| Outer Terrain GTL Grid Structure Map v2.0 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This version of my GTL grid structure map includes Andre's new outer terrain area north of Seattle and adds a search facility, which enables you to search for a tile using FU3 world co-ordinates. To find out the world co-ordinates of any OT area simply open Fled, set the top-down view to the latitude/longitude of the area you're interested in and click the latitude/longitude figures that appear in the bottom left hand corner of the screen. The latitude/longitude figures will disappear and be replaced by FU3 world co-ordinates as easting and northing values. Enter these values into my FU3 GTL Map, click the button and the spreadsheet will map these co-ordinates to the correct tile and return the tile name. If you don't know the latitude/longitude of the area you're interested in then you can always obtain this from within the game itself. Just start a flight in the area you're interested in and press Ctrl-z at any time to enter Zoar mode. This will pause the game and display the current latitude/longitude in the top left hand corner of the screen.

| Visual GTL Editor |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a standalone program that allows you to change the terrain textures of outer terrain megatiles by applying altitude based rule changes. This means that the Editor allows you to do what FU3 does through the RULES.TXT file but in visual form and on a per tile basis. The Editor converts and displays l0xxxx.gtl files and their corresponding l5xxxx.geo elevation files to 512x512 bitmaps. It also displays useful information when moving the mouse across the main display, i.e. Min Alt, Max Alt, Alt Range, Alt Index, Texture and so on. The Index value is an altitude range corresponding to the 64 colours used to create the elevation bitmap and is useful when specifying Min Alt and Max Alt values for rule changes. You can apply up to 8 rule changes at a time (just repeat until you get the desired results), either to the entire tile or to a subsection defined as X and Y co-ordinates. The Editor displays X-origin and Y-origin values within the tile as an aid to this. You can use this with the default 13 textures or with my extended 26 textures.

| NAC de Havilland DH-114 Heron 1B |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description: In 1957 they were written from use. One Heron was sold to the UK but sadly suffered a fatal crash on delivery. The other three, including ZK-BBM, were stored and in 1960 sold to Fiji Airways (later Air Pacific). In November 1975 Rotorua-based Air North bought ZK-BBM from Air Pacific. Already in 1978 she made her final landing and was stored for years at Ardmore Airfield. Classic Flyers NZ, based at Tauranga Airport acquired the Heron in March 1989. Since then she has been restored for static display at the Classic Flyers Museum.
You will need the DH-114 package available at Classic British Flightsim.
New Zealand National Airways Corporation (NAC) was the first operator to receive the DH-114. From 1952 till 1957 NAC flew with four Herons 1B's, which were acquired to serve those airfields which could not take NAC's standard airliner of those days, the Douglas DC-3. The Herons primarily flew across Cook Strait (Rongotai-Blenheim-Nelson) and later also to Hamilton and Rotorua. Since many modifications were required for this new airliner, the Herons proved too costly.

| Chicago Midway Airport V2 |
|
File Description:
This is my second version of Chicago Midway Airport in Chicago IL for FSX. This version was created with Airport Design Editor 1.30, which was designed exclusively for use with FSX. The following improvements have been made: 1. All commercial and GA aircraft will park at their assigned spots. All gates for all airlines are included. 2. The vehicle paths have been redesigned, which should eliminate the problem of airport vehicles using taxiways, which can cause taxiing airplanes to come to a standstill and cause traffic to back up. 3. When in tower view, the view will be from the roof of the control tower, thanks to Airport Design Editor. 4. Crosswind runways have been activated, which will open more runways to airline traffic. This is an optional feature, and will be explained in the Readme file. 5. Several fuel trucks have been added, and should serve departing aircraft quickly. 6. Settings have been changed in ADE so that all jetways will display as long as Scenery Density in FSX is set at Normal or higher. Please be aware that this scenery is for use with FSX only. It will not work with FS9.

