| B-24 USAAF 376th BG "Lady be Good" |
|
File Description:
Following an April 4, 1943 bombing raid on Naples, Italy, conducted by the 376th Bomb Group, the Lady Be Good of the 514th Bomb Squadron failed to return to base. After attempts to locate the plane, its nine crewmen were classified as MIA, and presumed dead, believed to have perished after crashing in the Mediterranean.
Almost 16 years later on Nov. 9, 1958, several British geologists were flying over the desolate, sun-baked Libyan Desert. At approximately 400 miles south of Soluch, they spotted an aircraft on the sand. A ground party that reached the site in March 1959 discovered the plane to be a B-24D. The "Lady Be Good" had been found.
Evidence at the site indicated that the crew had become lost in the dark on return from Naples and had flown over their base and southward into the desert. As their fuel supply became depleted, the nine men aboard had bailed out but had disappeared while attempting to walk northward to civilization.
Intensive searches were made for clues as to the fate of the crew, and in 1960 the remains of eight were found, one near the plane and the other seven far to the north. Five had trekked 78 miles across the tortuous sand before perishing and one had gone an amazing 109 miles. In addition, they had lived eight days rather than only two expected of men in this area with little or no water. The body of the ninth man was never found.

| Lake Hood LHD and Z41 in Anchorage Alaska UPDATED |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is an updated version that is complete in itself and which greatly upgrades Lake Hood Airstrip Z41 and also makes minor modifications to LHD. Lake Hood is right next door and to the north of Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport, and there is a second airfield on the north side of the lake called Lake Hood Airstrip. The airstrip is coded Z41, the International is PANC, and Lake Hood itself is LHD. You will need Ultimate Terrain Alaska Canada for this to work, and you should also download and install Anchorage International (verson 4?) by William Morgan of FRFStudio. LHD/Z41 includes a fair proportion of the 780 float planes that are based there and which make Lake Hood the largest and busiest float plane base in the world, averaging 190 flights per day during the year and a lot more than that per day during the summer months. There is fuel at two places on the lake, and a lot of maintenance help available. The documentation showing the VFR routes to Lake Hood is also included in the Lake Hood VFR procedures folder, and basically, if you listen to the ATC chatter, planes either route via the Ball Park or the Gravel Pit, which gets abbreviated to something like "You want the park or the gravel?" which wouldn't mean a whole lot to an unrehearsed stranger. Unfortunately FS doesn't reach that level of sophistication, but you can still take the right route. There is a google marked map showing the locations of the checkpoints.

| Greenwood Lake Airport (4N1), NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 01 miles E of West Milford, New Jersey on 150 acres of land, Greenwood Lake Airport is a public asphalt strip that services small to medium GA air traffic. The second runway that used to be there has been re-paved and now serves as extra aircraft parking. You can park anywhere on the closed runway, along the edge of the main tarmac where the terminal building is, or between any two white cones (50 foot max wingspan) that mark tie-down locations in the middle of the main tarmac. A helicopter start is provided as well. For parking, Small GA spaces are for craft with wingspans of less than 50 feet; Medium GA spaces are for craft with wingspans from 50-60 feet. The glide slope for Runway 24 has been adjusted up from 3.5 degrees to 4 degrees as in real life the runway sits higher than the ground the trees grow from so this will give you proper clearance on approach. Fuel is available by stopping near the tank on the main tarmac. Scenery constructed with use of satellite images/streetview/aerial photos - the author has not been there in person. This scenery is meant to be used in conjunction with MegaScenery Earth New York 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.

| Salem Airfield Airport (NJ74), NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 01 miles E of Salem, New Jersey on 14 acres of land, Salem Airfield is a private turf strip 2200' in length. The hard surface runway has been removed so have your mesh settings as high as possible to get the most out of landing/taking off on actual terrain. The surrounding area has been highly detailed with as much forestation as possible included to block out the horizon as much as possible considering the many open spaces surrounding the airport. Tie downs are located next to the middle of the runway, look for the marker cones or start in any RAMP_GA_SMALL parking locations. A hangar is available as well, and attendant is on call on NAV2 to open the door. You can start inside the hangar in the DOCK_GA parking spot or outside the hangar in the RAMP_GA parking spot. All parking is for aircraft with wingspans no greater than 40 feet. There is no fuel available. The field is lit for night use, but the windsock is not so check your weather before flying in!

| CNZ3 - Chatham-Kent - Ontario, Canada V1 |

Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is partly part of the Small Ontario Fields series. The airport ICAO was changed from CNZ3 to CYCK in November 2012; I have left it as it was. The runway too remains as it was a few years ago. Chatham is located 50 miles east of Detroit and 150 miles southwest of Toronto, between Lake St. Clair and Lake Erie, and the airfield is southeast of the town. There is a single asphalt runway 5,000 feet long and 75 feet wide, aligned 05/23 in FS9 but in fact in real life now 06/24 due to the wandering magnetic north. The apron is on the northern side of the runway at the eastern end, with added taxiways to cater for newer hangars wearing identical colour schemes. There is fuel, runway lighting, some taxiway lights, visitor parking on the grass, and plane maintenance in the large hangar beside the small terminal building on the north side of the apron. There is a train station in the middle of the town, and no scheduled flights to the airport that is 8 miles away; these two facts may be connected. Ditches along the road and around much of the airfield provide separation, which is why the fences are not continuous. If you are on the runway and find your path to the apron blocked by another plane that is stationary at the hold short, continue past the first turnoff to the threshold markers and turn off the runway and wait. The AI plane will then taxi out and you will have a clear path.

