| 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.

| New Elevation data GeoTiles.tag for FU3 Seattle Region |
|
File Description:
The test elevation meshes for Switzerland and UK Region using the data from
NASA SRTM_V2 program ( 3 arc second resolution, about 90m grid ) was so successful that I have tried to do a new elevation file for the Seattle Region using the 1 arc second elevation from the same source ( US area only ) 30m grid resolution. Each elevation point ( 64m grid in FU3 ) is now converted from the UTM coordinate to the exact Lat/Long WGS84 coordinate and for this point the elevation data are picked up and stored.
The Geotiles.tag file residing in the /region/seattle/geos/ folder contains this data.
To benefit from this new elevation experience FIRST RENAME YOUR ORIGINAL GEOTILES.DAT FILE INTO XGEOTILES.DAT then copy the geotiles.tag from this zip into the geos folder of the Seattle region. Start FU3 and enjoy the new perfect fitted landscape. Best way is to start directly from the air and not from an airport then all airport are no more flat, have hills and holes. Models and runways are floating over the ground or are into the ground.

| Eurocopter EC-505 Tiger - French Army |
|
File Description:
TIGER HAP: The Tiger HAP/HCP (Helicoptere d'Appui Protection / Helicopter for Close Protection) is a medium-weight air-to-air combat and fire support helicopter built for the French Army. The Tiger HAP is an air-to-air combat and fire support medium-weight (6 tonnes) helicopter fitted with 2 MTR 390 engines. It is daytime and night combat capable and is operable in NBC environments. Three basic parameters were taken into account right from the start of the development phase: low (visual, radar and infrared) detectability, which provides excellent survivability on the battlefield, maximum efficiency of the weapons and the associated fire control systems without heavier workload for the crew, and an optimized logistic concept offering minimum possession costs. The Tiger HAP is fitted with a 30-mm gun turret; 68-mm submunition rokets, and air-to-air Mistral missiles. It also features a firing sight with 3 sensors: infrared, TV camera and direct optical channel. The complete avionics suite includes multi-purpose color displays and radar/laser warning receivers.Model, textures by www.afs-design.de - Author: A.Meyer.

| Qantas / JetConnect NC Boeing 737-476 (JK-JTR) |
|
File Description:
If you like flying in New Zealand but in the Qantas livery, that means flying a QANTAS/Jetconnect B737-300 or 400. QANTAS Jetconnect is based in Auckland, New Zealand (NZAA) and is a subsidiary of Qantas. I love flying in and out of Queenstown, New Zealand (NZQN), so that was the inspiration for this repaint. Besides, there are no repaints of the Qantas Jetconnect B737-400's in the new Qantas livery.
Qantas Jetconnect operates a fleet exclusively comprised of Boeing 737's. As of Jan 2009, they operate 5 376 models and 3 476 models for a total fleet of 8 aircraft. This 476 model, bearing registration JK-JTR, is the first in the fleet to be repainted in the new Qantas livery with a restyled kangaroo, new font for the QANTAS name, and the missing gold band in front of the red on the aft section of the fuselage.
Most repainted textures in this package are 32-bit with no mipmaps. This is a textures only package; you must own the 50North Boeing 737-400.

| Arik Air Airbus A340-542 (CS-TFW) |
|
File Description:
I am very proud to present this, the latest (and very much anticipated) aircraft to join the Arik Air fleet, an Airbus A340-542, registration CS-TFW named "Our Lady of Perpetual Help" repainted in great detail in the outstanding Overland/Simmer Sky model. This aircraft was delivered on December 1st, 2008 to Arik Air and will be flown under their logo by HiFly (a charter airline based in Lisbon, Portugal). This is the first of 3 A345's for Arik Air which will be used on international long-haul routes to London, New York and Houston.
As you already may know if you have downloaded my other Arik Air repaints, Arik Air is a wholly owned Nigerian airline incorporated in 2004 with a commitment to deliver new standards of aviation quality in Nigeria. This aircraft represents a big step in that direction. Arik Air is based in Lagos, Nigeria. All repainted textures in this package are 32-bit with no mipmaps. This is a textures only package; you must own the Overland/Simmer's Sky Airbus A340-500.

