| RAF East Moor |
|
File Description:
RAF East Moor was opened in 1942 and was originally a 4 Group facility and first hosted No. 158 Squadron RAF which had moved from RAF Driffield on 6 June 1942. The squadron flew the Handley Page Halifax Mk. II with detachments at RAF Beaulieu and RAF Manston before moving to RAF Rufforth on 6 November 1942.
Royal Canadian Air Force use
The first squadron was No. 429 Squadron RCAF which formed at the airfield on 7 November 1942 initially only flying the Vickers Wellington Mk.III until January 1943 when the Wellington Mk. X was added. The squadron left on 13 August 1943 going to RAF Leeming where the unit re-equipped with Halifaxes. On 19 September 1943 the next squadron arrived being 432 Squadron which initially used the Avro Lancaster Mk.II before being re-equipped with the Halifax Mk. III in February 1944 and the Mk. VII Halifax in July 1944. The squadron disbanded on 15 May 1945 at the airfield.
The last Canadian squadron to use the airfield was 415 Squadron which flew the Halifax III from 26 July 1944. The unit inherited the additional Mk.VII versions during March 1945 but disbanded shortly after on 15 May 1945 at the airfield.
Royal Air Force use
Not long after the last Canadian squadron disbanded the airfield was handed back to the Royal Air Force (RAF). The first RAF unit to use the airfield was No. 54 Operational Training Unit (OTU) which had moved in during November 1945 flying the de Havilland Mosquito. By May 1946 No. 288 Squadron RAF joined with their Supermarine Spitfire IX's and their Vultee Vengeance Mk. IV's with a detachment at RAF Acklington. The squadron disbanded on 15 June 1946. No. 54 OTU stayed until June 1946 when the unit moved to RAF Leeming but a detachment stayed until 15 November 1946.
The airfield closed to flying in November 1946. Most of the buildings were taken down and the land has reverted largely to agricultural use.

| Dunsfold Park Industrial Estate (EGTD) |
|
File Description:
EDTD - Dunsfold Park Industrial Estate (formerly Dunsfold Aerodrome) for FS9 default scenery. Dunsfold is visible as you make you turn onto final approach course for runway 08R at London Gatwick. It is a private airfield, landing by prior permission only and not an airport of entry. As such, this is not intended for the user, or AI, to fly to, merely a visual reference point on the Gatwick approach. There is a space for the parked B747 and some token GA spaces if you'd like to send AI here anyway. Old runways, taxiways, ramps and indication of building positions are shown but positioning is very approximate. Users of photoreal VFR scenery do not need this file. Famous (in the UK) as BBC Top Gear's test track. Visual approach procedure only, no ILS.

| PMDG SIDSTARS for Portland Intl OR (KPDX) |
|
File Description:
Current (Cycle 0607) terminal procedures file for Portland Intl (KPDX) based on FAA NACO digital terminal procedures and document 7350.7 Ver W. Both Portland Five generic vectors and River Six departures are included with all VORs referenced on charts. Three STARs are enumerated by landing direction, e.g., if landing East (rys 10L/R) use BONVL4.E. The header to the text file (and readme) includes a STAR CHART to assist in the selection of arrival route. Fifteen IAPs are encoded (ILS/LOC RNAV & VOR); however, I excluded the USAF HI, VOR-A and NDB approaches. The fixes for ILS28L are aligned with the default FS9 localizer rather than on extended runway centerline as is the case in the real world. Procedure turns are included where shown as part of the transition on the charts.

| Event Logger v2 |
|
File Description:
This is version 2 of a diagnostic gauge, targeted primarily at gauge and panel authors. It writes all Key_Events issued in FSX or FS9 to a log file, thus allowing the detection of repeating Key_Events which interfere with normal panel operation. It will not identify the gauge issuing the repeating Key_Events, but by identifying the Key_Events themselves, it should make the gauge issuing them somewhat easier to locate. If you have a panel which does not allow the selection of a second engine or exit, or which exhibits improper autopilot operation, this gauge may help you discover why. Updates include a displayed count of the number of Key_Events issued by the sim, along with a tooltip display of the most recently issued Key_Event. Code signed for use in FSX.

