| Sukhoi Su-9 'Fishpot-B' |
|
File Description:
The Sukhoi Su-9 'Fishpot-B' was the Su-7's interceptor counterpart, serving exclusively with the Soviet IA-PVO (air defence force). The tailed delta Su-9 was generally similar in configuration to the MiG-21, though larger and heavier.
This aircraft was never exported outside the Soviet Union, and saw
active duty for only a comparitively brief period before other aircraft developments moved the Su-9 into second line service.
The Su-11 all-weather interceptor was a refinement of the Su-9 with a new engine, new radar and improved armament. The Sukhoi 'FISHPOT' was withdrawn from Soviet service around 1980.
The Su-9 prototype was the T-3 experimental aircraft that had its maiden flight on May 26, 1956. About 1,000 Su-9s and a number of training two-seaters were produced until 1962. The Su-9 was added into the Soviet Air Defence Service inventory in October 1960 and remained in service until the end of 1970s.
About 30 air regiments were armed with Su-9, including 3 regiments in the Moscow Air Defence Region.
The Su-9 took part in interceptions of ultra high flying USAF U-2 reconnaissance aircraft in the early 60's.

File Description:
Dimensionally identical to the first-generation Constellation (L-049), the
post-war 749 had more powerful engines, additional fuel tanks, strengthened
landing gear, and much improved performance. Equally good for shuttle hops
and long-range flights, L-749 Connies entered service with major 1950s
carriers such as Eastern, TWA, B.O.A.C., Air France, KLM, Quantas, and many
others. Another customer was the Air Force, which placed an order for ten
aircraft (designated C-121A) in 1948.
Included in this sim package are seven
models and five textures, covering variants with and without "Speedpak"
cargo pannier, weather radar, and "jetstack" exhausts. KLM texture by Jaap
de Baare (representing "Flevoland", the last 749 in flying condition today).
TWA texture N6003C "Star of America" by Hans Herrmann. EAL, Air France, and
MATS textures by Manfred Jahn (including "8609", a frequent visitor to
airshows all over the world until 2005). Panel textures and additional
gauges by Diego S. Barreto, model and VC by Manfred Jahn, panels, gauges,
and animations by Hansjoerg Naegele, flight dynamics by Luis Pallas,
wingview angles, lights, and exhaust effects by Bill Tyne and Roland Berger,
checklist and documentation by Volker Boehme, flight test and handling
research by Stefan Werner. The 749 project has been hosted by Tom Gibson's

