| Instructions for building a replacement USB-DB15 Dongle for MS Sidewinder Joysticks |
|
File Description: My neighbor recently gave me a Microsoft SideWinder Precison Pro Joystick. Unfortuately, they had lost the DB15 to USB dongle (photo of dongle on the left)that connected the joystick to the USB port. This zip file contains a word document (.doc) which describes how you can build an equivalent dongle for just a few dollars. A parts list, photos of the completed assembly and a wiring diagram are included. Some elementary skill with a soldering iron is required. Please note that this replacement will not convert your old joystick into a digital model. It only works with MS Part No X03-57540 and equivalent. However the instructions do list a source for an encoder which proports to do exactly that.

| McDonnell DouglasMD-83 (Default - Flyable) Update |
|
File Description:
This update was designed for FS users who downloaded the "Flyable default MD-83", available at Simviation and AVSim (filename: md83_flyable.zip).
A small bug was noticed when the user loads the MD-83 in FS2004 and no checklists are available on the Electronic Kneeboard when striking the F10 key. It happened because the checklists provided in that ZIP file were in HTML extension, and the FS2004 Electronic Kneeboard can only handle files with HTM extension.
So, now these are updated checklists, with some more information added in the "Reference Data" page, and both files are now in HTM extension.
The FS2002 MD-83 checklists don't need update and are working fine.
This is an update only. You need the "md83_flyable.zip" file to use this update.

| YAS_MkVc (ZP-X) |
|
File Description:
The YAS_MkVc(ZP-X).zip model is based on a Spitfire MkVc (trop),serial BS219, coded ZP-X to represent the aircraft flown by F-O "Butch" Hamilton, "Jiminy Cricket", # 457 Australian Sqd, August 1943, Darwin, Australia.
The MkVc was one of the first Spitfire capable of carrying bombs, and two 250Lb and one 500Lb bombs are therfore included in the loadout.
With the MkVc, the universal 'C' wing allowed armament to be increased to 350 rounds/ machine gun and 120 rounds/ cannon.
This visual model demonstrates the transition between the original MkII airframe and later MkIX's; new windscreen with internal armour, "blown" bubble canopy, universal 'C' wing with additional cannon, new style voltage regulator, and round rear-view mirror.

| A63 Intruder va-34 |
|
File Description:
This Grumman A6E Invader is in the squadron markings of the U.S. Navy's VA-34 Blue Blasters.
In September 1970 VA-34 put to sea for an Operational Readiness Inspection (ORI) aboard USS JOHN F. KENNEDY (CV 67) as part of Carrier Air Wing ONE (CVW 1). Events in the Middle East necessitated an unexpected sortie of CV 67 and her Air Wing to the Mediterranean in the summer of 1970. The squadron returned home in March 1971 from this unscheduled deployment, only one year old, but already in possession of the Meritorious Unit Commendation. In August 1971, VA-34 received the Battle "E" award as the Atlantic Fleet's top A-6 squadron. Textures only. Rick Sasala's a-6e2k2.zip is required.
