File Description:
This is a repaint of the DC-3 in Aloha Airlines colors. The freeware DC-3/C-47 v3 by Manfred Jahn is needed for this repaint. Aloha was founded in 1946 under the name of Trans Pacific Airways. With a single DC-3, they offered passenger charter and cargo services between the islands of Oahu, Maui and Hawaii. On February 11 1949 they officially became a scheduled service airline. Their main rival was Hawaiian Airlines, and in 1957 they changed their name to Aloha Airline to better compete against Hawaiian. In 1959 a modern F-27 joined the fleet, which forced the retirement of Aloha's aging DC-3 fleet by the mid 1960s. They also introduced the Viscount 745D in June 1961. BAC-111s were acquired in 1966. However, the British made airliners had limitations in the very humid environment of Hawaii, and in 1967 Aloha ordered 2 Boeing 737-200s with a further 6 in 1968 to replace the BAC-111s. The 737s were destined to become the workhorse of the airline, with over 60 being used by Aloha over the years. Their iconic "Flower Power" livery was unveiled in 1969, and was reintroduced in 2006 on one of their 737 as a retro livery. Due to heavy financial problems caused by various factors, Aloha unfortunately ceased operations on March 31 2008. This DC-3, N2804D, was leased by Aloha in the late 1950s. Textures are DDS DXT5. This repaint was tested on FSX-SE and should work on FSX & P3D v1-3.

| Airbus A318 FD Special Version V3 - Light Pack |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is the new version of my Airbus A318 with the Panel in V3 opened on the A321 - here in a light pack version, included is 1 livery only (Frontier Airlines NR807 Painted by Derek Mayer & Steve Mac Bee of PA Team).
This light pack contains only the user manual in english version (and low resolution). If you want the french version of this manual, use the "zipdrive" function with the complete pack of this aircraft (search by name file "pa318fd_v3.zip"). This light version has been made by request for all those with low download speeds and limits.
The original complete pack is available HERE (filename: pa318fd_v3.zip)
I remind you that this aircraft is based on the Project Airbus A318, with an ehanced panel based on the work of stefan Liebe.
This latest development can see the more realistic Airbus available as freeware. With a new version of the panel, the aircraft has a 100% cold & dark Status at the start of a flight, a real fuel system management with all valves, piumps and crossfeed work, the complete Bleed circuit with X-bleed, a real engines manual startup procedure like the real aircraft. I have also ehanced the navigation display with TCAS function in ARC and NAV mode; There is also the engines failure procedure to work (fire, oil leaks....) and many improved function that I cannot describe here. The aircraft comes with user manual in English and in French, and it is essantial to read it before you fly.
All the functions of the V2 have been kept and improved, like the vertical navigation gauge, the terrain radar map on the navigation display, the autolanding function, the SFCC.
This version is only in CFm engines, but with real engine data (CFM56-5B9) and custom HD sounds. Now, the Fly By wire works in 2 modes: "Normal Law" and "Direct Law". I put 300 hours into the development of this panel and I hope that you will like it.
Please, note that this panel is the v3.05 version, witch fixes the bugs of the first version that came with the A321 (there is an update panel for the A321).
So, It seems that this aircraft works with PREPAR3D

| Lismore Regional Airport (YLIS) |
|
File Description:
A very attractive small airport approximately 130 nautical miles from Coffs Harbour and a slightly shorter distance to Grafton and Ballina. This makes a good stopover for hopping down the east coast of Australia. The airport handles around 7 flight a day from Sydney and is also a busy GA aiport. A new terminal is a major feature of the airport with a very modern design. This terminal was opened on Dec 9 2000 and replaces an older style building to be found in the general aviation area. The terminal is at the northern end of the aiport and the GA area the furthest south.
The size of the airport has allowed me to put in that extra detail which makes the terminal and surrounds very much "as in real life". Photographic textures are used throughout for the buildings, trees and shrubs. Thanks to the cooperation of the airport manager and Lismore Council, the owners of the airport, a very accurate model of the airport has been produced from over 250 photographs taken on site. AFCAD and Traffic Tools files are included to add extra AI traffic. For that reason and because of limited apron space few static planes have been used. In addition a landclass is included to make the airport ground texture resemble the real thing and also to widen the river and show the lake to the east of the airport..
The scenery concentrates on adding a realistic terminal to the airport and hangars which are as close as possible to the real thing. Many other details have been added all authentically Lismore.
Some night lighting is included including some very distinctive airport lights in the car park.

| Piaggio P-149D FS-X DX9 Edition |
|
File Description:
This is a re-edition of the Piaggio P-149D with FS-X retail\SP1\2\Accel DX9 compatibility (DX10 users need to convert textures). The original model for FS-2004 is MN_P149D.zip + P149_FIX.zip available on AVSIM & www.mariopilot.6x.to. P_149_fix.zip is already included in this FS-X update.
The Piaggio P-149 is a trainer-laison aircraft. It first flew in June 19th, 1953. I'ts a development of the P-148 model, with increased seat cpacity, tricycle retractable landing gear and a more powerful engine, featuring a three-bladed constant speed propeller. It was mainly used by German Luftwaffe as a training aircraft, that oredred 75 examples in 1955. Later in 1957 another 190 were manufactured under licence by Focke-Wulf. The D version is the one employed by Luftwaffe, while later some few P-149CH variants were used by Swissair as flying schools, and a few P-149U variants, with a new tailplane section to allow more rotation clearance on takeoff were used by Ouganda's Air Force. The P-149 Has a seating capacity of 4 with some examples being certified for 5 (both cases including pilot) and it's fully aerobatic, having G-limits set at +7\-4.5. After training activities ceased with Luftwaffe, several are still flying under civilian operators. This gMAX model features completely 3-D virtual cocpkit and cabin with advanced night lighting and custom special effects, plus a sound package recorded from the real thing. Simulates all systems onboard the real aircraft, coming with panel instructions. Flight Dynamics are built using only real data based on the 1% spreadsheet plus lots of manual tweaking for fine tuning. Read Notes before flying please... Enjoy!
Notes and documentation are the htm files in the P-149D aircraft folder.

