| BrightStar Swift |
|
File Description:
BrightStar Swift for FSX and FS2004...The SWIFT, for Swept Wing with Inboard Flap for Trim, was designed by a team at Stanford University led by Dr. Ilan Kroo, and developed through a collaborative effort with BrightStar Gliders as a high performance foot-launched sailplane, Although it is a fully-cantilevered rigid wing with aerodynamic controls and flaps, it weighs only about 100 lbs and is easily transported on the top of a car.
Almost doubling the performance of conventional hang gliders at the time it was introduced,it dominated several competitions and was subsequently allowed to compete only in a separate class. Many pilots have flown the SWIFT for 100-200 miles.
BrightStar originally manufactured SWIFTs in the U.S. but subsequently sold the licence to the Belgian company Aeriane
This model made with g-Max features full aircraft animations and a running pilot during landing and take-off,detailed VC cockpit and custom built gauges.

File Description:
From 1950 to 1967 the USAF set up and maintained bases in France, with the agreement of the French government, as part of its commitment to the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation. Laon AB was one of the ten main air bases which supported both attack and air defence capabilities. Many people do not appreciate the sheer extent of the USAF bases in France at this time and the reasons leading to the USAF departure in 1967. There is a link to a fine article on all this included.
This is the second in a series of USAFE bases in France, the first being LFJA Chaumont AB. This scenery and traffic represent Laon Air Base during the years 1955 to 1962. Custom Tower and Hangars by Dan French with Custom aircraft paints by Ken Lawson and DeltaDart. Traffic files and the aircraft and paints needed are provided for 1955 (including the Black Knights B-57 Demonstration Team), 1957, 1959 and 1962.

| Sudflug Douglas DC-9-30 |

File Description:
Südflug International was a German non-scheduled international passenger and cargo services operator, with a large inclusive-tour business. It was based in Stuttgart and was the first West German airline that was founded after the Second World War. It was founded on 24 November 1952 (Lufthansa was founded in 1953) by the former German fighter pilot and self-made entrepreneur Rul Bückle. In 1955, the airline's name was changed to Südflug – Süddeutsche Fluggesellschaft . Later on it was renamed to Südflug International. They were a succesful and growing airline. This disturbed Lufthansa, so they decided to take action. They made an aggressive takeover of the airline and they finally achieved their goal in 1968. Sudflug was no more. After the takeover, Lufthansa sent in a team to close down Sudflug.
The freeware SGA DC-9-30 is needed for this repaint. The textures are 32bit BMP. It was tested on FSX-SE, but should work on FSX/FS2004/P3Dv1-3.

| PMDG SIDSTARS Update for KHOU Houston William P Hobby |
|
File Description:
Cycle 0603 PMDG SIDSTAR file by Terry Yingling revised 3/22/2006 by Dan Downs for KHOU Houston William P Hobby. The controllers at Houston are creative. There is a BLUBELL STAR that goes over the Bluebell Ice Cream creamry, with fixes at COWZZ and SNDAY. Houston Texan football fans are aware thay they have a new COACH, and are hoping for more TCHDN and fewer FMBLE from their QTRBK named CARRR. Basketball fans cheer for the ROKIT team, and love it when they SSLAM DUUNK. All SID, STAR and ILS procedures edited as required to comply with current charts. SIDS have initial tracks off of runway and vectors command to eliminate discontinuities. Constraints added to BLUBL2 DAS6 HOAGI1 LISSE6 MHF1(change MEAs to STAR constraints), DAS6 HOAGI1 RIICE1 ROKIT7 STAR routes for KHOU added, adjusted transition routes between BILEE and RIICE to conform with STAR instructions. Added TEXXN3.12R and TEXXN3.04 to provide direct RNAV to IAFs for rwys 12R/4 per note on chart. Minor adjustments to ILS 4/12R/30L, including set hard constraint at GS intercept.

File Description:
Aeronautica Militare Fiat/Aeritalia G.91. I present a comprehensive AI traffic model package for this backbone of close air support in Europe during the Cold War years. The G.91 was built to suit a requirement for a NATO-compatible aircraft for close air support and light strike roles, able to operate from terrain as primitive as a flat grassy meadow (I found photos during research that support this). Going into production in 1961, this aircraft was manufactured for 19 years and served three European air forces for 35 years. The G.91 saw extensive combat service in Africa while operated by the Portuguese Air Force.
An original 7-LOD model brings this historic aircraft to the flightsim world. This package represents the G.91 in the service of the Italian Air Force and Frecce Tricolori Demonstration Team; with a total of 22 models and 74 repaints. Aircraft models covered are the G.91PAN, G.91R1, G.91R1A, G.91R1B, G.91T1, and G.91Y. Aircraft, textures, and flight dynamics by Michael Pearson.

It was constructed between 1979 and 1982 and hosts three squadrons equipped with F-16I, and two squadron operating AH-64.
Ramon AB (ICAO: LLRM) is here represented divided into three different airports.
LLRM - Main base hosting three F-16I squadrons, 1LRM - Hosts 190th Sqn on AH-64A and 2LRM - Hosts 113th Sqn on AH-64D

File Description:
Tel Nof Air Base was founded in July 1939 during the British Mandate as RAF Aqir and served as the main Royal Air Force station in Palestine. It is located near the "city of science" Rehovot in central Israel.
The base is the primary operational and training center for all IDF paratroop forces, as well as the home of Unit
699 (a.k.a. Maslul), the Israeli Defense Force Airborne Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR) unit under the Special
Air Force Command (KAHAM). The ORT Israel - the Administration for Research and Development and Training -
operates the Air Force Industry School at Tel Nof.
In addition to the two operational squadrons on F-15, Tel Nof is home to the MANAT evaluation unit which
conducts flight testing and evaluation of aircraft and weapons systems. This unit is designated as the 601 squadron
