| PAL Express ATR72-500 |
|
File Description:
This is a repaint texture for the wonderful Flight1 ATR72-500 in fictional PAL Express Livery. You need the payware Flight1 ATR72-500 pack for this repaint to work.
PAL Express is the new, low-fares brand of Philippine Airlines. It was launched on May 5, 2008 with a mandate to serve mainly domestic island points and secondary routes throughout the Philippines from hubs in Cebu and Manila. In this way, PAL Express aims to boost trade, tourism and the local economy in outlying island communities.

File Description:
Five repaints for the Aerosoft PBY-5 Catalina in the colors of PBY-5's operated by Qantas on the 'Double Sunrise Service' between Western Australia and Ceylon between 1943 and 1945.
In 1943, Royal Australian Air Force personnel were seconded to operate Catalinas under the banner of Qantas. The plan called for flights between Perth, Western Australia, and RAF Base Koggala in southern Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). The flights were the longest non-stop air route of any airline, over 3,500 nautical miles (6,480 km) across the Indian Ocean. Navigating without the aid of radio, the crews relied solely on rudimentary navigation by compass and stars during the trip.
Only Catalinas had that kind of range, so five PBY-5 flying boats were converted to make them suitable for the trip.
They received camouflage paint, with a RAAF roundel on the fuselage, but also a civilian registration, since they were officialy operated by Qantas, and they were named after the stars they would be using for navigation:
Vega Star (G-AGFL/FP221 - tail code 1)
Altair Star (G-AGFM/FP244 - tail code 2)
Rigel Star (G-AGID/JX575 - tail code 3)
Antares Star (G-AGIE/JX577 - tail code 4)
Spica Star (G-AGKS/JX287 - tail code 5)
Taking between 27 and 33 hours, with departure timed so that the flight crossed Japanese occupied territory during darkness, the crews would observe the sunrise twice, which led to the service being known as "The Double Sunrise". The flight route flown was along the coast from Perth to Exmouth then setting out towards Cocos (Keeling) Island or Christmas Island (though neither was actually sighted during the flight) and onto Kogalla, a journey of approximately 3,580 nautical miles (6,630 km). After the success of the initial flights, it was decided to run a weekly service, with some services flying over Rottnest Island and then taking a direct line to Kogalla. As part of the Australia-England air route there was a surface component from Kogalla to Karachi that added considerable time to the service. This was later replaced by the Double Sunrise service, with Karachi to England flown by BOAC. Air crews would change in Kogalla taking the next plane in either direction minimising the time taken to complete the journey.
Though stripped of all non-essential equipment, including de-icing equipment and insulation, the average takeoff weight was 15,900 to 16,000 kg; this included 9,040 liters of fuel, which gave the Catalina a range of 3,600 nautical miles (6,700 km). The service made 271 crossings, delivered over 4,500 kg of mail and carried 860 passengers, including among them British MP Edith Summerskill and the journalist Keith Murdoch. 'The Secret Order of The Double Sunrise' was an illustrated certificate given to passengers aboard the flying boats of the Australia-England air link, to attest they had been airborne for more than 24 hours.
After the war the five modified Catalinas that had flown The Double Sunrise service were scuttled.

| Durban Island CWFB FOX-E DEW line station in Nunavut, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Durban Island is 40 miles north of Cape Dyer on the southeast corner of Baffin Island, and around 60 miles southeast of Qikiqtarjuaq (known as Broughton until recently). Sitting on the top of the island is FOX-E, an intermediate station that was part of the DEW line. There is no runway (and once you have seen the island you will know why) and the station and its (usually) five man crew were supported by helicopter flights from Cape Dyer. The main feature is a 300' high mast, topped by comms gear to link both to Broughton to the north and Cape Dyer to the south. There was only one really habitable building, 80' x 30' in round figures, and this contained the generators, technical spaces, sleeping areas, kitchen, mess, and showers etc. There were also what were known as Anderson shelters, originally put up to house the construction crew and used in the summer for any maintenance people who visited for short periods. There was also a garage for a snow cat and tanks for fuel. And a view.
This post also includes new bgls for Cape Dyer to provide the 300' tower there too.

| The island of Capraia N43.3.2 E9.50.13 and City |
|
File Description:
The island of Capraia N43.3.2 E9.50.13 is located in the Corsica Channel (arm of the sea on the border between the Ligurian Sea and the Tyrrhenian Sea), and is an island of volcanic origin, the third largest in the Tuscan Archipelago. It has high and rocky coasts with no beaches (sometimes in the Cala della Mortola there is a small sandy beach [5]) and a small lake basin (called Stagnone or Laghetto [6]) in the most mountainous area, with peaks along a central chain Anticamente called Aigylion Greeks and then Capraria from the Romans, the name derives from the presence of wild goats on the island, but according to another hypothesis the toponym derives from a Mediterranean theme * karpa with the meaning of «rock». It was certainly an Etruscan landing place like the other Tyrrhenian islands in the 7th century, becoming a pirate base when it was occupied by the Romans.Important VFR point for approaching fron Nord airport Isola d'Elba.
Within the downloaded package you will find readme files for scenery installation. Good fly VFR. Pasquale Marrulli.

File Description:
3 repaints for Overland/Simmer's Sky A330-200 in Condor new livery. As these airplanes will leave after newly ordered A330-900 airplanes are added to the fleet, Condor decided to only paint the tails with their new and distinctive stripes.
The repaints included are D-AIYA "Island", D-AIYB "Sea" and D-AIYC "Sand".
Sergey Gleba's paint kit was utilized in part and VC cockpit textures were reworked for more immersion.

| Kimmirut CYLC on Baffin Island in Nunavut, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Kimmirut is a village of some 400 folks at the southern end of the southwest-facing coast of Baffin Island, 75 miles southwest of Iqaluit. It is on the northern side of the Hudson Strait between Baffin Island and Quebec, opposite Kangiqsujuaq on the Quebec shore. The airfield is served by two flights per week, one on Monday and another on Friday, only half fueled to be able to use the 1,899' of gravel 75' wide runway. The terminal building is small and there is a garage building for airport maintenance vehicles (snow clearing). There are some nearby buildings that I have included. The village is "represented" (not "modeled") with approximately the right shape and road layout. Take enough fuel so that you can leave again, as fuel is no longer for sale here. The Cape Dyer bgls are to make a small correction, it is explained in the text. I will not be posting new sceneries in the future and this is the last one for Avsim; it completes Baffin Island.

File Description:
Generic floating buildings have been replaced with custom and library objects. Landclass changes, roads, rework of runways, taxiways and aprons, placement of library objects and a library of new airport buildings are included. The control tower is unmanned, so the airport is uncontrolled. Scenery in this package is based on Virtual Earth (Bing) and Google Earth imagery.

| Friday Harbor Airport (KFHR) and Lopez Island (S31) |
|
File Description:
This package was made using Airport Design Editor 9x (ADE9x). It has two airports, Fridar Harbor and Lopez island. Both airports are located in the pacific northwest. At Friday Harbor (The default FSX airport) I replaced all the default buildings with more accurate ones. I added static aircraft on the ramp and cars in the parking lot. I also added parking to the northeast. Kenmore air flies to Friday Harbor and so I added gates for it to. For Lopez island, I put hangers and a few aircraft. The airport has some missing taxiways I added. Your scenery complexity can not be set to very sparse or nothing will show up. Please read the readme for instructions on how to install. This download is for Flight Simulator X only.
