| Hopping Round the World Adventure - Pack 2 |
|
File Description:
So far, you have survived Hopping Round the World Adventure Pack 1. Landing the second leg was quite an eye opener about what is in store in this adventure. Some airports seem to disappear right before your eyes while landing. Put that IFR to use or you're done for. Mountains and hilltops to close for comfort? As your adventure continues over the Brazilian landscape you end up in the Amazon. Handle that Boeing 747-400 Cargo as you complete the last leg. More real-world weather and sim surprises for sure. Hotel, Roger, Whiskey. Cleared for takeoff!

| South African Airways "Old Colors" Boeing 777-200LR |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a repaint of the PMDG 777-200LR in the old South African Airways Colours. It is of course also a completely fictitious repaint. South African Airways (SAA) never operated any Boeing 777 variant, however the inspiration for this model comes from an old B767 SAA operated named "Protea" with registration ZS-SRA. Over the years, SAA used subtle differences in their iconic livery as far as the motive of the nose is concerned - sometimes the nosecone was completely blue, other times left white with the trademark blue and orange lines not running through it stopping at the nosecone, and sometimes the lines passed through the nosecone. Given that this is a fictitious repaint, I have used a little artistic freedom and gave this aircraft the totally blue nosecone which I like a lot. The user will see that the thumbnail in FSX contains the PMDG logo - please note that it is only intended to depict that is a paint for use with the PMDG series 777-200 for FSX and PMDG own all rights to their logo, no copyright infringement is intended or should be inferred.
I should add that I am by no means a professional repainter, but enjoy the task and enjoy sharing these old liveries with fellow enthusiasts - therefore it is not perfect, but a close rendition of what it would have looked like in this colour scheme. Enjoy!

| ZSGS - Zhuhai Janwan Airport - Zhuhai, China |
|
File Description:
The Zhuhai Sanzao airport (ZGSD/ZUH, China), close to Macao, was built on request of someone who found it included in the FMC of PMDGs 737NGX, but missed in FSX. I used ADE and the Google based old version 2 of Plan-G (thanks to both authors) and some charts being available in the internet. However, it is equipped with standard buildings which are roughly adapted to the real dimensions well. Lighting, windsocks, taxisigns and moving jetways. Of course I added both ILS as well. There is a big exhibition apron on the airport which is modeled but blocked for AI traffic. You will see the lines of the taxiways nevertheless. The latest temporary chart (Nov 2012) shows a third apron which is not realised and I'm not planning to do so (obviously the whole site is still under construction).
As being built on a FSX island (which is now a peninsula) and default coast lines not fitting to the real position of the airport (Rwy05 was hanging in the water) I decided to compromise in a way that I corrected the area in the vicinity of the airport but respected the remaining part as it was in the default scenery. The attached pictures should give an impression even if I'm not using the pure default scenery. Therefore this little patch should be compatible to advanced mesh sceneries.

File Description:
Korean Airlines Boeing 747-8B5/i (HL7630). REPAINT ONLY FOR FSX PMDG 747-400 expansion pack -8i/-8f
This livery is still fictional but I tried to collect as much data as I could from the -400 model as well as the concept/
previews of the -8i model. The real Korean 748i is still unpainted but is sitting in storage at Paine Field.
Features:
1. Korean Airlines Logo (New Livery with correct positions in referenced to the aircraft concepts).
2. Accurate placement of the SkyTeam Logo.
3. Korean text below the first class windows.
4. Studied and averaged precise sky blue color for fuselage.
5. Grey Stripe also averaged for closest match.
6. Grey Engine colors.
7. Korean Airlines Logo on the engines (accurate placement and removed engine warnings).
8. Studied design to create the "Closest" experience to the real thing.
9. White window door frames.
9. Boeing 747-8i decal above the last set of 8 windows (in Boeing font and accurate dark blue color).
10.Registration on the tail in accurate position, spacing, font, and color.
11.Korean Air logo flipped correctly (right side) and Flag included on top.
12.Added dirt textures to tail and aft belly.
13.Registration in accurate place on wing (color and font also studied and accurate).
14.Registration included on bottom of the wing as well.

