| TLPC George F. L. Charles Airport Castries, Saint Lucia |
|
File Description:
George F. L. Charles Airport (TLPC) is a small airport in Saint Lucia, mostly serving the caribbean Islands. It is the airport that is situated in the north of the island in the capital city of Castries.
It serves quite a few regional airlines mainly operating turbo props like the dash8, ATR and smaller types, but has handled bigger types in the past such as MD82 (BWIA) and B722 (AMERIJET). Since stopped because of noise complaints. (SIGHS)
This is my first attempt at scenery design. I was motivated to build this scenery because I grew up near the airport and always enjoyed flying in there Whether in real or in the sim.
Since FSX, there`s been no scenery built for it and I could not stand the default scenery. So almost two years ago, not knowing a thing about scenery design and where to start, I embarked on this project. It is by no means perfect, but I think it is better than what is on offer. There are no custom ground textures cause I have not worked it out yet, maybe in a later update. The buildings where all made with Google Sketchup8 free version and converted with ModelConverterX and added to FSX with Instant Scenery 2. ENJOY.

| Mitsubishi G4M1 "Betty" |
|
File Description:
Mitsubishi G4M1 “Betty” twin engined attack aircraft.
Multi res model made with Abacus Flight Sim Design studio version2,
this model is specifically for FS9 (there is/will be a CFS2 version).
The “Betty” was a surprisingly agile aircraft with a long range. Used to
deliver a varied payload, ranging from single torpedo to multiple bombs
it’s mission were many and varied. In truth it was often sent where 4
engined bombers should have flown.
Animations
This model has the usual surface animations, detailed landing gear and
working cowl flaps and also includes the following:
Co pilot directions: In use, it was common practice for the co pilot to
stand on his seat and give the pilot taxiing instructions.
This is reproduced by using SHIFT + E
Action stations can be called by using the SHIFT+E+2 combination. Watch
the crew spring in to action!
Side door and ladder. This is actioned by using whatever combination you
use for concorde nose raise and lower.
Bomb bay: The Betty didn’t have traditional opening and closing bomb bay
doors but a series of different fitted panels depending on what payload was
being carried. This model is represented with a torpedo payload that can be
seen by using the spoiler key /

File Description:
Dimensionally identical to the first-generation Constellation (L-049), the
post-war 749 had more powerful engines, additional fuel tanks, strengthened
landing gear, and much improved performance. Equally good for shuttle hops
and long-range flights, L-749 Connies entered service with major 1950s
carriers such as Eastern, TWA, B.O.A.C., Air France, KLM, Quantas, and many
others. Another customer was the Air Force, which placed an order for ten
aircraft (designated C-121A) in 1948.
Included in this sim package are seven
models and five textures, covering variants with and without "Speedpak"
cargo pannier, weather radar, and "jetstack" exhausts. KLM texture by Jaap
de Baare (representing "Flevoland", the last 749 in flying condition today).
TWA texture N6003C "Star of America" by Hans Herrmann. EAL, Air France, and
MATS textures by Manfred Jahn (including "8609", a frequent visitor to
airshows all over the world until 2005). Panel textures and additional
gauges by Diego S. Barreto, model and VC by Manfred Jahn, panels, gauges,
and animations by Hansjoerg Naegele, flight dynamics by Luis Pallas,
wingview angles, lights, and exhaust effects by Bill Tyne and Roland Berger,
checklist and documentation by Volker Boehme, flight test and handling
research by Stefan Werner. The 749 project has been hosted by Tom Gibson's
Calclassic forum at http://calclassic.proboards55.com.