| Flight Tested Mods for FSX PA28 to get Realistic Warriors |
|
File Description:
This mod is aimed to the beautiful Australian Simulation FSX PA28 Warrior Version 2, and corrects its few (but annoying) defects.
I'm a private pilot lucky enough to have enjoyed a couple hundreds hours on PA28s and, in my opinion, the result is a beautiful, realistic, FLIGHT TESTED FSX aircraft!
---
FIXES:
1 - LONGITUDINAL AXIS STABILITY FIXES:
a) Turns are now stable: when you put the plane in a turn and center ailerons, the plane will keep its bank angle until new aileron movements. No more sudden and unrealistic "auto-leveling"!
b) Fuel tanks unbalances effects are cut down, since they are irrelevant in real life.
2 - AILERON TRIM removed since it's not present in real airplane - SORRY ;-)
3 - FUEL PUMP NOISE replacement for the excessive default FSX sound.
----
SOFTWARE FULLY SUPPORTED:
Australian Simulation FSX PA28-161 Warrior Version 2.
OTHER PA28 WARRIOR SOFTWARE:
NOT TESTED but you can try without risk if you follow the installation procedure, WITHOUT REPLACING YOUR CFG FILES - This will offer you a good flight model, although not fully fixed.

File Description:
Douglas C47-B-DK c/n 33257. Purchased from Hunting Aviation in 1953 where it was registered as G-ANAS. Transfered to Wenela Rhodesia as VP-YSM then A2-ZEM. Sold to African Air carriers as ZS-KIV. It is probably the only DC-3 in the world to have suffered the most accidents and be rebuilt, it had survived no less than three landing accidents, one collision with a tree and two serious fires. One of the fires virtually destroyed the whole cockpit! The cockpit section from the original ZS-DCA, which had been abandoned at Lourenco Marques (Maputo) in 1975, was stitched on to this aircraft after one accident in the early 1990's. It finally crashed on landing in 2005 in the DRC at Kilembwe and remains there, untouched, as it is now trapped in a mine field. It was on a routine flight for Wimbidira Airways and was registered as 9Q-CWI. Prior installation of Manfred Jahn's outstanding FS2004 Douglas C-47 Base Pack (c-47_basepack_fs9.zip) is required. Repaint by Andre Reimers.

| VYMM Mawlamyine Intl Airport V2.0 with Traffic-Pack 2 |
|
File Description:
Mawlamyine International Airport in Burma, Myanmar, include Traffic-Pack 2. Traffic-Pack 1 comes with vyyy4tp1.zip. Traffic-Pack 3 comes soon too. This scenery was produced based of suppositions, stories and voices. It is therefore pure speculation. Whether this airport is ever increased, the God know. If the planned Asean-Highway leads at it past, this airport should gain importance very quickly. Version 2.0 with new docks, jetways, already extended runway, taxiways and new taxisigns. First of all we corrected the airport location to the real one. With Myanmar Air Force area, Helipads and even more parkings for civilian airplanes. You need mai321x.zip, mai738x.zip and mai744x.zip to use with this. Many Thanks go to Harald Nehring and Frank Weiss,
Robert Versluys, Mike Stone and the teams of HOUSE-RP in Burma, FSX Planner, SceneGenX, SBuilder X, Open Ports Scanner, AFXBgDownloader, FSUIPC, Google Earth and AI Flight Planner. This scenery is pure fiction and for FSX only, for FS2004 please download newVYMMfs9.zip and newVYMMup.zip. By HOUSE-RP, Switzerland and Burma

File Description:
I am very proud to present this detailed repaint of the Project Opensky A330-223, registration F-OFDF, of Air Caraibes. This is the only remaining A332 in the Air Caraibes fleet. The remainder of Air Caraibes' A330 fleet are all A333s (3 of them). This airframe was originally delivered to SwissAir in 1999 and registered as HB-IQD. Air Caraibes took delivery of it in 2004 and has been flying it ever since under its current registration. This repaint has many custom textures. All windows are hand-painted, 3D with window shades. The night windows textures and other night textures are custom as well. Engine textures, engine fans, fuselage shading and tail textures are all custom. The wheels and tires are also custom and hand drawn. The main gear wheels are as real as I could get them.
All repainted textures in this package are 32-bit with no mipmaps for best clarity and quality. This is a complete installation package; version 2004.7.1 of the Project Opensky A330-200 V2 model is included.
