| RAF Hilbaldstow - Lincolnshire, England |
|
File Description:
RAF Hibaldstow is a former Royal Air Force satellite airfield located south of Hibaldstow in Lincolnshire and 8.3 miles (13.4 km) south east of Scunthorpe, Lincolnshire, England. The airfield was built with greater things in mind, but it only became a satellite airfield for RAF Kirton-in-Lindsey in 1941. When the runways were constructed, some of the hardcore was made from material taken from demolished bungalows on the site.
The airfield was commissioned on 12 May 1941 when No. 255 Squadron RAF took up residence with their Boulton Paul Defiant night fighters. These planes had been drawn from RAF Kirton-in-Lindsey and made one 'kill': an He 111 which was shot down near Louth on 5 June 1941.
On 6 August 1947 the station finally closed and during 1960-61 it was sold off for use as agricultural land. It was also used for Sunday markets, as a skid-pan by Lincolnshire Police and by a local parachute club. The control tower was converted to a two-storey house in 1976.

| RAF Melbourne - Yorkshire, England. |
|
File Description:
RAF Melbourne was a Royal Air Force station typical of the expansion period of the Second World War. Located 5 miles to the South-west of Pocklington, Yorkshire, England. The nearest village is Seaton Ross.
East Common just outside the village of Seaton Ross was requisitioned for use as a grass airfield in November 1940. In late 1940 the airfield was used by Armstrong Whitworth Whitleys of 10 Squadron as a relief landing ground for RAF Leeming. The airfield soon closed for re-development as a standard Bomber Command airfield with three concrete runways and three hangars.
In May 1945 the airfield was transferred to RAF Transport Command and 575 Squadron moved in with the Douglas Dakota. The squadron only stayed for a few months operating transport flight to and from continental Europe. With the departure of the Dakota a number of specialised Flights used the airfield for six months but by the middle of 1946 the airfield was no longer used for flying.

| RAF Hutton Cranswick |
|
File Description:
RAF Hutton Cranswick opened in January 1942 as a fighter airfield within No. 12 Group RAF. Unusually for the time its three runways were concrete "from new", many airfields (particularly fighter airfields) were initially built with grass runways which were later upgraded to concrete.
Many squadrons rotated through the airfield including 610, 19, 308 (City of Kraków), 316 (City of Warsaw), 195, 306 (City of Torun), 302 (City of Poznan), 315 (City of Deblin), 234, 168 and No. 170 Squadron RAF. From December 1943, the Anti-Aircraft Co-operation 291 Squadron was formed at the airfield for target towing and similar uses.
Whilst in use by 291 other fighter squadrons continued to rotate through including 401, 403, 412, 441, 442, 443 (all flying Supermarine Spitfires) and 439 using Hawker Typhoons. The final unit to operate from Hutton Cranswick was No. 124 Squadron RAF using Spitfire IXs.
The station closed in 1946 and has reverted back to farm land, an industrial site now stands were the tech site was situated and the tower became a house.

| CYYN Swift Current Municipal Airport |
|
File Description:
Swift Current Municipal airport is situated approximately 8 km east of the City of Swift Current. It is one of those tiny airports where the default flightsim scenery has no resemblance to the real world airport. CYYN was constructed using GMAX and represents the airport as it was in the Summer of 2007. It includes nearly all the buildings at the airport, runway signs, the addition of fencing, and a rotating beacon. CYYN also includes a landclass file to better represent the terrain around the airport, at least as far as the limits of the default landscape will allow. The airport has a long history, being built in 1937, as one of the hundred-mile airports on the Trans Canada airway. It was greatly expanded as an RCAF / RAF station during world war II. Many of the wartime structures still exist but many are in poor shape. Two of the original three runways remain in service. The airfield is often used by 15 Wing aircraft of CFB Moose Jaw to practice approaches.

File Description:
Germany Bundeswehr Eurofighter, station in Rostock - Laage, for FS2004 ,
5 single seater (30+06, 30+08, 30+09, 30+11,98+39)
5 two seater (30+10, 30+03,98+03, 98+31, 98+33)
and new flight dynamics (update: trim, gear and aileron)
Eurofighter is a single-seat, twin-engine, agile combat aircraft which will be used in the air-to-air, air-to-ground and tactical reconnaissance roles. The design of Eurofighter Typhoon is optimised for air dominance performance with high instantaneous and sustained turn rates, and specific excess power. Special emphasis has been placed on low wing loading, high thrust to weight ratio, excellent all round vision and carefree handling. The use of Stealth technology is incorporated throughout the aircraft’s basic design.
The new AFS - Eurofighter has flightdynamics of real Eurofighter.
This has a new panel with new gauges and a new high textures virtual cockpit.
(INFO: Panel is FREEWARE, virtual cockpit and external model is free trialware !!)

