| Airbus A320 Family CFM56-5A/B Realistic Soundpack |
|
File Description:
I am proud to release my new and final Airbus A320 CFM56-5A/B sound pack for Flight Simulator. These sounds are intended for the lovely Project Airbus model, but will work with other models. I made this soundpack as accurate as possible using real and digital recordings, after watching many videos of A320s, and my ability of perfect pitch. Once you load your aircraft with these sounds, you'll hear the APU System and Fans in the cockpit. You start the engines and hear the PTU system transferring the hydraulics from the Nr. 1 Engine to the Nr. 2 Engine for start-up. This sound was recorded from a real A320. You hear the humming sound of the CFM56 at idle. You spool up the engines at takeoff then hear the famous CFM56 buzzsaw-like sound of the engine's fans. Once you lift off and put up the landing gear you will hear a chime from the cabin. (Just a little realistic enthusiastic touch to add to the sounds, as in real videos you hear this sound every time after takeoff in the planes.) It features realistic cockpit sounds like the autopilot deactivation sound, stall buzzer, overspeed beeper, gear up warning sound buzzer, flaps, rolling, and touch-down. Please try these sounds out because you'll surely be impressed! :)

| RNAS Henstridge (HMS Dipper) |
|
File Description:
Royal Naval Air Station Henstridge or RNAS Henstridge (HMS Dipper) is a former Fleet Air Arm base located 7 miles (11 km) west of Shaftesbury, Dorset (Now Somerset) and 12.4 miles (20.0 km) east of Yeovil, Somerset in South West England.
The main part of the land (355 acres) was purchased in August 1941, after which building of the airfield and the marsh lane accommodation site commenced, it was commissioned on April 1, 1943 as HMS Dipper, principally as number 2 naval fighter school, on the 11th September 1942, another 18 acres was acquired at the adjoining gibbs marsh area for an aircraft repair and maintenance site. The design and lay-out of the airfield was quite unique, having 5 runways, 2 of these being east west lay-out (07-25) both 1000 yards long, the northern runway incorporated a dummy deck landing strip, complete with under-ground arresting gear with four above ground arrestor wires, which was a duplicate of that installed on HMS Implacable for training of aircraft carrier landings, these mainly being carried out with the Seafire, a naval version of the spitfire with folding wings. The site also had its own cinema and stage hall
March 1952 the airfield became inactive and was placed under care and maintenance, during 1953 Air whaling (now Bristow group) used the facilities for repairs to the whaling fleet of helicopters until moving out in June 1958.June 1957 it was finally closed as a naval establishment, from 1958-1960 the entire site was sold off. 27 June 1980 the BBC purchased the whole site and applied for planning permission to erect at the airfield a shortwave radio station consisting of 21 self-supporting towers holding aerial arrays and ancillary buildings on a 300-acre site. The station would transmit overseas radio services to Eastern Europe, the Soviet Union and perhaps South America the application failed and the BBC sold the land during January 1987 The airfield is also the home of the wessex strut, a general aviation club formed in January 1977, which holds an annual fly in and other events their first fly-in was on 17 April 1977 and attracted 107 aircraft. As of today the only usable runway is the north 07-25 runway, extant with the concrete dummy deck, and the underground machinery chamber, it is also the home to a large number of light aviation enthusiasts aircraft as well as the Yakolevs aerobatic display team and the Dorset and Somerset air ambulance
The current airfield is operated by EGHS and is an unlicensed airfield. The only usable runway is 07/25 tarmac/concrete 750 mts long x 6 mtr wide. Henstridge radio can be contacted on 130.250 MHz, it can be found at the south eastern stub of the Yeovilton MATZ

| Cork Airport File 1.0 |
|
File Description:
This is the first file of a few files I will be releasing for Cork Airport Ireland {EICK} in FS2002. This is just a small, basic Afcad file to correct the parking at Cork airport. This Afcad file will make all the aircraft at Cork airport {including your aircraft}, park sideways against the building as in real life at Cork airport, instead of parking facing the building. All the starting points will also change to a sideways heading of 166. This will also change the gate numbers and will stop the atc using the term 'parking' all the time. It will change gate 1 to medium, gate 2 to heavy, gate 3 to small, gate 4 to medium {cargo}, parking 5 to ramp GA small, parking 6 to ramp GA small, and parking 7 to ramp GA small. All runways {17/35,07/25}, taxiways, traffic, and atc have been left alone. Parking and buildings are a mess at Cork airport in FS2002, therefore, the file is not perfect. I plan to release further traffic and scenery files for Cork airport in the future. This file requires AFCAD by Lee Swordy. Details of where to get it within download.
The progressive taxi instructions will also not change, neither will the pink line on the taxiways. The pink line will not turn sideways at the gates, but you must turn and park sideways at a heading of around 166 to park properly.

| B58 Hustler for X-Plane 6.4/6.51 |
|
File Description:
B58 Hustler v1.0 for X-Plane 6.40/6.51 - development of the B58 began in 1951 with 161 planes delivered to SAC between 1960 and 1970. Americas first supersonic jet bomber (mach 2+) the B58 was designed for high speed delivery of nuclear or conventional weapons from long range as a compliment to the B52 subsonic bomber. One of the most sophisticated planes ever developed, the B58 set many speed and altitude records some of which remain unbroken today. With a gross takeoff weight of 163000 lbs the B58 could cary as much as 101000 lbs of fuel (that's almost 60% of the gross weight). One of the most computerized aircraft ever built, the B58 is amazingly easy to fly without any computer assistance (except the one used to run the x-plane simulator). Go to the attached web sit for the fascinating story of the B58 Hustler.