| Pioneer 4 Add-on for Orbiter |
|
File Description:
Pioneer 3 and 4 were early satellites designed to be lofted toward Earth's Moon. They were equipped with Geiger counters to measure radiation in space. Pioneer 3 was launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida, on December 6, 1958.
Because of a slight error in the satellite's velocity and angle after burnout of the Juno II rocket, it did not reach the Moon; instead it achieved a peak altitude of 102,320 kilometers (63,580 miles). The satellite did, however, discover a second radiation belt around Earth during its flight. Pioneer 3 reentered Earth's atmosphere over equatorial Africa a day after launch.
Pioneer 4 was launched March 3, 1959, and successfully passed within 60,000 kilometers (37,300 miles) of the Moon the following day. The satellite was tracked for 82 hours to a distance of 655,000 kilometers (407,000 miles) from Earth, a record at that time. Pioneer 4 is now orbiting the Sun, the first U.S. spacecraft placed in solar orbit.
The Orbiter version will do a little better than get you within 60,000 kilometers like the real one achieved. The flight profile included usually will get you to within 8,000 kilometers, and sometimes, depending on the mood of your copy of Orbiter, may even impact the moon! However since installations may vary, your distance to the moon on arrival, or even impacting the moon, is not guaranteed. Just like the real thing!

| KPHX - Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport |
|
File Description:
This is an AFCAD2 for the default Phoenix Sky Harbor airport. My most accurate AFCAD yet. I was able to use the jetway shadows and others objects on the default land mass to accurately place each gate in the exact real life position they were when the photograph was taken. I utilized other satellite images and many photos from airliners.net to help verify exact gate and airline locations. Only difference here unfortuantely is there are no jetways, only jetway shadows. Maybe someone can make some jetways for this KPHX? 99.9% of all gates at the real airport are present in this AFCAD, and properly numbered. I've also included the cargo and military ramp, America West and Southwest maintenance parking, as well as added a few GA gates for you civil flyers. This AFCAD is roughly as of March 2005, so parts of Taxiway Echo near Terminal 4-D are closed and under construction in the AFCAD. I've closed 8/26 for takeoffs and used it with 7R/25L for landings. 7L/25R will be used as the primary takeoff runway. I think that covers everything. If you have time, select the Top-Down view in your sim, and you can see all the jetways from the land mass lined up with each aircraft. Kinda cool, enjoy! :) If there are any errors, let me know. Thanks.

| Project Mercury Addon Enhancement Pack |
|
File Description:
An enhancement package for the Project Mercury addon for Orbiter created by Rob Conley at the Medville Space Center http://home.alltel.net/estar/orbiter.html This enhancement pack contains updates to the REDSTONE, ATLAS rockets and the MERCURY Spacecraft. The REDSTONE texture was hand crafted in MS Paint (believe it or not) using archived pictures of both Freedom-7 and Liberty Bell 7 pre launch pictures as guides. It is now historically accurate, and cleaned up quite a bit. The ATLAS now sports a realistic corrigated booster section (with the texture taken right from a picture of Gordo Coopers pre-launch Atlas) and the upper section now has the frosty look that occured with the Atlas when it was loaded with LOX and fuel, and some historically accurate markings were included. The improvements to the MERCURY CAPSULE are numerous. It sports a real window (texture taken from a close up shot of Friendship-7), more darker exterior color that is more accurate, crisper detail, improved antenna housing and capsule top. Please note that there are TWO versions of the capsule exterior texture included. One called CAPMAIN.DDS sports a realistic name printed on the exterior, not assiciated with any real mission (America 7), and the other texture, CAPMAIN-NOLOGO.DDS, has no logo imprinted. Refer to the README file for instructions on how to change this to the non-logo capsule.

| Nick's Prop Dust with Control Gauges |
|
File Description:
Prop aircraft users are in for a real treat. This gauge/effects package automatically senses the terrain the aircraft is in contact with or flying over and changes the dust and water effects for the aircrafts prop/rotor wash based on dirt, dry mud or clay, snow, rain, water, ice, sand, gravel and short grass. In addition the real time surface conditions are also sensed. In example, a dry asphalt or concrete runway will produce no dust, however, the same runway with snow conditions present will automatically produce a throttle controlled snow blowing effect. The 25 included effects files and 5 gauges have been tuned to reflect a realistic representation of the dust/mist produced by different types of aircraft taking off or touching down on different terrains and surface conditions. The effects are properly influenced by cross wind conditions and reverse pitch is also supported. Effects files and gauges are included for large and small, single engine, multi-engine, amphibians, helicopters and massive scale military and commercial transports. It requires editing/adding lines in the aircraft.cfg and panel.cfg files. The README files include very complete and comprehensive instructions including a quick and easy copy/paste file for all the Microsoft prop aircraft and tutorial on making custom gauges from the ones provided.
