KLM 1998 AI Package

File Description:
By 1998, the KLM/Northwest alliance was in full swing, and KLM was serving MSP, DTW, and even MEM daily with it's own metal while Northwest took over from KLM from BOS, IAD, and some other cities. KLM had a vast route network spanning the globe, serving much of Africa and the Middle East with many "tag on" routes onward from Amsterdam. By 1998, KLM was flying the MD-11, 747-200SUD(stretched upper deck), 747-200SUD Combi, 747-300 Combi, 747-400, 747-400 Combi, 767-300ER, 737-300, 737-400, and 6 mainline Fokker 100s which were short lived before going to KLM UK in late 1998 then on to CityHopper. Unfortunately, in the OAG, KLM only specified if a 747 was a combi or not(as in 747=744/742 while 74M can be a combi version of the 742,743, or 744) and did not differentiate between 737-300s and 737-400s. I did my best using what data I had to make the routes realistic, but the aircraft numbers at least are correct except for some extra 767s and 737s that you may remove if you wish. I also had issues making sure the TPE flights were all operated by "KLM Asia" 747s, so I ended up assigning 1 extra 747(I have 5, in real life there were 4) the Asia livery to ensure that you do not see a standard KLM 747 at TPE as they did not visit in real life. You may switch this to a normal 747 if you choose. Repaints by Raphael Rodrigues for the AIA Fokker 100 and FAIB 737-300, 737-400, 767-300, 747-200SUD, 747-300, and 747-400 along with flightplans by Chasen Richardson are included. Note that the 747-200SUD uses the 747-300 model. As a Bonus, the KLM Cargo 747-200SUD is also included.Part of the 1998 Flight Simulator Project.

Canadair CL-13 Mk 2 Sabre (F-86E) Royal Hellenic Air Force

File Description:
This is one of the first jet age aircrafts served in Royal Hellenic Air Force, almost 50 years ago (!!!). There are two repaint versions of Royal Hellenic Air Force in the zip package: The first one, represents a Royal Hellenic Air Force Canadair CL-13 Mark 2 Sabre used to fly with 342nd Sqdr. of Royal Hellenic Air Force (RHAF) in Elefsina, Greece with an interception role. The second, represents the aniversary "Alexander the Great" texture, painted in "patriotic" colours, by a gas station owner (!!!) in Thessaloniki - Greece after buying the aircraft (sn. 19294) as scrap and finaly display it as a memorial by his store. This specific aircraft used to fly with 343rd Sqdr. In Nea Anchialos, Greece. The Canadair CL-13 Mark 2 Sabre aircraft (Canadian build F-86E under North American licence) used to be one of the most succesfull aircrafts during the 50'ies and the Korean war. This "CL-13_RHAF_v1.zip" package is full compatible with FS2K2 and FS9 too and contains realistic sound made by Angelos Hatzikatakos, NEW (made by the author) panel, the official checklist and a VERY completed (as always...) flight manual (31 pages) which can be read with Adobe Acrobat. This repaint was based on the original model made by Rey Lopez . The primary panel was made by Ken Mitchell and modified by Nick Karatzides to look more realistic and closer to the Hellenic CL-13 Mk 2 cockpit. A total NEW flight model ("air" file and aircraft.cfg file) have been created by Nick Karatzides and and I test it hard, to ensure that it flies as close as possible like a real fighter! This "CL-13_RHAF_v1.zip" package is for EXPERIENCED FlightSimers and virtual pilots who have a "good feeling" on the stick and do not "kick" the contol stick while flying. The package contains new visual effects, night lighting, fine looking mechanical parts movement, contrails, realistic gears extracting / retracting etc. Repaint and stuff by Nick Karatzides.

AIFlow SimConnect Utility for P3D v4

Images related to this file:

