| Douglas DC-3 MAAM-SIM Panel Modifications |
|
File Description:
Requires prior installation of the R4D-6/DC-3 package available from Mid-Atlantic Air Museum Simulations (MAAM-SIM) at www.maam.org. Will not work with the default FS2004 DC-3. These unofficial modifications, in two versions, of the panel supplied for the DC-3 in the MAAM-SIM package are uploaded with their permission. In both versions everything is consolidated on, or is accessible from, the Pilot's panel. Most features are accessible from the VC also. Version 1 replaces the Sperry autopilot with a Bendix autopilot and adds an HSI and RMI to the panel; Version 2 retains the Sperry but replaces the directional gyro with a more contemporary gyro with Heading bug. This panel also has an RMI and a conventional VOR1 gauge. Both panels have several other enhancements including standby radios.

File Description:
More than 10,000 virtual pushbacks were done by previous versions of this panel. It's time to upgrade to v3.0! Planning an international flight to Eastern Europe or Russia? Version 3.0 has an additional Pushback Truck Switch Panel that makes it possible to choose between English and Russian groundcrew to use both in one flight. You can still use a standalone panel either English or Russian like in versions v1.0 and v2.0. Includes Brake Sound FX. Supports FS9, FSX, and all versions of P3D including v4.0 and later. Based on Groundhandling gauges by Rob Barendregt and Doug Dawson's XML Sound Gauge. The panel is intended for aircraft Pushback procedures. NOTE: Before installing the version v3.0 it's recommended to remove all previous versions of the Pushback Panel. The panel review: https://youtu.be/_DCAzLg-w2k

| Cessna 414A Pressurized Business Twin |
|
File Description:
The Cessna 414A is a 6-8 place pressurized twin used mainly by businesses. It has an 8,000 ft cabin at 23,000 ft. The pressurization allows you to fly the plane at 25,000 ft at 225 knots making climbs and descents at much higher rates than in unpressurized aircraft. This aircraft is very easy to fly although it is fully realistic regarding power settings, climb rates, cruise speeds and stall speeds. Stall speed is 72 KIAS so you can land it at a about 90 KIAS. The modern panel includes a PFD and an MFD/GPS with digital xml gauges by the author. A cabin altitude gauge is a guide to managing your descent from high altitude. This original model, the flight dynamics and the digital panel are by Tom Goodrick using Abacus' FSDSII Pro.

| The Steamer PATRIA, pearl on VFR of Lario - Como Lake, Italy |

File Description:
Steamship sailing, GMax model with photo real textures and panel with exterior views.
The History: Born with the name of "Savoia" this steamer was placed in the yard June 7, 1926 by the Odero's workers at the construction site of Dervio, and in a very short time, triumphantly launched July 31, 1926 first in the waters of Dervio , to start shipping in the Como Lake.
Soon after this launch, the site was put on the twin " October 28 ", which later became the "Concordia". In December 1926, the " Savoia " incorporates a major change : the distribution system of the machine new one "Caprotti" type that has excellent results and is , up to date, the only example in the world (reduction of rolling steam). In May 1927, the " Savoia " has the honor to welcome on board the King of Italy Vittorio Emanuele III , escorted by the steamers " October 28" and " Plinio". During World War II , following the fall of the fascist regime , July 25, 1943 , is required to change the name of the steamer. Even public opinion is mobilized and decide to rename the steamer by the name of "PATRIA". At the same time the twin " October 28 " is renamed "Concordia". Back after a break in service , January 10, 1945 is attacked and strafed while browsing the center of the lake . At the end of was counted 5 victims and 17 injured of which one will die as a result. At the height of the bridge spread of a fire, for piercing and incendiary bullets used by the Anglo-Americans, but soon subdued by the crew. In June 1951, the PATRIA is back in service with some modifications. The smokestack is shortened to about 3 mts and boilers and burners are converted from coal to oil. In August 1952, the boat service on the lake shift from "Lariana " to Government Management, which taken the steamer. In 1973 the interior of the " Patria" is restored according to the original scheme: the magnificent ship back into service June 10, 1973.
Great new features are the stained glass windows in the inner surface that allow you to see the paddle wheels in motion. In the 80s the PATRIA is used mainly for special cruises and rentals, limiting the use of the line. The summer of 1990 is the last one that sees the "PATRIA" in service. In the fall it is stopped at the construction site of Tavernola, later transferred to Dervio where it remains moored for years waiting to know his fate ... between demolition or renovation (this strongly desired by the Lariana population). Finally in 2003, the Province of Como takes the field by engaging in the recovery of the steamer, with PATRIA's historic "friends" of "Famiglia Comasca"; February 27, 2004 the remains of the steamer is formally sold to the Province of Como in the symbolic figure of " 1 Euro". After a series of bureaucratic delays, in August 2008 is finally contracted the first batch of works and the renovation starts. On 8 May 2013, PATRIA comes to Dervio for a short cruise, and for testing stability on the lake, and received a "Certificate of Class" that officially renames it as a ship. After 23 years it is the first time that the PATRIA sails again, since 1990, the year of its disarmament. The inauguration takes place July 19, 2013, at Villa Olmo in Como present authorities, proponents of the huge recovery and many other enthusiasts ... as me. Enjoy.

