Super VC10 Panel upgrade Part 8.2

File Description:
This is an important additional update for David Maltby's Super VC10 model regarding the engines, also requiring download of the previous updates 1 to 8 and 8.1. This update overcomes the bug that Microsoft introduced (left behind) in FS9 with regard to engine ignition (but corrected in FSX). In FS9 engine ignition is hard coded to 22%n2. Not all engines can be modelled in that way so in effect the ignition sequence has to be made to run "outside" the sim. Niot a new concept by any means but it does make the coding much more complex as lots of other factors have to be taken into account. In reality the RR Conway engines light-up at 11-12%n2 with the ignition being held on until about 24%n2. This has now been correctly modelled. The hot start procedure has also been re-modelled to fit the new code. In the process of coding i noticed that one of the engines tends to run a bit on the hot side so keep a watchfull eye.

USAAF PT-17 Stearman (N38940)

• USAAF_PT17_Stearman_N38940_1.jpg
• USAAF_PT17_Stearman_N38940_2.jpg

File Description: This is a repaint only, for the payware Vertigo Studios Stearman Vol.1 set. This repaint depicts the restored Stearman PT-17 N38940, owned/operated by Paul Bennett, based at Priory Farm, Norfolk, England. The aircraft was manufactured as USAAF 41-8263, and from 1941 until February 1944 the aircraft was used continually, despite being involved in 4 separate training accidents, with a 5th accident taking it out of service althogether. The remains of the aircraft were restored, with the aircraft first flying again in 1977, and later, sold to Paul Bennett in 1992, the aircraft was restored again, to factory-original award-winning condition and finished in the same all-silver color scheme it would have had in 1944. The contrast between the metal and fabric surfaces on this aircraft is period-authentic, as although the fabric surfaces were coated in silver dope, the metal panels were anodized and left bare. Two versions of the repaint are included, with one featuring the temporary 445th Bomb Group tail markings the aircraft sported in 2006.

WASP PT-17 Stearman (N59293)

Images related to this file:

• WASP_PT17_Stearman_N59293_1.jpg

File Description: This is a repaint only, for the payware Vertigo Studios Stearman Vol.1 set. This repaint depicts the restored Stearman PT-17 N59293, owned/operated by Andrew and Mike Porter, based at Spring Lake, New Jersey. The aircraft was manufactured as USAAF 41-25714 and was used continually from June 1942 until June 1945. During WWII the aircraft had multiple assignments, one of which included Avenger Field in Sweetwater, Texas, home of the WASP (Women's Airforce Service Pilots), where it was based from February 1943 until August 1944. Sold surplus after the war, the aircraft was used as a crop duster in New Mexico all the way until 1981. Starting in 2006, the aircraft was restored to factory-original award-winning condition, and painted in the same markings it wore while stationed at Avenger Field, flying as a tribute to all of the WASP pilots. (In one of the aircraft's other WWII training assignments, Donald Strait flew this aircraft during flight training and would go on to become a double-ace flying P-51's with the 361st Fighter Squadron).

Metro Oakland Int'l (KOAK) with Active Crosswind Runways

File Description:
A high spec AFCAD2 for the default FS2004 Metro Oakland Int'l Airport (KOAK). This afcad has been built from scratch using FAA Charts, various aerial photographs and information from the Airport Website. All runways feature real life lengths/widths and include overrun areas. All taxiways are named and all aprons are reworked to be as real as possible according to photos. All gates are named and have airlines assigned to them. As per real life, only Southwest Airlines will use Terminal 2, all other airlines being allocated to Terminal 1. The Fedex and UPS aprons are represented and can accomodate up to 20 cargo aircraft. The final parking area is random GA parking to the north of the airport. Overflow parking is also available for rush hour periods. This airport now features a tower view and also upgraded night and approach lighting. Finally, by using the crosswind runway technique, runways 9L/27R, 9R/27L and 11/29 can all be used simultaniously for take-off and landing. Runway 15/33 is closed as it is not used in real life. Enjoy!!

New Elevation data GeoTiles.tag for FU3 Seattle Region

File Description:
The test elevation meshes for Switzerland and UK Region using the data from NASA SRTM_V2 program ( 3 arc second resolution, about 90m grid ) was so successful that I have tried to do a new elevation file for the Seattle Region using the 1 arc second elevation from the same source ( US area only ) 30m grid resolution. Each elevation point ( 64m grid in FU3 ) is now converted from the UTM coordinate to the exact Lat/Long WGS84 coordinate and for this point the elevation data are picked up and stored. The Geotiles.tag file residing in the /region/seattle/geos/ folder contains this data. To benefit from this new elevation experience FIRST RENAME YOUR ORIGINAL GEOTILES.DAT FILE INTO XGEOTILES.DAT then copy the geotiles.tag from this zip into the geos folder of the Seattle region. Start FU3 and enjoy the new perfect fitted landscape. Best way is to start directly from the air and not from an airport then all airport are no more flat, have hills and holes. Models and runways are floating over the ground or are into the ground.
