File Description:
By 1951 the final ocean to be traversed for air travel was the South Pacific between Australia and South America.

They made a shakedown flight to Grafton, NSW, landing on the Clarence River, and next morning headed east for South America. Stops were made at Noumea; Fiji; Samoa; Cook Islands; Tahiti; and Mangareva, French Oceania and then Easter Island before arriving in Valparaiso on 26th. March 1951.
The aircraft was subsequently presented to Captain Taylor by the then Prime Minister, Sir Robert Menzies, in recognition of the first air-crossing of the South Pacific Ocean and other pioneering flights.

| Amelia Earhart's 1937 World Flight Commemorative |
|
File Description:
Here is a set of FS2002 flights to commemorate Amelia Earhart's ill-fated 1937 World Flight. She and Navigator Fred Noonan disappeared on 2 July 1937 on their 2224 nm flight from Lae, New Guinea to Howland Island. They had already completed 19,000 nm. There are two options for flying these flights, a 29-leg version matching Earhart's with leg lengths up to 20 hours or a 107-leg version with an average leg length of one and a half hours. Best to fly this commemorative with the Lockheed Electra L10E, but can be flown by other twin-engine aircraft with less realism. Simple one-step installation. Extensive notes accompany the flight descriptions. Includes scenery for airports not available in FS2002.

This package includes two flights covering the entire route, one for the Imperial Airways section and the other for the "Guba" survey flight.

| Raiatea Airport, Uturoa, French Polynesia, NTTR |
|
File Description:
This is a total update of the airport at Raiatea in French Polynesia. It is the largest airport in the Society Islands outside of Tahiti. This scenery contains a new realistic terminal, the rustic hangar area, and the tower, along with tropical landscaping, and an afcad by Ray Smith. This island along with all of the Society Islands of French Polynesia are among the most beautiful paradises on Earth. They can all be greatly enhanced by using the terrain mesh by John Applegate, and Rolf Keibel, updated for FS2004 under the name of fpsimesh.zip. There are also some new landclass files for this area which will also greatly enhance this forgotten area in FS, and their location is available in the read me file of this scenery.

| Hilo International Airport, Hilo, Hawaii, PHTO |
|
File Description:
This is an all new Hilo airport right down to the last tree. The terminal has been completely re-worked, and is much more detailed, as is the hangar area. You can drive into the terminal and find check-in desks, along with building support beams. This airport is all open air, so there are no windows or doors. The scenery includes the rental car area just outside of the main airport entrance, the inter-Island terminal, parking lot, heliport for sightseeing tours of the volcanoes, new hangars and cargo buildings, landscaping, and a new animated bus macro from John de Langristin. All airport vehicles which had scale problems between FS2004 and 02 have been removed, so the scenery should also be compatible with FS2002.

| Mayaguana (MYMM) - The Bahamas |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Mayaguana is the easternmost island in the Bahamas with Bahamasair providing Nassau and Inagua air connections. The airport utilizes part of an abandoned 11,000 foot USAF runway. The runway is listed as 7300 foot long, but 2400 feet on the east end is closed indefinitely. A new terminal building was completed, but no apron or taxiway connects it to the runway so it is unoccupied. Construction was started on another terminal, apron and taxiway as well as runway repaving, but the project is currently abandoned. All of the aforegoing is represented by this scenery. The scenery includes custom scenery objects; placement of library objects and landclass changes. Scenery is based on Bing Maps and photos taken locally, and it is optimized for use with UTX-TAC.

| The French Polynesia Tuamotu Archipelago Scenery X Part A (Tuamotu-X_A) |
|
File Description:
FSX Scenery FRENCH POLYNESIA TUAMOTU ARCHIPELAGO SCENERY Part A
This scenery improves specific area (Tuamotu Archipelago) of FSX.
The archiperago scattered in the northeast of Tahiti island is composed of 78 islands.
I reproduced the 52 islands in the archipelago as add-on senery.
They are islands like a beautiful necklace sprinkled in the tropical ocean.
The French Polynesia Tuamotu Archipelago Scenery X Part A (Tuamotu-X_A)
includes west side of the whole archipelago because of the file size.
This scenery requires Tuamotu-X_B scenery (fpta-xb.zip).
Please be sure to download the Tuamotu-X_B.
When the Tuamotu-X_B scenery is installed together with this scenery,
the huge Tuamotu Archipelago including all of "The Chain Islands" will appear.