| Frontier Airlines Convair 580 v2 |
|
File Description:
This is an update of the great plane by Greg Pepper. Props now display the pitch visually - you can feather the props by pressing and holding Crtl-F2 and watch them rotate. Flaps deploy as proper Fowler flaps (i.e. slide back), and the flap/nacelle joint has been corrected to 45 degree angle. Air stair handrails now deploy realistically. Props have smooth curved edge, corrected right wing misalignment, pointed the rear fuselage, smoothed rear fuselage, and added view blocks in air intakes, prop spinners, main gear wells, and under stairs. Scissors links are added to the gear, the gear retraction cycle has been altered to match video footage, the nose has been
slightly reshaped, antennas have been added, glass has been added to the cockpit, and the airstairs plate reads correctly from the back as well as the front. Nosewheel
now steers with the rudder. Added reflective textures, and it is lit at night, albeit subtly, and the virtual cockpit gauges are lit. Altered Greg's original textures to match photos I had. Corrected blue textures showing on bottom fuselage. Greg has added a smoothed wing root too! Original model, animation, panel & textures by Greg Pepper.
Modifications by Tom Gibson.

File Description:
FS2004 - AI Flight Creator Version 1.7.5
AI Flight Creator is a utility designed to create AI FlightPlans for Microsoft's Flight Simulator FS2004. Built in support for Traffic Tools. The most difficult part of creating a new FlightPlan is to convert local time into GMT (UTC) to have the flights depart on time, both locally and internationally. AI Flight Creator allows you to select any Time Zone in the world, enter a local departure time and it will automatically convert the local time to GMT (UTC) time for your FlightPlan. Also supports Daylight Saving Time (DST). AI Flight Creator also has the ability to filter FlightPlans and display only the Departures or Arrivals for a selected Airport. It can randomly generate Aircraft Registration numbers with a user-defined prefix. Also provides support for Weekly departures and Touch and Go's. You'll need a copy of Lee Swordy's Traffic Tools to compile your new FlightPlans. Version 1.7.5 corrects a problem that can occur when loading flightplans. AI FlightPlan Creator is a companion utility to the AI FlightPlan Utilities package (AIFPE154.zip) available here at Flightsim. The previous version (1.7.4) had 1611 downloads.

| Gere Sport Biplane |
|
File Description:
The Gere Sport Biplane is a 30's era homebuilt biplane, designed and built by George "Bud" Gere, who was killed in an accident before he could witness his plane's first flight. Early models used Ford Model T and Model A engines. This FS2004 version is powered by a Continental C-90-12F engine, which gives it a cruise speed of over 100 mph. It was created using actual plans (from the EAA 1933 Flying Manual) and the flight model accurately simulates an actual Gere Sport (N4686T) that I owned and flew during the mid 80's. That plane was slightly tail-heavy, which might have been due to the large Maule tailwheel that it was fitted with. It was great for getting in and out of rough fields. Not much in the way of instruments, so this won't be your favorite IFR bird. TrackIR users: you'll find a lot of visual enhancements in the virtual cockpit, so be sure to look around. Features: engine cowling that opens to display detailed Continental C-90 engine. This plane will do nice aerobatics and incredible sideslips.

| Teterboro Airport, New Jersey |
|
File Description:
Teterboro Airport is located across the Hudson River in New Jersey, just 12 miles from midtown Manhattan, Teterboro Airport is considered a general aviation reliever airport. As a reliever airport, it does not offer scheduled airline service, nor does it permit operations of any aircraft in excess of 100,000 pounds on any airport surface. Teterboro Airport has five Fixed Base Operators (FBOs), Atlantic Aviation, Jet Aviation, First Aviation, Meridian, and Signature Aviation. Scenery includes Phototexture to cover the unattractive stock FSX airport ground texture. Along with Night, Fall and Winter varience textures. Autogen is placed on top of phototexture in specific areas. ALL airport objects have been placed in proper position to photoscenery. Aprons and taxiways in alignment with photostexture. Supports AI traffic for the pilots who use. Numerous Airport vehicles and stacic aircraft on the gounds. There are a few GMAX scenery objects along with Stock FSX objects. If you have cast ground shadows checked in your display feature, some of the vegetation will show black blocks on its base, so uncheck this if you wish. I designed this for all the Charter and General Aviation pilots out there, including myself.
