| RAF Church Fenton |
|
File Description:
RAF Church Fenton (ICAO: EGXG) was an Royal Air Force station in North Yorkshire, near the village of Church Fenton.
Plans for a new airfield adjacent to the village of Church Fenton were announced in June 1935, it was subject to protest from the local population particularly concerning the waste of valuable farming land and was close to an existing airfield not far away at Sherburn. Despite the protests construction started in early 1936 on the site, which was a mixture of private and West Riding County Council-owned farm land.
On 1 April 1937, the station was declared open and on 19 April the first station commander Wing Commander W.E. Swann assumed command. Within two months No. 71 Squadron RAF had arrived with their Gloster Gladiators.
Second World War
Opened in 1937, the station saw the peak of its activity during the years of the Second World War, when it served within the defence network of fighter bases of the RAF providing protection for the Leeds, Bradford, Sheffield and Humberside industrial regions.
During September 1940, it became home to the first RAF "Eagle squadron" of American volunteers being No. 71 Squadron RAF. The airfield was also home to both the first all-Canadian and all-Polish squadrons, with No. 242 Squadron RAF for the Canadians and No. 306 Squadron RAF for the Polish.
As technologies evolved, the first night fighter Operational Training Unit (54 OTU) was formed at Church Fenton in 1940 and stayed until 1942. Some of the squadrons stationed there flew the famous de Havilland Mosquito.

| New version of J41 Tutorial & Checklist |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is version 2 of my tutorial/checklist which has been slightly modified and "fine-tuned" since the first version.
A tutorial/checklist for FS2Crew Voice Commander Edition for PMDG's J41. I put many hours into testing the "flow" of the checklist trying to make sure it will be 100% accurate at all stages of the flight and only include what you actually need to do and say. It also includes ATC and marshaller communication.
The checklist is in docx format and I used Wordpad so to make sure you get the right format and especially if you want to print it I suggest you also use Wordpad to open it. Credits also go to Dave Murden and Frank Cooper, the guys behind the checklist I used as a template for this one.

File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the Supermarine Spitfire Mk.IX by Real Air. It shows Spitfire IXc MA504, which was one of three Mk IX Spitfires that was converted for high altitude interceptions by No 10 and 41 squadrons SAAF, while based at St Jean and Idku, Egypt. The other two aircraft were MA792 and MH946. They were stripped of paint and machine guns, and all other equipment that was not deemed necessary to reach high flying Junkers JU-86 bombers that flew in excess of 40.000 ft. MA504 is reported to have reached 47.000 ft with wing commander Dereck 'Bill' Kain at the helm during a test flight. After a succesful interception of a Junkers, the Germans stopped the high altitude flights. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by RealAir.

| USAAF B-24D "Brewery Wagon" 376th BG 9th AAF |
|
File Description:
This B-24D-25-CO #41-24294 was assigned to the 512th Bomb Squadron, 376th Bomb Group, 9th AAF. This aircraft was assigned to 1Lt Bob Storz and he named the ship after their family brewery in Omaha, Nebraska. On the 1 Aug 1943 Ploesti mission, 1Lt John Palm's crew took it to that fiery target. Realizing the 376th lead ship and commander had made a wrong turn, Palm broke away and made directly for the refineries by himself. Severely battered by the ground defenses, Palm struggled toward the target. They never made it for Hauptmann Wilhelm Steinmann from 1/JG4 found the cripple and shot them down. Palm and seven other men emerged from the wreck to become POWs. They had the dubious distinction of being the first Liberator to fall to the defenses that day. Textures only, requires the original PAYWARE Alpha-Sim aircraft.

File Description:
Textures for Jens B. Kristensens Bristol Britannia 300 model (BRT_V10.ZIP). These textures depict Britannia 317 c/n 13426, built at Filton and registered G-APNB Nov. 1958. She was delivered 30.04.1959 to British and Commonwealth Shipping Ltd .and in May 1960 transferred to the parent company Hunting Clan Air Transport Ltd. This aircraft and sister ship G-APNA made several UK - Far East trooping charter flights. Fitted with 114 rearward-facing seats, the interior layout was described as "unusually luxurious" for a troop carrier! Six flights each month were made between London, Singapore and Hong Kong with fuel stops at Istanbul, Karachi and Bombay. Further trooping contracts followed to Cyprus, Kenya and Aden also other charter services were flown (See video clip on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2p9feJUh_iE). Photos with an without colored engine cowlings exist. Cheetline and titles were repeatedly altered too. 1959-60 G-APNB was leased to East African Airways Corp., EAAC. In July 1960 both Britannias came to British United Airways, BUA by merger. G-APNB were sold to Donaldson Intl. 1967 and leased out to Lloyd Intl. 1967 and 1969. She retired 1971 and was broken up at Luton.

File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the Aerplane Heaven Hawker Typhoon in the colors of Typhoon MN875 EL-B of No 181 Squadron, a regular mount of Flt.Lt. Robbert 'Bergy' van Zinnicg Bergmann while 181 was based in Helmond, 1945. Van Zinnicq Bergmann was a cavalry officer at the start of the war who managed to escape to England, arriving there in 1942. He joined the RAF, flying Hurricanes, Spitfires and finally Typhoons, first with 181 and later with 182 squadron. He stated: 'for me, the Typhoon was love at first sight, of all the aircraft I had flown, this looked by far the most agressive'. His agression as a pilot earned him the DFC and a promotion to Flight Commander with 182 squadron. After the war, he became aide-de-camp to the Dutch Queen, in the end serving three queens as Lord Chamberlain. He died in 2004.. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by Aeroplane Heaven.
