| Imperial Airways - Croydon to Cologne - 1934 |
|
File Description:
This Flight recreates the daily service operated over the 340 miles between London (Croydon airport), Brussels (Belgium) and Cologne, in Germany. The aircraft used is the Short Scylla, a four-engined machine and the land version of the Short Scipio flying boat and modelled by Jens Kristensen - s17l_v2.zip at Avsim. (As there is no Croydon airport in the default FSim 2004 you will need to download a file named vla.zip, by John McKeon. There is a minor update, vlatxfx.zip, which you should also download.) Please read the Word DOC file I've included with this package as it contains important information regarding the flight.

| Ansett Flying Boat Services - Rose Bay to Lord Howe Island - 1969 |
|
File Description:
A Flight created for Flight Simulator 2004 and which utilises the Short Sandringham created by Jens Kristensen, this time in the 1970's livery of Ansett Flying Boat Services. A special set of textures has been created specifically for the Ansett version and is included with this package, together with instructions on its simple installation.
Ansett Flying Boat Services ran scheduled flights between Rose Bay and Lord Howe Island, a very popular tourist destination, particularly with honeymooners.
These flights usually departed Rose Bay on a Sunday, with the trip taking about two-and-a-half hours.
This allowed for new holiday-makers to arrive at their destination with a complete week ahead of them and, at the same time, for returning passengers to arrive back in Sydney on Sunday evening, ready for work the next day! Installation instructions are included.

| Ansett Flying Boat Services - Rose Bay to Lake Eucumbene, Snowy Mts. - 1971 |

File Description:
An historic Flight which utilises the Short Sandringham created by Jens Kristensen, this time in the 1970's livery of Ansett Flying Boat Services. A special set of textures has been created specifically for the Ansett version and is included with this package, together with instructions on its simple installation.

| TEAL - the Coral Route - 1952 |
|
File Description:
TEAL introduced this service in 1951, ferrying passengers, mail and small freight items between Auckland (NZ), Suva (Fiji), Faleolo (Samoa), Motu Akaiami (Cook Islands) and Papeete (Tahiti, French Polynesia).
Service was initially monthly but after six months became fortnightly as its appeal spread world-wide. After all, who wouldn’t like to spend a holiday in a tropical paradise, conveyed to your destination aboard a flying boat, landing in tranquil lagoons fringed by white sandy beaches and palm trees?
Now you can relive those idyllic times by flying your Short Solent IV from Auckland to Tahiti in early May, 1952.
Please read the enclosed INSTALL.txt first and and coral52.doc files for essential information.

This is a small collection of BGL scenery files for those locations in Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific Ocean at which scheduled stops and/or refuelling bases were located for QANTAS, TEAL and some other flying boat operations.