| Tradewinds Airways Canadair CL-44 1977 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a repaint of the Canadair CL-44 in Tradewinds Airways colors. You need the freeware Canadair CL-44 by Mike Stone. Tradewinds was a British air cargo company. In November 1968, Transglobe Airways ceased operations, leaving a fleet of Canadair CL-44s lease-purchased from Seaboard World Airlines in limbo. Later in the month, Bobwood was formed to takeover the aircraft lease. Bobwood's name was changed to Tradewind Airways in January 1969 and all three ex-Transglobe Airways CL-44s were transferred over to the new company. Due to Seaboard World Airlines (a U.S. Cargo airline) having a large interest in Tradewinds, the British Government would not issue a license. Thus, in April, a British group was put together to take over the company. Consequently, a route network was developed primarily to Africa and North America in 1971–1976. Also in 1972, the carrier began flying from London Heathrow, often on all-cargo subcontracts for foreign airlines. In January 1977, Tradewinds became a wholly owned subsidiary of the multinational Lonrho Group. They received the 707-320Cs soon after. In 1978–1979, Tradewinds offered scheduled jet freight services from London to points in Africa, USA, and Canada. Unfortunately, in January 1986, Tradewinds ceased operations, citing overcapacity, undercutting by competing charter services, and stringent new noise abatement rules as cause of the demise. Its assetts were purchased by Tal Air, a British business travel airline, and tried to revive Tradewinds with freight services to Africa and the Middle East, however it was not to be, and they finally shut down for good in 1990.
Textures are 32bit bmp. This aircraft was tested on FSX-SE. It should work on FSX and FS2004.
*This is strictly an FS2004 model. However, I used it on FSX-SE by replacing the FS2004 panel and gauges with an FSX 2D panel, and it worked well. I have included two internet links for users of FSX, who wish to fly the aircraft, with easy instructions on how to go about replacing the FS2004 panels with FSX ones.

| Martinair "Biafra" Douglas DC-6A |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description: On 13 December 1966 the Dutch charter company Martinair Holland (MAC), proud
owner of a fleet of four Douglas C-47, a Douglas C-54B, two Convair 640, and
four Douglas DC-7C aircraft, bought a Douglas DC-6A registered PH-MAM. The
DC-6A, which at one time belonged to KLM and could transport 11 tons payload or
97 passengers, was aquired in order to replace the smaller C-54B PH-MAE. It was
a very popular aircraft among crew and passengers alike. From the late October
1968 till the beginning of January 1970, PH-MAM flew on the Biafra airlift from
the island of Fernando Po to Uli airstrip to provide humanitarian aid, on behalf
of the Dutch Red Cross. Having returned from this mission, the aircraft was
overhauled and used by Martinair for one more year, before being sold to
Yugoslavia. The inspiration for this repaint was a coincidental meeting at
Schiphol I had many years ago with former Martinair Captain Dries van Ommen. He
was in command of PH-MAM during the Biafra airlift. We had a nice conversion,
accompanied by the impressive sight and sound of a DC-6 during take off. These
are textures only. You will need California Classic's FS2004/FSX Douglas DC-6B
CB-16 Base Pack, DC-6A CB-17 Base Pack and DC-6A CB-16 Base Pack (available at
http://www.calclassic.com/dc6b.htm). Repaint by Maarten Brouwer. For FS2004 and FSX.

| KLM Aerocarto DH-89B Dominie (PH-OTA) |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This file contains a repaint for the beautiful de Havilland DH-89A Dragon Rapide by Dave Garwood c.s. which is available at Classic British Flight Sim. It features the DH-89B Dominie PH-OTA of KLM's susidiary KLM Aerocarto which was used from 1952 till 1962 for air photography. The real aircraft still exists, in the camouflage livery it had during its days with the -then- Netherlands Air Force. It is part of the static collection of the Nationaal Militair Museum (National Military Museum) at Soesterberg, Netherlands which is to open its doors in the Autumn of 2014. The de Havilland DH-89 Dragon Rapide was designed as a short-haul airliner for 6-8 passengers, making its first flight from Hatfield on 17 April 1934. During WW2 many Dragon Rapides were impressed by the military forces for communications transport and served under the name de Havilland Dominie. Additionally over 500 Dominies were built, the majority as radio and navigation trainers but several also as communications and transport aircraft. Since de Havilland's priority was the mass production of the famous Mosquito, 335 of the Dominies (including PH-OTA)
were built by Brush Coachworks Ltd., Loughborough, UK. In all 731 DH-89's were built, several of which are still airworthy some 68 years after production came to an end. Repaint by Maarten Brouwer.

