| Airport ID Gauge - UPDATE |
|
File Description:
At the request of several users, I have edited the xml script for the Airport ID gauge to make the displayed text more easily read. Instead of a Green ICAO code and Red airport name and city, the text is now all Green. Also the icon has been changed to black and white so it blends with the other default icons. This is just a replacement cab file so no further editing to what you may have already installed is necessary however a previous installation of Airport_ID.zip is required. Please unzip to a temporary folder and follow the very simple installation instructions. Compiled for your flying enjoyment by David "Opa" Marshall.

File Description:
Santa's Sleigh & 8 Reindeer - AI Version.
It is rumored that Rudolph is ill and may not be able to lead the Reindeer this Christmas so Santa is making some test flights with just the original eight reindeer. He has chosen a remote airfield near Steamboat Springs, Colorado (81CO) named Mesa 1. Of course you can place this AI version at the location of your choice. I have taken the original flyable model by Dundee Prototypical Simulations (available here as santa.zip) and tweaked it for use as an AI craft, using parameters usually associated with Helicopters to let Santa practice shorter takeoffs and landings.
ALL necessary files are included. Please unzip to a temporary folder and follow the simple installation instructions. As a bonus, there is also a set of instructions showing how to set this up as a continuously running display on your screen - a nice option for the Holidays. Compiled for Kids of all ages by David "Opa" Marshall.

File Description:
"Nessie" at Loch Ness, Scotland. The fabled sea monster has been sighted again in the Loch Ness! This scenery displays "Nessie" and possibly one of her offspring along with two animated AI fishing vessels which travel about Loch Ness. Be sure to bring along your camera! Tested in the default FS2004 setting only but will likely work with any enhancement of the area which does not alter the shorelines too drastically. Please unzip to a temporary folder and follow the easy, illustrated instructions. Compiled for your flying enjoyment by David "Opa" Marshall.

File Description:
Opa's Campground. A ficticious campground located on the shores of beatiful Lake Texoma on the Texas-Oklahoma border. Created with the EZ and RWY12 Object placing programs, the scenery is packed with eye candy and some unusual features including AI Helicopter rides, an AI Windsurfer and AI boats moving about the lake plus fireworks on the 4th of July. There is a landing strip at the campground for those who arrive by air and start locations for seaplanes and automobiles. Lago sound files are included for those who have the Lago FSE program (optional). The scenery is designed to be used with the default FS2004 setup - it is not compatible with Ultimate Terrain - USA. If you are seeking a great place to "get away" for some fun, this is it. Please unzip (using folders option) to a temporary folder and follow the simple installation directions.