| B-2A Spirit Stealth Bomber |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
The B-2A Stealth Bomber is the most sophisticated aircraft on the planet. She is essentially a “Flying Wing†platform with no V-Tail, and is controlled by pre-programed flight computers stationed in various positions within the crew cabin and wings. There is one main computer that controls the aircraft, with two redundant back-up computers assigned to it in case of failure. All additional computers are assigned to functions involving flight control, system monitoring, data communications, and radar. Engine and Aerodynamic effects are controlled by these computers which serve several actuators and ailerons, including the spoilerons, which further compensate for the lack of a V-Tail. In theory, and because of these computers, the aircraft is “Stall-Proofâ€. The only way it can stall is if the computers fail. There is no way she can be flown without the computers active. The REAL aircraft does almost everything based on pre-programed data, other than taxi to the runway (although this is also possible to program). Before each flight, the Mission is designed and then assigned to the Mission Flight Box (Portable Computer) which is then carried by the Commander to the aircraft, and the data from the box is “transferred†to the main on-board computers. Because of this, the B-2 cannot be flown until the box is ready for the mission, and pilots cannot simply jump in and fly her, with the exception that the data is transferred via satellite. Everything is pre-planned, and this takes several hours. Once the data is on-board, the taxi can begin. When lined-up on the runway, all the pilot needs to do is push a button or three. Everything else is computer controlled until landing. The aircraft CAN be flown manually with basic data inputs into the main computer systems, but even in that case it is not conventional. If a pilot wants to turn right, he sets the data to turn to a certain degrees of heading. The same with climb and descent, speed increase or decrease. A pilot cannot over-ride the computers in any case, so steep banks, climbs, or descents cannot be forced. There is a lot of space for the two member crew within the cockpit, but there is also a space reserved for one observer. This additional seat is known as “Suicide Position†because there is no ejection seat for that observer. In the event of a mishap, the observer can try to bail-out through the ejection hatches after the pilots, or can try the exit ramp door, or the bomb bay as an exit route. The odds of escape for the observer are very small, but he has a parachute as reassurance. Otherwise, what the crew does during missions is only a guess, since they really don't have to do anything unless an alarm goes off. Since the plane flies so smooth, we can only imagine what sort of things they may dream-up to entertain themselves during a long flight. High altitude flights are conducted at night mainly due to the obvious contrail such a flight will exhibit during the day with such hot engines. The engines are encased in a heat absorbing shield material (still exhaust exists), and the rest of the plane is coated with Radar absorbant material, with the additional low profile effect of the aircraft design itself. If it can be seen by the ground or a fighter, it can be attacked by fighters or the ground. During daytime flight they will stay below the contrail level, and monitor the radar systems in preparations for counter-measures. If a fighter can visually observe them, the fighter may be able to shoot them down with bullets from behind, but not likely with missiles because of the sophisticated counter-measures available. On Radar the aircraft appears the size of a pigeon, until about 8 to 10 miles away, which would be too late to counter from the ground, so most attacks are either done at night or during the day at very low altitude. Upon landing the aircraft is automated down to about 200 feet AGL, when the pilot takes command. All she/he does at this point is allow her to glide down and contact the runway, and retard the engines. Brakes are used to slow, then the computers are turned off, and the pilot can control the throttles, nose gear, and brakes. The Commander watches for obstructions, mainly, and communicates with the tower and ground crew. Everything in this model has been reconfigured to meet realistic standards, without any tricks or flight tuning, and following real world aerodynamic principals and available data, including MOI. The panel requires study before use, but very realistic. The sounds are very authentic. There is no other model offered anywhere that compares to what you have now available in front of you. Please read and study the Readme.txt file within the main folder before attempting to fly this 2.2 Billion Dollar aircraft. Yes, that's correct ... $2,200,000,000 each!

| New Vickers VC10 panel, Part 1 |
|
File Description:
This is part 1 of two downloads.
This project is based on David Maltby's panel for the Vickers VC10, model available here: www.dmflightsim.co.uk/vickers_vc10.htm.
The project's aim is to enhance the cockpit experience by re-activating numerous gauges, switches and lights that previously had no function. It also introduces some new gauges and windows that are not in the original model. And, to bring the cockpit procedures as close as possible to the real checklists. To this end it contains voicechecklist files, a cockpit briefing and interactions with the cabin crew including a safety briefing.
The cockpit instrumentation has also been brought up to date with modern requirements and practices. And, as well as a number of new additional windows there is also a new night cockpit. The checklists are taken from the original BOAC flight manual and are extremely detailed as they are designed for a three man crew! So, as a single "sim" pilot you will be very busy! I have made well over 100+ additions and changes making this a comprehensive update. The original model was very similar to how one drives a car. That is get in, turn on the ignition and drive off!! You will find this update very different as it intentionally brings you much much closer to the reality of handling a high performance heavy jet especially one as complex as the elegant VC10!

| Flight Simulator First Officer V2.2 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Flight Simulator First Officer is a generic virtual copilot for FSX and FS9. The primary function of FSFO is to assist the Pilot In Command (PIC) to fly the aircraft safely while adhering to Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). This is accomplished via virtual checklist and sharing of cockpit duties/responsibilities. Specifically, the First Officer reads the following configurable checklist: Before Start, After Start, Before Takeoff, In-Range, After Landing and Shutdown. After reading the checklist items, the Copilot will wait to ensure you (i.e. the pilot) have configured the aircraft correctly before proceeding to the next item. Also, the Virtual copilot is capable of performing the following actions: Call Vspeeds based on your input, Raise the Landing Gear on Takeoff, Retract the Flaps, Manage the taxi/landing lights, Land the Aircraft, Tune the ILS frequencies, Call Climb Power based on your input, Reset Vertical Speed when the Aircraft is within 1000 ft of the programmed altitude, IAS warning (e.g. Aircraft is above 250 IAS while below 10000 ft), GS Warnings (e.g. Aircraft is above 25 knots while taxing), Resets the altimeter to standards when passing TA, Engage Heading Hold on Takeoff, Engage Altitude Hold on Takeoff, Reset Speed on Takeoff, Engage Speed Hold on Takeoff, Engages Rev Thrust on Landing, Ground Proximity Warning System (GPWS) and much more...