• AIFlow_SimConnect_Utility_for_P3D_v4_1.png

File Description:
AIFlow v1.1 is a simconnect utility designed to ease AI congestion and go-arounds at the airport the user is departing from and arriving at. AIFlow does this by enforcing spacing minimums between arriving AI aircraft resulting in more orderly arrival patterns. AIFlow also supports spacing spacing minimums between the AI aircraft and the USER’s aircraft when the user is flying (during all phases of the user's flight). For added realism, AIFlow adds landing effects (e.g., micro bank and pitch corrections that scale up during crosswind conditions) to the AI on short final approach. The user can also briefly squawk 1234 in their aircraft to temporarily suspend landings so that the user can find a slot to depart a busy runway. AIFlow is designed to compliment the default P3D AI program and thus is fully compatible with any AI-related program that is compatible with the default AI program (e.g., AIG, Ultimate Traffic Live, Radar Contact, etc.). AIFlow is targeted to Prepar3D version 4.5 or 5.0, specifically SimConnect Version 4.5.0.0 or later. AIFlow operates externally via simconnect and thus makes no changes to the P3D sim. NEW for v1.1: (1) detect and correct AI performing poor approaches (e.g., dive-bombing, descent into terrain) under control of the P3D AI engine, (2) user can specify minimum and maximum AI approach speeds in terminal area, (3) prevent AI from stopping on runway when user landing, (4) AI plane spotting mode only, (5) external database fallback in case simconnect fails to provide local airport data, (6) adjustable in-sim message level, (7) periodic read of .ini file to tweak parameters more easily, (8) AIFlow starts minimized. FIXES for v1.1 include: sequencing in heavy AI traffic would sometimes cause excessive go-arounds, going around AI would sometimes improperly hold, changing AI spacing from default value did not have any effect, sometimes user aircraft would get controlled, .ini file would sometimes get confused reading parameter values having whites spaces.

Curtiss Helldiver Italian Air Force

Images related to this file:

File Description: This folder contains a repaint for the Aerplane Heaven Curtiss Helldiver in the colors of S2C-5 MM4693 86-42 of the 86 Gruppo Antisom of the Italian Air Force, based in Grottaglie, 1952. Italy’s experience with the Helldiver was brief but interesting. In 1950, when the first post-WWII formal rearmament plan was put forward, the Italian navy identified as a priority obtaining a surplus American light aircraft carrier, with appropriate air wing. A team was sent to Naval Air Station Corpus Christi TX, where two pilots trained and qualified on the Helldiver, later practicing carrier operations aboard USS Midway (CV-41) where four more pilots earned US Navy carrier wings. In September 1952, two surplus Helldivers were presented to the Italian navy as a gift by the USA. The two planes were delivered to Naples, Italy. Unfortunately for the Italian navy, there was still a Mussolini-era law on the books called Legge 1000 Kilo (law of a thousand kilograms) which mandated that only the Italian air force could fly planes over 2,200 lbs weight. As the result of a bizarre inter-services lawsuit, the navy was forced to abandon plans for both it’s aircraft carrier wish and the Helldivers. A total of forty-six Helldivers were eventually transferred to the Italian air force (the two former navy planes plus a further forty-four). The Italian air force assigned them to the 86th Autonomous Antisubmarine Group at Grottaglie air base, where they flew ASW missions with depth charges. The Helldiver was not popular with the Italians…as an anecdotal example, they were housed in a disused WWII-era blimp hangar. They were viewed as obsolete and too difficult to master pilots on. The crews were also not keen on flying a single-engine type on long overwater patrols. The Italian planes were only in frontline service for about one year. In 1953, they were replaced by PV-2 Harpoons and (later) S-2 Trackers, which were much more suitable to long-range ASW missions. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by Aeroplane Heaven.

Ansaldo S.V.A.-5 (V.01)

Images related to this file:

File Description: One of the faster airplane of WWI thanks to an innovative design, the S.V.A. was the first airplane conceived and built entirely in Italy. The initials "S.V.A." stand for the names of Savoia and Verduzio, the two engineers that designed it, and of Ansaldo, the firm that built over 2000 of them starting from 1917. The Ansaldo S.V.A. was an entire family of Italian reconnaissance biplane aircraft of World War I and the decade after. Originally conceived as a fighter, the S.V.A. was found inadequate for that role. Nevertheless, its impressive speed, range and operational ceiling made it an excellent reconnaissance aircraft and even light bomber. The S.V.A. became legendary among pilots for some of its memorable flights; first, above all, the one over Vienna: this flight was an epic action performed by Italian poet and nationalist patriot Gabriele D'Annunzio on 9th August 1918. After the war, thanks to the strong determination of Arturo Ferrarin and Guido Masiero( the pilots), two S.V.A.9s (the two seater version of the S.V.A.-5) flew for 18000Km from Rome to Tokyo (14th February / 31st May 1920). Another S.V.A., piloted by Antonio Locatelli, first flew alone across the Andes (30th July 1919). Production of the aircraft continued well after the war, with the final examples delivered in 1928. In 1919 some S.V.A.s were used in airmail routes by "Gruppo Sperimentale Comunicazioni Aeree", a group formed by the Italian Army in order to prove the feasibility of commercial air services. The Regia Aeronautica (Royal Italian Air Force, since 1923) employed the S.V.A. in operational units in Italy and North Africa (Lybia) as well as for pilot training. Many war-surplus planes were employed by commercial flying schools. Complete aircraft, 5 Different Hi-Res GMax models (5 different versions, three S.V.A.-5 and two S.V.A.-9), features the usual moving parts, such as all flight controls. Five different liveries (three WWI and two post-war). VC and 2D Panel. Models, panels and paints by Manuele Villa, Flight dynamics, Handling notes and tutorials by FSAviator. September 2008. Installation instructions included.

