File Description:
Default FSX B747 Selective Fuel Transfer Utility
I have written this little utility to aid with the fuel transfer problems in the Default FSX B747 model. As you know the fuel feeds from the Port Main tank only and when empty that's it unless one transfers manually from the "Fuel and Payload" configurer or selects "Unlimited Fuel".
On boot up the utility defaults fuel transfer to 'Auto' where feed starts at the Center 2 tank as well as the Port and Stbd Tip tanks. As they empty feed progresses to the Aux tanks then to the Mains and Center tanks. One can feed from an individual tank if they wish to balance the aircraft or whatever just by clicking on the tank. There are indicators to help with this including CofG and Balance.
Also displayed are a number of flight indications.

File Description:
Hawes Aerial Operations Facility is a reimagined version of an abandoned World War II auxiliary airstrip formerly known as Hawes AAF Aux #1. It was built in the mojave desert, just east of Edwards AFB (then Muroc AAF) during WWII as one of 4 satellite fields for Victorville AAF. After the war, Hawes as used as a private civilian airfield until it's closure in the early 1960's. It is now reborn in FSX as a UAV base by Nevada Systems. Due to it's location in the Mojave desert and the presence of many thermals in FSX, it was also used in production of the Aeroworks ARX-1 civilian glider concept. This scenery uses many custom macros as well as default macros from the Acceleration Expansion Pack, which is required for best performance. Scenery and custom macros by Joshua B. Nyhus and Jason L. Terry

File Description:
AI Ships on Hong Kong Harbor. This enhancement is designed to compliment the 9Dragons version of the old Kai Tak Airport (VHHX). One of the World's busiest harbors will get even busier as this package adds a number of AI ships sailing near the airport and the dock areas, adding visual interest to the Harbor which is already well populated with static ships. You will see a beautiful Yacht, several container ships, a tramp steamer and the SS Ile de France Cruise ship - all arriving and/or departing the area. A properly installed 9Dragons Kai Tak scenery is required. Models used are by Phil Crowther and Mitsuya Hamaguchi (Hama). A few technical notes are included if you wish to experiment with adding AI ships to your own scenery. This enhancement is for FS2004 only. Please unzip to a temporary folder and follow the easy installation instructions. Compiled for your flying enjoyment by David "Opa" Marshall.

Supermarine Spitfire F 14e "SG58" (BAF) |
![]() |
File Description:
Following the example of the Royal Air Force, the Belgian Air Force wanted a squadron which could allow reserve-pilots to maintain their flying skills during the weekends.
Created at Beauvechain on 1 December 1949, the Auxiliary Squadron initially received most of its Spitfire 14's from the locally based 349 and 350 Squadrons as they were converting from the Spit to the Gloster Meteor F.4.
Although it was a reserve squadron, the operational level of the Auxiliary Squadron was of the highest standards because many of the pilots were war-time veterans with a long experience on the Spit.
SG 58 was delivered to Aux Sqn/1 Wing on 19 may 51 and, like other squadron's last Spitfires, was transferred to the Fighter School at Koksijde from the fall of 1952 onwards. The Meteor F.4 then became the new mount of the Auxiliary Squadron.
The Auxiliary Squadron was disbanded in 1958. (Source : Daniel Brackx)

Anticosti Island in Quebec Canada |

File Description:
Anticosti Island is in the Gulf of St Lawrence, around 25 miles off the Quebec mainland coast. It is some 40 miles wide and 130 miles long on an east west axis. There are few urban areas and only one that can be described as a small town, namely Port Menier at the western end of the southern coast, with a population of under 1,000. There is a ferry service to the harbour. The airport, Port Menier CYPN, is around 3 miles northeast of the town, with an asphalt runway aligned 11-28, 4,875 feet long and 150 feet wide with PAPI at each end. In 2010 (the approximate date of this scenery) a gravel runway was still visible at the eastern end of the field. This was no longer in use by 2010, except perhaps by small planes on skis in the winter. The island, with its small population, small urban area, and no industry other than logging, has as a result a mainly undisturbed wildlife population. This has made deer hunting and fishing the main tourist activities, with one company (called Safari) having an exclusive licence to exploit large areas of mountains and rivers. Planeloads of hunters and fishermen are flown in on chartered Nolinor Aviation planes from the south. There are a further two airfields in the eastern end of the island, and in 2010 Rivere-Aux-Saumons CTH7 had a 5,500 feet gravel runway, linked by road to a lodge area at the mouth of the river. This is the only lodge area that I have been able to locate, but there are others. To the south Riviere Bell CRB5 had at that time a gravel runway that was 3,000 feet long. This has been lengthened since then and both runways were recently (2021) asphalted. If you find an error email me please, and note that my email address has been changed to rogwens at Gmail dot com.

