| E T Joshua TVSV on Saint Vincent in the eastern Caribbean |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Saint Vincent island is the northernmost of the group of islands known as St Vincent and the Grenadines, just south of St Lucia. St Vincent is around 17 miles long and 10 miles wide and by far the largest in the group, and the islands have a total population of around 120,000. E T Joshua is at the southern end of the island, adjacent to the capital Kingstown. There is a new airport under construction a few miles to the east which will have a longer runway and a larger apron, and when it is ready E T Joshua will probably be closed and redeveloped.
The terminal and the other smaller buildings are all made with photographic textures; the terminal is now quite old and has seen better days. The airport is a hub for small local airlines and also has regular LIAT flights connecting to other islands. The runway is just a shade under 4,700 feet of asphalt, so there are no direct flights from Europe. The new airport to the east is depicted as under construction; obviously I have not flown there and I have not tried to depict the terminal building which is also under construction but a mystery to me.

Special Thanks to VRS for making such an awesome aricraft to fly in FSX! The scenery I used in the promo pics (NAS FALLON B-17 weapons range) is courtesy of "Blue Sky Scenery".
On a personal note, painting airplanes for FSX has become a hobby of sorts for me during these difficult Covid-19 times, and it is my hope that my latest "Labor of Love" brings some happiness to your day!
Kick the Tires and Light the Fires!

| B29 Superfortress |
|
File Description:
The Boeing B-29 was designed in 1940 as an eventual replacement for the B-17 and B-24. The first one built made its maiden flight on September 21, 1942. In December 1943 it was decided not to use the B-29 in the European Theater, thereby permitting the airplane to be sent to the Pacific area where its great range made it particularly suited for the long over-water flight required to attack the Japanese homeland from bases in China. During the last two months of 1944, B-29s began operating against Japan from the islands of Saipan, Guam and Tinian. With the advent of the conflict in Korea in June 1950, the B-29 was once again thrust into battle. For the next several years it was effectively used for attacking targets in North Korea. The B-29, named Enola Gay is the airplane from which the first atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima in August, 1945.

| WIKD/WIOD Tanjung Pandan/Buluh Tumbang/H.A.S. Hanandjoeddin, Indonesia |
|
File Description:
Googly scenery for WIKD/WIOD Tanjung Pandan/Buluh Tumbang/H.A.S. Hanandjoeddin,
Indonesia, based on Google Earth satellite data. It is a small domestic airport
serving the island of Belitung, located about 17 miles from the main town of the
island - Tandjungpandan. The island produces mainly tin and pepper but there are
some beaches that are generating tourist traffic too.
Flight Simulator 2004 has made no provision for any traffic at this airport and
this scenery seeks to redress the situation. The airport sees daily scheduled
traffic operated by Batavia Air and Sriwijaya Air.
The scenery does not purport to be ultra-accurate. Based on poor 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.
The ICAO code for this airport has recently changed from WIKD to WIOD. The included
files allow you to either retain the old code or optionally change the airport to
use the new one.

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.

| Fairchild 24 (2/96) Swedish Air Force |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the Lionheart Fairchild 24, in the colors of 2/96, a civilian Fairchild 24 that was impressed into the Swedish Air Force. At the outbreak of war, many civilian aircraft were mobilized. Most of them was larger aircraft, but lighter aircraft for liaison work were also used. The Naval Aviation Wing of F 2 at Hägernäs needed smaller aircraft for transport of personnel and liaison in their co-operation with the Navy.
For this reason, one Fairchild 24-C8CS-De Luxe was mobilized between May of 1940 and February of 1943. Its earlier civil registration was SE-AIR (in the USA ex NC15926). It was powered with a Warner Super Scarab S50 air-cooled radial engine delivering 145 hk. The aircraft was designated Tp 6 and got the Air Force number 912. At the delivery of the Tp 6 in May of 1940 to the Air Force, it crashed. But it was repaired and in service again in October the same year. After its time in the Air Force, the Fairchild went back to the civil register, where it was written off in 1951 after another crash.
Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by Lionheart Creations.