| RAAF Avro York MW140 |
|
File Description:
textures for Classic British Flight Sim avro york. First Flight 10/11/44. Delivered RAF 246 Sqn 09/02/45. Transfered to RAAF as 'Endeavour' and allocated A74-1 10/03/45. To 1 AD 19/03/45. To Governor Generals Flight 02/04/45. To 17 RSU for engine change 10/04/45. To Governor Generals Flight 11/04/45. Although the RAAF identification number A74 was allocated, the York retained the original serial MW140, but the RAF markings were exchanged for the contemporary RAAF blue and white roundels and flashes. The York was used for long-range flights including the Duke's tour of New Guinea, New Britain, and Bougainville Island. The flight was terminated on July 5 1945, because of the death of the Prime Minister, the Rt Hon John Curtin. On two occasions, September 20 1945, and October 5 1945 "Endeavour" was flown to Singapore to evacuate ex-POWs, and on the first return journey a record flight was established between Perth and Canberra. On January 17 1947, "Endeavour" departed from Mascot and arrived in England on January 23 1947, where the aircraft was handed back to the Air Ministry. 06/01/48, RAF 24 Sqn. 03/52, Withdrawn & stored RAF 12MU Kirkbride, Cumbria, UK, 07/09/54 Aviation Jersey - later broken up. Although allocated A74-1, it was never applied to the aircraft

| KPHX - Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport |
|
File Description:
This is an AFCAD2 for the default Phoenix Sky Harbor airport. My most accurate AFCAD yet. I was able to use the jetway shadows and others objects on the default land mass to accurately place each gate in the exact real life position they were when the photograph was taken. I utilized other satellite images and many photos from airliners.net to help verify exact gate and airline locations. Only difference here unfortuantely is there are no jetways, only jetway shadows. Maybe someone can make some jetways for this KPHX? 99.9% of all gates at the real airport are present in this AFCAD, and properly numbered. I've also included the cargo and military ramp, America West and Southwest maintenance parking, as well as added a few GA gates for you civil flyers. This AFCAD is roughly as of March 2005, so parts of Taxiway Echo near Terminal 4-D are closed and under construction in the AFCAD. I've closed 8/26 for takeoffs and used it with 7R/25L for landings. 7L/25R will be used as the primary takeoff runway. I think that covers everything. If you have time, select the Top-Down view in your sim, and you can see all the jetways from the land mass lined up with each aircraft. Kinda cool, enjoy! :) If there are any errors, let me know. Thanks.

Images related to this file:
File Description:
HMS Bounty for FSX - VERSION 1.1 - Built Specifically for FSX - (separate package required for FS9) by Milton Shupe, Nigel Richards, Rob Barendregt, Sasha Rieger, and Rob Ibey. Helmsman by Craig "Full" Richardson.
HMS Bounty 18th Century Tall Ship square rigger completely wind driven, individually animated and controlled sails, animated flags with direction and wind speeds, animated helm, and Sail Management Window to control all ship functions. Ship responds to wind speeds and direction with yaw, keeling, and pitch depending on sails deployed and yard arm positions. Ambient sounds, variable wind and gale storm sounds, ship's bell, "Salute", anchor weigh/drop all add to immersion.
WILL NOT WORK IN FS9 as it contains FSX native texture formatting and FSX specific sim interfaces. (Separate FS9 package available). BIG NOTE: The latest version of FSUIPC is Required for the HMS Bounty to work. Note: Realism settings should be set to "Hard" for best Wind Effects (Will not work on "Easy" realism in FSX).
Version 1.1 upgrades:
1) Even more realistic wind effects on yaw and roll based on the confluence of sails deployed, wind speeds and direction relative to ship heading, yard arms angle to the wind, and ground speed.
2) Tugboat function added.
3) Corrected lights positions.
4) Documentation updates.

| Replacement Dynamic Water Texture Set Version 12 |
|
File Description:
Replacement dynamic water texture set for FS2004 (VERSION 12). The default reflections and water colors leave a lot to be desired in FS2004. As an example; The default "bright green" overcast texture is highly unrealistic in overcast conditions. Most of the FS9 default colours are generally too electric and cartoon like. These replacement textures will change these water environment textures dramatically to a much more convincing and realistic colour and, with improved lighting and reflections in respect to the sun. Version 12 moon light textures are new and there is an improved mid-sun with more convincing reflections. Now when you fly by moonlight you can actually see the moon kissed water and even see some wave action. It actually feels like you are there! There are 3 moon light textures in this download. These replacement textures will generally give a much more realistic tone and color to the water effects in FS2004. The change is quite dramatic and transforms the flight sim experience to a much greater level of realism. It is important to stress the default FS9 textures are fully compatible with these new textures and they can be used in any combinations and can be mixed and matched with the new textures. As a further added bonus a voice control file has been included for "Shoot" which will control FS2004 by voice. It is brilliant and it's free.
