File Description:
This is a repaint for the freeware Warwick "Wozza" Carter AT-6G Texan. This repaint depicts the restored AT-6D Ser. 49-3305, N651SH, registered to Flying Texans and Mustangs Unlimited, LLC. This aircraft was originaly built during WWII for the USAAF, but was completely rebuilt by North American in 1949 for the newly formed USAF. In 1962, the aircraft was once again overhauled and exported to Spain, where it served until the early 1980's. Today this aircraft is operated by an organization called Texan Flight, based in Houston, Texas, which provides flight experiences to paying customers. The aircraft remains painted in the markings it wore while serving as part of the Spanish AF, keeping this part of its heritage intact. The aircraft has been nicknamed "Dulcinea" by its owners, a character from the tale of Don Quixote. This repaint includes all new exterior textures (including specular and bump maps), new engine and modified wheel well textures, and new and modified cockpit textures throughout. This repaint requires the files t6texmod.zip and fsds_t-6update.zip to be installed first.

| PAC Airtrainer CT4 |
|
File Description:
Re-upload. PAC Airtrainer CT4
Primary trainer aircraft. PAC (Pacific Aerospace Corporation) is a New Zealand company constructing these military trainers based on the Australian Victa Aircruiser private aircraft. The CT4 is used by New Zealand, Australian and Thailand air forces.
While it has been made for AI purposes it is actually a pleasant aircraft to fly so if you install a panel (or link to one) you should gain some flying pleasure from it.
This has been modelled with Gmax v1.2 using a mininum number of polygons (1820 for the main model), and has animated ailerons, flaps, elevators and rudder. It has 4 LOD models and a single texture set and is extremely frame rate friendly. You can also substitute your own photo for the pilot.
It is designed specifically to enhance the AI aircraft population and to use with the marvellous GA-Traffic program by Markus Brunner .
Two textures (Royal New Zealand Air Force Red Checkers, and Thai Air Force) and a paintkit are included.

| Microlights- Vol.2 |
|
File Description:
Three more low-polygon count models for AI use in F2004, all tail-draggers, one based on the AirBike, with two seats, the second based on the Weedhopper, the third based on the Affordaplane. I've only included one or two texture sets for each aircraft, but I have included basic repaint templates for the Airbike and the Weedhopper, so you can generate a multitude of brightly-coloured aircraft to your own taste in a few minutes.
Each model includes three LOD models and a reduced-detail shadow model, for improved visual performance, and to this end I have also included updated models for my previous "Microlights for AI" upload (required for the textures if you want these aircraft). Although the model file size will be bigger, because FS only loads the LOD model it requires for the given range of the aircraft, once the aircraft is more than a few hundred feet away from the viewpoint, it will affect the frame-rate less than the originals.
Please see the enclosed text file for further details.

File Description:
Naval Air Station Sigonella, "The Hub of the Med", is a U.S. Navy installation at NATO Base Sigonella and an Italian Air Force base in Sicily, Italy. Although a tenant of the Italian Air Force, NAS Sigonella acts as landlord to more than 40 other U.S. commands and activities. It is located 15 km west and 11 km south of the city of Catania. Sigonella also serves as an Italian base for the 41º Stormo Antisom (41st Antisubmarine Warfare Wing). Among the aircraft that fly from this island base are U.S. Air Force C-130, C-17 and C-5 airlifters as well as KC refueling aircraft and a rotating squadron of forward-deployed U.S. Navy P-3 Orions. The Italian Air Force also fields the venerable Breguet Atlantic patrol aircraft. It is one of the most frequently used stops for U.S. airlift aircraft bound from the continental United States to Southwest Asia and the Indian Ocean. Scenery contains all new 3D models and AI aircraft. Package is stand-alone but additional downloads may be helpful (see docs for details).

| TWA Fantasy Pack |

File Description:
TWA Fantasy Pack for AI Traffic. TWA was one of the oldest US airlines at the time of its demise in 2001, having shared unoffical flag-carrier airline status with Pan Am in its heyday. This package pays homage to this once-great airline, with aircraft of a more modern theme. I took the natural direction of the airline at the time of its takeover by American; at which time it had over 120 new aircraft on order, including the A318 and A330-300 series aircraft. This package contains 24 repaints, consisting of a completely new and modern fleet (12 aircraft types comprised of A32X, B73NG, B744, B763WL, A330, and 777) in TWA's final colors; and six variations of retro logojets representing the airline from the 1940s-1990s; six retrojets each for the heavy and small aircraft. I believe you will like the variation and diversity of this project, and there probably will be a TWExpress project of similar theme in the near future. Models used are by Craig Ritchie, David Rawlins, and The Fruit Stand, all repaints by Michael Pearson.

