| "Himalayan Peaks" LOD10 Mesh, Volume 3 - Namcha Barwa |
|
File Description:
Highly detailed terrain mesh of the Namcha Barwa area, N29°-31° E94°-96°. The files in this package are based on Shuttle Radar (SRTM) Version 2 data but with many of the void areas, especially the most significant sections, filled with elevation data generated from topographic maps by Jonathan de Ferranti. While Jonathan's work is unrelated to flight simulation he kindly gave me permission to compile his data for use in FS. The result is a wonderful improvement in detail and accuracy over any existing mesh file, freeware or commercial, based on SRTM or DTED data alone. Due to the large area of the Himalayas I've compiled the source data as two separate series: the "Himalayan Peaks" series covers prominent mountains and ranges in higher detail and locally overrides any existing LOD9 terrain mesh. In addition, a LOD9 "base mesh" series covering the entire Himalayas will be available for those who do not yet have an add-on terrain mesh of these beautiful mountains.

| 737 757 767 777 VRIF GG PANEL v13 |
|
File Description:
This is Greetmir Goodeguard's modification of Ken Mitchell's great Boeing 757 panel. He has made these modifications to comply with his "VRIF" criteria. (Visibility Readablility Information & Functionality) This panel has been thoroughly tested and is believed it to be totally funtional as well as VERY FSNAV friendly.
Although this panel modification is designed to be an ideal panel for the Boeing 767 series, it surely can be used in any two engine jet especially Boeing 737's, 757's and 777's. Features of this panel include Ken Mitchell's super PFD and MFD gauges, Eric Mariciano's excellent sweep-hand TCAS Radar Gauge. Bob Guy's very informative Fuel Statistics Gauge and the MSFS 2004 GPS System.
This is a stand-alone panel with all files, gauges, bitmaps and installation as well as PFD and MFD use instructions included. This panel is intended for FS2004 (FS9) and has NOT been tested on FS2002 or FS2000.

File Description:
JUST IN TIME FOR HURRICANE SEASON ... The E-3D Sentry, known to the RAF as the AEW1, is a fully modified and re-engined Boeing 707-320B aircraft. Mission endurance is approximately 11 to 15 hours (over 5,000 nm), although this can be extended by air-to-air refuelling when necessary. The normal crew complement of 18 comprises four flight-deck crew, three technicians and an 11-man mission crew. The aircraft cruises between FL300 and FL430, and its Northrop Grumman AN/APY-2 high-performance, multimode lookdown radar (rotodome), housed in the black radome, is able to separate airborne and maritime targets from ground and sea clutter. The aircraft is also used for weather recon detail dispatched world-wide, and can survive extreme weather conditions including hurricane force winds at low altitude.

| Bristol Britannia |
|
File Description:
A highly detailed and comprehensive panel designed for Mike Stone's Bristol
Britannia aircraft. In addition to the standard instrumentation, includes cabin
announcements, traffic radar, fuel management etc.
Also requires a) FSUIPC (the latest version is always available at http://www.schiratti.com/dowson.html and is essential for the operation of some of the gauges in this panel), b) (optional) Flight Deck Sound Effects available here at AVSIM - fdsfxpnl.zip, and c) (optional) GPWS Altitude Call-Out Sounds available here at AVSIM - fpda_a330_callout.zip.
The manual is available in plain text format in this main download, or you can download an illustrated manual separately from the same download site in PDF format (britpanm.zip).
This is the result of over eighteen months of development and has been produced
specifically as a thankyou to all the people that have produced free add-ons that I have benefitted from.
I hope this enhances the pleasure of flying the only British-built long long-range turboprop airliner.