These files contain the new model files for the barbers pole first flight aircraft,they also contain two texture files for two prototype 1 schemes
one is of the first flight and the other is a later variant of the same aircraft.
I hope you enjoy these additions to your YS-11 fleet,it is the first one i have done with fuselage metal textures,Esa sent me a metal texture file by Rui Christina,for use with the YS-11,but i did not use it,but it did let me discover where i was going wrong on metal finishes.

| Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport |
|
File Description:
Detroit Metropolitan Wayne Count Metro Airport for FSX. The following improvements have been made: 1.) Airlines accurately park at their assigned terminals. All Northwest Airlines and Northwest Airlink aircraft will park at the two Mcnamara terminals. 2.) Three jetways have been added to the smaller McNamara terminal. 3.) Overflow parking has been added for Northwest Airlink next to the smaller McNamara Terminal. 4.) Vehicle paths have been rerouted. This essentially eliminates the problem of airport vehicles using the taxiways, which cause traffic delays. A big thanks to RaySmith for his help with this.
5.) An assigned cargo area has been created for FedEx and UPS aircraft. 6.) Some ramp areas have been resized. Note that this file will only work in FSX. It will not work in FS9.

| Myanmar Airways International - Summer 2007 |
|
File Description:
Myanmar Airways International took off in August 1993, the result of a joint venture between Myanma Airways and Singapore interests with the support of Royal Brunei Airlines. In October 1998 that original joint venture was terminated with Myanma Airways taking total ownership. Subsequently in January 2001 a new joint venture was formed and a new aircraft livery was rolled out. Operating from Yangon (VYYY) to Kuala Lumpur (WMKK) and Bangkok (VTBS) using their single MD-82, Myanmar Airways International also participate in a number of code share agreements, most notably being their flights to Singapore (WSSS) operated by Jetstar Asia. As FS9 does not include VTBS by default, if you have not installed an AFCAD or scenery for this new airport install the alternate flightplan set included instead.

| PB Air - Winter 2007 |
|
File Description:
PB Air were established in 1990 by Dr. Piya BhiromBhakdi, the president of the Boonrawd Brewery, the biggest in Thailand. It was originally used for flights by brewery staff only but in 1995 it received its license to offer charter flights and started operations in 1997. In February 1999 they started scheduled flights in alliance with Thai Airways International and Air Andaman. With their fleet of 2 Embraer 145's they operate a large number of domestic routes throughout Thailand from their base at Bangkok's brand new Suvarnabhumi Airport (VTBS) and also operate a service to Danang (VVDN) in Vietnam. As FS9 does not include VTBS by default, if you have not installed an AFCAD or scenery for this new airport install the alternate flightplan set included instead.

| KMSP - Minneapolis-St. Paul Intl |
|
File Description:
Building on the work of Carlyle Sharpe, this file set updates Minneapolis-St. Paul Intl Airport adding runway 17/35 along with other features. The west end of the airfield now has default buildings representing the facilities for Mesaba, Sun Country and Champion Air along with the west-end cargo-ops. Buildings have been removed from the runway 35 end of 17/35 as they were relocated to the L5 apron. This set includes a reworked set of approaches based in part on what was in the FSX default and also the work Jim Vile did for fs9 used here by permission and adjusted for FSX with a few additions. As a result the star runway technique is in use. Please consult the readme for proper operation. Additional airport detail scenery is also provided.

File Description:
This repaint ,made and released in march 2008 ,represents the Fouga Magister F-GSHG wich was flown and based at
the "Aviodrome" (The Netherlands).
This plane ,owned by the Dutch Historic Jet Associaton, was unrepairable damaged during a landing-gear-failure last year.
It is going to be replaced by a similair plane wich is already at Aviodrome for a general-overhaul.
Special thanks to the Restauravia team (France) for making this magnificent model for FS9 .
Also a big thank you to Jan Schokker who provided me with a set of fine pictures taken from the real bird , wich gave
me the opportunity to make some realistic and specific details.
This repaint only can be used in combination with the Fouga Magister. Read The readme for more information.
