File Description:
Dawson City is in the Yukon Territory, Canada, 140 miles south of Old Crow and about the same north of Whitehorse. The town has a population of just over 1,300 and is on the bank of the Yukon River; it is busy with nearby gold mining and tourism. There are regular flights by Air North, the Yukon airline, and I have included them in the AI along with ConAir and GA. Thanks go to Hernan for his Air North textures. The airport is beside the Klondike Highway that links Dawson City to Whitehorse, a few miles southwest of the town and the river. The runway approaches are steeper than most because of the surrounding hills and the Canada Flight Supplement notes that use is restricted to daylight hours, with some exceptions including emergencies. Runway 20 has right hand circuits. The runway is gravel and just over 5,000 feet long, aligned 02-20. There is a second apron for the activities of ConAir etc in the summer fire-fighting months. The "masts" are actually for fire hose drying; the ends of several 50 feet lengths are attached to a circular holder that is then pulled up to the top of the central pole.

File Description:
Representative scenery of RAF Little Rissington in Gloucestershire.
RAF Little Rissington (ICAO: EGVL) is an RAF aerodrome and former RAF station in Gloucestershire, England. It was once home to the Central Flying School, the Vintage Pair and the Red Arrows.
Built during the 1930s, the station was opened in 1938 and closed in 1994. The married-quarters and main technical site were sold in 1996 (the former becoming the village of Upper Rissington), but the aerodrome has been retained by the Ministry of Defence and remains active along with the southern technical sites, under the operational control of No.2 Flying Training School at RAFC Cranwell.
It is now home to 637 Volunteer Gliding Squadron as the primary military unit, who provide elementary flying training for Combined Cadet Force and Air Training Corps cadets. The airfield is also used by the forces as a relief landing ground, training area and parachute dropping area. In previous years, the Royal Air Force estate has been used as a film set, including The Avengers, part of the ice chase in Die Another Day, and the Thunderbirds film.
This scenery has been made using various scenery libraries, mainly from MAIW. Full listing in the docs.

| Watson Lake CYQH and CEJ9 in the Yukon Territories, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Watson Lake is at 2,200 feet asl on the east side of the Rockies, in the Yukon Territories. The town is less than five miles north of the border with BC and is built around Wye Lake, just a few miles southeast of the much larger Watson Lake. Whitehorse is some 200 miles to the west, and Fort Nelson 220 miles to the east. The airport was built during WW2 and there remains one surviving original hangar, along with later additions. Unusually, the town of Watson Lake came into being because of the airport's existence, though with the closure of one mine that the airport used to serve and the serial closure of another (closed four times?) both the airport and the town (population 500) are in a downward spiral. The airport is 5 miles to the west of the town. There were two runways, but one is now closed and the remaining one is 08-26, 5,500 feet and 150 feet wide. There are two aprons, the northern one being half-used by CL 415 fire-fighting planes (included in the AI, along with Central Mountain Air). All the buildings for CYQH are modeled specifically, but the CJE9 shed is a guess.

Images related to this file:
File Description:
This folder contains two repaints for Ant's DH-82 Tiger Moth Pro for P3DV4+. It shows two Tiger Moths of the Nelson Aero Club in New Zealand, ZK-AQA and ZK-AYE.
ZK-AQA, which was built in Hatfield and assembled in New Zealand in 1940 as NZ863. It was sold to a Mr. J. Reid in 1947. In 1950 it went to the Nelson Aero Club, and is shown in their service in this repaint. After several owners it wound up with the Auckland Gliding Club in 1961. In 1965, it crashed on take-off while towing a glider and it was damaged. Its remains were stored, but I'm not sure if they are still around.
ZK-AYE came from RAF stocks and was previously R4978.
It was built at Hatfield and assembled in NZ. It was shipped to New Zealand on "SS Rangitata" and BOC Unit 18 Rongotai 03 June 1940 and flew with No.3 EFTS, Harewood 1943-1944. After the war, it was issued free to Nelson Aero Club from Taieri on 15 September 1949 and entered the New Zealand Civil Aircraft Register as ZK-AYE on 02 February 1951. It was sold to A. Blechynden on 28 October 1957. The transfer was not notified to the CAA who cancelled it from the register on 28 November 1957. It rejoined the register with the new allocated registration of ZK-BVK in January 1958 and went to W. Scottof Karangahua in 1958. Unfortunately, it broke up in flight 10 miles north of Otorohanga on 07 May 1958 killing pilot and passenger. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by Anthony Lynch

| FS2004/FSX/P3D Overseas National - ONA DC-6A 1959 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a repaint of the Douglas DC-6A (CB17 model) in Overseas National Airways - ONA 1959 colors. The freeware CalClassic DC-6A CB-17 model by Greg Pepper and Tom Gibson is needed for this repaint. ONA was originally formed in 1950 by George Tompkins to undertake overseas contracts on behalf of the USAF. Douglas DC-4s were initially used, with DC-6s joining them later. However, due to underbidding on contracts, ONA declared itself bankrupt on October 29 1963. After this, the airline was extensively re-organized and began operations once again in October 1965, with a fleet of 7 DC-7s. Soon after, in June and July 1966 the airline's first jetliners joined the fleet in the form of DC-8-50Fs. After a 1966 ruling by the CAB, ONA was granted permission to undertake inclusive tour charters, affinity group charters, and single entity charters to transatlantic and Caribbean markets. This was a godsend to the airline and it started to become quite profitable. Over the next decade, the fleet expanded to include: L-188s, DC-8-61/63CFs, DC-8-20/30s, DC-9-30s, and the granddaddy of them all; the DC-10-30CF. During the winter of 1975/76 tragedy struck. Two ONA DC-10s were lost in accidents in the space of two months (November 1975 & January 1976). This was a major blow to the airline and its image. This, coupled with financial difficulties, led the the filing of its second bankruptcy on September 7, 1978. That was the final nail in the coffin. This repaint is on DC-6A N660NA, which joined the airline in 1958, ans was sold to AAXICO in 1961. Textures are 32bit bmp. This repaint was tested on FSX-SE and should work on FSX, P3D v1-3, & FS2004.

