Air Canada (New colors) Boeing 757-200

File Description:
This Boeing 757-200 has been painted with the new Air Canada scheme. Even if the company doesn't own any 757s, I've carefully painted the scheme as precise as I could. The quality of the work is almost as good as “photo real” paint. I've re-mastered almost the whole aircraft except the interior cabin, cargo bay and part of the wings. All the rest of the plane, I mean: the exterior day and night textures and also the entire alpha effect are brand new. Equipped with Rolls Royce engines as Air Canada usually equip most of their fleet. This paint is dedicated to Pascal Mcduff; a good friend of mine who is a flight attendant for Air Canada. I wish him the best luck and experiences. The aircraft model also features; Dynamic shine, Wing view or Virtual Cockpit, Opening Doors & cargo doors, 3d Flight Attendants in the cabin, All normal animations, Realistic FDE, Accurate dimensions, Accurate specifications, Accurate flight performance based on performance charts, Accurate flight performance based on certified pilot input, Full damage profiles for major body locations, flaps, struts, tires and engines.

Hellenic Air Force F-4E Phantom II

File Description:
Full compatible with both FS2K2 & FS9 versions, this "VietNam camouflage" repaint, is representing an F-4E Phantom II in service of 338th Squadron of Hellenic Air Force. The model is made by Kazunori Ito, the textures and the panel by Nick Karatzides. The package contains realistic sounds made by Angelos Hatzikatakos. A new panel was made by Nick Karatzides according pictures of the real Phantom cockpit. The panel uses the fine radar and HUD gauges, compatible with both FS2K2 & FS9 versions, made by Paolo Dessani and Eric Marciano. Nick Karatzides also made an accurate checlist for FS purposes and the VERY completed flight manual (38 pages) which can be read with Adobe Acrobat. This "F-4E_HAF_v1.zip" package is for EXPERIENCED FlightSimers and virtual pilots who have a "good feeling" on the controls and do not "kick" the contol stick while flying...(no mistakes allowed especialy during landing phase!) It is for people who want to know how it looks to fly with a modern fighter. The package contains visual effects, night lighting, fine looking mechanical parts movement, smoke contrails, realistic gears extracting / retracting etc.

GPS GARMIN 400 Series Trainer

File Description:
This is a GPS Trainer Utility

The 400 Series Trainer provides a completely functional simulator for the unit of your choice. In addition, you get the capability to simulate the plane’s location, speed, altitude, heading, and selected course input. These features allow you to practice basic operations such as the power-on sequence, frequency selection, and page selection. You may also practice the more advanced features such as flight plan navigation and approach procedure navigation.

In addition to providing the capability to simulate free flight for any desired course, the Trainer allows you to simulate some of the practice flights described in the pilot’s guide. These practice scenarios automatically fly the plane in a playback mode so you can concentrate more closely on the system’s operation. While the 400 Series Trainer may be fun to fly, its primary intent is to help you become acquainted with the many powerful features provided by the real unit. You can learn to use a wealth of situational awareness features of the 400 Series from the comfort and safety of a personal computer, so that you can fly safely and more efficiently.

City Builder Tool

File Description:
The tool (a 50 kb Java application) provides a GUI where you just click and place bases, rivers, blocks, churchs, parks, runway, solarplants etc.
Then you click "produce" and the tool writes your My_Cool_Base.cfg file for your OrbiterConfig folder.
In this way I build my home town, with parks and churchs, and I take off from there, now ...

Note: this is an alpha version from the "features point of view", but it is almost a beta release from the "testing point of view". In other words (I know Avsim requires at least beta's) the tool works well, simply it is not completed (some features are missing).
I made this tool just for fun. So, if you really think is worthy going on with it, or that it's a funny/useful tool, please let me know.
If I see that the tool is useful for the Orbiter community, I will complete it more quickly and I will post a real beta release in a couple of weeks.

REMARK: you need Java to run this tool!

Lockheed C-130H

File Description:
FS2004 Lockheed C-130H Hercules This aircraft is built for FS2004. It should work with FS2002 without any problems, but I no longer support FS2002. This package is configured with a default panel. It is intended for use with the custom panel made by Ken Mitchel. You must obtain the panel in a seperate download. If you have not done so, it is available on my site. The base textures folder in this zip file contains base (unpainted) texture files for use in repainting. Note that the aircraft supplied in this package is supplied as is. While I endeavor to correct problems with the aircraft, I make no guarantee that any problem real or perceived will be fixed. Suggestions for enhancements and fixes will be implemented solely at my discretion. Please don't waste my time with subjective "perceived" issues like "The nose is too round", "The tail is too small", "The wing is the wrong color", etc. I have made every effort to make the model as accurate as I am able and willing, and will not modify it further to fit anyone's personal specifications.

New Alternate Roads for FlightOne "USRoads"

File Description:
USA Roads" is a software add-on for MS Flight Simulator 2004 (FS9) marketed by Flight One Software, Inc. and Scenery Solutions. It replaces the default roads and highways which are sparse and only approximate in location, with correctly placed roads, down to the street level. It has been said by some that "US Roads" look unrealistic, like looking at a Road-Map, because the roads are too bright and clean. In real life the roads are darker and partially concealed by vegetation. I have spent hours looking at aerial photos on the net, and was surprised at how "US Roads" looks very realistic, especially when comparing FS "top-down" views with map-type color photos. The light color roads are very prominent in the pictures, as are the clean lines. In my new "Alternate US Roads", I have modified the various roads using different methods, including actual road photographs, changes in road color and brightness, and the use of irregular transparency to soften the lines and give the illusion of vegetation partially obscuring the roadse. Most textures use images adapted from "US Roads" by kind permission of the author. Extract to a temporary file, and follow the ReadMe!
