| Cambrian Airways Douglas DC3's |
|
File Description:
Cambrian Airways roots extend back to 1935 when Cambrian Air Services was founded at Pengham Moor airfield, Cardiff to provide flight training and pleasure flights. Operations were suspended upon the outbreak of war in 1939 but resumed again in January 1946. Operations grew steadily and DH Rapide and Dove aircraft were added to the fleet. A move to Rhoose Airport in 1954 allowed Cambrian to consider the purchase of larger aircraft. In November 1954, the first Dakota was delivered with the second arriving in January 1955. With the introduction of Dakotas, Cambrian Air Services changed its name to Cambrian Airways in May 1955. Over the years Cambrian owned ten different DC3's having a maximum of eight of the type on fleet at any one time and six remained in service with them until the type was retired in 1969. This set of repaints shows seven of the different airfames in five different liveries that were used during Cambrian's operation of the type.

| Air Anglia Douglas DC-3's |
|
File Description:
Air Anglia was founded on July 21, 1970, as an amalgamation of three companies, Norfolk Airways, Anglia Air Charter and Rig Air. The airline started life with one DC-3 (G-AMPZ) and no scheduled services. Soon after, the airline lodged application for its first scheduled service from Norwich to Edinburgh and Aberdeen. And, in October 1970, it announced its first service to the continent, linking Norwich with Rotterdam.
To co-incide with the increasing network, the airline acquired three more DC-3's, G-ANTD, G-AOBN and G-AGJV. In 1972, the first jet-prop Fokker F27 Friendship arrived, and gradually these faster and more sophisticated aircraft replaced the DC-3s. G-AOBN and G-AMPZ were the first to be sold, with G-AGJV soldiering on flying scheduled weekday cargo service from Aberdeen - Amsterdam - Norwich and return. G-ANTD was broken up for spares at Norwich.

File Description:
This utility is a bash shell script written to generate an airports.txt file used for AI Flightplans from an existing FlightPlans.txt file. Using an airports.txt file that only includes the airports used within a flightplan can dramatically reduce the traffic bgl file size for FS2004.

| Macedonian Aviation Douglas DC-3 |
|
File Description:
Macedonian Aviation was formed as a charter operator in the summer of 1972 with a Dove and one DC-3 G-AMPO based at Luton and later, Southend Airports. By February 1973 the Dove had been sold and operations continued with the DC-3. Operations steadily grew and by December 1973 charter flights started to be flown in the oil rig support business from Aberdeen. With this work increasing Macedonian looked for further DC-3s to expand its operations, and in March 1974 it purchased British Island Airways' remaining three DC-3's. The first of these, G-AMHJ and G-AMRA were in service at Aberdeen Airport by May 1974 and G-AMPO was moved back to Southend to continue charter flights from there. The oil companies were beginning to insist on turbo-prop aircraft for the transportation of their personnel. Macedonian started negotiations to replace the DC-3's with Viscount or Heralds, but these negotians were unsuccessful so operations continued with the DC-3's. The third ex BIA DC-3 G-AMSV eventually arrived at Southend in September 1974 but this aircraft never entered service with Macedonian. In November 1974 all aircraft were flown back to Southend and Macedonian ceased all flying having been unable to raise any finance to support turbo-prop operations, and the DC-3's were sold. This repaint is of G-AMPO. Requires default Douglas DC-3.

| Standard Telephone and Cables Limited Douglas DC-3 |
|
File Description:
Corporate owned DC-3 G-AJRY. In October 1962 the aircraft was purchased by the International Telegraph Corporation of the United Kingdom. On 19 November 1962 upon transfer to the UK she was allocated a new identity G-ASDX. The British ARB then noticed that the constructor's number for G-AJRY was the same as this new aircraft and assuming that G-AJRY had returned to the UK gave it that registration instead of G-ASDX! The aircraft worked under a subsidiary company Standard Telephones and Cables Ltd. STC had for many years been a leading supplier of airborne radio equipment to Armed Forces and commercial Airlines world-wide. In June 1970 it was sold to TD Keegan and was operated by Transmeridian Air Cargo. Requires default Douglas DC-3.

| Strathair Douglas DC-3 |
|
File Description:
Strathair was formed in 1962 based at Strathallen Castle, Scotland. In May 1966 a DC-3 G-APPO was acquired with the intention of operating scheduled services. It was based at Edinburgh but did little flying apart from crew training and an ocasional charter flight. By October of that year it had moved on to new owners. In April 1967, another DC-3 G-AOGZ was purchased and this was considerably more active than the previous one. It was kept busy on passenger and feight charter flights and also operated scheduled services on behalf of British United out of Blackpool. 1967 saw the aircraft move to Aberdeen where it was used on oil-rig support flights on behalf of B.E.A. to Sumburgh and Teesside. The DC-3 continued operating this kind of work until March 1969 when it was sold. This repaint is of G-AOGZ. Requires default Douglas DC-3.
