File Description:
In 1946 and 1947 the newly established Norwegian airline Braathens South American & Far East Airtransport A.S. purchased for its medium- and long haul operations on charter basis four ex-USAAF Douglas C-54A Skymasters. Three of them had been converted to DC-4 standard by Texas Maintenance Company (Temco) at Fort Worth, Texas, and featured on the starboard side an enlarged emergency exit. The fourth C-54A was purchased from KLM. Around 1950 the Norwegian authorities concluded that Braathens' operations got increasingly a structural character, read: scheduled, operations and as such became a threat for Scandinavian Airlines System (SAS) which was a conglomerate of "state" airlines of Denmark, Norway and Sweden. SAS received all concessions for the international scheduled routes, which meant the end of the use of the Temco converted C-54A's. These are textures only. You will need Jens B. Kristensen's FSX Douglas DC-4 & C-54 (DC4_V30X.ZIP). Repaint by Maarten Brouwer.

| PACD - Cold Bay - Aleutian Islands, Alaska, USA |

Images related to this file:
File Description:
Cold Bay is in the eastern third of the Aleutian chain of islands in Alaska, around 175 miles east of Dutch Harbor. The small town has a population of just over 100 and is in existance solely because of the airport with its long runways, one just over 6,000 feet and the other over 10,000 feet and with an ILS. Goods are flown here for local redistribution. The airport was originally built to this size for use in WW2 and there are still quonset huts from this time visible in the area, though the majority of the rough-and-ready housing has now been cleared away. There are scheduled flights by Grant Aviation to neighbouring local airfields and flights to and from Anchorage by Peninsula Air (included in the AI posted with Adak) and Grant Aviation have space attached to their hangar that serves as a terminal. The Coastguard also make use of Cold Bay.

| Boeing B-17G (42-102550) |

File Description:
B-17G-55-BO 42-102550 of the 452nd BG. 42-102550 crashed on November 29, 1944, at Charlotte, North Carolina. Icy conditions caused the new B-17 to skid off the end of the runway and come to rest on the Southern Railway tracks as train was approaching. Crew No. 590 of Squadron "S" of the 326th base Unit training pout of MacDill. Irony is they just won "Crew of the Month" so they were allowed to fly anywhere they wanted to, so for their reward, they flew to Charlotte N.C. No injuries, the crew landed long and overran the end of the runway. A great story with a local woman who put a broom in a fire so it could be used to flag down an oncoming train! The plane had to be destroyed to get it off the tracks and the military split up the crew as punishment.

| RAF Ludford Magna |
|
File Description:
RAF Ludford Magna was a Royal Air Force airfield operated by Bomber Command during the Second World War and the Cold War. The station lay on agricultural farmland immediately south of the village of Ludford, Lincolnshire and was sited 21.4miles (34.4 km) north east of the county town of Lincoln, Lincolnshire, England. The remains of the station can be seen from the B1225 Caistor High Street, and the long distance footpath the Viking Way passes right next to the eastern perimeter track.
It was the highest bomber airfield in England at 428 feet (130 m) above sea level, and cost £803,000 to build.
All credit must go to the following authors without whose work I could not have made this scenery; all credit for the models contained in it is theirs I merely placed it. If you don't have any of the third party addons you will only see the runway and peri track: Ted Andrews - Ian Pearson - Mike Hudson

File Description:
A custom made Marble Hall Airfield (FAMI), Limpopo, South Africa with photoreal textures and photoreal ground.
The small airfield has been recreated with custom true to life models and photoreal textures. Some of the buildings on the approach to rwy 22 (and even the road-signs) have been modelled with custom true to life models with photoreal textures and the marble works next to the airfield is also included with custom models and custom textures. The airfield is mostly used by cropdusters and as an added bonus, two static cropdusters are included with the kind permission of their respective developers (a Piper PA-25 Pawnee by Andy Strukowsi and a Turbo Thrush by Marcel du Plessis). Both planes are flyable aircraft (see download details in Readme file) which were converted to static aircraft models by myself.
The paved runway is aligned 04/22 and 1 000m long and sits at an elevation of 3 000ft.

| Qatar Airways 1998 AI Package |
|
File Description:
Qatar Airways was only 4 years old in 1998, however, the fleet was already quite different and the livery had changed into the grey colors. The 2 747-200s were gone, having been leased out to Saudia for Hadji flights and never returning, and A300-600Rs had replaced the A310s (A310s would later rejoin for VIP and Freight ops). At the time, London and Munich were the only destinations in Europe and Asia was not served beyond India. Though the fleet was small in 1998, the airline would quickly grow into a large a reputable carrier which now spans the globe and even operates A380s despite the humble beginnings not so long ago! Included are fleet repaints for the AIA 727-200 and TFS A300-600R PW by Raphael Rodrigues. Flightplans by Chasen Richardson. Part of the 1998 Flight Simulator Project.

Wabush is a small town close to Labrador City, 200 miles north of the Gulf of St Lawrence coast and close to the border with Quebec. The area is known for it's iron mining activity which started in the 1960's. The airport that serves the area is located close to Wabush and there is also a float base on the lake that abutts Labrador. This version is from around 2014. The single runway is aligned 01-19 and is 6,000 feet long, with PAPI on 19 and ILS on 01. Flights by Pascan Aviation, Air Inuit, and Provincial Airlines are included in the AI provided, along with GA flights.

| Torrejon Air Force Base (LETO), 1957-62 |
|
File Description:
Torrejón Air Base was originally the home of the Spanish National Institute of Aeronautics, but as a result of an agreement between Franco and the Unites States in 1953 an air base was created there with a large military apron and a runway 13,400 feet long - the longest in Europe for some decades. Officially opened in June 1957, both US bombers and fighters were based there, most significantly the B-47 Stratojet, which had too short a range to be operated only from the U.S. In July of 1958 the 497th Fighter Interceptor Squadron became the first permanently stationed Air Defence Group operating F-86L Sabres and from April 1960 the F-102 Delta Dagger. Over the years many different units and therefore many different aircraft types did TDY (Temporary Duty Assignments - usually 30-90 days) at Torrejon. Units of the Spanish Air Force were also present and are represented in this scenery package.
