File Description:
Textures only for Caledonian Airways 1961 DC-7C "Star of Robbie Burns" and Caledonian Airways 1962 DC-7C "Flagship Bonnie Scotland". You must have the DC-7C base back installed to fly this aircraft. That can be downloaded at www.calclassic.com. Caledonian Airways leased one SABENA DC-7C in the fall of 1961 and began flights in November, 1961 with G-ARUD "Star of Robbie Burns". That aircraft crashed in April of 1962 during takeoff at Douala, Cameroon. The cause turned out to be malfunctioning elevator spring tabs. Douglas had warned the airlines to fix these spring tabs, but for some reason or another SABENA did not do the work, and Caledonian didn't know about the airworthiness directive. A few weeks after the crash, Caledonian leased another SABENA DC-7C, G-AYRE "Flagship Bonnie Scotland" to resume flights. Caledonian flew out of Prestwick, Scotland, but London Gatwick was their main hub as far as traffic was concerned. These early 1961 and 1962 flights served secondary European cities with safari flights to Africa, pre-packaged flights to holiday destinations like Barbados and Jamaica, and low cost flights to and from North America.

| Hicks Farm Field CF12 near Ottawa in Ontario, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Hicks Farm is in Ontario and around 8 miles west of Rideau Valley Airpark CPL3 (which did not appear in FS9, probably because it was then mainly used by gliders, but is a post of mine). CPL3 is 15 miles south of Ottawa Airport, tucked into a right angle bend of the Rideau River. Ultimate Terrain puts the river into place, and I am not sure of how or if either CPL3 or CF12 work without UT, maybe somebody can let me know. Fly west from CPL3 along the river and Hicks Farm will be on the south side. It has a (mainly) grass runway 34/16 with a section of asphalt and totals some 5,500 feet overall. Alan, the owner of Hicks Farm, is in his mid 80's and was told last year that his insurance company no longer felt comfortable with him flying his Lear off a farm strip. The result of his enforced retirement from flying his Lear is that the grass has been allowed to take over somewhat, though there is still sufficient space to land most single engine light aircraft.

File Description:
WASHINGTON X DEMO features an extremely detailed scenery of large area of Washington, Dstrict of Columbia, United States, fully compatible with FSX, FSX STEAM, P3D v1/v2/v3/v4 and FSW by Dovetail.
With this product you are free to fly to any of 5 airports (KDCA, KCGS, KADW, KVKX, W32) and many heliports in the area, admire some of the world-renowned landmarks like Capitol or Pentagon, or simply pay a visit to The President of the United States.
This Demo version of the commercial product is a fully functional freeware scenery, featuring same airport layout as in the full version but with limited 3D objects and low resolution textures. This ensures no problems with online (VATSIM, IVAO and multiplayer) flying in case some users have the payware scenery and some don't.
It's equipped with an automatic installer, which means that the scenery will be automatically added to the Flight Simulator Scenery Library.
Please uninstall all previous versions of the above-mentioned airports you may have installed before. Please make also sure that no duplicated AFCAD files are installed.
Enjoy your virtual flying with Drzewiecki Design!

| Whakatane Airport (NZWK), New Zealand |
|
File Description:
Whakatane Airport (ICAO: NZWK) is a small airport serving the town of Whakatane in the Bay of Plenty, New Zealand. It consists of a Asphalt runway flanked with a parallel grass strip and a helipad. While not a particularly busy aerodrome, there are daily movements by Air New Zealand/Eagle Airways Beech 1900Ds, general aviation movements including agricultural aircraft, training flights from the flight school and scenic flights to White Island off the coast of the Bay of Plenty.
Of particular interest is the main terminal, designed by Roger Walker in the modernist style. It has survived in its original form since its construction in the 1970’s and gives a cheerful welcome to visitors disembarking to discover the many natural and cultural attractions in the region.
This particular airport is of interest to me as I began my real world flying training there originally with Scott Air and later with Air Discovery (www.airdiscovery.co.nz) As well as flight training, they also fly scenic tours of White Island and Mount Tarawera.
This Scenery Features: High resolution 10cm imagery for the airport including night map, Custom made buildings including night lighting and window reflections, extensive trees and grass.

| Active ILS - KMIA v2.0 |
|
File Description:
UPDATED KMIA see the readme file -- By design KMIA is now the most advanced ATC controlled airport in the FS9 database. As most know initiating the ILS at certain airports for AI Traffic is not a function at this time when using AFCAD2. If you add a new ILS runway to an airport such as KMIA (Miami International Airport 8L/26R) only the user aircraft can use this runway when visibility falls below 3 miles. ATC will no longer use this runway for AI Traffic because FS9 sees it as a visual runway. This will cause ATC to vector your AI Traffic back to 9L/27R (old numbers) 8R/26L (new numbers) which is also a Terminal departure runway. All 4 runways for KMIA are now simultaneously active for both departure and arrival. The many options (written in the XML compiled to bgl) are to numerous to list for KMIA so follow the instructions in the README and just sit back (or fly) and plane spot either VMC or IMC for a very active airport. *** FlyTampa-Miami Scenery AFCAD2 and special ILS bgl also updated and included ***

| FSX Metal GUI |

File Description:
I designed this for myself to darken the default User Interface for 2 reasons. I have bad eyes that are sensitive to bright objects on the screen, and I like to fly the simulator in the evening hours with the lights turned off in the room. I hope you like my end result.
I also added 2 bonus features. Instead of hearing the Windows/Internet Explorer click sound when you mouse click on a menu item, you now will hear the "Fasten Seatbelts" sound effect. Be sure to back up the original sound "checkc" in case you find the new sound annoying. Secondly, I have included 4 optional Aircraft Viewer images that give the selected aircraft a more airborne look. I will make switching these simple by adding them to the Generic Mod Enabler(JSGME) that I will include in the download.
The look is created using Diamond Plate and Polished Aluminum textures, and modifying the buttons with some more color.
This is Freeware, and I am giving permission to anyone that wants to create their own and upload to any site they wish. I do not wish that you have to mention my name in any credits.

Nick Karatzides also made an accurate checlist for FS purposes and the VERY completed flight manual (38 pages) which can be read with Adobe Acrobat. This "F-4E_HAF_v1.zip" package is for EXPERIENCED FlightSimers and virtual pilots who have a "good feeling" on the controls and do not "kick" the contol stick while flying...(no mistakes allowed especialy during landing phase!) It is for people who want to know how it looks to fly with a modern fighter. The package contains visual effects, night lighting, fine looking mechanical parts movement, smoke contrails, realistic gears extracting / retracting etc.

| Boeing B-17G "Sally B" G-BEDF |
|
File Description:
This is a repaint only for the FSX Wings of Power II Boeing B-17G Flying Fortress, in the markings of "Sally B", the UK's last remaining airworthy B-17. One of the last Flying Fortress built at the Lockheed-Vega plant in Burbank, California, this aircraft was delivered new to the USAAF on June 19, 1945. Later, it was operated as a mapping surveyor in France before being brought to England in March 1975. In 1982, Ted White, the man who was responsible for bringing the aircraft to England, was tragically killed when his Harvard crashed at an air rally in Malta. In memory of Ted White, the inner starboard cowling will always be painted in yellow and black checkers, the same way Ted White's Harvard cowling was painted. For the past 31 years, "Sally B" has continued to fly, under the leadership of Elly Sallingboe and with the help of a dedicated team of volunteers. In 1990, "Sally B" played lead role in the movie "Memphis Belle," and continues to wear the same scheme she did during filming, with the exception of the Sally B nose art and checkered cowling.
