| Cape_Verde_Mesh |
|
File Description:
To improve performance, FSX updated with SP1 loads DEM files in threads and only
the closer terrain (about 10 NM from the point of view) is rendered in high
detail, while at far distances FSX shows up its default low resolution mesh,
if it is not available a multi-resolution one. This terrain mesh file was multilod compiled from 90m SRTM2 source data, reprocessed with 3DEM to remove voids and spikes, providing a 76.4m (LOD9) horizontal resolution topography intended
for use only in FSX updated with SP1.
It covers the Cape Verde, a group of islands in the North Atlantic Ocean, that consist of two small archipelagos, about 400 miles off the western coast of Senegal (Africa), including: Boa Vista, Brava, Maio, Mosteiros, Paul, Praia, Porto Novo, Ribeira Grande, Sal, Santa Catarina, Santa Cruz, Sao Domingos, Sao Filipe, Sao Miguel, Sao Nicolau, Sao Vicente and Tarrafal (Geographic coordinates: 16ºN/24ºW).

| "Blue / White" Aero Commander Shrike (N5784R) |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a new repaint for an old freeware Aero Commander Shrike - the work of the Milton Shupe Commander Team. I think Paul Sounders is listed as the developer, but several team members contributed lots and lots of hours. This was a native FS2004 model that someone ported over to FSX. The interior evidently did not get the same attention that the flight model and panel received. I asked Tom Tiedman, a fellow flight simmer, to update the interior for my personal taste and he did a great job in a matter of a few hours. You will notice the improvements when compared to the other texture files. You will need the FSX version of the Aero Commander Shrike that is not that easy to find but keep searching. The file I downloaded is ac500sv.zip (freeware). This is nothing fancy at all, just another repaint but a greatly improved interior. Thanks to TomT and I hope you enjoy the repaint.

| George Bush N2S-1 Stearman (N50061) |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a repaint only, for the payware Vertigo Studios Stearman Vol.1 set. This repaint depicts the restored Stearman N2S-1, N50061, owned/operated by Paul Ehlen and based at the Wings of the North Museum at Flying Cloud Airport, Eden Prairie, Minnesota. The aircraft, originally manufactured as U.S. Navy BuNo. 3347, is one of five Stearmans known to still exist that were flown by President George H. W. Bush as a cadet in the Navy. He flew this aircraft while training in the cold Minnesota winter at Wold-Chamberlain Airfield, Naval Air Station Minneapolis (modern-day KMSP), in January and early February 1943. The aircraft was sent to AirCorps Aviation for ground-up restoration in 2014, and emerged in 2015 as one of, if not the most period-authentic restored Stearmans to-date, restored to just as it was in 1943 (no electric starter (only hand-crank start) and no radios of any sort). The aircraft won "Best Stearman" at Oshkosh 2015.

| Douglas DC-3 'DC-3 Airways' Bare Metal Versions |
|
File Description:
These are official repaints for the virtual airline 'DC-3 Airways' and are intended primarily for use by 'DC-3 Airways' pilots. Visit 'DC-3 Airways' at www.dc3airways.com to learn more. This 1940's scheme is designed to be typical of the simple, yet stylish liveries that adorned the bare metal fuselages of pre and post WW-II civilian aircraft. This download includes two versions; a civilian-built DC-3 with Wright Cyclone engines and a C-47 conversion in cargo configuration powered by Pratt & Whitneys. Based on Jan Visser's legendary DC-3 model for FS2000, updated for FS2002, both models include transparent cabin windows, nightlighting and a 3D interior. The passenger aircraft has a folding stair door and appropriate cabin; the cargo version has double doors and DC-3 Airways cargo both inside and outside the aircraft (at rest). Includes FS2002 lights fix by Paul Pridmore. Default panel and sound. Repaints by Mark Beaumont.

| De Havilland Canada DHC2 Beaver (on floats with retracts) |
|
File Description:
IBM PC VERSION ONLY. This file contains DLL's that are not Mac. compatible.
A total of over 1500 aircraft were built. With double slotted full span flaps (drooping ailerons) and 1000lbs payload, its STOL capability, along with having a float version with retracts, made it an ideal "Bushplane" with unparalelled performance from any contempory aircraft. Many Beavers are still in use today.
The model was built using Truespace 4.3 and Chris Wallace's 3ds to S3d converter. Photorealistic interior views are used with auto switching day-time/night-time main panel.
The model requires that you have the Tri default aircraft installed.
A few non-standard features have been included to improve the ease of operation.
1. nose wheel steering (the original uses differential braking and castoring nose gears)
2. an electric pump for hydraulics (optional on the original )
3. a simple GPS that can be slaved to the auto pilot. (unheard of during the production life of the original but very likely to be found on any survivng present day aircraft.
4. a transponder has been added to enable IFR flights

| QANTAS Empire Airways Avro Lancastrian C.1 for FS2004 |
|
File Description:
These textures represent VH-EAT, an Avro Lancastrian C.1 that was in service with QANTAS Empire Airways between 1945 and 1947. The textures are for use with Paul Edwards and Manfred Jahn's Lancastrian Mkii which can be found on AVSIM under http://library.avsim.net/download.php?DLID=103414. Installation instructions are included in the README file.
Immediately following the cessation of hostilities in 1945 the world's airlines were faced with a dire shortage of equipment with which to resume intercontinental services. As an interim step, converted bombers were used. One such was the Avro Lancastrian. This variation of the Lancaster bomber was developed in Canada by Victory Aircraft of Toronto who stripped an Avro Lancaster Mk III of its guns and turrets, installed a pointed nose and faired out the tail. Further refinements were later carried out by the parent company, Avro, and the result was a 13 seat airliner. Qantas Empire Airways operated four of them on their London to Sydney route, an odyssey which took four days of hard travel.

| PAUT - Akun Island - Alaska, USA |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Akun Island is close to Akutan, only 7 miles away from the village and the Trident fish processing plant that is just west of the village. Unfortunately those 7 miles are over the sea, as the airport has been built on a different island where there are fewer hills. The link is by hovercraft, which is included as AI in this post along with a "seaport" that boasts only an apron down by the beach. PAUT has a single runway aligned 09-27 which is 4,500 feet long and has a surrounding gravel base. There are daily flights from Dutch Harbor by Grant Aviation, more than one if more are required. The Ai contains these flights, plus a late afternoon Coastguard helicopter flight is added to the revised St Paul Island AI included here. Adjacent to the airport there is a camp for housing labour who were employed on the airport construction, and this is now available for wildlife survey teams or whoever else needs to find accommodation while working on Akun Island.
