| Boeing B-17G "Sally B" G-BEDF |
|
File Description:
This is a repaint only for the FSX Wings of Power II Boeing B-17G Flying Fortress, in the markings of "Sally B", the UK's last remaining airworthy B-17. One of the last Flying Fortress built at the Lockheed-Vega plant in Burbank, California, this aircraft was delivered new to the USAAF on June 19, 1945. Later, it was operated as a mapping surveyor in France before being brought to England in March 1975. In 1982, Ted White, the man who was responsible for bringing the aircraft to England, was tragically killed when his Harvard crashed at an air rally in Malta. In memory of Ted White, the inner starboard cowling will always be painted in yellow and black checkers, the same way Ted White's Harvard cowling was painted. For the past 31 years, "Sally B" has continued to fly, under the leadership of Elly Sallingboe and with the help of a dedicated team of volunteers. In 1990, "Sally B" played lead role in the movie "Memphis Belle," and continues to wear the same scheme she did during filming, with the exception of the Sally B nose art and checkered cowling.

File Description:
FS2004 Scenery for KPMD Palmdale AF A huge 5,800 acres/23 km² airfield that has somehow been overlooked by addon developers. almost all hangers and buildings are custom built due to their uniqueness to KPMD. Most of the facilities are owned by private contractors and serve as a manufacturing plant
for aircraft used by the United States .Rockwell's Palmdale assembly facility is where Space Shuttle came together
and were assembled and tested. Upon completion, the Shuttles were turned over to NASA for transport overland
to Edwards Air Force Base, California.
The airfield was opened in the early 1930s.At the outbreak of the Korean War in 1950, the U.S. Air Force realized a need
for a location for use in final assembly and flight testing of military jet aircraft, away from major population centers but close enough to the major
centers of aircraft design and production .Year round excellent flying weather was also a prerequisite. The land which
became AF Plant 42 fit all these criteria. Therefore the USAF bought the facility in in 1951.In the 1960's Lockheed
relocated to Plant 42 from its original Burbank, Ca .

The DC-3 AirVeteran FINNISH Airlines livery textures
Day and night bitmaps are for the Leif Ohlson´s X-Plane 6.30+ DC-3
by: Miguel Angel Alvarez Gallardo. Spain. Nov. 2002
The first time I saw this pretty plane was on the model made by Jam Visser for fs2000 (TM), and I fall in love with it,
as far as I take the textures from his plane and adapted to the great ( genial ! ) DC-3 for X-Plane by Leif Ohlsson.
I asked Jam Visser several post, but I never released it!
The next livery for Leif Ohlsson plane was the SAS livery " Daisy " and this time it was released. It liked Leif Ohlsson
so much that He told me We could make a group!
I began to design a new bare metal base texure in order to release several liveries, and when it was made, I decided
release another again the AirVeteran FINNISH Airlines, but this time with a textures enterely by my own!
I think it´s better than the first for this plane and I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed desingnig it!
These textures are freeware!
But: They can´t be used in any way for comercial purposes, neither can be manipulated or alter in any way.
These textures only can be distribute in this original package!
These textures are released as there and no responsability in any way will be derivated from its use
These textures can´t be used for other authors or other simulators, neither manipulated or alter in any way for any purposes
without my permission.
They have been the result of a lot of work and with the unestimable help of Leif Ohlson.
These textures are as the real DC-3 fuselaje.
Enjoy!

| Burke Lakefront Airport (KBKL), Clevland, Ohio |

File Description:
File Description:
This airport was made using Google sketch up 8, Airport Facilitator X and Instant Scenery 2. Burke Lakefront Airport is a general aviation airport located next to Lake Erie in Cleveland, Ohio. I have made custom 3D buildings using Google sketchup for the airport. This update makes it so that all the buildings will show because some people were having problems with the buildings. All the buildings have photo textures to make it closer to real life. The update also makes it so that the airport ICAO is not included in the airport name and an installer program is included. I put static aircraft on the ramp, airport vehicles and more fuel trucks. I added more parking and fuel spots. I also made a parking lot full of cars. If you choose to start off at a DOCK gate, you will start off inside one of the custom hangars. Starting off or taxiing inside of a hangar will cause a crash (unless you have crashes turned off). I added a helipad located near the FBO. I have also included the aviation high school, that is located at the northeast, and boats that are right next to it in the water. There will be more objects at the airport if your scenery complexity is set to normal (such as vehicles, aircraft, and fuel trucks). Tower view is from the roof of the control tower. This was all made based on Google Earth satellite imagery and Bing Maps. There are no night textures for the custom buildings. These will be added in a future version. Please read the readme for instructions on how to install. You do not need the original file for this update to work. This is for flight simulator X only. By Tyler Lawrence.

