File Description:
This livery represents a fictional "What if" repaint of the magnificent payware Grumman F9F-5 by VertigoStudios in a Royal Netherlands Navy Livery. The aircraft resembles what it would look like if the Dutch government chose the Grumman F9F Panther over the Hawker Seahawk as their primary attack fighter operating from the sole Dutch Navy aircraft carrier from the late 40-ies till the early 60-ies; the HRMS Karel Doorman (CV, R81, Colossus Class). The Dutch navy operated two other aircraft carriers prior to this one (small MAC escort carriers, which were basically modified tankers), but the R81 was the first and only real aircraft carrier ever operational within the Royal Netherlands Navy, and to operate jet-fighters from. This particular livery of the F9F is in a typical grey & duck-egg green pattern resembling all Dutch naval aircraft of that era, carrier- and land based. This livery with the "V" marking denotes that the aircraft has NAS Valkenburg as home base instead of the (back then) available aircraft carrier "Karel Doorman", of which all aircraft were marked with a "D". You need the payware VertigoStudios F9F for FSX in order to use this repaint.

Active ILS - Niagara International Airport KBUF

File Description:
As most know initiating the ILS at certain airports for AI Aircraft or User Planes is not a function at this time when using AFCAD2 if visibilty falls below 3 miles. This is do to the somewhat complex XML code that has to be written for NAVAIDS and then the compiling into a bgl file. If you add a new ILS runway to an airport such as KBUF (rwy 32) only the user aircraft can use this runway when visibility falls below 3 miles if a GPS/LDA is unavailable. ATC will no longer use 32 ILS runway for AI Traffic or User Aircraft (by default) because FS9 sees it as a visual runway and will now vector your Planes back to 5/23 ILS which is also being used as a Terminal Departure Runway. The KBUF_ILS_jv.bgl file adds all NAVAIDS for making 32 a Precision Instrument Runway by adding all the radar fixes for both the ILS/DME approach portion and the proper missed approach procedures as per current published plates for runway 32. See the readme for what's new at the KBUF airport. **** AFCAD2 included for FS9 default scenery. ****

Mesh South America / MeSA B13

File Description:
FSX Mesh South America Project: This terrain mesh file is a part of a whole project covering all the Continent of South America and some islands, divided in tiles identified in a map by its column (letters) and rows (numbers). Those files were multi-LOD compiled from 90m SRTM2 source data, reprocessed with 3DEM to remove voids and spikes, providing a 76.4m (LOD9) horizontal resolution topography intended for use only in FSX updated with SP1. Although not well documented, to improve performance, the updated FSX loads DEM files in threads and only the closer terrain (about 5-10 NM from the point of view) is rendered in high detail, while at far distances FSX shows up its default low resolution mesh, when there is not a third part terrain mesh compiled in all others intermediate level of details (multi-LOD). THIS FILE: FSX_MeSA_B13 (Column B x Row 13) covers the area inside the boundaries: N = 50º 37,5' S; S = 56º 15' S; W = 82º 30' W; E = 75º 0' W; AUTHORS: Hely Heck Junior - Magrao ( [email protected] ) and Jose Lobo ( [email protected] ) TerraBrasilis: www.terra-brasilis.org

Airport Expansion for LSZH Zurich (Default FS2004 Only).

File Description:
I decided to expand this airport and make several changes to it, as I was sick of being held in long take off queues and being told to go around all the time with Runway 16/34 being used for take offs and landings all the time (even though 14/32 and 10/32 were open). The changes made are as follows: Runway 14/32 completely withdrawn. Runway 16/34 renamed 16R/34L and now used for departures only. New Runway 16L/34R (8,000 feet) for arrivals only (Equipped with ILS frequencies). Runway surfaces are now Asphalt. All taxiways are concrete, and comprise of just a centre line (My own personal preference). 148 parking spaces in total. (77 small, 34 medium, 14 large, 5 Cargo, 18 General Aviation). I have decided to assign only Swiss aircraft to gates, as this is obviously the main airline serving this airport. All taxiways have lighting to make it easier to find your way around at night. For FS2004 use only. This AFCAD works best with the 'Airport Environment Upgrade v7' scenery which is available here at AVSIM (aeu7.zip).

"Twenty Thousand Miles in a Flying-boat", by Sir Alan Cobham

File Description:
In 1927, Sir Alan Cobham, pioneer of aerial refuelling and adventuring aviator, undertook a survey flight around Africa. He was accompanied by his wife, Gladys, and four crewmen: Worrall, the second pilot; Green and Conway, engineers; and Bonnett, cameraman. The aircraft was a Short S.5 Singapore MkI, a twin-engined, single-fin, open cockpit version of the later four-engine, triple-finned, closed-cockpit Singapore MkIII which entered RAF service. There was only ever one MkI and when Cobham completed his journey it was returned to the Air Ministry, who had loaned it to Sir Alan. The adventurers departed Rochester, on the River Medway, in the morning of 17th. November 1927 and returned in May of 1928,after a trip of over 20,000 air-miles and one which involved numerous trials and tribulations, delays and frustrations. The book, published in 1931, provides in-depth detail of the flight so what I've done with this package is to create a blog that will provide updates for each day of the journey undertaken by Cobham and crew. To relive this epic, all you need to do is to go here:- http://henrycrun.spaces.live.com/default.aspx Remember...NO nav-aids or comms! :)

Puerto Rico AI Package

File Description:
This archive contains repaints and fictional flightplans for a variety of aircraft that operate in Puerto Rico. There are textures for Corporate Air Embraer 120s (5), the Air Flamenco Fleet of Islanders, MN Aviation Cessna C208Bs, Vieques Air Link Islanders, Linear Air C208Bs, CapCana C208Bs, the blue Roblex Islander "El Bebe", some Air Tahoma Convairs and a USDOJ SAAB2000 that operates repatriation flights and prisoner transport. There's also the CIA ATR42 that operates flights around the Caribbean and into Guantanamo Bay. Some seasonal aircraft are also here (operating to St Barths in the high season), these have a variety of real-world private registrations and there's the Islander N555DM too. There is alsoa PR Government (natural Resources) C208B. There are also afcads for the airports in PR, some more accurate than others. Many of these airplanes operate out of Aguadilla or Isla Grande (TJIG). The flightplans also reference some aircraft available elsewhere on Avsim (other Vieques paints for example, and the Roblex SD360). Some flightplans are also separated out by airline if you want to install thems separately using the MRAI installer (Corporate Air, Vieques and Air Flamenco).
