Optional Enhancement to Targan Unutmaz's 737NG panel - 2 XML gauges.

File Description:
A small change to Targan Unutmaz's excellent B737NG panel - Tungv1/Tungv1a.zip. This adds a registration to the panel other than the one shown by default (TC-JFT) by placing a gauge over the plate that displays the registration from your aircraft.cfg file. It also adds a new Icon (similar to the one for popping-up the FS9 GPS) that will pop-up Lee Hetherington's TCAS gauge. This archive requires that you install Lee's gauge as per his instructions.

Air Glaciers - HTAI Beech and Mike Cronin Pilatus

File Description:
This package lets you have a Beech holiday in the mountains. Air Glaciers operates Beechcraft King Airs from Sion to various destinations closer to the sea. They are frequent visitors to Corsica across to Krk (Rijeka) from their mountain lair. This package contains three Beech King Air repaints based on the Henry Tomkiewicz AI King Air 200 (4-blade, strakes) and, one they've got you to Sion there are three Pilatus Turbo Porters (based on the Mike Cronin low-poly PC6) to carry you onward into the mountains. The King Airs have accurate weekly flightplans (plus a few charters) and the Turbo Porters have very simple plans that service nearby airports. The effect at Sion is quite nice. If you want the Turbo Porters to service altiports you'll need to devise your own plans and find a way of landing AI on steep slopes! If you manage that, you can start on the choppers ... Now I'm going on the piste ... (aka having a beer ...). Enjoy!

Itali Airlines Dornier 328Jet (PAI)

File Description:
This package will put two Dornier 328Jets back into the Italian skies. Itali operates two ex-Gandalf J328s within Italy, currently thet're in a basic Gandalf colour scheme, but that might change. These textures were originally created for the Sherman/Versluys J328 which has subsequently been taken on by Project AI (PAI). I have renamed the textures to the PAI convention since that aircraft is well suported by the PAI group. Basic flight plans (daily) have been made that reflect the airline's current business within Italy.

Some Curved or Angled Approaches, Beirut, Washington Reagan, Lugano and Swiss valleys

File Description:
This little project started from my Air Glaciers package when I noticed how indifferent the AI pilots were to terrain. Intrigued by the work of Jim Vile on his "active approach" series I have experimented with interesting approaches that FS9 has not implemented. Using XML files I created curved approaches for Beirut Runway 21 ILS (inbound flights arc across the city), the visual turn to final for Washington Reagan's Runway 19, the circling approach for runway 19 at Lugano in Switzerland (just an arc in this case) and valley approaches for airports in Switzerland at Sion, Samedan and Locarno. Due to AI limitations in FS9 these have all needed to be created as ILS approaches, even at airports without an ILS. Note that your AFCAD layouts do not need to have ILS added to airports that don't have it. In some cases the approach will be called an ILS by the controller, if you can live with that, you might like these. Note that I've included the source XML for each of the approaches so that you can improve upon them if you wish. Note also that they have been tested with the default Microsoft mesh and an addon mesh might alter the proximity of terrain to aircraft. AI aircraft FDEs will, in some cases, be stretched to (and beyond?) their limits. In the case of Beirut I have included two approaches (BOB NDB and "Wide Arc"), the latter less demanding than the former, in case your AI can't fly the BOD NDB approach. Note that although the approaches are designed for AI, I have built full procedures for Lugano and Sion for the user to fly.

Riviera Approaches to Nice Cote D'Azur airport

File Description:
This archive contains 2 BGL files. The first is an AFCAD layout for Nice airport that is compatible with the Nikaya scenery, notes are in the readme. The second is a revised set of approaches to the airport that include the angled approaches to Nice, flown overwater to reduce the noise nuisance. Now your AI will approach LFMN from the south and turn onto short finals. Tested with all popular AI brands!

Nice Cote D'Azur Revised

File Description:
When I created the angled approaches for Nice airport (uploaded recently to Avsim) I didn't check that the version of the Nicaya scenery I was using was the latest. Since I last downloaded the scenery the designer (Guy Lemoz) has changed the scenery design method. Thus the AFCAD that I uploaded with the approaches might not have looked too great with the V5.0D scenery, and this version, loosely based on Guy's original, has been developed to rectify that problem. It even includes the yellow markings to indicate the closed runway 05.

Dubrovnik Airline Callsign - Seagull

File Description:
This small file adds the callsign for Dubrovnik Airline, which is apparently "Seagull". Happy spotting ... and remember to take a tissue.

Riga Airport - EVRA - Latvia

File Description:
This scenery represents the main international gateway airport to Latvia. Riga is the home of airBaltic, RAF-Avia, Inversija, Lat Charter, Latpass, and is becoming involved in the low-cost destinations boom, with services by Ryanair already established and new services by Aer Lingus. The airport is also in talks with Easyjet regarding the possibility of services. For longer-haul, Uzbekistan stages a 767 through here to New York, and Israir operates a weekly 757 service to Tel Aviv. If you fancy flying an An-72 or IL-76 in FS9, you now have an airport to go with it. Gate numbers at the pier are accurate, gate numbering elsewhere is guesstimated; the airport has full night lighting. As with my Sharjah scenery (just receiving a minor upgrade) I have included a fair amount of off-airport detail. Please enjoy your stay in Latvia!

Hunting Air Services Britten-Norman BN2 Islander

File Description:
Textures only for Henry Tomkiewicz's Britten-Norman BN2 Islander for AI traffic. They depict the livery of Hunting Air Services' Islander aircraft that I've seen operating in Zimbabwe. Two versions, one with registration Z-UAS and one without registration, together with two fictitious flightplans that get the aircraft moving about in and around Zimbabwe. You need to have Henry's Islander active in your setup. You can get the model from Dee Waldon's Community Projects webpage.

Optional 32-bit textures for my Harare and Victoria Falls sceneries.

File Description:
This archive contains only the 32-bit format replacement textures for use with my sceneries for Harare and Victoria Falls that are also hosted on Avsim. This archive has been made separate because people using dial-up access shouldn't be forced to upload gargantuan texture files simply to enjoy a new airport or two. Note that the textures were worked on as 24-bit images and saved as 32-bit.
