| Teslin CYZW in the Yukon, Canada |

File Description:
Teslin is a village on the Alaska Highway around 85 miles east of Whitehorse, on the banks of the very long Teslin Lake and where there is a sizeable bridge across an offshoot of the lake. The Hudson Bay trading company established a post there in 1903. The current population is a rather meagre 120 or so and the only reason I am making this scenery is that I know one of the 120. This scenery, in addition to the terrain, village, bridge, and airport items also modifies the Alaska Highway. The AI includes a school excursion trip on a chartered Air North Hawker Siddeley 748 on Saturday. There are no scheduled flights to the field. The runway is now around 5,600 feet of gravel aligned 08-26 and with VASI at both ends. It is lit with runway lighting on the tops of traffic cones, and you will need to download the lighting library from my earlier postings of either Allakaket Lights or Anaktuvuk Lights earlier this week. A note here about my scenery making. There will not be many more to follow this as I am almost at the end of the photos I either took or found for scenery purposes, plus I expect to move on from FS9 at some point during next year.

| Kaltag KAL in Alaska |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Kaltag is a small village on the west bank of the Yukon River, around 65 miles east of the coast at Unalakleet and about 40 miles south of where the river turns from north-south to east-west, east being upstream towards the distant Fairbanks. The population is just under 200 and living from fishing and the land. The airfield is close by and has a gravel runway aligned 21-3 and just under 5,000 feet long. Apart from the airfield itself, and it's buildings, this scenery modifies the local land class, adds village buildings while reducing the village size to reality, and creates a new airfield background. Kaltag is located on the edge of three different airlines coverage areas, and is served by Bering Air from the northwest, ERA from the southwest, and also by Wright Air from Fairbanks in the east. These are included in the AI.
A note here about my scenery making. This is post number 507 and there will not be many more to follow this as I am almost at the end of the photos I either took or found for scenery purposes. There is a limit to what can be located online and I have already been making use of the little there is; eg Unalakleet. So, if you are near an airport (preferably Canadian or Alaskan) and have a camera..... Let me know.

| Z19O - Hamat Airbase - Batroun, Lebanon |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Hamat is a village near the coast of Lebanon, around 25 miles north of Beirut. The airport runway was built during the civil war to the west of Hamat in the late 1970's, between Hamat and another village called Wuajh Al Hajar. The intention was have an alternative to Beirut airport, which could be (and often was) closed by shell fire from any or all of the sides involved in the civil war, or by bombing by those who were not directly part of the civil war but occasionally joined in. It has been used for drag racing, occasional freefall parachuting (this may continue) and is now an army base with mostly helicopter use. The runway is around 5,600 feet of asphalt, 90 feet wide and aligned 02/20. There is no lighting. The apron is set well back from the runway and has hangars at each end; one set is four hangars long, and at the other end of the apron there are three hangars. There are also the remains of some radar to the west of the apron, bombed (in 1982?). The runway has been repositioned and the surrounding landclass modified to reduce one village to it's approximate actual size and to create a second village which was missing entirely. An intrusive road has been deleted, and the airfield grass area also modified.

| Avro York (Base Package) |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Re-upload. Used variously as a long-range freighter and/or passenger airliner, the
York was designed around the wings, engines, undercarriage, and tail
assembly of the Lancaster bomber, adding a box-shaped fuselage and a
center fin. Of a total of 253 production aircraft built, 208 initially
went to the RAF, 25 to BOAC, 12 to BSAA, and 5 to FAMA (Flota Area
Mercante Argentina). Specially fitted VIP versions were used by Winston
Churchill and General de Gaulle. After completing 29,000 sorties in the
Berlin Airlift of 1948-9, many RAF Yorks were sold to charter operators
such as Aviation Traders, Dan Air, Hunting Clan, Lancashire Aircraft
Corporation, and Skyways of London. Some of these re-acquired RAF
roundels for "trooping flights" to the Middle East in the 1950s. From
1955 onward, the Yorks were gradually withdrawn, although some soldiered
on until 1964. Two such veterans have been preserved as museum exhibits
in Duxford and Cosford in the UK. Gmax exterior model and textures by
Manfred Jahn, FDE by Paul Edwards, panel by Phil Perrott (Alphasim),
Paul Edwards, and Lars Fors. A dedicated AI version has been released
separately. The textures in this package represent MW207 of 246 Squadron
RAF, BOAC G-AGNP ("Manchester"), and Skyways G-AHEY. The Flight dynamics are
for a York fitted with Merlin-500 series engines.

Grumman HU-16 Albatross 2.1
Greg Pepper, Michael Verlin
May 18, 2012
I am privileged to be honored with the custodianship of this model.
Greg Pepper is no longer with us. I wish to honor his memory and I've made a few modifcations to enhance this aircraft.
WHAT'S NEW FOR 2.1
The flight model is the most significant change. The flight model has been enhanced by the use of Jerry Beckwith's AirWrench.
The performance of the Albatross is now much closer to the parameters published for it. I've also adjusted the contact points for the hull.
Please make sure you adjust the fuel and payload before flying. This is a very heavy aircraft, and will be very sluggish if you attempt flight with full tanks and a full payload.
I've also added a few liveries, and modified several others. The colors and lettering of the U.S. Navy versions have been revised. The font the Navy uses is USN Long Beach. The paint colors are accurate now as well. You will also find new spin prop textures.
I've also slightly revised the original U.S. Air Force HU-16B and two of the U.S. Coast Guard liveries.
New for this release: U.S. Navy VXE6 UF-1L triphibian that served in the Antarctic, Chalk's G-111 and two new private liveries.

