| GSPIN Rotating Space Station |
|
File Description:
The station consists of a habitat (9 ton) at the end of a 50 m wire, and a centre service module (6 ton) with a docking port, solar panels and a heat radiator. These two elements are connected by an inflated tunnel.
The assembly was launched on a Delta 4 Heavy. The burnt-out upper stage is the counter weight (6 ton) at the end of 75 m long wires.
The rotational speed is 2.5 rpm, resulting in a artificial gravity of 3.4 m/s², about 1/3 of earth gravity. This rotation is well within the 'convenience limit' of about 3 rpm. The effects of preventing bone degradation of the astronauts on long space travels shall be studied aboard this station.
A spacecraft with a centre-line docking port (like the Delta Glider or the CEV) is required for docking.

| FSX Wing Leveler/ForceFeedback Utility Version 3.1.0 |
|
File Description:
This Utility combines both a Wing Leveler and a ForceFeedback Utility for FSX/FS2004/FS2002. The Wing Leveler will remove or restore Flight Simulator's automatic Wing Leveler function. For those of you who like to fly using the Autopilot solely to maintain a constant altitude I've developed this little utility to modify Flight Simulator Aircraft.cfg file(s) to remove the Wing Leveller function. The Aircraft.cfg file is modified to add information that will disable the default Bank (wings level) and the default Pitch (Aircraft attitude, nose up, nose down or level).
If you're a Force Feedback Joystick user and the joystick shakes violently on take off it is because the Force Feedback code is missing from the Aircraft.cfg file. The Utility will add or remove the FF code for you. Requires the VB6 Runtime files.

| Cessna 402B |
|
File Description:
FS2004 Aircraft - The Cessna 401 and 402 are series of 6 to 10 place light twin piston engine aircraft. This line was manufactured by Cessna from 1966 to 1985 under the name Utiliner and Businessliner. The Cessna 401s, 402s, 402As and some 402Bs built from 1967 to 1971 had four small oval windows, which gave the aircraft a similar appearance as the pressurized Cessna 340. Starting half-way through the production of the Cessna 402B the window configuration was changed to the more distinctive five rectangular windows. Cessna 402s are widely used as airliners on short and thin routes from smaller communities, often with destinations of larger hubs to connect with the major airlines. The Cessna 402 is currently flown by Cape Air, among other operators. See the readme for info on FSX usage. Created with FSDS2.10 by John B. Loney, Jr.

| Grumman Albatross version 2.1 FDE Landing Lights |
|
File Description:
Grumman HU-16 Albatross 2.1
Greg Pepper, Michael Verlin
revised FDE with landing lights
This package contains revised aircraft.cfg and air files.
I've modified the contact points for the hull and nose gear and retractable landing lights
The contact points for the landing lights were omitted in previous uploads.
The lights are tied to the water rudder (Shift+W). It has been 5 years since version 2.0 was released.
Fortunately, I kept copies of my correspondence with Greg Pepper, which had the information for the missing contact points. They are now included.
My apologies for the error. This should finish matters for version 2.1
Instructions
unzip this file into the Grumman Albatross G64 section of your FS9 Aircraft folder.
overwrite the existing aircraft.cfg and HU16.air files with the files in this package.

| YLEA Leeman, Western Australia (Snag Island) airstrip and town |
|
File Description:
YLEA Leeman - formerley Snag Island is a tiny fishing village which is ideal for fishermen and holiday makers eager to get away from the more commercialised centres. Calling itself the 'Home of Western Australia's Dhufish' the settlement boasts huge and dramatic white sand dunes, good beach and offshore fishing, safe beaches for surfing, swimming and sailboarding, and superb displays of wildflowers in the spring. Leeman is home to a crayfish (lobster) fishing fleet which plies the fishing grounds off the coast in the season. The industry developed in the 1950s and has since become one of the most important on the Central West coast. It is also a dormitory suburb for the nearby sand mining town of Eneabba.

File Description:
GMMX - Menara Intl Airport - Marrakech, Morocco, Phase 1. Marrakech-Menara Airport is an airport serving Marrakech, the capital city of the Marrakech-Tensift-El Haouz region in Morocco. It is an international facility that receives several European flights as well as flights from Casablanca and some of the Arab world nations.
Construction is going on to enlarge the airport. Impressions of what the new situation will be like are enclosed. This reworked AFCAD shows the construction area, adds taxiways P1 and P2, updates the airports lay-out as per today's situation, enhances the surrounding area and improves the overall signage, pavement and parking facilities. Once the new terminal is open, the AFCAD will be updated.
Using ADEx 1.51, aeronautical maps and Google Earth all these changes have been built into the default FSX airport.

| Ford Project - Stag Lane Aerodrome - home of de Havilland's first factory |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Ford-de-Havilland is a scenery pack created by the Ford
Project Team that contains a historical rendition of
the Stag Lane Aerodrome.
Stag Lane Aerodrome was the home of the first de Havilland Aircraft
Manufacturer's factories located at Stag Lane, Edgware, London, UK.
Stag Lane became the main base of The de Havilland Aircraft Company Limited
in 1920. Former wartime aircraft were refurbished in the early years, and
the company designed and built large numbers of aircraft at Stag Lane in
the 1920s and early 1930s.
Created by the Ford Project Team to support their recently
released large suite of liveries for the Milton Shupe
DH80 aircraft. This package is just one of nearly 30 other
scenery packs available for FREE at the Ford Tri-Motor site -

File Description:
N102AP, Virgin Islands Int'l Airways for LES DC3
This is a livery-paint for the Leading Edge Simulations Douglas DC3/C47, painted by Leen "Flybike" de Jager
This paint depicts (more or less) the DC3, N102AP in the Virgin Islands International Airways livery.
The original model had wing-registration, due to the limitations of the texture-mapping of this model, this could not be reproduced. ( grrrrrrrrr..........!!)
This time I removed the (tiny) pilots from the cockpit.*
How to install:
Just unzip N102AP.zip in a temp folder, and start reading the Virgin Islands Readme First.PDF carefully.
*IF you want the pilots back in the cockpit simply remove file Pilot.png from the N102AP Virgin Islands/objects-folder.
Yes, removing a file to get something back, it sounds weird, but I am not kidding.
Enjoy

| P-51D Mustang 'Live Bait' |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
A repaint only for the payware Warbirdsim product 'Mustang Tales'. This repaint depicts the restored P-51D-25-NA 44-73343, "Live Bait", which completed a ground-up restoration by Midwest Aero Restorations in 2010. The aircraft spent most of the 1960's as a Reno air racer, with the names "Seattle Miss", "Esther's Mink", "Traveler", and "Miss Salmon River". Following a crash landing at the 1971 races, the aircraft would pass through a few owners until restoration finally began on the aircraft in 2005. The aircraft first flew again in July 2010, and took home the Reserve Grand Champion WWII award at the 2010 EAA Airventure Oshkosh air show. The markings are that of Captain Clayton Kelly Gross, 355th FS, 354th FG, 9th Air Force. Kelly Gross was reunited with this, 'his' airplane, at Oshkosh 2010.
