| Little Port Walter for Holger Sandmann's Tongass Fjords scenery |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a second fish farm at the southern end of Baranof Island and Chatham Strait in southern Alaska. Big Port Walter is named on the chart of the area, and there is a section of the chart included here. Little Port Walter is a much smaller offshoot bay, sheltered from the weather and ideal for a fish farm. This scenery is designed specifically for use in the Tongass Fjord scenery. I may have incorrectly identified Tongass Fjords as being required for Hawk Logging when Glacier Bay is needed. Ah well, it is one or the other of them. The fish farm (or hatchery, the description varies) has an identifying code so it will show up on a gps as PWL. There is no interaction with atc as there are no designated water runways, so PWL on the gps just acts as a waypoint. There will be further posts for use with Tongass Fjords, Misty Fjords, and Glacier Bay, and I still find these scenery areas by Holger and his crew the most satisfying in FS9.

| Howick Airfield (FAHC), South Africa |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This package will add a custom (Gmax) made Howick Airfield (FAHC), KwaZulu Natal, South Africa with photoreal textures and seasonal ground textures.
Howick is a small town in the KwaZulu Natal Midlands just off the N3 freeway which connects Johannesburg and Durban and home to the famous Howick waterfall. The Umgeni river falls 95m (311 ft) over the cliffs on the way to the Indian Ocean. The town is also home to the Midmar dam. This dam is very well known as being the location of the annual Midmar Mile swimming event which, in 2009, was recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's largest open water swimming event with 13 755 competitors taking part.
The sloped grass runway is aligned 16/34 and 825m long and sits at an elevation of 3 615ft. Both runways have obstacles on the approach, with powerlines 730m from the threshold of runway 16, while runway 34's approach have hills around 900m before the threshold. The sloped runway has been created in FS2004 within the limits of the simulator itself.

| A1 Spec. SL-1 |
|
File Description:
The Sealiner 1 A1 Special is a small amphibian jet, capable of landing both on land and water as well as other tough terrain, This iarcraft boasts 6 compact low bypass jet engines, The plane also has a nice and simple cockpit design, so simple this is a perfect plane for any first time pilot. Not only is it fast and user friendly but it is safe with a huge chute on it, it can slow this plane down to landing speed in seconds. Unlike the VTOL aircraft I built before this plane is much smaller and this is reflected in the amount of payload it can carry, but there is a good reason for this. This airplane was designed to service small islands (mainly in the south pacific) where before a boat would have had to been taken if one decided to leave, so with the SL-1 them and 20 other people can fly commerical airline style almost anywhere! In the future look for another engine to be added.

| Simple Instructions for Modifying Land Class |
|
File Description:
Simple Instructions for Modifying Land Class
Land classification, or land class (NOT "landclass"), is how Flight Simulator depicts the ground textures. For much of the FS world, the ground is not representative of the real thing, however. There have been complaints because of this from those who do not understand the cause of the problem.
This document explains the basic concepts behind the land class system, why it is inevitably inaccurate for most of the world, and the very easy-to-use tools with which to fix this.
Also includes instructions for modifying water class.
This is an html document for universal compatibility.
You do not have to be a computer programmer in order to change the land class. Anyone can do it quickly and easily.
So, why complain about it? Do something!
Very sorry - no support of any kind is offered for this document. Please consult the AvSim Scenery Design forum for any questions.

| Minstrel Island CAX7 float base in British Columbia, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is the third in a series of new and renovated float bases in BC. Minstrel Island is on the south side of Knight Inlet and 25 miles west of Knight Inlet Lodge (the previous post in this series). There is a resort on the island, though it is hidden from the air by the trees. Fuel and oil are both available at the dock, and there is a 17 feet tidal range, which would be interesting of it could be replicated in FS. The AI is an adaptation of that for CF36 and involves a GA Cessna, and a Seair Beaver flying from Campbell River to Knight Inlet Lodge via Minstrel Island. Again, because of large hills the landing of the AI may or may not take place, depending on wind direction and whether or not they fly into solid rock before landing. Take off and departure will take place. Ultimate Terrain Alaska/Canada would be a definite plus to get the water in the right shape and place. This scenery will not work without it.

| DX10 Shader Fixers V3.2.3 |
|
File Description:
DX10 Shader Fixes V3.2.3. These are a set of shader fixes for DX10 Preview mode in FSX. The patch should not effect DX9 in any way. It addresses the following bugs in the DX10 preview:
1) Flashing runways/taxiways
2) Yellow/white runway markings transparency
3) Opaque chain fences
4) Progressive Taxi markings missing
5) Missing night scenery/semi-transparent dusk scenery (often misdescribed as missing night textures)
6) Some addon cars with black headlights
7) Softer VC shadow
8) Eliminates false sun on VC roof and side wall
9) ORBX FTX Global lights with black background rectangles fixed
Also included are an optional replacement water shade, aircraft lights package and an optional replacement background texture. This can replace the light blue DX10 uses and is close to what DX9 uses in the same circumstances.
With Steve Parson's permission I have updated the shader_release_v3.2.2 patch to shader_release_v3.2.3 to now include a fix for DX10 ORBX FTX Global Lights.

| PAKT Ketchikan International, Alaska, USA |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Googlyafcad A&F Data file for Ketchikan International based on Google Earth satellite
data - a small but relatively busy airport located in one of the wettest parts of
Alaska, USA. Ketchikan is Alaska's fifth largest city, with its economy based on
salmon fishing.
For some curious reason the facilities provided in Flight Simulator 2004 omit a crucial
taxiway at the west end of the airport, causing all traffic to taxi from the opposite
end. These files redress this issue, and also provide realistic levels of parking for
commercial and general aviation traffic, allowing you and your "AI" traffic to land,
taxi, park and take off in a realistic manner. The layout has been cunningly designed
to fit both with the Flight Simulator default scenery and version 2 of Alan Wright's
enhanced scenery (paktv2.zip on AVSIM) and is compatible with both in every respect.
Apart from conventional and water-based general aviation aircraft Ketchikan International
is regularly served by commercial flights of Alaska Airlines and by smaller operators
such as Alaska Central Express, Everts Air Alaska and LAB Flying Service. [File re-uploaded at request of AVSIM]

| The Hawaiian Islands - Kauai, Part 1 of 5 |
|
File Description:
The complete scenery package is 446MB in size. In order to accommodate AvSim's file size requirement, this scenery has been broken into five smaller files. However, all five files -- Hawaii-Kauai-RS-01.zip through Hawaii-Kauai-RS-05.zip -- are necessary for this scenery to work properly. My apologies in advance for the added complexity this involves. "Hawaii-Kauai-RS-01" includes a ReadMe with detailed instructions on how to install this scenery.
Kauai itself is the fourth largest of the main Hawaiian Islands. Also known as the "Garden Isle" due to it's lush tropical foliage, it is located about 105 miles (170 kilometers) west of Oahu and just to the east of tiny Niihau. The east side of Mount Wai'ale'ale is considered to be one of the wettest spots on earth receiving an average annual rainfall of 460 inches (1,200 cm). All that water has carved out deep valleys in the central mountains, the most scenic of which is Waimea Canyon, often referred to as "The Grand Canyon of the Pacific". From shoreline cliffs to mountainous heights, to pristine beaches, enjoy exploring this picture postcard perfect landscape.
