| Forggensee, v2 Update |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This UPDATE enhances the existing Forggensee Water-Airport(EDAF).
Klaus Jone did a magnificent job in creating this scenery for us flightsimmers, and my enhancements do NOT alter any Scenery Objects by Klaus Jone. The buildings are the same. And the number of AI planes and ships are unchanged.
My enhancements modify the BEHAVIOR of the Ships.
But the floatplane traffic is so superbly programmed that no further modifications are necessary.
Mr. Klaus Jone passed away in May 2009, and it is my intention to preserve Forggensee pretty much as HE designed it. Except for modifying the BEHAVIOR of the AI traffic, to spread it out to cover the entire area of Lake Forggensee. As the screenshots I've included illustrate.
Naturally, these updated files require that Forggensee Part 1 and Part 2 are ALREADY installed in your FS2004. My part here was to perform a few tweaks to make the AI traffic spread out all over Lake Forggensee, and ensure that ALL wake/spray effects are visible. As Klaus Jone stated: "There is some amazing traffic on the lake, have a look and have fun!"

| Active ILS, VHHX (Hong Kong Kai Tak Airport) |
|
File Description:
This FSX Airport is more then just an enhanced style Airport. As most know the Approach and Final (VMC) for AI Traffic in FSX is a straight in type landing and does not always consider real world approaches. This is due to the way that the coding is written in FSX and it puts limits on IFR arriving aircraft. At certain airports the AI Traffic will fly directly through a mountain once it is established on Final for a runway. What you will see with my files is a different type approach used for both the way I control AI and User Airplane Traffic in FSX. My AI Aircraft Approach coding system for FSX uses a visual offset approach so AI Traffic does not fly through the mountains but flys the IGS/LDA 13 approach to the Checkerboard. Try your skill flying a Large Heavy Airplane vectored by ATC onto the approach course of the IGS/LDA 13 approach to Kai Tak. Read the text file for all the enhancements added to the FSX VHHX Airport along with a full understanding of how the new Approaches work *** Full set of Freeware Approach Charts included ***

| FS Recorder 1.3 for FSX |
|
File Description:
FS Recorder is an add-on module available for FS2004 and FSX. It allows recording and playback of flights, similar as the instant replay and video recorder built into FS, but with a lot more features. The recorded flights can be played back either using the user's aircraft or as AI traffic, which allows you to fly formations with yourself. A number of settings allow to customize FS Recorder to your needs. The recorded flights are saved in a binary file format containing flight data and can thus only be played back inside FS. These files are no video files, so it is NOT possible to play them with a video or media player, or to convert them into video files.
Features: recording flights of unlimited length * optional recording and playback of AI traffic * playback of one or multiple recordings as AI traffic * recording new flight during playback as traffic * replay of the last minutes, even if no recording was started * jumping and searching during playback * playback control via keyboard or control window * stop playback at any position to continue manually * loop part of a recording * change playback speed * custom keyboard controls * recorded data is customizable.

| Odense Airport (EKOD), Funen, Denmark |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Odense Lufthavn (Odense Airport) is situated close the village of Beldringe, a few km north of Odense, the main city on the island of Funen, Denmark. Like several other Danish airports it was established as an airbase by the Germans during World War II. It was taken over by the Danish state after the war and owned by the state until 1998, at which time it was taken over by a consortium of local authorities, including the city of Odense.
Since the opening of the Great Belt Lin in 1997 there has been no regular passenger flights, apart from some charter traffic during the summer season. But there is a lot of traffic with one- and two-motor craft (including rotor craft) due to the many companies based in the airport.
The package is a complete scenery of the airport, including a few buildings around it. It includes approach lights, runway lights, taxiway lights and light on the apron, the car parking area and the surrounding roads. A traffic file with the (limited) charter traffic of the airport is also included.

