File Description:
Five repaints for the Aerosoft PBY-5 Catalina in the colors of PBY-5's operated by Qantas on the 'Double Sunrise Service' between Western Australia and Ceylon between 1943 and 1945.
In 1943, Royal Australian Air Force personnel were seconded to operate Catalinas under the banner of Qantas. The plan called for flights between Perth, Western Australia, and RAF Base Koggala in southern Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). The flights were the longest non-stop air route of any airline, over 3,500 nautical miles (6,480 km) across the Indian Ocean. Navigating without the aid of radio, the crews relied solely on rudimentary navigation by compass and stars during the trip.
Only Catalinas had that kind of range, so five PBY-5 flying boats were converted to make them suitable for the trip.
They received camouflage paint, with a RAAF roundel on the fuselage, but also a civilian registration, since they were officialy operated by Qantas, and they were named after the stars they would be using for navigation:
Vega Star (G-AGFL/FP221 - tail code 1)
Altair Star (G-AGFM/FP244 - tail code 2)
Rigel Star (G-AGID/JX575 - tail code 3)
Antares Star (G-AGIE/JX577 - tail code 4)
Spica Star (G-AGKS/JX287 - tail code 5)
Taking between 27 and 33 hours, with departure timed so that the flight crossed Japanese occupied territory during darkness, the crews would observe the sunrise twice, which led to the service being known as "The Double Sunrise". The flight route flown was along the coast from Perth to Exmouth then setting out towards Cocos (Keeling) Island or Christmas Island (though neither was actually sighted during the flight) and onto Kogalla, a journey of approximately 3,580 nautical miles (6,630 km). After the success of the initial flights, it was decided to run a weekly service, with some services flying over Rottnest Island and then taking a direct line to Kogalla. As part of the Australia-England air route there was a surface component from Kogalla to Karachi that added considerable time to the service. This was later replaced by the Double Sunrise service, with Karachi to England flown by BOAC. Air crews would change in Kogalla taking the next plane in either direction minimising the time taken to complete the journey.
Though stripped of all non-essential equipment, including de-icing equipment and insulation, the average takeoff weight was 15,900 to 16,000 kg; this included 9,040 liters of fuel, which gave the Catalina a range of 3,600 nautical miles (6,700 km). The service made 271 crossings, delivered over 4,500 kg of mail and carried 860 passengers, including among them British MP Edith Summerskill and the journalist Keith Murdoch. 'The Secret Order of The Double Sunrise' was an illustrated certificate given to passengers aboard the flying boats of the Australia-England air link, to attest they had been airborne for more than 24 hours.
After the war the five modified Catalinas that had flown The Double Sunrise service were scuttled.

File Description:
Sorry folks but yet another update since I found some additional small issues I wanted to correct. I hope with this version I caught them all so this will be the FINAL version...at least for today ;-) If you have problem fitting the list on 2 A4 pages when printing it from WordPad make sure you have unchecked the option in WordPad to print page numbers.
A flow/checklist for flying PMDG's 737NGX with FS2Crew Voice Edition. Did this mainly for my own use meaning the flow/checklist is adjusted for how I do my flying and with the addons I use like Aerosoft AES for example. Please also be aware this is not the kind of flow/checklist that includes all things you need to perform during a normal flight but instead you are expected to already have a general knowledge of both the NGX and FS2Crew. However I thought others might be helped by this too both newbies to get you going with the "flow" using FS2Crew but also for the more experienced users as a simple to print out and use memory note. It's also easy for you to change whatever you like to suit your own needs better since I created it in common rtf format using the standard Wordpad Windows application. I deliberately made it as compressed as possible leaving out stuff like all the answers to the checklists etc so it would fit on a single A4 sheet being easy to print and maybe also laminate if you like. Hope you'll enjoy it!

| Trois-Rivieres CYRQ |

Images related to this file:
File Description:
Trois-Rivieres Airport (CYRQ) is located near the city of Trois-Rivieres, Quebec, Canada, midway between Quebec and Montreal on the north shore of the St-Lawrence river. It has a large maintenance and painting shop to service aircrafts the class of B737, A320 or equivalent size. This GA airport had its runway (05-23) extended to 9000' so that is can now receive and accomodate the B767.
This scenery developed in GMax, is an exact and realistic representation of the airport. It features 28 detailed buildings including its unique terminal, custom vehicles and much more. From the airport, you can see the flashing strobe lights of the 1200 feet tower located 8 miles NE of the airport; cleary visible night and day which is a very good landmark coming in to land. Another nice landmark is the nearby beautiful Laviolette bridge (if installed from the same author). Take your favorite GA aircraft there for a sightseeing tour or a fishing trip a short distance north of Trois-Rivieres, your executive jet for a business meeting or service your airline jet in the maintenance bays. It is a nice airport to see.

| Ultimate Airbus A32x V2 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Ultimate Airbus A32x V2 is an Advancement of the previous Version "Ultimate Airbus V1" and generally follows the same Idea: To ease flying the WILCO Airbus Volume 1 (models A318, A319, A320 and A321). This Package therefore introduces 6 smaller Sub-Panels (p.e. Engine Starter, ECAM Control, Flaps Lever, Radio etc. including Clickspots to handle those Panels) instead of allways using the Pedestal or Overhead Panel covering the complete View. It also includes a "Co-Pilot" functionality to automate certain Parts of Flight Procedures (Lights, Gear, Spoliers, Flaps etc.), Buttons for Panel Lights and Doors as well as new Views.
A detailed Tutorial Flight considering the a. m. added functionality - based on Airbus Original Procedure- and Checklist but modified to fit with the functionality available in WILCO's Airbus Volume 1 - is also Part of this Package. It is especially written for Beginners because there is no such detailed Tutorial currently available.
This zip-file contains the FSX version only which is slightly different from the FS9 version. More detailed information on this package as well as on installation you will find in the "Readme_ExtVers_FSX.pdf" file.