File Description:
Chennai scenery has been in demand for long time and here it is ,the file also includes " the ACTIVE RNAV�1 (GNSS or DME/DME/IRU) SIDs and STARs. It also has the extended runway and the extended taxiway M3. Definitely the screen shots will help you decide if its worth downloading.T his will also work in FSX. Inside you will find a zip file that reads-"Asia.zip" if you are FSX user you will have to add this addition folder to database (FSX) 2-3 buildings used are default FS2004 object which are not in FSX . This additional will enable that thing previously if you have downloaded Chatrapatti shivaji International Scenery that I uploaded for everyone made the FSX users unhappy , because they must have found few objects hanging in air or something's missing. This asia folder included in the scenery will solve the trouble. Airport Features include- NEW models of taxiway edge fixtures, Parkable Hanger for General aviation light aircrafts. Just roll in and out sticking to the ctr guide line. You can even begin simulation parked inside the hanger .Don't worry , you won't be disappointed .. check out the pics. Oh! you'll also find surfaces painted " paraphernalia " kind of stuff at all taxiway- runway intersection and surface painting for stands numbers at one of the apron. stands 1-7 .

| Mountain View CPZ3 in Ontario, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is Mountain View, a small RCAF airfield at the eastern end of Lake Ontario on Prince Edward Island, some 40 miles west of Kingston. Mountain View is used for training during the summer months, and part of this training is for C-130 crews, who practice landing on rough or unprepared landing strips. The crews are based at Trenton, which is a large base 10 miles to the northwest on the mainland. There are (or were, I haven't seen it recently) numerous parked and ancient fighter planes such T-33's and Canadair Tutors; these could also have possibly been used for summer training or perhaps were just stored. Last summer there were only two hangars left standing; in 2002 there were five. In real life you would be on the lookout not only for C-130's but also (at certain times during the summer) for parachutists and also gliders. This airfield is one that you will fly over and not land on; I confess that I have cheated with the length of the 06L-24R gravel "practice" runway, so that it became possible for the FS version of a touch-n-go with a C-130 to be completed without using the grass. The aerial photograph shows the new "practice" gravel runway under construction.

| ZSGS - Zhuhai Janwan Airport - Zhuhai, China |
|
File Description:
The Zhuhai Sanzao airport (ZGSD/ZUH, China), close to Macao, was built on request of someone who found it included in the FMC of PMDGs 737NGX, but missed in FSX. I used ADE and the Google based old version 2 of Plan-G (thanks to both authors) and some charts being available in the internet. However, it is equipped with standard buildings which are roughly adapted to the real dimensions well. Lighting, windsocks, taxisigns and moving jetways. Of course I added both ILS as well. There is a big exhibition apron on the airport which is modeled but blocked for AI traffic. You will see the lines of the taxiways nevertheless. The latest temporary chart (Nov 2012) shows a third apron which is not realised and I'm not planning to do so (obviously the whole site is still under construction).
As being built on a FSX island (which is now a peninsula) and default coast lines not fitting to the real position of the airport (Rwy05 was hanging in the water) I decided to compromise in a way that I corrected the area in the vicinity of the airport but respected the remaining part as it was in the default scenery. The attached pictures should give an impression even if I'm not using the pure default scenery. Therefore this little patch should be compatible to advanced mesh sceneries.

| Hawker Typhoon JP975 RAF 609 Sqn PR-S |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the Aerplane Heaven Hawker Typhoon in the colors of Typhoon JP975 as it may have looked on the 19th of August 1944, when it crashed near Saint-Maclou-la-Brière, a small village near Le Havre. JP975 was piloted by pilot Officer James Stellin RNZAF, who was flying with 609 squadron, based in Thorney Island airfield. On the 19th of August, 609 had been attacking the Falaise pocket when James Stellin was probably hit by flak while attacking ground targets. He tried to fly back to England, but was losing altitude and on realising he was probably going to crash in the middle of the village, managed to divert to crash at the last moment. He jumped from his aircraft, but was too low and his chute did not open. He was buried by the thankful civilians, who celebrated his sacrifice each year and have named the square in front of the church 'Place Stellin'. More on the last mission by Pilot Officer Stellin can be found here: https://nzhistory.govt.nz/page/kiwi-pilots-sacrifice-saves-french-village. It is not known what the aircraft code of JP975 was on the day of the crash, so I have opted for PR-S, for Stellin. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by Aeroplane Heaven.

| Southwestern British Columbia Airport Corrections |
|
File Description:
As shorelines, water bodies, roads, railways and other features become more accurate in addon scenery, inaccuracies in airport placement become apparent. Although Microsoft did an excellent job of using published data to place airports, the published information is not always accurate. Some airports in the area of interest were misplaced by as much as 850m, thus conflicting with water and/or roadways. This release corrects Canadian airports in South-western British Columbia, in LOD5 cell 15x14 (915140). This area covers a portion of Vancouver Island from Duncan to Victoria, and the BC Mainland as far east as Douglas Lake and north of Pemberton. In this region CAK3, CAL3, CBT6, CYHE, CYLY, and CYPS are corrected, and Bruce Ellison has kindly modified his CAM3 for inclusion; see separate readme document for details. All these airports have been activated for AI use. A few buildings that may conflict from roads have been removed from CYNJ. The unrealistically large flatten and airport polygon at CYYJ is reduced in size. Airport features that end up in the water have been removed from CYVR and the overly large flatten there reduced. Some Rwy12 goodies have been tossed in as well, but if these are not important to the user, it is not necessary to have Rwy12 installed. Ultimate Terrain or similar accurate hydrology and roads recommended. FSGenesis 38m mesh or other high quality terrain mesh recommended.
