| Nicholson Peninsula CWNP & Liverpool Bay CWLB DEW sites in Northwest Territories, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
These are DEW line sites in northern mainland Canada, to the east of Tuktoyaktuk.
Nicholson Peninsula is 100 miles east of Tuktoyaktuk and was not included in FS9. The peninsula is sometimes more like an island than a peninsula as it is barely connected to the mainland and at times is not connected at all (see the current Gogle Earth!). At the northern end there is another long and narrow gravel bar that is formed by the tide and currents and the gravel runway is on the top of this. It is now officially closed, but is still usable. The annual refuelling and maintenance to the NSW station up on the hills is carried out from a barge that lands tanker trucks onto the shore for the drive up the existing gravel roads that have been there since the early DEW station was established.
Liverpool Bay is 50 miles east of Tuktoyaktuk, up on higher land at around 300 feet ASL. The NWS (there was no previous DEW station at this site) is serviced by helicopter from Tuktoyaktuk or from a barge a mile away on the beach. There is a gravel landing pad on the north side of the station. To answer your question, the three little houses on stilts are actually fuel tanks for the generators, shaped to shed snow.

File Description:
RAF Lindholme is located 3.9 miles (6.3 km) south of Thorne and 6.9 miles (11.1 km) north east of Doncaster and was initially called RAF Hatfield Woodhouse and started life as an
expansion scheme aerodrome built on the wide expanse of Hatfield moors, some five miles east of Doncaster. The site, to the east of the A614 Thorne to Bawtry road, was a mile
south of the small village of Hatfield Woodhouse, the name first selected for the new station. Work began in the spring of 1938 taking in approximately 250 acres (1.0 km2) of
pasture for the airfield itself and a further 150 for the camp and support facilities.

| BAe AVRO RJ / 146 Runway Performance Spreadsheet |
|
File Description:
This new version of the spreadsheet has been designed to allow users to simulate the runway requirements of the British Aerospace 146 / Avro RJ range of aircraft. It will now automatically apply the correct runway lengths and airfield elevations once the appropriate airfield ICAO designation is used. Tested with the Quality Wings aircraft it allows users to simulate the type of flight planning procedures used by pilots and provides a realistic indication of the types of limitations imposed by runway length and conditions including weather, altitude and surface conditions. Its purpose is to make the flight planning and operation of the aircraft more realistic, satisfying and professional. Users will need a suitable spreadsheet program in order to open the file.

| Cross-Atlantic Flights |
|
File Description:
This document is an attempt to brief, (with as simple words as possible but with a touch of professionalism also), all FlightSimmers who are interested on Atlantic Crossing procedures. Weather, FlightPlans, Fuel Requirements, RVSM, MNPS, OTS, NAT Tracks, NARs, Re-release Procedure and almost anything related to Cross Atlantic Flights is discussed. An example of a Real-life Olympic Airways flight from KJFK to LGAV helps the reader understand the procedures. Also, useful links and voice samples of real HF Communications are included in this pdf tutorial to get the feeling of "As Real As it Gets". Written by real life pilots, Michikian Krikor (Olympic Airways A340-300 pilot and Vatsim Member) and Vangelis Hassiotis (Private Pilot and Vatsim Europe Instructor).

| Gloster Javelin - Royal Navy - Double Pack |
|
File Description:
The world's first twin-engine delta-wing jet fighter, the Gloster Javelin was the RAF's only delta-wing jet fighter, and was the RAF's first missile-armed interceptor. Designed to shoot down incoming Soviet nuclear bombers at high-altitude in any weather, day or night. This is a purely fictional repaint pack, as the Royal Navy has never equipped their Fleet Air Arm with the Javelin. This pack contains two repaints, one with Falklands-era blue-with-white-belly paint, and the other has a more modern low visibility scheme. The registration number is borrowed from a Royal Navy Harrier. Textures only! You MUST have Mike Stones' Gloster Javelin model, available from his homepage at http://www.pmstone.com/ to use this file!
