| XFCS 1.5 (Fly By Wire-plugin) |
|
File Description:
XFCS simulates fly-by-wire control of combat aircraft. See readme.pdf for indepth description.
News in version 1.5
- XFCS now works with X-Plane's autopilot. All autopilot commands are exectuted by the FCS control laws, resulting in excellent autopilot accuracy and seemless integration.
- Improved pitch response in AoA-demand mode.
- AoA-demand mode blends AoA and speed data, making it easier to control speed and glideslope with power adjustments.
- AoA-feedback in G-demand mode: Flying above 15 degrees angle of attack requires light stick backpressure. Many real control systems work this way.
- Inverted flight now requires slight forward stick pressure. A lot of pilots feel more at home with this behaviour and many real FCS�s have it.
- �Mach bucket� is now simulated. This is a common way to handle transsonic pitch buffeting. Max load factor is decreased by 2 G�s in the Mach .95 - 1.1 range.
- XFCS should now run faster on low end computers, having less effect on frame rate.
- Transition from ground mode to flight mode now follows pitch attitude instead of airspeed. This works better for most designs.

File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the A2A/Aircraft Factory F4-U Corsair, in the colors of the aircraft of Robert Hampton "Hammy" Gray VC, DSC. Lt Grey was a Canadian naval officer, pilot, and recipient of the Victoria Cross (VC) during World War II, one of only two members of the Royal Navy's Fleet Air Arm to have been thus decorated in that war. The citation for his VC read: "The KING has been graciously pleased to approve the award of the VICTORIA CROSS for valour to: — the late Temporary Lieutenant Robert Hampton GRAY, R.C.N.V.R.,for great valour in leading an attack on a Japanese destroyer in Onagawa Wan, on 9th August, 1945. In the face of fire from shore batteries and a heavy concentration of fire from some five warships Lieutenant Gray pressed home his attack, flying very low in order to ensure success, and, although he was hit and his aircraft was in flames, he obtained at least one direct hit, sinking the destroyer. Lieutenant Gray has consistently shown a brilliant fighting spirit and most inspiring leadership."
Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the A2A paintkit.

| Wekweeti CFJ2 in the Northwest Territories, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Wekweeti is a small village in the Northwest Territories, around 120 miles north of Yellowknife and 100 east of Gameti, which was recently posted. It has a population of around 125. There is no all-weather road access and the village is reliant upon the airfield for supplies, along with an ice road in the winter months. The area is a complex collection of lakes and small rivers and the airfield is around 3 miles east of the village on a lake shore. The lit gravel runway of 3,400 feet with PAPI at both ends is aligned 307T-127T with T standing for "true" and not the unreliable magnetic heading in the Canadian northern domestic airspace. The airfield is served by Air Tindi from Yellowknife on an almost daily basis, included in the AI here along with some GA and a Thursday delivery by a Buffalo DC3. A note here about my scenery making. There will not be many more to follow this as I am almost at the end of the photos I either took or found for scenery purposes, plus I expect to move on from FS9 at some point during next year.

| RAF Scorton |
|
File Description:
RAF Scorton was opened in October 1939 as part of 13 Group Fighter Command and a satellite station of RAF Catterick. It was located near the village of Scorton in North Yorkshire. It was used by the Royal Air Force, the Royal Canadian Air Force, and the United States Army Air Forces Ninth Air Force during the war.
The location was chosen for its flat terrain and its situation close to the now disbanded Eryholme-Richmond branch line that had a sub branch line to Catterick Garrison and RAF Catterick.
The famous No. 56 Squadron RAF flew Spitfires from Scorton during the Second World War. Also the USAAF 422d and 425th Night Fighter Squadrons were stationed at Scorton flying the Northrup P-61 "Black Widow" fighter.
The Aerodrome closed in 1945 and most of the concreted areas have been extensively quarried away for sand and gravel extraction. Most of what was the airfield is now under a lake or a quarry. There are a few military pre-fab buildings remaining in the area – they were dismantled after the war and moved to local farms to be used as agricultural buildings.