| RNAS Twatt (HMS Tern) |
|
File Description:
Opened on the 1 April 1941 RNAS (HMS Tern) was used throughout the second world war by various Sqns of the Royal Navy undergoing training.
The station had 4 concrete runways with various hangers and the usual building associated with a military base. It was also the first unit in the UK to experience a helicopter crash when a Sikorsky helicopter getting ready for take off; hit a parked Blenheim.
The UK and Iceland where involved in what was called the cod wars in the early 1970s, and NATO was concerned that it would have to remove its bases from Iceland should the dispute escalate between the 2 countries and there was talk of Twatt becoming a NATO base. However, this did not happen and the idea was dropped.
There was also talk of the unit becoming a base for helicopters supporting the oil industry, however, as a result of the drop in oil prices during the 80s that idea was also dropped.
Most of the airfield has been returned to farming now with only the unique Control Tower and a handful of other building remaining.

| F/A18 Hornet |
|
File Description:
The F/A-18 Hornet is an all-weather aircraft used as an attack aircraft as well as a fighter. It was designed to replace both the A-7 Corsair in the light ground attack role, and the F-4 Phantom which operated in both the air defense and ground attack roles. It compliments the F-14 Tomcat and can be operated from forward airstrips for the U.S. Marine Corps. In the fighter mode, the F/A-18 is used primarily as a fighter escort and for fleet air defense; in the attack mode, it is used for force projection, interdiction and close and deep air support. The F/A-18 currently equips the majority of Navy and Marine fighter-attack squadrons and will ultimately replace the F-14 Tomcat as it has the F-4 Phantom, the A-4 Skyhawk and the A-7 Corsair II. The Blue Angels flight demonstration team has used the F/A-18 since 1987. The final Hornet to be built was rolled out of Boeing's facility at Patuxent River, Maryland, in August 2000. Over 1,400 Hornets were built and over 1,200 are now flying in fifty-five active duty, reserve and test squadrons, as well as in seven foreign countries.

File Description:
FS2004 Lockheed EP-3E Aries II, a turboprop-based signals reconnaissance aircraft, operated by the United States Navy. It is based on a Lockheed P-3 Orion airframe, which is in turn based on the Lockheed L-188 Electra passenger airliner. There are eleven EP-3Es in the Navy's inventory, the last of which was delivered in 1997. A total of twelve P-3C aircraft were converted to replace older versions of the aircraft, which had been converted in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
On April 1, 2001, an EP-3E (PR-32) was intercepted by Chinese F-8 fighter jets about 70 miles off the Chinese island of Hainan. One of the Chinese jets bumped the wing of the EP-3E, which was forced to make an emergency landing in China. VQ-1 provides electronic reconnaissance from the east coast of Africa to the west coast of the United States. The squadron maintains a permanent detachment in Misawa Japan and has maintained a continuous presence in the Arabian Gulf since July 1992.
The model is the seventh P3 series aircraft by Team FS KBT. This model was made with Gmax. By Team FS KBT

File Description:
This scenery is based on the great CVN 68 Nimitz carrier model from Javier Fernandez.
The scenery shall replace my current CVN 75 scenery in the North Sea.
The scenery includes the following scenery elements, objects and dynamic traffic:
The carrier CVN 68 Nimitz and a lot of stuff on deck, 2 flying Helicopters over the Carrier,
4 Navy-Destroyers escorting the Carrier, 2 moving Destroyer based on a "Boats Traffic Plan
which are traveling around the group, 1 moving Tanker,a Oilrig about 30 nm northwest from the Carrier with a landable Platform !!
Seven F-18 Hornets as AI traffic, three F-18 Hornets based on recorded flights.
For the re-play of the start and landing traffic, the tool FSRecorder is required. The tool is part of this scenery package.
The carrier is built up as an airport with the code " CV68 ".
For installation and more info see the documentation inside the zip file.
For full carrier operation (catapul/cable catch) you need one of the two tools: RCBCO-30.zip, or ArrCab26.zip both available at the AVSIM lib.
CREDIT goes to :Javier Fernandez for his super great carrier model and to
Matthias Neusinger for his excellent FSRecorder tool.
