| Himalayas LOD9 Base Mesh, Volume 1 - Southeastern Ranges |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Detailed terrain mesh of the Southeastern Himalayan Ranges, N26-32 E90-98. The files in this package are based on Shuttle Radar (SRTM) Version 2 data but with many of the void areas, especially the most significant sections, filled with elevation data generated from topographic maps by Jonathan de Ferranti. While Jonathan's work is unrelated to flight simulation he kindly gave me permission to compile his data for use in FS. The result is a wonderful improvement in detail and accuracy over any existing mesh file, freeware or commercial, based on SRTM or DTED data alone.
Due to the large area of the Himalayas I've compiled the source data as two separate series: the "Himalayan Peaks" series covers prominent mountains and ranges in higher detail and locally overrides any existing LOD9 terrain mesh. In addition, a LOD9 "base mesh" series, with LOD8 and LOD7 "buffer" mesh files, covering the entire Himalayas, is meant for those who do not yet have an add-on terrain mesh of these beautiful mountains.

| Little Port Walter for Holger Sandmann's Tongass Fjords scenery |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a second fish farm at the southern end of Baranof Island and Chatham Strait in southern Alaska. Big Port Walter is named on the chart of the area, and there is a section of the chart included here. Little Port Walter is a much smaller offshoot bay, sheltered from the weather and ideal for a fish farm. This scenery is designed specifically for use in the Tongass Fjord scenery. I may have incorrectly identified Tongass Fjords as being required for Hawk Logging when Glacier Bay is needed. Ah well, it is one or the other of them. The fish farm (or hatchery, the description varies) has an identifying code so it will show up on a gps as PWL. There is no interaction with atc as there are no designated water runways, so PWL on the gps just acts as a waypoint. There will be further posts for use with Tongass Fjords, Misty Fjords, and Glacier Bay, and I still find these scenery areas by Holger and his crew the most satisfying in FS9.

| 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.

| Ocean Stations for Multiplayer Use |
|
File Description:
I've produced this scenery to provide all of the Ocean Stations I know about in the 1950's and 1960's. There is a Coast Guard ship on station (painted in the colors of the USA), an NDB to give you a bearing to the ship, a way to contact the ship using voice (you can get your position relative to the ship this way), and a DME for distances further than the limited 30 NM FS ATC gives you (normal communications would reach about 100 NM). You can also get a weather report, and if you are a seaplane you can be cleared to land. If you are a landplane, I guess this would constitute permission to ditch...
I want to give a big thank you to Mitsuya Hamaguchi (hama) for graciously supplying the ship used in this scenery.
This version uses scenery ships, which will not disappear in multiplayer. There is only a US ship, however. For the AI ship version (with ships of several countries) download OceanStations.zip instead.

| Boundary Bay Airport, British Columbia (CZBB) |
|
File Description:
The airport was based on a Google Earth photo, and the buildings are not 100% accurate, but are reasonably accurately placed and should give a good feel for the airport.
The airport was based on a Google Earth photo, and the buildings are not 100% accurate, but are reasonably acurately placed and should give a good feel for the airport. Historically this his represents a period at the airport in its GA heyday before Heli One and the new terminal building went up cica 2007-2009, from when McLeod Aviation was still in the big hanger and there were plenty of small flying Schools about, to when the new Alpha Aviation building went up.
There is a fuel truck, a single small gate area for commercial flights (even though there is none in reality) and various static items around the field, including the old white dome hangars down the East end of the field (where I used to keep my plane. Watch out for a surprise if you are taxiing out to 25 or 30!
Enjoy.

| Flying For Furs.....A Danger in the Mountain Gorges, Ravines, and Canyons of The Canadian West... |
|
File Description:
Joshua Buckhorn is getting ready for his trip into the Canadian Wester Fur Route. As a trader of furs and FBO owner things up here in North Washington
are hard in this year of 1949. Just 5 years ago he was flying a huge B-17 over Germany. Now a new life has brought him into the dangers on Bush Flying.
As always before these flights, new oil and spark plugs must be placed in the plane, tyres must be just right and the fuel tanks got to be full to the top.
It is 5:45 AM and a big breakfast is a must before the flight, eggs, grits, potatoes, ham, bacon and NO beans since the gas they produce will disrupt the fligh. And don“t forget the "P" Bottle.----I hope you know how to balance a plane with all those furs and hides you will acquire in this trip full of danger in approaches and take offs from, indeed, very dangerous fields. ( Bonus you get 4 new airports for future flights if the business pays off)..:)
