| TEAL - the Coral Route - 1952 |
|
File Description:
TEAL introduced this service in 1951, ferrying passengers, mail and small freight items between Auckland (NZ), Suva (Fiji), Faleolo (Samoa), Motu Akaiami (Cook Islands) and Papeete (Tahiti, French Polynesia).
Service was initially monthly but after six months became fortnightly as its appeal spread world-wide. After all, who wouldn’t like to spend a holiday in a tropical paradise, conveyed to your destination aboard a flying boat, landing in tranquil lagoons fringed by white sandy beaches and palm trees?
Now you can relive those idyllic times by flying your Short Solent IV from Auckland to Tahiti in early May, 1952.
Please read the enclosed INSTALL.txt first and and coral52.doc files for essential information.

| Moncton, New Brunswick, CYQM, 1955-1957 |
|
File Description:
In the period after 1945 Moncton was an important alternate airport for commercial aircraft flying the North Atlantic route between Europe and the U.S.A and Canada. Like Sydney and Goose Bay, it was in a sense a satellite of the much better known Gander, which was however sometimes rendered unusable by adverse weather conditions and especially fog. This scenery is primarily intended for use in the California Classic retro environment created by Tom Gibson and the CalClassic Community, and awaits your Stratocruisers, Douglases and Constellations.

| Spruce Goose for X-Plane 6.4/6.51 (hk-1/H-4 Hercules) |
|
File Description:
Spruce Goose v1.0 for X-Plane copyright (c) by Robert App, January 2003. History of the "Goose" - Officially designated the HK-1 (this project started out as a join venture between Hughes Aircraft and Kaiser) and later designated the H-4 Hercules after Kaiser was unable to work with Howard. It was and still remains the largest (physical dimensions wingspan and length) aircraft ever built, with the largest radial engines ever built by the West (28 cylinder, 3000 HP). The plane had to be constructed mainly of wood due to the shortage of strategic metals caused by WWII. The plane became known as the "Spruce Goose" or "Flying Lumberyard" despite the fact that the wood frame and skin were constructed mainly of laminated poplar; it also involved "sandwich" construction. The plane was flown briefly on a trial taxiing run but Hughes never allowed the plane to be flown again. Speculation has always been rampant that the design was flawed and the plane could not have met the original specification requirements. The X-Plane model is as accurate as is possible with limited plans available to me. The main wing is an X-Plane standard symmetrical high lift airfoil as opposed to the high lift asymmetrical foil section used in the actual plane. The main wing angle of attack has been adjusted to emulate the asymmetrical foil as closely as possible.
Flight Testing the Goose - I have spent many hours testing the plane on X-Plane which with few exceptions provides a very accurate flight model. The published landing speed (79 mph) pretty well verifies the takeoff speed of 52 to 55 knots (k/hr x 1.15 (approx.) = mph). In straight flight the plane is difficult to stall since the nose quickly drops and increases speed if a stall develops with a significant loss of altitude. The plane has a range on 14000 gallons of fuel and takeoff weight of 350,000 Lbs of well over 3000 nautical miles. San Diego to Wake Island via Midway Attol is a piece of cake with lots of fuel to spare at 350,000 lb GW. The plane is flyable at a GW of over 410,000 lb but climb rate is very sluggish (max 400-600 fpm) and loss of speed due to excessive side slip can cause a fatal stall, in straight flight the plane is difficult to stall. So far my conclusion is that with todays materials and jet engines (which may be a future project) this aircraft could probably be competitive in performance with todays planes. With aluminum alloys that were available during its construction its performance would probably have exceeded the initial requirements.

| The flight of Frigate Bird II |
|
File Description:
By 1951 the final ocean to be traversed for air travel was the South Pacific between Australia and South America.
On 13 March 1951 Cpt. P.G. Taylor set off from the flying boat base at Rose Bay in Sydney with a crew of four. They made a shakedown flight to Grafton, NSW, landing on the Clarence River, and next morning headed east for South America. Stops were made at Noumea; Fiji; Samoa; Cook Islands; Tahiti; and Mangareva, French Oceania and then Easter Island before arriving in Valparaiso on 26th. March 1951.
The aircraft was subsequently presented to Captain Taylor by the then Prime Minister, Sir Robert Menzies, in recognition of the first air-crossing of the South Pacific Ocean and other pioneering flights.

| Peninsula Air (Penair) coomplete Package *Update* |
|
File Description:
This is an update of our previous released Package. This package contains the missing Texture for the Saab340 N364PX, a replacement of the Metroliner III N892DC instead of the N650PA. The N650PA made a very hard landing last year and has some structural damages so the N892DC will be a replacement in the PenAir fleet. I have also added a detailed Readme made by Rene for the installing of the Grumman Goose by Bill Lyons And the AFCAD's by Renè Tanggaard. For this Update you need the Complete Package. penair_package.zip

File Description:
A real airport on the Atlantic Coast in the Miami/Ft. Lauderdale area with a grass airstrip.
-Features: I added a small Tower with comms, tidied up parking, taxiways, and for the 'difficult-to-taxi' tail-draggers, a circular taxiway to the Primary Runway, 9.
-Three freeware airplanes are included, Aeronca Chief, Boeing Stearman, and Beechcraft D18.
-Two Acceleration Pack aircraft, the P51 Racer #2, and the Grumman Goose are written into the Traffic file, so if you have Acceleration installed, they will also appear at the Aerodrome.

| New airport AFCAD for 7AK ICAO: PAUT Akutan, Alaska, USA for FSX and Prepar3D |
|
File Description:
The airport was opened in 2012. Akutan was previously served by amphibious airplane service to Akutan Seaplane Base, located on Akutan Island, however, in 2012 operator PenAir announced that they would retire their Grumman Goose aircraft and as a result the traditional airport on Akun Island was built to serve Akutan. The new airport is connected to Akutan by a hovercraft.
Changes were made based on 2012 construction plans. Custom models have been added.
This is a reworked version originally from Wayne Roberts.
The Airport has been reoriented according the Satellite-Image.