| Arado Ar-196 |
|
File Description:
The purpose of this package is to make the Alphasim Arado Ar-196, now freeware, usable in FSX. What needs to be done? First, we need to replace the gauges; the old ones don't work. I have done this for the virtual cockpit, but the 2D cockpit needs some work (which I am leaving to someone else). Second, we need to use some different sounds; the old ones don't exist in FSX. Third, we need a thumbnail image for the Aircraft selection menu. These three items are provided here: new panel.cfg, new sound.cfg, and a thumbnail. In addition, you'll also need the original package for FS2004 (ar196_fs9.zip) and a freeware gauge set by Hauke Keitel (kedigau_ud2.zip). Instructions for putting it all together are provided here in readme.txt.Also requires:
1. ar196_fs9.zip
2. kedigau_ud2.zip

| Bristol F2B Mk.1 Part 1 |
|
File Description:
Flight Simulator X version of the Bristol Fighter Mk.1 or 'Biff' as it was called by its crews in WW1. This file is part 1 of a 4 part download and contains visual models and textures depicting 3 aircraft with the earlier short form exhausts. No other downloads are required to make this functional. The other 3 downloads are optional variants. This aircraft was modeled using 3DS Max 8.0 and compiled using FSX SDK tools and will only work in FSX or higher. It is NOT compatible with FS2004. The aircraft makes full use of FSX materials and also features skinned animated crew members in the external model. It also features a detailed virtual cockpit. All instruments, levers and selectors are modeled in the 3D model. It does not use the FSX gauge system and there is NO 2D cockpit.

| Flight1 ATR72 PANEL Enhancement -FAPE- |
|
File Description:
What FAPE does for you??
1) FAPE adds about 50 new clickspots to make easier the opening/closing of every panel window, following GUI ergonomical rules. You won't move your mouse anymore to open popup panels.
2) FAPE adds a clickspot to display the RealityXP500 Weather Radar (if you own it, of course).
3) FAPE integrates Rob Barendregt's nice Pushback gauge within the center panel.
4) FAPE displays the FMS in a smaller size and in the right bottom corner of the screen.
5) FAPE allows using the Panel Controller Window (panel icons) from the VFR window configuration, so you will be able to open every other panel from the VFR panel.
WARNING: THIS FILE IS ONLY FOR FLIGHT1 ATR72 OWNERS (GO AND BUY IT, IT'S A FANTASTIC AIRCRAFT!!) USING THE BROWN CONDENSED PANEL. UPON SIMMERS DEMAND I WILL DO THE SAME FOR THE BLUE CONFIG.
Enjoy!
