| CYQR Regina (Regina International Airport and Roland Groome Field) Version 2 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Regina International Airport can trace its history back to 1919, when Regina airport became the first registered air harbour in Canada. This virtual model of CYQR represents the airport as it was in spring of 2007. CYQR airport is the gateway to southern Saskatchewan, Canada and is situationed in Regina, which is the provincial capital. The airport is served by Air Canada, Air Canada JAZZ, Westjet, West Wind, Express Air, Northwest Airlines and United Airlines. The airport is named for Roland Groome, who was the first registered pilot in Canada.
This scenery is a re-upload of version 2 of the scenery, which was lost in the AVSIM hack. Nothing has changed.
This scenery was constructed using GMAX and includes nearly every airport and commercial building on the airport property. Beyond the airport itself this scenery also includes, as an option, the major landmark buildings in the city of Regina proper and those on the runway approaches. Regina City buildings are meant to enhance the realism of virtual flying in the Regina area.

| CYYN Swift Current Municipal Airport |
|
File Description:
Swift Current Municipal airport is situated approximately 8 km east of the City of Swift Current. It is one of those tiny airports where the default flightsim scenery has no resemblance to the real world airport. CYYN was constructed using GMAX and represents the airport as it was in the Summer of 2007. It includes nearly all the buildings at the airport, runway signs, the addition of fencing, and a rotating beacon. CYYN also includes a landclass file to better represent the terrain around the airport, at least as far as the limits of the default landscape will allow. The airport has a long history, being built in 1937, as one of the hundred-mile airports on the Trans Canada airway. It was greatly expanded as an RCAF / RAF station during world war II. Many of the wartime structures still exist but many are in poor shape. Two of the original three runways remain in service. The airfield is often used by 15 Wing aircraft of CFB Moose Jaw to practice approaches.

| Howick Airfield (FAHC), South Africa |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This package will add a custom (Gmax) made Howick Airfield (FAHC), KwaZulu Natal, South Africa with photoreal textures and seasonal ground textures.
Howick is a small town in the KwaZulu Natal Midlands just off the N3 freeway which connects Johannesburg and Durban and home to the famous Howick waterfall. The Umgeni river falls 95m (311 ft) over the cliffs on the way to the Indian Ocean. The town is also home to the Midmar dam. This dam is very well known as being the location of the annual Midmar Mile swimming event which, in 2009, was recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's largest open water swimming event with 13 755 competitors taking part.
The sloped grass runway is aligned 16/34 and 825m long and sits at an elevation of 3 615ft. Both runways have obstacles on the approach, with powerlines 730m from the threshold of runway 16, while runway 34's approach have hills around 900m before the threshold. The sloped runway has been created in FS2004 within the limits of the simulator itself.

File Description:
Have you ever visited the "Hangar Cafe"? Great place to have a meal and get lost in conversation with fellow aviators and aviation lovers.
McKenzie Airfield does not appear in the default FS2004, neither is the town of Richmond included. This package will add a custom (Gmax) made McKenzie Airfield (AWK5), Richmond, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa with photoreal textures and ground textures. The included Landclass file will also add the town.
The small airfield as well as the adjacent McKenzie Plant-hire yard, has been recreated with custom true to life models and photoreal textures. McKenzie airfield is also home to the "Hangar Cafe" and an ex-SAAF Bosbok. The runway is not too challenging, just keep the aircraft in the middle and away from the trees right next to the runway. All the electrical high-wires have also been included in the scenery as it plays a prominent role in the look and feel of the airfield as has the flower beds.
The grass runway is aligned 11/29 and only 800m long.

| Ala Littoria, C.R.D.A. Cant.Z.506A / C |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Developed from a design of Ing. Zappata, the first prototype of this entirely wooden construction seaplane, flown by test pilot Stoppani, did its maiden flight, powered by three American made Wright Cyclone, in August 1936 and gained immediately eight world records in speed and two in altitude in the seaplane category. Successive versions, powered by three Alfa Romeo 126 RC10 (later RC34), gained another 16 world records. These airplanes (A or C) were intended for commercial transport of 12/14 passengers, 25 of them were employed by 'Ala Littoria' Company on Mediterranean routes, the Royal Italian Air Force bought another 13 similar aircraft. During WWII all the civilian aircraft, acquired by Regia Aeronautica (Royal Italian Air Force), were used in communication and SAR roles.
Complete aircraft. 3 Different Hi-Res GMax models (3 different versions), features the usual moving parts, such as all flight controls, props pitch and navlights; Six different liveries (for A and C versions); 2D panel only (NO VC). Created by Manuele Villa , July 2007. Installation instructions included.

