File Description:
The North American B-45 Tornado was one of the most important American aircraft of the early Cold War period, and one of the least remembered today. It was the first bomber-sized jet bomber in service anywhere in the world, first jet to drop a live atomic bomb, first jet to cross the North Pacific non-stop (Alaska to Japan,) first jet to fly the North Atlantic (with stops), NATO forces’ first and for some time only nuclear deterrent, first reconnaissance plane to fly deep penetration missions over North Korea, the People’s Republic of China, and the Soviet Union, and first aircraft to routinely use in-flight refueling on combat missions. The package includes twenty models and three dozen authentic skins depicting every major variant and numerous minor and sub-variants as they appeared throughout the type’s service life. A detailed manual explains some of the type’s unique operational procedures. Mostly by David Wooster with some help and skins painted by Mick.

| PABA - Barter Island (Kaktovik) - Alaska North Slope 8 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
The town of Barrow is in the far north of Alaska, and these are coastal villages or radar installations to the west, south, and now east of Barrow. There will be further additions. Barter Island is a DEW station Air Force base 310 miles east of Barrow and 75 miles east of Bullen Point. The runway is just under 5,000 feet of gravel and aligned 06-24 on a spit of land at the northeast corner of the island. The big hangar is still there on the apron. Most of the DEW buildings have now been removed but this scenery is dated around 2005 when there were more of them still there. Between the DEW station and the airstrip is the village of Kaktovik, with a population of some 300 mainly traditional Inupiat. The village was first pioneered when the DEW station was built in the 1950's and grew as the years passed. The FS9 error discovered when making this scenery was that FS9 had mistakenly "placed" Kaktovik at Bullen Point (not physically, it was just wrongly stated as the local town); this is now only partly corrected as FS9 refused to accept my Bullen Point revision but allowed me to associate Kaktovik with Barter Island. Kaktovik is definitely on Barter Island. I could also mention that the runway was in the sea, but there isn't much point in that as Bill would say it was all the fault of Ultimate Terrain, so I won't bother. The next DEW station to the east is in Canada and called Komakuk; this has already been made and posted. The next in this series will be far to the west. The AI has daily flights by ERA, plus Northern Air Cargo, and some GA.

| Alaska North Slope 9; Point Hope PAPO |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
The town of Barrow is in the far north of Alaska, and these are coastal villages or radar installations to the west, south, and east of Barrow on the North Slope. There will be further additions. Point Hope is a village on a spit of land that is one of the oldest and continuously inhabited places in all of North America, not just the polar regions. The "Point" is what brought this about, migrating whales passing close to land as they rounded the point, and the traditional way of life continues to this day. The population is now around 670. The airport surpassed all my expectations of FS9. Go look at the area before you install this. The first thing you will notice is that FS9 does not list Point Hope PAPO. The town is there (way too big and in totally the wrong place) and the airport background is there (wrong place of course) but there is no airport! Some buildings, but no runway, no apron, nothing that can be used by a plane?!? In real life the town is 3 miles east of the point, the runway is situated between town and point and, unusually in the north, is asphalt. This is presumably possible because of the gravel make-up of the point itself, with very little vegetable content and the warming sea restricting permafrost movements. 4,000 feet of 75 feet wide asphalt, lit, PAPI at both ends, and aligned 01-19. The building that appears to be wrongly situated away from the apron is like that intentionally; it is a helicopter hangar (not used in winter?) and they presumably did not want the apron traffic to get in their way. The AI has daily flights by ERA, plus Northern Air Cargo, and some GA.

| LAPA Namc YS-11 Combi (Green) |
|
File Description:
LJ in LAPA green livery.When in September 1979 Austral ceased operations with the Namcs, LAPA (Lineas Aereas Privadas Argentinas) an emergent commuter airline, bought the three planes and obtained the governmental license to exploit the forsaken routes left by Austral. With a new livery, and an agressive advertising campaign, the Namcs based at SABE, begun flights to Gral. Pico, Gral. Roca, La Plata, Mar del Plata, Necochea and Pehuajo. Despite a promising beginning, such routes were not profitable at the end, and the planes flew with a coefficient of occupation of only 21%, too low to keep the Namcs on the air. LAPA then, decided to halt the YS-11 and to replace them with the smaller Shorts 330. By the end of 1981, the Namcs were made available to the market, and bought by Mid-Pacific Air, concluding fourteen years of presence of the Namcs in Argentina. Included in this file there's a version of the YS-11 Combi fitted with the external Apu kit, done by Esa Kaihlanen of the AFG team. Textures only for the AFG's Namc YS-11 V2.7 Combi Configuration (ys-11combi.zip).

