Tacoma to Mount Rainier, Washington State

File Description:
This package DOES NOT contain finished FS scenery products! Instead, the three bitmaps (N46.7-47.4 W121.4-122.8) are meant to be used for FS landscape scenery design with Ground2K4 (by Christian Fumey) or similar utilities. Source data are public domain Landsat 7 ETM+ satellite images, at 15-m and 30-m ground resolution. I used professional GIS software for the geographic transformation to lat/long-WGS84 projection, and photo processing software for channel merging and image enhancements. Each image has been tested in Ground2K4 for accurate placement. Note: These images have been ECW-compressed and need special (free) software for decompressing (instructions included). Background bitmaps for Ground2K4 design.

Russia & Middle Asia Airports

File Description:
These files enable the FS2002 scenery collection of Russia & Middle East Republic Airports Part 1 by Vladimir Svobodfor - rusnew.zip - to work with FS2004. Also included are EditVoicepack files to provide proper names on the ATC system for the airports concerned. The new AFCAD files will allow you to plan routes, and take off and land at all but one of the airports in the scenery collection, and ATC will route you appropriately. Several of the airports have ILS landing systems. AI aircraft can be added, and will land, taxi, park and take off in the correct locations. Many thanks to Vladimir for his original work.

Tutorial: Modify Landclass and Add Roads with SBuilder

File Description:
This is a follow up to my Tutorial on using SBuilder and AFCAD2 to regress an Airfield to an earlier time (available from my website www.scruffyduck.plus.com). It builds on from that tutorial and describes adding modified landclass around the airfield and adding an access road using VTP2 lines. Whilst this tutorial was designed as part of a series on creating earlier age airfields the techniques in both should be of interest and use in the modern era if you are developinh, or wish to develop, scenery using SBuilder. Future Tutorials will look at placing 3d scenery objects and other SBuilder related topics. Support from my website. All feedback much appreciated

Providence RI T.F. Green Airport

File Description:
Providence RI T.F. Green Airport For FS2004. The entire terminal area has been reworked using mostly custom textures. This scenery requires that the Nova textures and Nova Gold textures be installed also. An Afcad2 file is included which uses the star runway system to activate all three runways. It is also strongly suggested that the Rwy12 v1.2 program and all of the static object libraries be previously installed. There is a self-installer included for hassle-free installation of scenery and texture files. Important: a previous installation of the file FS9JETS2.ZIP is also required. Please read the KPVD INSTALL.doc file for more important information.

Air Force Flight Test Center, Detachment 3 (A.K.A. "Groom Lake" or "Area 51")

File Description:
This set of files is a scenery enhancement for the Air Force Flight Test Center, Detachment 3, or AFFTC Det. 3, for short (more commonly, but erringly, refered to as "Area 51"). This package includes a faithfully reproduced digital rendition of the original area based upon the true footprint of the real-world airstrip near Groom Dry Lake, Watertown, Nevada. This scenery is fully set up for all of your AI traffic needs, and is, I believe, the most accurate representation of the Groom Lake Facility to date. Enjoy flying the restricted skies of Dreamland Ranch! This package was designed for use with Flight Simulator 2004 ONLY.

Fort Fisher - Kure Beach Long Range Radar Complex

File Description:
Today we are at the beach! Well, almost. The Fort Fisher - Kure Beach LRR [QGV] sits on a slight hill just 15 ft above the blue Atlantic. Just 1,500 feet to your east the surf is rolling up onto Kure Beach. This part of southern North Carolina is beautiful, and I suspect quite crowded with sun worshippers when the weather is appropriate. Start from Wilmington International [KILM] and wander 17 nm down the peninsula to the site. A helipad and terminal VOR [108.00] are included in the scenery. Scenery sets are provided for the FSGenesis 38m terrain mesh, and the standard fs9 terrain mesh.

Tonopah Test Range - TNX

File Description:
This file contains several BGL's which enhance the default FSX Tonopah Test Range (TNX). Parking, scenery objects, and roads are added to the bland stock airport. The "mesa" created by the stock airport backgound flatten is blended into the surrounding terrain using "sloped flattens". The surrounding "city" was removed and a better landclass substituted. This scenery is not intended to re-create a perfect match to the real world but to enhance the visual experience of flying into and out of the airport. The files were tested with FSX-Acceleration\SP2 on WinXP Pro, DX9. I used 10M mesh from the "FSX Usa 10 M terrains Project" when blending

Groton-New London Sub Base

File Description:
FS2004 Scenery - Naval Submarine Base New London Groton CT. On the east bank of the Thames River near Groton, CT, New London Naval Submarine Base was the birthplace of the submarine force. It was originally a Navy yard, converted to a submarine base in 1916, and greatly expanded in World War II. The advent of nuclear power required an improvement in training and support facilities. By 1959, New London had become the largest submarine base in the world with 8,210 active personnel. The base was recommended for closure by the DoD in the 2005 BRAC Recommendations. Created using Instant Scenery by John B. Loney, Jr.
