| Fedex boeing 757-200F 'N901FD' |
|
File Description:
This is a repaint of the Project Opensky Boeing 757 model in the Fedex livery. It is the first Boeing 757 for Fedex, formerly N610AU of US Airways. Includes custom camera views (not tested in FS2004). Instructions are included for installation for FSX and FS2004. No extra files are needed as this is a complete package. Higher resolution images can be seen using Avsim's zipdive feature. Brought to you by Painting Bay Design.
*Disclaimer-Project Opensky has not made a 757-200 Converted Freighter, so the door on this model is smaller than the real thing.

| Replacement Dynamic Water Textures v11 |
|
File Description:
Replacement dynamic water texture-sets for FS2004 (VERSION 11). These newer version 11 moon light textures are a completely new type than my earlier versions. The results are much improved and there is also a "new moon" texture in this version which is a more realistic and darker blue/black which contrasts nicely with my moon light textures. This compares quite drastically to the default over lit pinkish brown tones the default FS9 uses for a new moon. Now when you fly by moonlight you can actually see the moon kissed water and even see some wave action. It actually feels like you are there! There are 2 moon light textures in this download. The default reflections and water colors leave a lot to be desired in FS2004. As an example; The default milky "bright green" overcast texture is highly unrealistic in overcast conditions. The replacement textures will change this dramatically to a much more convincing and realistic "blue/grey", cast, with improved lighting and reflections in respect to the sun. These replacement textures will generally give a much more realistic tone and color to the water effects in FS2004. The change is quite dramatic and transforms the flight sim experience to a much greater level of realism. It is important to stress the default FS9 textures are fully compatible with these new textures and they can be used in any combinations and can be mixed and matched with the new textures. For example it may be that some users want to keep some of the water environment textures as they are by default but change only one or two textures. The choice is yours. As a further added bonus a voice control file has been included for "Shoot" which will control FS2004 by voice. It is brilliant and it's free.

| Explorer 1 Add-on for Orbiter |
|
File Description:
Explorer 1 was the first satellite launched by the United States when it was sent into space on January 31, 1958. Following the launch of the Soviet Union's Sputnik 1 on October 4, 1957, the U.S. Army Ballistic Missile Agency was directed to launch a satellite using its Jupiter C rocket developed under the direction of Dr. Wernher von Braun. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory received the assignment to design, build and operate the artificial satellite that would serve as the rocket's payload. JPL completed this job in less than three months.
The primary science instrument on Explorer 1 was a cosmic ray detector designed to measure the radiation environment in Earth orbit. Once in space this experiment, provided by Dr. James Van Allen of the State University of Iowa, revealed a much lower cosmic ray count than expected. Van Allen theorized that the instrument may have been saturated by very strong radiation from a belt of charged particles trapped in space by Earth's magnetic field. The existence of these radiation belts was confirmed by another U.S. satellite launched two months later, and they became known as the Van Allen Belts in honor of their discoverer.
Explorer 1 revolved around Earth in a looping orbit that took it as close as 354 kilometers (220 miles) to Earth and as far as 2,515 kilometers (1,563 miles). It made one orbit every 114.8 minutes, or a total of 12.54 orbits per day. The satellite itself was 203 centimeters (80 inches) long and 15.9 centimeters (6.25 inches) in diameter. Explorer 1 made its final transmission on May 23, 1958. It entered Earth's atmosphere and burned up on March 31, 1970, after more than 58,000 orbits. The satellite weighed 14 kilograms (30.8 pounds).

| South African Airways "Old Colors" Boeing 777-200LR |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a repaint of the PMDG 777-200LR in the old South African Airways Colours. It is of course also a completely fictitious repaint. South African Airways (SAA) never operated any Boeing 777 variant, however the inspiration for this model comes from an old B767 SAA operated named "Protea" with registration ZS-SRA. Over the years, SAA used subtle differences in their iconic livery as far as the motive of the nose is concerned - sometimes the nosecone was completely blue, other times left white with the trademark blue and orange lines not running through it stopping at the nosecone, and sometimes the lines passed through the nosecone. Given that this is a fictitious repaint, I have used a little artistic freedom and gave this aircraft the totally blue nosecone which I like a lot. The user will see that the thumbnail in FSX contains the PMDG logo - please note that it is only intended to depict that is a paint for use with the PMDG series 777-200 for FSX and PMDG own all rights to their logo, no copyright infringement is intended or should be inferred.
I should add that I am by no means a professional repainter, but enjoy the task and enjoy sharing these old liveries with fellow enthusiasts - therefore it is not perfect, but a close rendition of what it would have looked like in this colour scheme. Enjoy!

| Project Mercury Addon Enhancement Pack |
|
File Description:
An enhancement package for the Project Mercury addon for Orbiter created by Rob Conley at the Medville Space Center http://home.alltel.net/estar/orbiter.html This enhancement pack contains updates to the REDSTONE, ATLAS rockets and the MERCURY Spacecraft. The REDSTONE texture was hand crafted in MS Paint (believe it or not) using archived pictures of both Freedom-7 and Liberty Bell 7 pre launch pictures as guides. It is now historically accurate, and cleaned up quite a bit. The ATLAS now sports a realistic corrigated booster section (with the texture taken right from a picture of Gordo Coopers pre-launch Atlas) and the upper section now has the frosty look that occured with the Atlas when it was loaded with LOX and fuel, and some historically accurate markings were included. The improvements to the MERCURY CAPSULE are numerous. It sports a real window (texture taken from a close up shot of Friendship-7), more darker exterior color that is more accurate, crisper detail, improved antenna housing and capsule top. Please note that there are TWO versions of the capsule exterior texture included. One called CAPMAIN.DDS sports a realistic name printed on the exterior, not assiciated with any real mission (America 7), and the other texture, CAPMAIN-NOLOGO.DDS, has no logo imprinted. Refer to the README file for instructions on how to change this to the non-logo capsule.

| Pioneer 4 Add-on for Orbiter |
|
File Description:
Pioneer 3 and 4 were early satellites designed to be lofted toward Earth's Moon. They were equipped with Geiger counters to measure radiation in space. Pioneer 3 was launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida, on December 6, 1958.
Because of a slight error in the satellite's velocity and angle after burnout of the Juno II rocket, it did not reach the Moon; instead it achieved a peak altitude of 102,320 kilometers (63,580 miles). The satellite did, however, discover a second radiation belt around Earth during its flight. Pioneer 3 reentered Earth's atmosphere over equatorial Africa a day after launch.
Pioneer 4 was launched March 3, 1959, and successfully passed within 60,000 kilometers (37,300 miles) of the Moon the following day. The satellite was tracked for 82 hours to a distance of 655,000 kilometers (407,000 miles) from Earth, a record at that time. Pioneer 4 is now orbiting the Sun, the first U.S. spacecraft placed in solar orbit.
The Orbiter version will do a little better than get you within 60,000 kilometers like the real one achieved. The flight profile included usually will get you to within 8,000 kilometers, and sometimes, depending on the mood of your copy of Orbiter, may even impact the moon! However since installations may vary, your distance to the moon on arrival, or even impacting the moon, is not guaranteed. Just like the real thing!