| Vought F4U-1A Corsair "Planes of Fame" |
|
File Description:
This is a repaint only for the Aeroplane Heaven Early Corsair and Megapack releases. This repaint depicts Vought F4U-1A Corsair Bu #17799 owned and operated by the Planes of Fame Museum, Chino, CA. This aircraft is actually the oldest Corsair currently flying. While it is known that this aircraft went to the Pacific, its combat assignment and record is not known. Based on its serial number, which places it right between several Black Sheep Squadron Corsairs, there is a chance it was part of the historic group. It was owned by MGM between 1960 and 1970, being used as a movie prop. Ed Maloney purchased the aircraft in 1970 and it has been with the Planes of Fame Museum ever since. The aircraft was also one of several Corsairs that were used in the TV series "Baa Baa Black Sheep." Its current paint scheme is that of what would have been a very rare paint scheme on a Corsair during WWII. Because the actual airplane is fitted with a D model canopy this repaint is meant to be installed into the D model folder though shows up under the F4U-1A designation.

| Los Angeles VTerminal (KLAX) 2009 V2 |
|
File Description:
UPDATE: After reports of people not getting the complete file, I have re-uploaded it. The problem was my program that I was using to zip the file. I have since changed programs and fixed the problem. Sorry for the inconvenience.
The LAX Vterminal was originally released to a select few virtual airlines and can now be yours. These were West Express, Atlantic Sun, Empora Virtual, City Bird, Arizona Pacific, and Family Virtual Airlines. The terminal contains three concourses, forty-three (43) gates, and eight overflow parking spots. Parking assignments have not been assigned to any of the gates, so you will need to go through and do so. The terminal was created by Michael Wood and Nick O'Dell. It was designed to fit the needs of virtual airlines, in order to return parking spots in the main terminal to their real world owners. This scenery is frame rate friendly, and will not take up a lot of space on your hard drive. Included in this file are AFCAD's for the default and OceanFlight scenery. Enjoy our scenery, and look for more scenery projects coming in the near future.

| The Hawaiian Islands - Kauai, Part 1 of 5 |
|
File Description:
The complete scenery package is 446MB in size. In order to accommodate AvSim's file size requirement, this scenery has been broken into five smaller files. However, all five files -- Hawaii-Kauai-RS-01.zip through Hawaii-Kauai-RS-05.zip -- are necessary for this scenery to work properly. My apologies in advance for the added complexity this involves. "Hawaii-Kauai-RS-01" includes a ReadMe with detailed instructions on how to install this scenery.
Kauai itself is the fourth largest of the main Hawaiian Islands. Also known as the "Garden Isle" due to it's lush tropical foliage, it is located about 105 miles (170 kilometers) west of Oahu and just to the east of tiny Niihau. The east side of Mount Wai'ale'ale is considered to be one of the wettest spots on earth receiving an average annual rainfall of 460 inches (1,200 cm). All that water has carved out deep valleys in the central mountains, the most scenic of which is Waimea Canyon, often referred to as "The Grand Canyon of the Pacific". From shoreline cliffs to mountainous heights, to pristine beaches, enjoy exploring this picture postcard perfect landscape.

| Dease Lake CYDL 2010 v1.1 |
|

File Description:
Version 1.1 adds the three hazard beacons that define the boundaries of the night circuit, as depicted in the included chart. Many thanks to Lane Street for creating the beacons and giving us permission to include them in the scenery. This scenery is complete and does not require the previous verion. Dease Lake CYDL airport is located about 2 miles south of Dease Lake in stunningly beautiful northwest British Columbia. (The lake directly to the east of the airport is Allan Lake.) Scheduled passenger service to Smithers and Bob Quinn Lake is provided by Northern Thunderbird Air (http://ntair.ca/). CYDL also serves as a base for Pacific Western Helicopters (http://www.pwh.ca/). This version moves the airport slightly to its correct location. All aprons & taxiways have been redone and all default buildings replaced. The little terminal building is photo real. The missing town of Dease Lake and the missing lake south of Allan lake have been added. This scenery was designed for use with Ultimate Terrain and was not tested in the default scenery. It may or may not work in FSX. Previous version had 307 downloads.

File Description:
Looking to fill up FlyTampa's Kai Tak? Look no further! This package contains 1998 flightplans for Air Macau, Air Hong Kong, Cathay Pacific, and Cathay Cargo. Passenger plans are based off the summer 1998 Offical Airline Guide(OAG), while cargo plans are representative based off of early 2000s flightplans and backdated to represent the airlines in 1998. Air Macau did maintenance in Hong Kong and Air Hong Kong did training flights to Macau, this is represented in the flightplans with Air Macau spending a few days in HKG and Air Hong Kong doing 2 training flights on Sunday to MFM. If you are a P3D user, please download our package with repaints for FAIB and FSPX models. Each airline has up to 3 versions; standard, lite(with minimal variations), and bonus(with extra aircraft from the era but not active in 1998). These flightplans are part of a much larger 1998 Flight Simulator Project which will complete all scheduled, cargo, and charter flights to project countries as well as select military and GA plans as well as backdated scenery and ADEX. Please follow our project at: www.facebook.com/flightsim98. By Ranmori Scythe and Chasen Richardson.
