CYLW - Kelowna International Airport / Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada
This airport update was made with the latest version of ADE (Airport Design Editor) and made for FSX as a replacement for the stock (default) airport. I found that most stock airports in FSX lack a decent amount of character and realism and I've done my best to correct that wherever possible. I've made several additions to the airport which are listed below. All these enchancements are as close to the real airport as I can get with stock library objects. I've used satellite images, terminal photos and maps throughout the whole process so building locations are as accurate as possible. Happy landings in the beautiful Canada!
Features:
*Expanded parking apron
*Main terminal building with it's 8 gates some with jetways
*Seperate parking aprons for GA traffic
*Runway accurately expanded to 8,900ft to reflect 2008 runway project
*Hangar and other airport buildings added
*Airport vehicles and objects throughout the airport
*Main road in front of airport added with static vehicles
*Parking lots with static vehicles
*Airport fire station with fire trucks
*Static de-icing vehicles & runway plow
*2 Helipads
(Next up: CYWG Winnipeg Intl Airport)

| Airfield Lights Toolbox (AFLT) |
|
File Description:
Airfield Lights Toolbox (or AFLT for short) is a comprehensive utility for the creation of standard airfield lights and light arrays for Microsoft Flight Simulator and Prepare3D v1.4 (collectively referred to as "FlightSim") airports. AFLT includes 3D models for the usual airfield light fixtures (runway/taxiway edge and centerline lights, runway threshold/end split lights, obstruction lights and beacons, PAPI/VASIs, wigwags and various approach light configurations) from which you should be able to create just about any airfield light arrangement. AFLT generates complete approach and threshold light arrays (including strobes) based on simple text configuration files. As well, pilot-control of airfield lighting is fully implemented.
The light sources in AFLT's light models are BGL_LIGHTs. Unfortunately, P3D Version 2 does not (yet) support BGL_LIGHTs and does not provide any alternative. (We had hoped that v2.1 would have fixed this, but "no joy". Hopefully, Lockheed Martin will see fit to rectify this deficiency.) Consequently, AFLT is only "P3Dv2-ready".
ALFT is not a library of airfield lights; it is a utility for creating object libraries and light arrays. A general knowledge of FlightSim scenery file organization and airport design is necessary for its use.

| 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 ***

File Description:
Here's another Dash-8 especially for the Icelandic simmers out there or those who prefer the challenge of simming the skies and airports of the northernmost latitudes. This is one of two (2) Dash 8-106's flown by Air Iceland (Icelandic: Flugfelag Islands) and bears registration TF-JMB. Flugfelag Islands, a subsidiary of Icelandair Group, is a regional airline with bases at Reykjavik Airport and Akureyri Airport. It operates scheduled service to destinations in Iceland and Greenland, as well as the Faroe Islands. I want to give due credit to and thank Elmar Voigt, who inspired this project and repaint and worked with me to get every detail of it as realistic as possible. Some of those details include the text 'flugfelag.is' on the bottom of the fuselage (just like the real aircraft) and a tug painted in Air Iceland/Flugfelag Islands colors with their logo on the doors. All repainted textures in this package are 32-bit with no mips for maximum quality. This is a textures only package; you must have the Dreamwings Design Dash8 Q-100 model available here at AVSIM.

| Puerto Rico AI Package |
|
File Description:
This archive contains repaints and fictional flightplans for a variety of aircraft that operate in Puerto Rico. There are textures for Corporate Air Embraer 120s (5), the Air Flamenco Fleet of Islanders, MN Aviation Cessna C208Bs, Vieques Air Link Islanders, Linear Air C208Bs, CapCana C208Bs, the blue Roblex Islander "El Bebe", some Air Tahoma Convairs and a USDOJ SAAB2000 that operates repatriation flights and prisoner transport. There's also the CIA ATR42 that operates flights around the Caribbean and into Guantanamo Bay. Some seasonal aircraft are also here (operating to St Barths in the high season), these have a variety of real-world private registrations and there's the Islander N555DM too. There is alsoa PR Government (natural Resources) C208B. There are also afcads for the airports in PR, some more accurate than others. Many of these airplanes operate out of Aguadilla or Isla Grande (TJIG).
The flightplans also reference some aircraft available elsewhere on Avsim (other Vieques paints for example, and the Roblex SD360). Some flightplans are also separated out by airline if you want to install thems separately using the MRAI installer (Corporate Air, Vieques and Air Flamenco).

| Airbus A318 FD Special Version V2 |
|

File Description:
After my initial work on the Project airbus A318 (V1.2) and on the project Airbus A319 (A319 Special Version V2), I present my special version of the Project Airbus A318 Version 2, which includes many improvements and new features.
The instrument panel has been adapted of the Stefan Liebe work, on which I have added many changes. I created a vertical navigation gauge (VNAV gauge) which manages automatically the climb of the aircraft like a FMC (it can be work in several stage), with pre-programmed data according the weight of the aircraft and the altitude. The autopilot is constant MACH, with a transition altitude of 25000ft, thus avoiding the risk of overspeed. The ND will display information page in real time on the flight plan, an information page on the destination airport and display the radar map of the terrain, with AI traffic in real time.
All instruments are active in the VC and 2D panel. The instruments were completed by a multitude of small details. I have improved the autolanding function, with a soft landing (rounded). There is a complete operating manual in PDF format, in English and in French. Of course, TOGA mode and Autobrake mode works. Only compatible with FSX SP2 or Acceleration. See the readme file and the user manual for information and copyright. This version is also a big upgrade on the A318 special version 1.0 and 1.2. This is not an update, but a new aircraft.

