Star Trek Romulan Bird of Prey Cruiser

File Description:
This is my model of the Cricket Class Romulan Cruiser from the Star Trek episode "Balance of Terror" which originally aired on 12-15-1966. The Romulan Bird of Prey in this version is built along the lines of the AMT models released in the 1970's.

AirEd152 Update

File Description:
AirEd(itor) has become one of the most versatile .air-file editors for MSFS 2000 up to 2004/FS9. For FS9 in particular the treatment of section [1101] has become pivotal for tuning the aerodynamics of FS9 aircraft. Yet, for many users the expert jargon remains obscure. Yahia now provides more information on [1101], making tuning easier to understand! References to the CFG file are made as well. Just right-click on an item in [1101] to see new amendments, test values and hints. Some divert from earlier insights or explain where things can go wrong. Also about taxiing are some new hints. AirEd now becomes an easy to understand "Must Have" for everybody interested in tuning FS9 aircraft.

Default Flyable MD-83

File Description:
In this file you have available modified .AIR and .CFG files for you FS2004 or FS2002 default MD-83 aircraft. The .AIR file had a line modified (using William Roth's "AirEd" program), making the MD-83 flyable in FS2004 or FS2002. Also, the max. speed value to lower the gear is corrected to 220 knots (original setting was 120 kts). Includes: .AIR files for FS2004 and FS2002 MD-83, checklists and aircraft specifications. Really worth having, specially if you want to fly the default MD-83.

Afterburner Control gauge

File Description:
This freeware gauge controls an aircraft's Afterburner: (1): Includes an on/off switch and state-light. (2): It prevents the Afterburner being activated if throttle < 95%. (3): Controls a visible effect via the LOGO lights. (4): Controls an audible Afterburner sound and switch-click sound. Although it can be used for any aircraft with an Afterburner, the installation instructions (with examples for two very popular aircraft) assume that you have my Carrier Operation Package (file rcbco-20.zip) installed for that aircraft. The README also explains how you can add real Afterburner thrust to your existing aircraft, using AirEd. By Rob Barendregt.

Bell 206B JetRanger III 1970s-1980s

File Description:
These repaints depict corporate and private fleet paint schemes Bell Helicopter offered in the mid-to-late 1970s up to the late 1980s. Two of these repaints were inspired from Bell JetRanger helicopters used in two episodes of Knight Rider that aired in the first season, one episode being the pilot episode "Knight of the Phoenix". Included in the package are different interior variations, including one with blue carpet flooring and updated interior trim, to one with tan carpet flooring and blue cloth seats. Each repaint is based off of photos taken of Bell JetRanger III helicopters using the paint schemes, and the Knight Rider JetRanger paint schemes are inspired from screenshots taken from the First Season Knight Rider DVD. Those screenshots are included for your viewing pleasure. Full installation tips included in the file "ReadMe_Install.txt."

Cessna 421 advanced physics

File Description:
C421C advanced physics Modification for the Alabeo C421 C Golden Eagle Version: tested for P3DV4; should work also with P3DV5 (and probably FSX) 1. Why I developed the advanced physics version I was asked via this forum, via PMs and also by e-mails to provide a modified version of the Alabeo C421C which can be used for serious multi-engine training. It should have accurate type specific performance for both AEO (all engine operative) and OEI (one engine inoperative), the latter for either a windmilling prop at various speeds and for a feathered engine. Feathering should work as realistic as possible. Thus, I developed an advanced physics version of the Alabeo C421C. It shows realistic physics for negative thrust (prop drives engine). This is necessary for OEI training and more realistic idle power simulation. 2. Modified files Modification includes “c421.air” and “aircraft.cfg” files. Data is based on real world Cessna 421C, N100L, 421C-0313. Aircraft data, equipment list, checklist and other documents for N100L, as well as some images of C421C, registration N100L, can be found here, too. Unfortunately, due to copyrights, I can’t upload the full files and can’t provide the AFM and other copyright protected documents. 3. How to install To update “c421.air”: - Copy the original Alabeo C421 to another aircraft folder, e.g. “C421C advanced physics”. - Use AirEd (freeware) and open the original “c421.air”. Open AirEd a second time and open “modifications advanced physics c421.air”. Copy the modified tables 511 and 512 to the original .air file (right click in modification file -> copy -> right click on original file -> replace from clipboard) To update “aircraft.cfg”: Just copy the modifications to the corresponding position in the original file. 4. Legend of modifications Modifications in aircraft.cfg: - Basic Empty Mass (actual mass for N100L 5,154 lbs inserted; most C421C are more heavy, ours is on diet) - correct basic data for engines + props - engine friction included (necessary for all negative thrust scenarios) - flaps lift + drag scalar adjusted (split flaps) - 2 vacuum pumps - VMO = 151 KIAS; VNE= 240 KIAS - cabin: max. differential pressure: 5.0 psi Modifications in c421.air: - implemented negative thrust scenarios in prop thrust and efficiency curves (tables 511 + 512); adjusted thrust curves for high TAS at high ALT 5. Side effects of modifications: - more realistic engine starting: starting the engine needs the throttle to be 2 cm above idle (see checklist) for the first 15 seconds - if you start the engine and don’t retard the prop to medium RPMs immediately, you will overstress engine and prop. So be careful when doing an air start, you might lose the prop and the aircraft. (In the real aircraft, these effects are less severe, but you have to avoid high RPMs until the engine is warmed up and have to avoid rapid change of RPM.) 6. Additional Notes: - Basic aircraft data as published by the manufacturer, like range and service ceilings, especially OEI, are based on MTOM. - The use of high payloads close to MTOM and higher ambient temperatures are making for a more challenging OEI training. - In the sim, climb power is too low compared to full power (about 65 % instead of 75 %). I have to find a way to adjust that. - I have buttons for engine failure under the mixture (see images) - Seat Position is, like in many Aircraft, higher than as per Default by the sim. For the C421C and me being 5 ft 7 in, that's about 7 clicks arrow up.
