. The following items were done extra:
- Redone all stencils and added lots more, so far i could find information and pictures on the internet;
- Pilot is repainted completely;
- Redone some bump-maps for some more detail (with RealAir approval);
- Several textures are now HD, 2048x2048 pixel for more detail;
- Improvement of the some details.

| HL8010 SuperM livery and Update for Korean Air Boeing 777-300ER |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This file is for the PMDG 777-300ER. This is an update for my earlier file which has been linked above. The SuperM special livery on the aircraft HL8010 has also been added! The SuperM livery represents the collaboration of the K-pop group and Korean Air. Special attention has been given to the underside 'Let's Go Everywhere' slogan and the surrounding blue shades. The livery has been made as accurate as possible to the pixel. This update fixes the issue of opaque windows (they are now transparent and the PMDG-modelled interior can be seen when looked closely). Additional markings have also been added just like the real aircraft (open the screenshots to see these details). The doors now have a white outline like the real aircraft instead of the default PMDG door outline. The contents of this package work in FSX and have been tested. The PMDG 777 also works with P3D but I have not tested it.

| Turkish Airlines Airbus A330-200 PW (6 liveries) |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Turkish Airlines A330-200 installed with Pratt & Whitney engines. This file contains 6 liveries: TC-JIP (named 'Lale (Tulip)'), TC-JIR (named 'Çatalhöyük'), TC-JIS, TC-JIT, TC-LOH and TC-LOI. This file is for the BlackBox (BBS) A330-200 (v0.85 and up). It contains new engine spinners for the PW4000, belly logos for all planes (as per the real aircraft) and other markings common to all of Turkish Airlines' A330-200s. The only difference is the absence of the 'Star Alliance' written logo marking near the L1 and R1 doors. This file was developed for FSX although it may be possible to use it for P3D (no guarantee as I do not own P3D to test it). Please read the 'readme.txt' before taking any action on this file. Some routes have also been added to the readme. Please note: this package does NOT contain all the A330-200 textures that Turkish Airlines owns. Enjoy your flights!

| 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.
