| Latin VFR Cuzco Photo and Airport Scenery |
|
File Description:
Cuzco or how is also formally known today as “Cusco” is one of the most important cities of Peru and is the historic capital of the Inca empire, it is also the historical capital of Peru designated by its constitution. The city is located in the Andes mountains and its elevation is above 3310 metres or 10860 feet above sea level. The city is nearby the ancient historical symbol of the Incas, Machu Picchu which is about 80 kilometers from Cusco, which became one of the New seven wonders of the world back in 2007.
This airport (SPZO) or (CUZ) has a visibility restriction and only operates during daylight due to the requirement of a visual approach to land. The aircraft operate mainly in one direction of flight in and out of this airport, they land on runway 28 and depart on runway 10. During weather situations in which no visual approach can be made the airport is closed until the weather gets better. No pilot dares to land with an overcast sky into an airport completely surrounded by mountains and no precision guidance navaid in order to assist for the landing. Therefore all landings conducted are SOLELY visual, and strict VFR rules apply. American Airlines (AA) briefly operated in this airport in the late 90’s and the word out there was that they kept doing miss approaches having difficulties with the approach, so it is widely known to be an airport dominated by veterans of the Cuzco approach, mainly Peruvian pilots or Andean pilots that know how difficult it is to have such restrictions. This is certainly the Madeira or the Innsbruck of all Latin American airports, it would be wise to say that this one is harder due to the lack of a precision approach. And by the way the largest aircraft permitted to operate here is a B757-200, however, anything bigger than a B737-200 needs government approval.

| FS2004/FSX/P3D Fred Olsen C-46 1970 |

File Description:
This is a repaint of the C-46 in Fred Olsen Lines 1970 colors. The freeware C-46 by Libardo Guzman and Tom Gibson is needed for this repaint. The famous Norwegian shipping magnate; Fred Olsen, formed his new airline "Fred Olsen’s Flyselskap" in June 1946. It was a nonscheduled carrier, which offered aircraft leasing, passenger and cargo charters, calibration flights, and contract service flights. They started with DC-3s and in 1958 five C-46s joined the fleet. Also, many of the company’s services were undertaken under contract to SAS, the national carrier of the Scandinavian countries. Fred Olsen Lines was focused mainly on cargo flights, and in 1965 their fleet had three C-46s and one DC-6A/B. Two more DC-6s were added to the fleet during 1966-67, followed by a Convair CV-340 in 1968. In 1969 Fred Olsen Lines' emphasis was to offer executive passenger charter services with their new Falcon executive jets. However, this special service did not work for the company, and in 1972 Olsen sold the two Falcons to the Royal Norwegian Air Force. So, the focus was back to Cargo, and in 1974 The first of many L-188Cs joined the fleet. The 1970s and 1980s were quite good for the ailrine and by 1986 the emphasis was shifted entirely to cargo charters. In 1997 Fred Olsen's airline ceased operations.The reasons offered were the loss of maintenance contracts, and difficulties in making a profit in the Central European freight market. This repaint is of C-46 LN-FOR, one of three C-46s operated by Fred Olsen. This repaint was tested on FSX-SE. Textures are 32bit bmp. It should work on FSX, P3D v1-3, & FS2004.

The DC-3 AirVeteran FINNISH Airlines livery textures
Day and night bitmaps are for the Leif Ohlson´s X-Plane 6.30+ DC-3
by: Miguel Angel Alvarez Gallardo. Spain. Nov. 2002
The first time I saw this pretty plane was on the model made by Jam Visser for fs2000 (TM), and I fall in love with it,
as far as I take the textures from his plane and adapted to the great ( genial ! ) DC-3 for X-Plane by Leif Ohlsson.
I asked Jam Visser several post, but I never released it!
The next livery for Leif Ohlsson plane was the SAS livery " Daisy " and this time it was released. It liked Leif Ohlsson
so much that He told me We could make a group!
I began to design a new bare metal base texure in order to release several liveries, and when it was made, I decided
release another again the AirVeteran FINNISH Airlines, but this time with a textures enterely by my own!
I think it´s better than the first for this plane and I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed desingnig it!
These textures are freeware!
But: They can´t be used in any way for comercial purposes, neither can be manipulated or alter in any way.
These textures only can be distribute in this original package!
These textures are released as there and no responsability in any way will be derivated from its use
These textures can´t be used for other authors or other simulators, neither manipulated or alter in any way for any purposes
without my permission.
They have been the result of a lot of work and with the unestimable help of Leif Ohlson.
These textures are as the real DC-3 fuselaje.
Enjoy!

| RAF Keevil |
|
File Description:
The airfield was built on a site previously ear-marked for the purpose in the mid-1930s. Consisting of 3 long concrete
runways the airfield was used by the Royal Air Force and the United States Army Air Forces Eighth and Ninth Air
Forces.
In 1942 Keevil airfield was provided to the USAAF and it was assigned USAAF designation 471 (KV). Squadrons based at
the unit transported military freight and supplies using C-47 and C-53 aircraft.
RAF Fighter Command use
Short Stirlings of Nos. 196 and 299 Squadrons RAF lining the runway at RAF Keevil on the evening of 5 June 1944 before
emplaning paratroops of the 5th Parachute Brigade Group for the invasion of Normandy With the departure of the
Americans, the RAF used Keevil beginning in March 1944 for 196 and 299 Squadron Short Stirling glider tugs of No. 38
Group RAF arrived followed by a large number of Horsa gliders, crewed by Army pilots of the Glider Pilot Regiment.
The RAF Stirling aircraft were crewed by RAF, RCAF, RAAF, RNZAF and SAAF personnel and were engaged in SOE and SAS
drops. largely in France, and in glider towing. Their involvement in the Normandy invasion of France and Operation
Market-Garden is well remembered by Keevil and Steeple Ashton villagers. Casualties of army and air force personnel
were heavy and a number of aircraft were lost.
With the end of military control, Keevil airfield is virtually complete with all of its runways, perimeter track and
many of the hardstands still in place. It is used occasionally for British Army and RAF exercises. The airfield is
still frequently used by the RAF for training purposes such as air drops and parachuting, the gate is always locked
and access is restricted to authorized key holders only. Ref ~ http://www.wdrcfc.org.uk/wp/about-2/clubrules/
Since 1992 it has been home to the Bannerdown Gliding Club, an RAF Gliding and Soaring Association Club, affiliated to
RAF Brize Norton since the closure of nearby RAF station at Lyneham. The airfield is also used as a motorsport circuit
for various events. It is also the home of the Warminster and District Radio Control flying club.
In September 1994 the Keevil Society, organised by Paul Vingoe, held a Commemorative Day to mark the 50th anniversary
of the D-Day and Arnhem operations and to dedicate a memorial to all who served at Keevil, especially those who flew
from there and lost their lives.