| Ballina, New South Wales, Australia (YBNA) |

File Description:
A very attractive small airport approximately 120 nautical miles from Coffs Harbour and a slightly shorter distance to Grafton and Lismore. This makes a good stopover for hopping down the east coast of Australia. The airport handles around 11 flight a day from Sydney and is also a busy GA aiport. Airlines REX and Qantas link fly into Ballina. The size of the airport has allowed me to put in that extra detail which makes to terminal and surrounds very much "as in real life". Photographic textures are used throughout for the buildings and even the trees and shrubs are hand made macros from photographs at the airport. Thanks to the cooperation of Northern Airline Services - Mr Bruce Beesley the MD and Graeme from Ballina Council the relative position of all of the buildings are exactly to scale as shown on scale drawings of the airport. AFCAD and Traffic Tools files are included to add extra AI traffic. For that reason and because of limited apron space no static planes have been used. In addition a landclass is included to make the airport ground texture resemble the real thing and also to widen the river behind runway 24. The scenery concentrates on adding a realistic terminal to the airport and hangars which are as close as possible to the real thing. Many other details have been added all authentically Ballina. The default runway detail remain unchanged with the exception of VASI placement. Other than that the airport merges into the default scenery without the usual "green oasis" effect. Full night lighting is included plus a rather dubious attempt to model the inside of the terminal (strictly not to be taken too seriously)

| Delta "Pink" Boeing 787-8 Texture Fix |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
***If you downloaded Version 1 (qwdlpink7878.zip) please delete it and download this version. This corrects the mipmap issues which caused the first version to appear blurry within the sim!***
This is a fictional rendition of the stunningly beautiful Delta Breast Cancer Awareness Livery for the Qualitywings 787-8. This was a real livery Delta flew on a Boeing 757-232 (Tail Number N610DL) in the early 2000s. There are some subtle differences between the real livery and this repaint. The most notable is the addition of "Colleen's Jet" titling on the left side of the aircraft. I dedicate this jet to Colleen Marchesano. A very young beautiful wife and mother who lost her very sudden battle with Breast Cancer July of 2016. If you personally know a woman who was also affected by this disease and would like to dedicate your "Delta Pink" repainted QualityWings 787-8 to her, please see the "README FIRST PINK" text file for instructions on how to get a personalized titling for her on your jet (in place of "Colleen's Jet"). User can also select either GE or RR engines and can disable the SATCOM antenna.

| Titan Airways |
|
File Description:
Titan Airways flightplans. (done in MRAI format). They are based on some flights i had times for and cargo schedules included, some fictional charters and quite a lot of scheduled airlines flightplans like bmibaby, easyjet, Jet 2, BA, Flybe and Air Wales where by they are doing subcharters for these airlines the plans are 1hr 5 mins ahead of these scheduled airlines timetables otherwise accurate following their timetables, all flight numbers are accurate aswell. This is to stop clashes between the titan subcharter plane arriving at the airport at the same time as the real flight in like mrai plans, to avoid a clash with mrai fligthplans cos mine are in mrai format and to add realism to delays which would have happened usually if an airline has to subcharter an aircraft. Note that these are pretty much fictional fligthplans because this airline has very few schedules and sub charters its planes out to other airlines. Ive included real schedules + 1 hr 5 mins to add realism and to look like a subcharter that could possibly be done by one of the titan aircraft.

| XFCS 1.5 (Fly By Wire-plugin) |
|
File Description:
XFCS simulates fly-by-wire control of combat aircraft. See readme.pdf for indepth description.
News in version 1.5
- XFCS now works with X-Plane's autopilot. All autopilot commands are exectuted by the FCS control laws, resulting in excellent autopilot accuracy and seemless integration.
- Improved pitch response in AoA-demand mode.
- AoA-demand mode blends AoA and speed data, making it easier to control speed and glideslope with power adjustments.
- AoA-feedback in G-demand mode: Flying above 15 degrees angle of attack requires light stick backpressure. Many real control systems work this way.
- Inverted flight now requires slight forward stick pressure. A lot of pilots feel more at home with this behaviour and many real FCS�s have it.
- �Mach bucket� is now simulated. This is a common way to handle transsonic pitch buffeting. Max load factor is decreased by 2 G�s in the Mach .95 - 1.1 range.
- XFCS should now run faster on low end computers, having less effect on frame rate.
- Transition from ground mode to flight mode now follows pitch attitude instead of airspeed. This works better for most designs.

File Description:
KOGD-Ogden,Ut Take your sailboat to the Great Salt Lake inland sea or hike the many mountains and enjoy the vistas offered atop the lofty peaks. Visit the quiet mountain valley town of Eden to the east of KOGD with its annual balloon festival and summer fun on Pineview dam or spend the day shopping the shops of Brigham City to the north or Salt Lake City to the south. Fly over the Great Salt Lake to the west. See the Ogden airport come alive with this must have add-on. With the help of Google Earth and FS Earth I have recreated the Ogden airport, with its new taxiway A (from a site visit), and the surrounding cities and towns to look as real as possible. Made with Ultimate Terrain, but the airport should be ok with default FS9. (No guarantee though ;-) The scenery enhancements were made with Ultimate Terrain in place. I modified the landclass to look more like the real thing. The airport is very close to a exact replica of KOGD! The crane by the tower was there when I took the pictures so I included it.