File Description:
Ft. Worth Alliance Airport opened in 1989 and was billed as the world's first purely industrial airport. It is located around 14 miles North of the central business district of Ft. Worth and is also nearby the Dallas/Ft. Worth International Airport (KDFW). The airport serves general aviation, corporate jet, cargo, and military air traffic on a daily basis and it's proximity to the Texas Motor Speedway (only a few miles) brings extra dense traffic on race weekends. The airport is home to the American Airlines 777 and 767 maintenance base, FedEx Southwest Regional Sort Hub, Bell-Helicopter Training Center, DEA Air Operations Center and DynCorp International. Sadly the American Airlines maintenance base is set to close at the end of 2012 but is being kept alive in FSX!
This scenery features custom 3d buildings and objects bringing you a very accurate rendition of Ft. Worth Alliance Airport. Requires FSX Acceleration for the all scenery objects to display correctly.
Note: These files MUST be installed for the scenery to work correctly (otherwise there will be missing scenery objects at the airport):

| Nord Noratlas Israeli Air Force (4X-FAP) |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the Nord 2501 Noratlas by Projet Noratlas in the colors of N2501IS 4X-FAP, the first of the Noratlas aircraft used by the Israeli Air Force. In the immediate post-war era France produced a plethora of prototype aircraft, nearly all of which vanished without trace. One of those that made good was the Nord 2500, a cargo transport with the same twin-boom configuration as the American C-119, with the cockpit in the nose of a capacious nacelle. Like the US type, the rear doors were of the left/right clamshell type, so for air-dropping heavy loads they had to be removed before takeoff, causing turbulence and high drag. Despite this, the more powerful 2501 proved an excellent aircraft, produced in large numbers in France and Germany in a programme that led directly to the Transall, produced by the same partners, designed in 1959 and flown in 1962.
Israel bought eight N.2501 IS direct from Nord in 1955-59, a further 12 from Germany in 1962, and four more later. The first, 4X-FAP, was delivered before the end of 1955, and immediately proved extremely popular and capable.
Eight Nords had been purchased and these were used extensively to re-supply IDF columns in Sinai. To assist with these re-supply efforts other Nords were made available from the French Air Force and were requisitioned from Israeli Airline EL-AL which used them as freight transports. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by Projet Noratlas.

| QuickPlan for Windows |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
QuickPlan for Windows is a visual point and click flight planner that makes it easy to generate flight plans in native FSX, FS2004 or X-Plane formats.
The entire route is generated visually, by tapping the map to add the departure airport, intermediate waypoints and arrival airport in the same order that you intend flying the plan.
During plan creation and after adding the final arrival waypoint you also have the opportunity to remove any of the intermediate waypoints before saving the plan in your preferred format.
QuickPlan utilises a new mapping engine and includes 12 world-wide map styles and has support for FSWidgets Cloud Based Aero Charts (free Cuba/Puerto Rico WAC Cloud Based Chart included) and FSWidgets Cloud Based World Nav Data (Free KSFO - San Francisco Bay area Nav Data included).
QuickPlan can be used in Freeform Mode, Advanced Mode, or a combination of both.
FREEFORM MODE: Simply click anywhere on the map and QuickPlan will allow you to add it as a generic waypoint. VFR pilots often use towns, lakes and other unique geographic features and with QuickPlan you can add any geographical location shown on the base map. Plans created this way label the waypoints automatically with generic names (e.g. DEP, WP1, WP2, ARR).
If desired, the entire route from departure to arrival can be created without reference to any navigational aids or official airports. This is handy for bush pilots who often use unlicensed airfields and small landing strips (or seaplane landing areas). Helicopter pilots can also quickly create plans that depart from off-airport locations like building rooftops or land on a road.
ADVANCED MODE: If you own the FSWidgets Cloud Based World Nav Data product you can create more advanced flight plans by clicking on any of the icons displayed on the map to add them as waypoints - airports, VOR's, NDB's and intersections (data for the KSFO area is included free). Plans created this way label the waypoints automatically with airport and navigational aid identifiers taken from the Nav Data (e.g. KSFO, OSI, LV, FABLA). FEATURE LIST:
- Generates native FSX (.pln), FS2004 (.pln) and X-Plane (.fms) format flight plans
- Saves flight plans to any folder (preferred folder set in Preferences)
- Search for airport by ICAO identifier
- Map powered by CloudMade Leaflet API (using OpenStreetMap data)
- Includes 12 world-wide maps styles
- Supports FSWidgets Cloud Based AERO CHARTS
- Free Cuba/Puerto Rico WAC Cloud Based Chart included
- Supports FSWidgets Cloud Based WORLD NAV DATA
- Free KSFO (San Francisco Bay) area Nav Data included
- World-wide Metar and TAF Data icons
- US Nexrad (Next-Gen Radar) Data