| Airport Restaurants 1.1 scenery object library |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
[Version 1.1 adds thumbnail images and proper installation instructions for users of Sbuilder. If you have installed the previous version of this object library and are not using Sbuilder to place objects in your scenery, you do not need to install version 1.1.]
You'll finally have a place to get one of those $150 hamburgers when you arrive at your destination. This is a collection of Gmax restaurant scenery objects for use with FS9. They are intended for smaller airports that don't have the usual food court inside the terminal building. Some of the restaurants have an aviation theme, some don't. Most of them are also available with the signage removed so you can use them as small terminal buildings or whatever else you want. Also included are some outdoor chairs, tables and table umbrellas, and a variety of vending machines. Should work with just about any payware or freeware program that is able to place scenery library objects in FS9, including RWY12, Instant Scenery, EZ-Scenery, Airport Design Editor, etc.

| Tel Aviv Lod Airport Scenery 1961 |
|
File Description:
Lod Airport, now called Ben Gurion International Airport started out in 1936 as Lydda Airport, an airstrip of four concrete runways on the outskirts of the Arab town of Lydda. By the mid-1960s, 14 international airlines were landing at Lod Airport.
I have backdated Lod airport back to 1961, when it was much smaller than today. Lod was and is Tel Aviv's major airport, used for all airline flights in 1961, and most international flights today. I have used GMAX to create the terminal and many of the hangars and other buildings at the airport, and have also used many library objects to increase the detail around the airport. Landclass files are included to reduce the city area back to their sizes in the 1960's. I have also backdated 4 other airports: Eilath (LLET), Sde Dov (LLSD), Mahanaim (LLIB), and Beer Sheeba (Teyman LLBS). These use library objects to increase the airport detail as well. These cities constituted the entire route network of Arkia, the local airline of Israel, in 1961.

| de Havilland Chipmunk |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Re-upload following Avsim hack. The Chipmunk first flew in 1946. There were numerous variations built in both Canada and Great Britain as a trainer aircraft to replace the Tiger Moth biplane. More than 500 Chipmunks remain airworthy throughout the world today. This aircraft has has been constructed using Gmax v1.2. The aircraft is constructed with as few polygons as possible and with a single texture file to ensure the absolute minimum impact on your framerates. The model has six LODs with the main model having just 2522 polygons (faces/triangles).I would like to especially thank Ray Blake who has kindly made all ten high quality textures for this package.
It is also quite fun to fly as a normal aircraft, but was originally designed specifically to enhance the AI aircraft population and to use with the marvellous GA-Traffic programme by Markus Brunner . The file for GA-Traffic can be found at Avsim: "ga-traffic_setup.zip".
The paintkit is being posted as a separate zip file.

| Dornier Do27 |
|
File Description:
Re-upload. Dornier Do27 (Germany)
Four to six seat STOL utility light aircraft manufactured in the mid 1950's to 1960 and initially designed for military purposes. A total of 577 Dornier Do27 were produced in their various manifestations.
It has a wide and relatively roomy cabin, wide track undercarriage and excellent STOL performance. The STOL performance in particular suited the Do 27 for use in undeveloped countries, and several have seen service in Africa and Papua New Guinea.
This has been modelled with Gmax v1.2 and has animated ailerons, flaps, elevators and rudder. It has 4 LOD models and a single texture file and is extremely frame rate friendly.
It is designed specifically to enhance the AI aircraft population and to use with the marvellous GA-Traffic program by Markus Brunner . It is also quite fun to fly as a normal aircraft but you will need to install a suitable panel for this.
Three textures and a paintkit are included.
Special thanks to Steven Grant for his kind permission to use his FDE for this aircraft