| Air North 'Yukon Livery' Boeing 737-201 (C-GNAU) |
|
File Description:
I am proud to present this realistic, detailed repaint of Air North's Boeing 737-201, registration C-GNAU, in the newer "Yukon livery". This aircraft has a distinct orange tail with the name of the territory which gives this airline its name; Yukon. Air North is a Canadian Airline based in Whitehorse, Yukon, and is 100% owned by Yukoners. This project has been fun for a significant reason; the people of Air North. I contacted them with a request for their logos to use in this repaint, and they were gracious and professional in granting my request. So I dedicate this repaint to Air North their kind personnel; especially Josh Clark. For this as with all of the aircraft I paint, I paid attention to detail and realism as much as possible and generated this repaint with realistic but not overstated details. The textures in this repaint are 32-bit. All Air North logos used in this repaint are copyrighted property of Air North and are used on this repaint with permission from Air North. This is a textures only package; you must have the Tinmouse 737-200adv v2 base package available here at AVSIM.

| Ferndale 53U in Montana US |

File Description:
I have made this because I downloaded and tried the Glacier Park photo land-class scenery by Blue Sky Scenery and then rediscovered that the airfield runways are not correctly positioned or aligned in FS9. So I corrected the Ferndale runway and while I was there also added 33 hangars and some parked planes. Of course, as all I know about the hangars is the colour of the roof this isn't up to total realism. It is, however, better than nothing and as I have a large stock of hangars from other sceneries not much effort was involved.
Ferndale is an "airpark" type of airfield where folks build their houses and hangers around the field, plus it also has a bunch of hangars; it is the "bunch" that I have replicated, as I have no idea at all what the houses look like. The field is 20 miles southeast of Glacier Park International at 3,060 feet ASL and around 55 miles south of the Canadian border. There are no large towns close by; the nearest would be Missoula, which is some 70 miles further south.

File Description:
This is a repaint for the freeware Warwick "Wozza" Carter AT-6G Texan. This repaint depicts the restored Harvard Mk.4 RCAF Ser. 20405, N3405, registered to Yellow Canuck, LLC (Texas Flying Legends Museum). This aircraft began service with the Royal Canadian AF in 1952 and served until 1965. Although little information is readily available, it was reported that as of 1978, the aircraft was being stored, in original military configuration, in Mesa, Arizona. In about 2004 a ground-up restoration began in North Dakota and around 2011/2012 the aircraft was brought to Aircorps Aviation of Bemidji, Minnesota for completion. The aircraft has since been delivered to its current owner, painted in its original RCAF colors, and is an absolutely immaculate and authentic restoration throughout. The aircraft is one of 11 warbirds that the Texas Flying Legends Museum will be flying to Airventure 2013. 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.

| Wrigley CYWY - Northwest Territories, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Wrigley is the next in a series of airfields that follow (approximately) in a southward direction that early access route to the Canadian northern shore, the Mackenzie River. At the far northern end there is Tuktoyaktuk, then Inuvik, Fort McPherson, Fort Good Hope, and Deline, all posted. Wrigley is at 489 feet asl and on the east bank of the the Mackenzie, around 135 miles due south of Deline. The town of Wrigley has a population of only 125 or so folks, and was relocated to its current position in 1965 from Fort Wrigley to be near the WW2 era airfield; I have no idea where Fort Wrigley is, or was. The airport is just over a mile south of the town, and has 3,500 feet of gravel runway. North Wright Air have scheduled flights to here and other airfields up and down the Mackenzie (including Deline, Fort Simpson, and Fort Good Hope etc) which is reflected in the revised AI. There is again a mandatory radio frequency but I have set the "tower" as unmanned so you will announce intentions and join downwind. There is no fuel available.