| FSX/P3D TAI DC-3 1962 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a repaint of the DC-3 in TAI (Transports Aeriens Intercontinentaux) colors. The freeware DC-3/C-47 v3 by Manfred Jahn is needed for this repaint. In 1946 the French government allowed the creation of some independent air carriers. On June 1 of that year TAI (Transports Aeriens Internationaux) was formed, and was based in Orly, France. Flights began on July 1, with a Junkers Ju-52. The following year they purchased 7 ex KLM DC-4s, along with 3 Bristol 170 freighters. In 1954 DC-6Bs started to replace the DC-4s. Their route network serviced mainly Africa, the Far East, the French Pacific territories, and Australasia. Prior to 1956 their network wa mainly in Africa, and Asia. On May 6, 1960, a partnership was formed with Air France, whereby TAI flew the South Pacific leg of the state carrier’s around the world service via New Caledonia and Tahiti. Later, on September 4 1960, TAI began a Douglas DC-8-32 service from Paris to Darwin via Athens, Teheran, Karachi, Bangkok, Phnom Penh, and Saigon, and on September 12, it inaugurated a route from Sydney to Los Angeles via Noumea, Nandi, Papeete, and Honolulu with the DC-8. On September 14 1961, TAI agreed, in principle, to a future merger with Union Aeromaritime de Transport (UAT). The two airlines integrated their schedules in 1962 and the amalgamation of TAI and UAT was completed on October 1, 1963, resulting in a new airline: UTA (Union de Transports Aeriens). This DC-3, F-BGXN, flew for TAI from 1956 to 1959. Textures are DXT5. This repaint was tested on FSX-SE and should work on FSX & P3D v1-3.

File Description:
Textures for Tom Gibson's Douglas DC-6A - repainted by Manfred Meyer.
You need to download and install the latest Douglas DC-6A CB-16 base pack with model(use the model with Propspinners), sound and panel from the website calclassic.com.
These textures depict N96BL (c/n 43574) of Aerial Transit. Harold Bellomy and Charles Lawson founded 1963 the Bellomy & Lawson Company in Miami FL, buying DC-6 aircrafts an convert them to pure freighters. They run Challenge Air Transport and sold this airline 1982. Then they started 1983 a part 121 operation under the trading name "Aerial Transit" and ceased operations in 1991. The DC-6 aircrafts of aerial Transit, flying throughout the Caribbean and Central America and were often leased out to other operators of the region. N96BL was built 1952 as C-118A and delivered to the USAF as 51-3827. In 1976 bought by Bellomy & Lawson and registered as N3492F the aircraft served with Challenge AT and re-registered as N96BL from october 1983 until 1991 with Aerial Transit. Aerial Transits DC-6 always looking a little bit shabby and when flying this aircraft, keep in mind it has no pressurisation and no superchargers. So if you are forced to go above 10 000 ft take some oxygen bottles with you!

| Mackenzie CYZY in British Columbia, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Mackenzie is around 120 miles west of Peace River and the BC/Alberta border, at the southern end of Williston Lake. The lake is 135 miles long and the population of the town is about 3,500; those figures illustrate typical Canada, a huge area enjoyed by the few. The main occupations relate to timber and mining in some form, plus tourism (in particular winter sports tourism). The airport is 2 miles southwest of the town, with no regular scheduled flights but it is not unusual to find Central Mountain Air there delivering either charter passengers or freight. The single runway is aligned 16-34 and 100 feet wide lit asphalt that is just over 5,000 feet long, with (in 2010 or so) an additional 1,500 feet of gravel. There is PAPI at both ends of the asphalt. The largest operation based at the airfield is a helicopter company, at the northern end of the apron. There is a "mandatory frequency" of 123.5 which is a Canadian invention; you MUST have a radio. There is no control tower at the actual airfield, and if or when there is no response from further afield then you announce your intentions etc. In FS9 there is no way to "switch off or on" the monitoring of a MF radio frequency so you will find that this one is always silent.

| Su-34 (Su-27IB) Fighter Bomber |
|
File Description:
The Su-34 (also known as Su-27IB) fighter bomber has been developed by the Sukhoi Design Bureau Joint Stock Company in Moscow and the Novosibirsk Aircraft Production Association at Novosibirsk in Russia. First deliveries of the fighter bomber are expected to begin in 2005 and it is planned as a replacement for Su-24 and Su-25 aircraft. Su-34 is one of a number of Russian aircraft (Su-27, Su-30, Su-33 and Su-35) which have been given the NATO codename Flanker. The Su-34 fighter bomber is a derivative of the Su-27 fighter aircraft. The aircraft design retains the basic layout and construction of the Su-27 airframe, with a conventional high-wing configuration and a substantial part of the onboard equipment. The Su-34 has a changed contour of the nose section to accommodate an advanced multi-mode phased array radar with terrain following and terrain avoidance modes. It has a two-seat rather than single-seat cockpit. The capacity of the internal fuel tanks has been increased with a resulting increased take-off weight. Changes have been made to the central tail boom for a rear-facing radar. This model of the Su-34 for X-Plane version 6.30 includes two air-to-air missile types, the R-27, and R-73. Once downloaded, install the missiles into your weapons folder.