| Boeing 737NG CFM56-7B Ultra Effects Edition |
|
File Description:
SkyHigh Audio Simulations is proud to present what is quite possibly the most realistic sounding Boeing 737NG sound pack available! This sound pack is designed specifically for the PMDG 737NGX, and will not work properly in any other 737NG aircraft add-ons in MS FSX, or Prepar3D. Seperate 737NG versions for the freeware TDS, Vistaliners/Kittyhawk, default 737-800, and other 737NG add-ons will follow shortly.
We have gone through great lengths to make this sound as realistic as possible through all stages of flight and through all dimensions of the exterior view, as well as the interior points of view. These sounds will raise the bar for all future jet sounds for Flight Simulator X!
One new and amazing feature in this sound is the interior 3D Sound Cone environment specifically for the PMDG 737NGX version. The sound environment will change inside as you 'scroll' back towards the engines and wings in the 3D interior view (virtual cockpit view).
Perhaps the best part of these sounds is the exterior fly-by! Using 3D Sound Cone technology, there are two exterior buzzsaw sounds, one distant and one up close. Two jet whine sounds, one for front and rear, and one for side-on to the plane. There are three powerful sounding rumble/exhaust sounds, one 'whooshing' sound effect for side one, one powerful blast sound for behind the engine, and one low rumble for when the plane is flying overhead at a distance. All in all, this will create one of the most realistic sounding in-game jet fly-by sound experiences for Flight Simulator X, especially for the CFM56-7B 737NG in FSX.
We hope you enjoy these new ultra-realistic 737NGX sounds for FSX. Actually we know you will enjoy them!

| Republic P-47D-20 365th FG (B4-W) "Mortician's Delight" |

File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the A2A Wings of Power III P-47D Thunderbolt, representing P-47D-5-RE 42-8438 B4-W "Morticians Delight", one of the P-47's flown by Lt Neal Worley of the 387th FS/ 365th FG. Lt. Worley's first two P-47's were called 'Kansas Jack', referring to his Emporia, Kansas upbringing, but he did not feel like naming his third aircraft. His crew came up with 'Morticians Delight', and Worley himself painted the picture on the engine cowling. In 127 missions, he crashed 5 Thunderbolts. His coolness under pressure was immortilized on July 26th, 1944. A 20 mm shell hit his right wheel well during an attack on Sauveur Lendelin, jamming the wheel. He discovered that only the left wheel would lower, but would not retract, so bellying in was no longer an option. He circled for over an hour, burning fuel, and then landed on only the left gear, easing the fighter down. When the right wing dipped just enough, he hit the left brake, and the P-47 spun to a stop. His landing was captured on film, and used in the movie "Fighter Squadron". The aircraft was repaired, and flew missions the very next day, as a testament to the ruggedness of the Thunderbolt. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by Martin Catney.

File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the A2A Wings of Power III P-47D Thunderbolt, representing P-47D-22-RE 42-6319 D5-P "Astra", the assigned aircraft of Captain George Porter of the 386th FS/365th FG as it looked in August 1944, while based at Juvincourt (A-68), France. George Porter gained the tongue in cheek title of 'flak analyst extraordinaire' after a june 1944 mission, when the 386th FS lost three aircraft to AA. During debriefing, he referred to "only moderate, and only fairly accurate flak". On 5 september 1944, he chased a Me109 to the deck, and as he closed to 500 yards, the German pilot suddenly bailed out. Porter filmed the crash and pilot on the ground and was disappointed he hadn't even fired a shot. He needed to be convinced by intelligence officers to submit a claim. He received a silver star for an action on october 12, 1944, when he encountered about 40 german fighters.Attacking four, he hit one when his aircraft, D5-P, started leaking oil over the windshield. He attacked another FW190 nonetheless, scoring hits. He later bellied in near Diest, Belgium, severly damaging Astra, but remaining unhurt himself. The tail on his aircraft was a replacement from an older aircraft, which explains the wrong serial on the tail. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by Martin Catney.

| W88 Air Harbor - Greensboro NC |
|
File Description:
I decided to make this modification to W88 (Air Harbor, Greensboro NC) simply because the stock airport was done completely wrong. The default version has way too much ramp area where there should be grass runway. According to Airnav ( http://www.airnav.com/airport/W88 ), the runway is 2460' x 65', composed of "asphalt/turf." MS put in a 20' wide asphalt strip, but put a huge ramp right next to it. I've done two things to the airport. First, I severly reduced the size of that ramp. Second, due to the limitations in FS, I simply added a 40' wide grass runway adjacent to the asphalt strip. This gives you the total width called for by Airnav's spec, and also gives two more starting points as a bonus! There's still more ramp than in real-life, but I just consider that "artistic license." :)

| KMHV Mojave Airport v2.0 |
|
File Description:
This remote former World War II desert airfield has developed some very interesting and unusual features. It is a center for civilian aviation R&D, a major aircraft storage and scrap yard (possibly the largest nonmilitary one in the country), a busy film site, and is the home of the National Test Pilot School, the largest civilian test pilot school in the world. Also located here is Burt Rutan's Scaled Composites company, where many innovative aircraft designs have been conceived and constructed. Mojave Airport is also where many commercial carriers store surplus or otherwise in- limbo airliners. There are currently around 90 airplanes waiting to be sold, repaired or reused here, including several 747s. This file has been designed to work on both FS2004 and FS-X platforms. Requires RWY 12 Object Placer program (available at www.avsim.com) for full enhancement.