File Description:
Re-upload following Avsim hack. The Chipmunk first flew in 1946. There were numerous variations built in both Canada and Great Britain as a trainer aircraft to replace the Tiger Moth biplane. More than 500 Chipmunks remain airworthy throughout the world today. This aircraft has has been constructed using Gmax v1.2. The aircraft is constructed with as few polygons as possible and with a single texture file to ensure the absolute minimum impact on your framerates. The model has six LODs with the main model having just 2522 polygons (faces/triangles).I would like to especially thank Ray Blake who has kindly made all ten high quality textures for this package.
It is also quite fun to fly as a normal aircraft, but was originally designed specifically to enhance the AI aircraft population and to use with the marvellous GA-Traffic programme by Markus Brunner . The file for GA-Traffic can be found at Avsim: "ga-traffic_setup.zip".
The paintkit is being posted as a separate zip file.

| Aeronautica Militare Fiat/Aeritalia G.91 |

Images related to this file:
File Description:
Aeronautica Militare Fiat/Aeritalia G.91. I present a comprehensive AI traffic model package for this backbone of close air support in Europe during the Cold War years. The G.91 was built to suit a requirement for a NATO-compatible aircraft for close air support and light strike roles, able to operate from terrain as primitive as a flat grassy meadow (I found photos during research that support this). Going into production in 1961, this aircraft was manufactured for 19 years and served three European air forces for 35 years. The G.91 saw extensive combat service in Africa while operated by the Portuguese Air Force.
An original 7-LOD model brings this historic aircraft to the flightsim world. This package represents the G.91 in the service of the Italian Air Force and Frecce Tricolori Demonstration Team; with a total of 22 models and 74 repaints. Aircraft models covered are the G.91PAN, G.91R1, G.91R1A, G.91R1B, G.91T1, and G.91Y. Aircraft, textures, and flight dynamics by Michael Pearson.

| P-51D Mustang "Frenesi" (N357FG) |

Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a repaint for the payware Warbirdsim P-51D "Mustang Tales" product. This repaint depicts the latest Mustang restoration to emerge from Midwest Aero Restorations, completely stock, which just had its first test flight from Danville, Illinois on January 30th. The aircraft is F-6K 44-12852 (restored as a P-51D), owned/operated by Dan Friedkin/Comanche Fighters, based in Texas. Sold surplus immediately following WWII, registered as NX66111, the aircraft was entered into the 1946 Cleveland Air Races as racer #80 "Full House", but its engine blew and was forced to crash-land. Later, the aircraft was sold to Jack Hardwick in the early 50's and crudely rebuilt, with a jump seat and rudimentary dual controls installed in the back of the cockpit, and would soon be sold onto the Dominican Air Force in 1954, becoming FAD 1900 (#2). The aircraft served with the Dominican AF until it was sold and imported back into the US by Brian O'Farrell in 1984. Made serviceable, the aircraft flew again on the US register as N21023 by 1990, and was sold to Jim Beasley Sr. and later owned/operated by Jim Beasley Jr., of Coatesville, PA (sharing hangar space with their P-51D "Bald Eagle"). During this time the aircraft was painted as "Frenesi", the personal mount of WWII 357th Fighter Group ace Gen. Tommy Hayes (the name inspired from a 1940 Artie Shaw tune). By the early 2000's, showing the effects of poor-quality work done on repairing/restoring the aircraft in the past, a complete rebuild of the airframe began. By 2009, the project was sold to Dan Friedkin, now registered as N357FG, and the restoration was continued at Midwest Aero Restorations, known for their award-winning authentic Mustang rebuilds. The aircraft has now emerged in early 2017, resplendent and flying again in the markings of "Frenesi".