Graphic Realism and FSX Optimization

File Description:
The add-ons configuration step by step Not configured FSX is a pain in the neck for many people. A small number of fps and frequent CTD (crash to desktop) can be extremely annoying or even depressing to some users. A lot of you probably came to a conclusion that it was going to be a losing battle and you gave up after a few fruitless days or you spent money on the FSPS-XTREME FSX PC V2 program, which can automatically do practically everything for us. But what's the point of spending money on something that we can do by ourselves with the help of this handbook? I myself was dealing with the FSX platform three times before I gave up FS9. Microsoft gave out the engine to us, but in order to make sense, our passion involves radical tuning of the device. On the ground of one's own experience and thousands of hours devoted by people to diving into the core of the platform, I'll present a way of installation, add-ons selection and their configuration starting from the installation of the system. Having done the procedures described below, FSX will look beautiful and it'll work smoothly even with challenging sceneries. The entirety is based on quite a popular hardware configuration, which will let us use 85% of the graphic potential of Microsoft Flight Simulator X. We want t to achieve the goal of minimum 25 fps in VC B738 PMDG NGX, with challenging sceneries, flying in the window mode. For the mode the full screen efficiency should reach 33 fps. In this handbook, I'm neither going to describe each and every change made in cfg nor explain what the alterations are to conduce. You will be given a simple and ready recipe which I use myself. I can't guarantee a 100% satisfaction for the poorer equipment computers. I can assure you, however, that FSX will definitely work so much better and playing with FSX sliders or with the size of textures in REX you will be able to obtain the desired effect.

Yemenia Yemen Airlines - Summer 05

File Description:
FS2002/2004 "Yemenia" scheduled flightplans for the summer 2005 period, which have been partly compiled according to their company website informations. Unfortunately, the timetable they publish online is rather inconsistent and we couldn't produce a 100% fault-free compilation. However, it should be the most precise work we could achieve so far. Many thanks to Brian VAN HOUT and Arnt Helge HAALAND for their help ! Yemenia operates a fleet of Boeing 737-800, Airbus A310-300 and Airbus A330-200 from both Aden and Sana'a.

Augustine Island, Alaska

File Description:
There is actually a Volcano located on this big Island. I have put a series of airstrips around the area and up twards the Volcano area itself. The airstrips are; 1.Pierce Float Base. 2.Panalak Airstrip. 3.Easton Range.Airstrip 4.Tulak Point.Airstrip/Float 5.Jack's Peak. Airstrip. I made this scenery for my own pleasure, so I could enjoy the new aircraft that are coming out. The idea is, to be able to go around the island and do touch and go's at the different strips and just nose around. Jacks Peak is at 1189' Msl. It is a good one for taking off and having the ground fall out from under you as you pass the end of the runway. Kind of a wierd sensation to say the least. Hope you enjoy this scenery as much as I do flying around it and actually creating it.

Vietnam Airlines Airbus A330-200

File Description:
Vietnam Airlines Airbus A330-200; utilizing the A330-200 model from Overland/Simmer Sky's payware 'World of Airbus' package. HVN has plans to lease several A332s from Malaysia Airlines, so this is a conceptual repaint at this time. I took a little artistic liberty, and added the lotus to the winglets, otherwise this is identical to the A333. Additionally, I have included update files for my A333 and B763 repaint for the same airline; the B763 fixes are embarassingly too many to mention, sorry about that, but it should be good now; and the A333 has a re-formatted lotus tail. This is an aircraft from members of FSPainter design, and combines their tried and tested ability to design visually stunning aircraft; with the addition of full features and animations, an absolutely delightful flying experience. Aircraft, base textures, and paint kit by Overland Co.,Ltd.