| P51B Mustang War Weary |
|
File Description:
A repaint of www.donationware.net 's P-51B Muatang (must have that to use this repaint).
I painted the design and then weathered the whole thing (it's not so dirty looking in the book).
One thing I had to do which is probably not correct is not join the thin blue and white arc going from the blue and white nose paint underneath the nose (which on the book's side view appears to be joined to the other side's arc). Due to some texture-mapping issues in the area under the nose , it would have been almost impossible to get a good looking joined arc so I made them both end in points on each side.
In the side view of the picture I based this on, the wing gun ports are even covered (ie the wing leading edge is flush and without bumps or holes). Some of the text fonts appear to be unlike usual US fonts for the time ( I had to make the large W, D and 2 by hand without a font)
Also something I could not alter is the canopy which was extended in the real plane making another seat for an additional person.
The book has it shown with the following text ;
Field-modified P-51B , WW (War Weary)
43-12193 , 335th FS , 4th FG , Debden, England
June, 1945. Overall Insignia Red with Light Blue
anti-glare panel.

| Carrier Division Two off Cape Cod |
|
File Description:
This scenery places the two Yorktown-class aircraft carriers of the pre-WW2 U.S. Navy with a screen of four cruisers at sea 100 miles due east of Provincetown, Massachusetts, on the tip of Cape Cod. The ships are the Virtual Navy's Task Force 16 relocated and with the Hornet posing as the Yorktown. This package contains the carriers, cruisers, ship wakes, AFCAD files for all six ships and Arrestor Cables catch zones for the carriers. It provides start points on both carriers, on the catapults of all four cruisers, and in the water between the carriers for seaplanes. Also included are flight starts for Paul Clawson's Curtiss SOC Seagull on the catapults of the cruisers and for the plane of your choice on the carriers, and authentic repaints of the SOC for aircraft assigned to the cruisers plus one for the personal aircraft of the Admiral commanding CarDiv2. There is also a selection of Golden Wings splash screens featuring the ships and planes of CarDiv2. Carrier Division 2 is being released in celebration of Golden Wings 3, but works just as well in a standard FS9 installation. Catapult floatplane operations require the Carrier Operations Gauge Package and Paul Clawson's Curtiss SOC Seagull or another catapult floatplane. Ships and wake effects by The Virtual Navy, modified AFCAD files, SOC repaints, flights and ship placement by Mick Morrissey. A big Thank you to the Virtual Navy for allowing this use of their ships!

| Piaggio P-180 v2.0 |
|
File Description:
www.mariopilot.6x.to
What's new in version 2.0:
1) gMAX re-formatted model: FS-X compatibility, and new animations.
2) Completely new Avionics 100% XML formatted
3) new ultra-fine tuned flight dynamics
4) Hi-res virtual cockpit with 3-D throttles and 3-D virtual cabin.
5) Lots more...
Thanks to Andrew Spring of www.p166.com!! The Piaggio P-180 Avanti is a Luxury Jetprop. Its design is the result of a "thinking outside the box" project philosophy. It means that building techniques are standard while aerodynamics are unique for it's kind. It features a three lifting surface design, laminar flow wing and twin pusher turboprop configuration. Passenger comfort features the possiiblity of standing in feet inside the plane, low noise due to pusher propellers and "Pininfarina" designed arrangement. Performances are unique too, cruising at 395 KTAS (260 KIAS) at 28000 ft, a jet-like speed, being the P-180 a twin turboprop. The result is a 40% reduced operational cost respect to a jet of similar size, and 30% less respect to a similar size turboprop, all at same price of a small Jet. This model is 804 Kbs with c.a. 19000 polygons in c.a.170 assemblies. Features Clickable Dynamic Photortreal VC with Night Lighting, night lighted internals, Photoreal 2D Cockpit, Engine start Effect, advanced FDE, Customizable Payloads. **READ NOTES BEFORE FLYING**(README.TXT, P180_REF.HTM AND P180_CHECK.HTM, also available as reference and checklist in FS kneeboard...) WORKS IN FS9

The Motor Club of Talachoochi, Florida have driven from their home town to Panama. (long ride!!!)
Once there they, against the advise of many locals, desided to go to the Darien Jungle, to a place known as
"Blue Snake". This is deep in the jungle near the Colombian border. Roads here are really scarse and very dangerous.
You guessed it............the dudes are now totally lost!!!!!!..............
SAR authorities have been alerted and you must go in your DH to find them. The weather is poor during this time
of the year so the mission is dangerous.-------Flight III.....Holyday to Great Fishing Holes----
The Panama Jungle Yearly Fishing contest is about to start and you have been hired by a bunch of Fishermen from the States, actually 12 of them.
They are to be flown to 3 Hotels in the Jungle where the tournaments will be held. Beware, thunderstorms have been predicted for today!! Have