Iles de la Madeleine CYGR in Quebec Canada |

File Description:
The Iles de la Madeleine are a group of spit islands linked by bridges in the Gulf of St Lawrence. They are east of New Brunswick, north of Cape Breton Island, west of the Island of Newfoundland, and south of the mainland coast of Quebec. On a southwest to northeast axis they are 40 miles in length and the airport CYGR is pretty much at the midpoint of the southern line of islands. Take a look at the overhead from FS9 to see what I mean. CYGR has two runways, one is aligned 08-26 and is just under 4,400 feet long and 150 feet wide with lighting and PAPI at both ends. The second is aligned 16-34 and is 3,600 feet long and 150 feet wide, without lights or PAPI. Both are asphalt. The apron is not huge, and a newish (in 2010) hangar was built with separate access to the 16-34 runway. There are daily flights by Air Canada and Pascan Aviation included in the AI. The AI also includes some boats and a ferry, and I first used these with my Dutch Harbor scenery, so if you have that already.... This scenery also includes Cindy Hook, a small boat harbour just 2 miles southwest of the airport, and the larger harbour at Cap aux Meules a further 3 miles away that accommodates the daily ferry trips, along with fishing boats etc. Also included here is a further addition to the Homer PAHO scenery in the shape of a boat that is included in the Homer Spit harbour. Just add the contents of the scenery folder to the Homer scenery folder of your Homer installation, and the texture folder contents to the Homer texture folder. This is hopefully the last PAHO addition, and again apologies. If you find an error email me please, and note that my email address has been changed to rogwens at Gmail dot com.

Royal Air Force 101Sqn Douglas DC10-30 (Fictional) |

File Description:
SGA/FFX DC10-30 Royal Air Force 101 Squadron: This is a fictional repaint based on the paint scheme used on the Lockheed Tristar of Transport Command. To the best of my knowledge, 101 Squadron has never used DC10-30's. SGA DC-10 model included - This is a complete package containing the aircraft, panel, gauges & sounds. Credit for the work is contained within the readme file.
Number 101 Squadron was formed at South Farnborough on 12 July 1917, and two weeks later went to St Andre-aux Bois, France with FE2s as a night bomber squadron. It main tasks involved attacking enemy communications and aerodromes in Northern France and Belgium, with occasional strafing attacks on troops aimed at drowning the noise of tanks and soldiers positioning for battle in the trenches. In March 1919, the squadron was reduced to a cadre and returned to the UK before disbandment at the end of the year. It remained dormant until March 1928, when it reformed at Bircham Newton and flew Sidestrands in the day-bomber role until these were replaced by Overstrands in early 1935.
At the outbreak of World War II, the squadron was equipped with Blenheim IVs and was involved in attacks against enemy barge concentrations in the Channel Ports. In mid-1941, No. 101 Sqn became part of Bomber Command's medium-bomber force with Wellingtons and flew many night sorties against Germany and Italy. These aircraft were replaced barely 18 months later by the Lancaster and became specialised in airborne radar jamming to disrupt German night-fighters interceptions. After the war, Lincolns replaced the Lancasters and the unit moved to Binbrook. In June 1951, No. 101 became the RAF's first jet-bomber squadron when it received Canberras, and it was with this aircraft that the squadron was involved in operations in both Malaya and Suez before once again disbanding on 1 Feb 1957.
A brief period of inactivity ended on 15 Oct 1957, when No. 101 Sqn joined the V-bomber force with Vulcans as part of the Finningley Wing before moving to Waddington four years later. The squadron became synonymous with the type, and took part in Operation Corporate, the Falklands Conflict, operating from Ascension Island. Shortly after the conflict, the squadron relinquished its Vulcans and disbanded again, until it reformed on 1 May 1984 to operate VC10s in the air-to-air-refuelling role, and has since demonstrated the flexibility the aerial refuelling offers to combat aircraft in such operations as the Gulf War and Operation Allied Force.
Following the disbanding of sister VC10 squadron, No 10, 101 became the sole operator of the type in October 2005.
