Slick Airways DC-4 Repaint

File Description:
Slick Airways DC-4 This is Jens Kristensen's model repainted by Dave McQueen, May, 2006, textures only.The original aircraft is available at www.Avsim.com. You must download and install his DC-4 model for FS2004 to use these files. Look for DC4_V10.zip. Slick Airways was founded in San Antonio, Texas in January 1946 by Earl F. Slick. It began operations in March 1946 using ten Curtiss C-46s. Slick became a scheduled freight carrier in 1949. Slick nearly merged with the Flying Tiger Line in 1953 but the merger fell through. Slick provided transcontinental service and also flew contracts for the US military. But the airline failed financially and in 1966 Airlift International (Riddle) took over the assets of Slick. Slick flew C46, DC4, DC6, L1049 and CL44 equipment.

Val-U-Prop C-54 With Photographic Surround Panel

File Description:
Based on the brilliantly night-lit, fully animated Dc4 of Tom Gibson and Harry Follas and Hans Hermann, this package includes flight dynamics (by Brian Horsey) selected for excellent stability, easy handling and landing. The plane really flies great - and the panel is photographic, using the photography of Thomas Klein for main cockpit and pilot's side views; Janathan Derden's very metallic wing views; and the vintage C-54 cabin was photographed by Miguel Snoep.It has military capability, including machine guns and NUCLEAR/GPS/JDAM guided bomb launch. Panel includes everything on main panel, except for GPS and (optional) default radios, so there is no tabbing. The very aluminal wing views were shot by Thomas Klein, Gauges by James Underwood, Ernie Kennedy and Dai Griffiths. A-bomb and machine guns by Chris Trotter. All of this brought to you by Val-U-Prop.

File Description:
Nenana is a village on the river of the same name around 40 miles west of Fairbanks, which is the second largest urban area in Alaska after Anchorage. Nenana, as a result of this proximity, is served by road and railway and unlike other Alaskan villages is not reliant on air cargo for necessities. The current population is just under 400, which is way down from its peak of 5,000 in the 1920's when gold was being mined and the railroad being built. Nenana's main claim to fame is as the starting point for the 1925 mushing delivery to Nome of the serum to combat an outbreak of diphtheria. Any Nenana Municipal Airport history is difficult to find, even the date of construction. It has two runways 3L-21R and 3R-21L, the first being asphalt and just under 5,000 feet with PAPI at both ends, the second grass and 1,800 feet. Both are lit. It also has a further water runway similarly aligned and 3,000 feet long. Maintenance is available and there is also fuel at the end of the northern apron, close to the crashed and stripped DC4 that sits among other unwanted items that are too large to make it worth the cost of moving them off the site. There are no regular scheduled flights to the airport, with air taxi or owner operated being in the majority. The scenery, in addition to the terrain, town, bridges, and airport items also modifies the terrain in an area further south where FS9 depicted as a city an Air Force base that is mainly concerned with radar and communications and in fact has very few buildings. The AI includes some Beavers on floats that were used in previous BC scenery with the kind permission of FSAddon. As I have already posted them I have not included them again here. The float plane AI uses the same radio frequency as the land based planes, but they fly to PANX and not to PANN as FS9 has problems with getting floats and wheels separated. Or maybe I just haven't worked out how to cope with FS9. 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.