| CropDusterX Compatibility Mod for Alabeo's Pawnee |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This package modifies Alabeo's Piper Pawnee for a seamless use with Lorby-SI's CropDusterX, a dynamic, not mission based crop-dusting module (both payware, to be purchased separately).
Both external and VC models were modified as follows :
- Lightbar display added just behind the cowling (the bar can be toggled close to the windshield to improve readibility of the dot lines in some harsh lighting conditions)
- Control panel for the Satloc equipment added in the VC for easy and immersive use
- Dusting agent level window (right in front of the control stick) changes with the load carried by the Pawnee
- Dusting works only if :
- electrical power is available
- spray system switch is on
- spray shut-off valve is open
- spray fan brake is released
- airspeed above 50 kn
Alabeo's load simulating gauge is desactivated to allow CDX to run smoothly.
This mod also includes small changes/fixes by yours truly :
- The radio requires electrical power and radio switch on to emit/receive comms
- the spray fan between the landing gear spins if the airspeed is above 50 kn and that the fan brake is released

| F-51D Mustang "Was That Too Fast" (N151JT) |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
A repaint only for the payware Warbirdsim product 'Mustang Tales'. This repaint depicts the latest P-51D restoration to emerge from the workshops of Midwest Aero Restorations. The aircraft, P-51D-20-NA 44-63577, is registered to Jon Veseley as N151JT. Finished in the markings of a 36th FIS, 12th FBG F-51D named "Was That Too Fast", the aircraft's first post-restoration flight occurred on July 14 in the hands of veteran Mustang pilot Vlado Lenoch. The aircraft has several details that make it unique to match the configuration of typical Korean War era Mustangs, including an ARC-3 radio set and rocket launchers - and not to mention the authentic markings and post-WWII stencils. The history of the airframe dates back to late 1944 when it was originally delivered to the USAAF, and it spent almost four decades in Uruguay with much of that time spent as a static display at the Uruguay AF Museum. Its recent return to the air marks the first time the aircraft has flown in over 50 years! This repaint includes new VC textures for a factory fresh appearance throughout. Expect to see this aircraft present at Oshkosh 2013!

| Albania Air Force F-2(MiG-15bis) 5-32 |
|
File Description:
Albania Air Force MiG-15bis(Shenyang F-2)5-32. The F-2 was a variant modified by the Shenyang facilities in China of the model MiG-15bis. The planes were powered with a Chinese version of the VK-1A, the WP-5A and the addition of an access panel on the port side of the nose. This version was exported also to Bangladesh, North Korea, Pakistan, Sudan, Tanzania and North Vietnam. The first delivery batch of 24 MiG-15bis for Albania was delivered from the USSR on the 31th of January, 1955. The planes were relatively older and according to ground crews, some had clear evidence of battle damage indicating service in the Korean War. The first flight of the plane in Albania took place on April 7th, a public display flight over the capital on 1th May. In the early '60s the F-2's were added to the inventary of the Albanian Air Force. In the early 90's the planes were still in service together with the original Russian MiG-15bis with the 2th Squadron at the Valona Air Academy.

| Douglas VC-54C-1-DO 'Sacred Cow' |
|
File Description:
Built a C-54A-5-DO Skymaster at Santa Monica, CA, for the USAAF (c/n 7470) and delivered on 26 January 1944. Converted to VC-54C-1-DO for personal use by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Irreverent journalists promptly named it 'Sacred Cow'. The VC-54C contained an electric elevator to lift the polio-struck Roosevelt and his wheelchair on board. The elevator was raised from the ground into the aircraft's belly for which purpose a hatch in the bottom of the fuselage could be opened. President Roosevelt made only a few flights with the 'Sacred Cow', the most famous journey being to and from the Yalta Conference with Stalin and Churchill in the Soviet Union.
Following the death of Roosevelt, his successor Harry S. Truman continued using the 'Sacred Cow' till July 1947. Nowadays the aircraft is on display at the Air Force Museum at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio, be it with a different serial number. These are textures only. You will require Jens B. Kristensen's great Douglas DC-4 & C-54 (dc4_v21.zip). Original textures by Jens B. Kristensen. Repaint by Maarten Brouwer.