| Canadian and Northern USA Winter Flying |
|
File Description:
This is an expanded version of a previous post a year ago, and stretches from east of Quebec City through Quebec, Ontario, and Manitoba, and now also through Saskatchewan, and into Alberta (past Calgary). There is also a northern area roughly centered on Hudson Bay. The exact coverages are given in the notes. All rivers and lakes within the area will "freeze" and allow ski planes to land, or even wheeled planes come to that. And it is not permanent, when you want to go back to floats just "untick" it in the FS library, and it will melt. The area covered crosses into the US too, down to around 45 degrees north, so that means most of Montana, all of North Dakota, half of Minnesota, and some of Wisconsin, Michigan etc. It seemed silly to stop at the border. Ultimate Terrain is highly recommended, so that there will actually be the right lakes and rivers ready to freeze.

| KSGU-Saint George, Utah |
|
File Description:
The 6600' long St. George airport in southwestern Utah sits high on a mesa! You grasp your armrest hoping that you will become airborne before you fall off the cliff...Or just after landing you are nervously waiting for the pilot to apply the brakes as the end of the runway rushes up to meet you before you fall into nothingness! Such is the fate that awaits the pilot or passenger that ventures to the Saint George, Utah airport.
Actually, it is a very safe and delightful airport to base your flights from. Visit Southern Utah and see the many sights that await the adventurous soul. Take a trip from KSGU to Moab-KCNY or KVEL and marvel at the diversity of the landscape. ( I upgraded those 2 airports also.)
While designed for use with Ultimate Terrain, this enhancement should work with the default FS2004 setting. Please unzip to a temporary folder and follow the simple installation instructions.

| Talkeetna Village AK44 in Alaska, home of Don Sheldon's Talkeetna Air Service |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Talkeetna is around 75 miles north of Anchorage in Alaska on the east shore of the Susitna River. The town is where Don Sheldon got off the train in 1938, and where, ten years later, he started Talkeetna Air Services. There are two airfields in Talkeetna, PATK with its long asphalt runway and Talkeetna Village AK44 in the middle of the town. This is AK44; the default FS version with Ultimate Terrain installed had the runway half in the river, but there is still space for the 900 feet of runway that is described in the book "Wager With The Wind" that tells Don's story. The result is a step back in time to 1973, when the second hangar was built. If you also want to install PATK do a search. I have partially populated the village with cabins, and UT is probably required for the river to be there; I haven't tested this without it.

| Frozen rivers and lakes for winter ski operations along the Canada/USA border and Alaska |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This "freezes" lakes and rivers in a wide strip along both sides of the Canadian and US border and part of Alaska (and is reversible with a tick in the FS9 library) and can be landed on with skis or wheels for winter operations. The area covered is from east of Quebec City to west of Calgary and Edmonton, with an extension north to cover Hudson Bay, so from from 70 west to 100 west and 40 north to 56 north (65 north in the Hudson Bay area). This includes large parts of Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota, and most of North Dakota and Montana, and the Alaska north shore and around Anchorage.
This is really for use with Ultimate Terrain, though it will work without it. But as UT is what gets all the lakes and rivers there and in the right place it would be a shame not to be using UT.

| Williams Lake CYWL |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Founded in 1860, Williams Lake is located in the beautiful central British Columbia region known as the Cariboo. With a population of about 11,000, Williams Lake is the largest urban center between Kamloops and Prince George. The airport has one 7,000' (2,100m) runway and is served by Central Mountain Air and Pacific Coastal Airways.
This complete rebuild of CYWL features all new taxiways, aprons and buildings, an accurate custom terminal building, and the usual fences, trees, ramp objects, etc. Many thanks to Shawn Lund, Air Attack Officer, BC Wildfire Management Branch, Kamloops Fire Centre, for the photos of the terminal building and his permission to use them. Included are the Nav Canada aerodrome diagram and the two instrument approach plates. (These approach plates are out of date and obviously NOT for real world use.)
This scenery was designed for use with Ultimate Terrain and was not tested in the default scenery. It may or may not work in FSX.