| Operation Sky Light |
|
File Description:
In the early cold dawn of February 7, 2008 the sky of Siberia was
lighted by a yellowish light accompanied
by a sound similiar to Rock & Roll Drums....in this barren land very
few saw or heard it. Radar Station "Kipowlsky-33" in
lower Siberia recorded a falling object for 20 minutes then lost it.
Enrico Flemmi of the Italian Space Watch Observatory has told the
Roman Daily that all electronic devices placed by the observatory in
Siberia have shut down, 65 of them!!....Stritch
Gunswarsek, of the EU Scientific Laboratory for the studies of the
Atmosphere has declared that a high
level of Ozone has been detected from ground 0 to 24,000 feet over
all Siberia...........
In response, Operation " Sky-Light" has been authorized with priority
" Secret + 999" meaning that all Special planes
equipped with " Alpha 323 Sensors" must go to Siberia and follow
procedure "Klinky-8989"--- Russia has agreed that UN NATIONS AIRCRAFT WILL BE ACCEPTED!!!!.
The penetrator must be found!!Is this time True???----If you go, do take a scarf.

| Woodbine Municipal Airport (1N4), NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 02 miles SE of Woodbine, New Jersey on 700 acres of land, Woodbine Municipal Airport serves small to large GA craft as well as gliders and ultralights. Tie downs are the only option for transient aircraft. The main parking area of the airport is located in the center tarmac area near the fuel station. The parking spots can accomodate aircraft with wingspans up to 50 feet. Anything larger should park off the side of the taxiway. Fuel is available by stopping near the fuel tank. It should be noted that this airport's real ICAO is KOBI.
Scenery constructed with use of satellite images/streetview, the author has not been there in person.
This scenery is meant to be used in conjunction with MegaScenery Earth New Jersey/Delaware 005. It is not required, but apron use is minimized to allow satellite scenery to show through as much as possible, and objects are placed based on the MSE textures - lack of it may make scenery look out of place.

| Herb's Field C417 near Ottawa in Ontario, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Herb's is on the 417 between Ottawa and Montreal at the junction with highway 34, which is south of Hawkesbury. Herb's is a truckstop and a repair garage and a restaurant and a gas station, and is still (but only just!) an airfield. Which is to say there is still a runway, some 1,200 feet long and 30 feet wide. Do not go in your Cessna 172 as only the northern half is usable, and that after inspection from the air for any obstacles, parked cars, dogs, and similar obstacles. The southern half is the way in for trucks and cars, so make sure you can stop well before the ex-hangar which is now for truck repairs only. The planes all belonged to Herb's father, and even a casual inspection will reveal that they haven't moved for some time. If there is anything using the service road immediately to the north of the runway go around again, you won't be able to clear a vehicle and then land on the threshold.

| NAS Sunnyvale CA (KNUQ) |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
In 1931, the city of Sunnyvale acquired a 1,000 acre (4 km���²) parcel of farmland bordering San Francisco Bay, then "sold" the parcel for $1 to the US government as a home base for the Navy airship USS Macon.
The location proved to be ideal for an airport, since the area is often clear while other parts of the San Francisco Bay are covered in fog. This is due to the Coast Range to the west which blocks the cold oceanic air which is the cause of San Francisco fog.
The base, originally named Airbase Sunnyvale CAL (it was thought that calling it Mountain View would cause officials to fear airships colliding with mountainsides), was accepted by the U.S. Navy on February 12, 1931 and dedicated NAS Sunnyvale on April 12, 1933. After the death of Rear Admiral William A. Moffett, in the loss of the USS Akron on April 4, 1933, the Air Field (but not the Naval Air Station) was renamed Moffett Field on September 1, 1933.

| RAF Leeming 1990 - Tornado F3s |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is the last of the three bases that I have covered with the Tornado F3. RAF leeming was the second base to receive the F3 after RAF Coningsby, with the formation of No. 11 Sqn in July 1988.
No. 23 Sqn followed in the November and No. 25 Sqn was the last in February of 1989.
These paints represent the aircraft as they were in 1990. I have included the 11 Sqn boss bird of David Hamilton, 11 Sqn's first Commanding Officer on the F3, and the two 75th Anniversary aircraft of 23 & 25 Sqns. They are all DXT3 and mipped, with customized alpha channels to represent different payloads.
There are flightplans included, but these are what I would call station-heavy, none of the aircraft stay away overnight and all need spots. How you resolve this is up to you but I won't be providing any other plans for these......just yet......