| CYQS - St Thomas - Ontario, Canada *V1* |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
St Thomas is a town in Ontario around 12 miles south of London and less than 10 miles from the north shore of Lake Erie, with a population of just under 40,000. The airport (actually more of an airfield, as there are no scheduled flights) has three runways typical of an ex-military field, with one remaining hangar from RCAF flight training times in the 1940's, and the east-west runway now extended to just over 5,000 feet. The main presence at CYQS is a company in the crop seeding and spraying business over a wide area of Ontario; as a result there are several AT-802 planes based there which are included here as AI planes and also as parked scenery objects. To the west of the original apron area there are added taxiways to cater for a herd of new individual hangars wearing orange and white uniforms. There is fuel, runway lighting on 09-27, taxiway lights, visitor parking on the edge of the apron, and maintenance companies in the large hangars, plus a flight training group. A small terminal building sits quietly between hangars, waiting. Ditches along the road and around much of the airfield provide separation, which is why the fences are not continuous. I presume that the warning balls on the electricity cables were found to be necessary to persuade pilots not to land there; probably ski planes in winter, they tend to land anywhere so long as it has snow on it. This V1 version includes previous updates.

Sky Pirates Medium Vanship by Mellin - Version 1.0.0
If you are interested with updates check: https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=D237841111C490A2!2055&authkey=!ALJGm8kyIEpPWOc&ithint=folder%2ctxt
Vanships come from "Last Exile" and "Last Exile: Silver Wing Fam" animes. Sky Pirate Medium Vanships are a type of vanship which appear in Last Exile - Fam, The Silver Wing. In addition to Vespas, the Sky Pirates use a special type of vanship with an unusually broad and flat body. They resemble a rectangular wing with the cockpit in the center and two engines, one on each side. These ships are sometimes armed with harpoons to be used in capturing larger vessels. Because of their broad wings, they are capable of carrying up to six harpoons while Vespas can carry only two. It should be noted that each of these six however are about the size of a vespa. Their true amount of payload can be seen during the attack on Boraeas fortress, where Fam and Giselle's Vespa only mounts two rockets, each of these ships is seen carrying entire racks of them, with one being seen with 12 rocket pods slung under each wing, in formation with Fam's group shortly before they come under heavy fire. Those Vanships have 2 fuel tanks inside their wings and a big cargo bay in a middle of there body.They also have a observer's spot under main body in the front. It is equipped with periscope/binoculars.

| Black Cat Catalina PBY5/5Av1.1 for x-plane |
|
File Description:
This update includes improvements to the fuselage shape, addition of retractable wing floats using wheel farings, an improved but not custom panel, improved prop efficiency and more. The PBY Catalina is probably the best known flying boat with over 4000 produced by Consolidated aircraft and licensees. The Black Cat squadrons all done in flat black played havoc particularly for the Japanese in the Pacific. Fitted with radar, with a 15 hour endurance and 2800 mile range they hunted Japanese naval ships by night and bombed or torpedoed them by the hundreds up. There are 6 engine nacelles used in the model, 2 represent the 1200 HP radial engines driving the props, the others are jets with 5 lbs of thrust, 1 is used for the rear fuselage section, 1 is used for the wing pylon, 1 is used for the flare from the fuselage to the vertical stabilizer and the last is used for the forward observation and gunner space. Two are not used. Wing sections are taken up by the main wing and the support spars so there you go. The fuel tanks are used for the side gunner pods since these can be decorated separately. The plane flies very well and is stable as a rock. Takeoffs from water are quite easy as long as you don't dip a wing tip (no floats remember). The Black Cat squadron logo used in the paint scheme is courtesy of http://www.daveswarbirds.com/blackcat/logos.htm and is from the VP-71 Black Cat squadron.

| FMC Manual For Begginers - In Greek Language |
|
File Description:
The handbook of the Flight Management System (FMS) that you hold in your hands was written taking into consideration the supply of minimal essential instructions to the Greek Flight Simmers. In this handbook are reported enough at greater length all those actions which should be known by any virtual pilot in order to begin his/her virtual flights using and operating the abilities of the FMS of his/her aircraft. This handbook is separated in three parts. The first part has to do with the familiarization of the cockpit of the aircraft, the second has to do with the Start-up procedure of the engines and finally the third part has to do with the programming and usage of the FMC during flight. For this handbook, the FMC of the payware model of PMDG B737NG was used as an example.
This handbook is written in Greek Language...