| High-resolution 76-m (LOD9) Terrain Mesh and Scenery Enhancements for the Southern Canadian Rockies |
|
File Description:
Not simply an add-on mesh, these files include many scenery enhancements for the southern Rockies of British Columbia and Alberta. Coverage extends from Cranbrook to Calgary, and Hinton to Edmonton (N48.9-53.4 W112.3-116.3). The mesh source data are 3-arcsec (~90-m) Shuttle Radar (SRTM) files, compiled at LOD9 (76-m) resolution. All lake elevations (!) have been adjusted to eliminate the problems with the default lake data and to better fit the new terrain mesh. In addition, the Transcanada Highway/Icefields Parkway corridor in Banff National Park, from Canmore to the Hwy 11 junction, has been completely re-made, with dozens of alpine lakes (including Lake Louise, Moraine Lake, and Lake O'Hara), accurate transportation network, and landclass/waterclass updates based on satellite imagery. Due to significant changes in FS2004 to vector layering and autogen features, the special scenery enhancements cannot be used with FS2002. However, terrain mesh, lake corrections and landclass replacements will work well in FS2002.

| F/A-18 Combat Version |

File Description:
FSX F/A-18 Combat Version. This is the Acceleration F/A-18 Hornet equipped with 20mm M61 cannon and a fully functional air-to-air gun mode found in the real F/A-18. With the two radar modes, the two gun sights and the flying tracers, the virtual dogfight will be very similar to a real one. You will not be able to shoot down other aircraft, but you will receive an immediate indication on your HUD if a bullet hit the bandit. The flight model is unchanged from the Acceleration F/A-18 except for allowing manually controlled flaps and reducing the arresting wire tension for smoother carrier landings. The HUD is an upgrade of the Realistic F/A-18 HUD by Jivko Rusev and Scott Printz, which allows ILS and TACAN navigation for aircraft carriers. You will also get a couple of additional gauges - an In-Flight Refueling Gauge, PLAT Camera and a Carrier Landing Gauge. By Jivko Rusev.

File Description:
Textures for Jens B. Kristensen's excellent Douglas DC-4/C-54, repainted by Manfred Meyer.
This are textures only, You need to download and install DC4_V30.ZIP by J. B. Kristensen, use the cargo model with no radar nose!
These textures depict N529D (c/n 10748) of Caicos International Limited.
The aircraft was delivered in june 1945 as 42-72643 to the USAAF. After conversion to DC-4 in 1946 she went to China and flew for CNAC and CAT as XT-T-07 and XT-102. 1949 the plane came into US register as N4890V and served with several companies like Trans Ocean, Southwest, Riddle and Flying Tiger. 1960 she goes to Paraguayan Air Service as ZP-CBP and later in 1968 to SAM Colombia as HK-529. Bought by Florida Aircraft Leasing in 1970 and leased 1973 to 1975 to Caicos International Limited.
After then flew for Anglers Club and Southern Aero Trades, after all it believed destroyed in Colombia 1979.

| Wake Island (PWAK) |

File Description:
FS2004 photo scenery and AI package for Wake Island (PWAK) in the Pacific. Seemingly drifting in a strategic yet isolated position Wake Island-an atoll really-was one of the loneliest outposts of the United States. Originally a gas station for Pan Am's 'Clipper' flying boats, Wake was also a strategic air base during the Second World War. This continued with the Cold War as Wake became a centerpiece of the Pacific Radar Net against the Soviets.
With the thawing of Eastern Europe and the advent of more efficient jet aircraft Wake slowly drifted back to the quiet backwater it is again today, home to a handful of civilian caretakers and local wildlife. This scenery attempt to recapture Wake in the early 1980's when it still performed a semi-regular duty as gas station and pit stop. (This is a reload of the scenery due to the Hack attack - no changes to previous package)

| Event Logger v2 |
|
File Description:
This is version 2 of a diagnostic gauge, targeted primarily at gauge and panel authors. It writes all Key_Events issued in FSX or FS9 to a log file, thus allowing the detection of repeating Key_Events which interfere with normal panel operation. It will not identify the gauge issuing the repeating Key_Events, but by identifying the Key_Events themselves, it should make the gauge issuing them somewhat easier to locate. If you have a panel which does not allow the selection of a second engine or exit, or which exhibits improper autopilot operation, this gauge may help you discover why. Updates include a displayed count of the number of Key_Events issued by the sim, along with a tooltip display of the most recently issued Key_Event. Code signed for use in FSX.
