| Active Approach - LOWI (Innsbruck, Austria) |
|
File Description:
As most know the Approach and Final (VMC) for AI Traffic in FS9 is a straight in type landing and does not always consider high terrain at airports. This is do to the way that the coding is written in FS9 and it puts limits on IFR arriving aircraft. If you open runways at certain airports the AI Traffic will fly directly through a mountain once it is established on Final for a runway. What you will see with my file is a different type approach used for the way I control AI Traffic in FS9. No longer do the AI Planes use a straight in approach when landing at LOWI. My new AI Aircraft Approach coding for FS9 now uses a base leg approach so AI Traffic does not fly through the mountains. The Innsbruck Control Tower will clear all AI Traffic (IFR FP) landing either on 08 and 26 as a straight in landing even though the offset to final is 30 degrees from the runway center line. My testing shows excellent behavior of the FS9 default models, PAI models and the Aardvark planes of all sizes to execute this new type of visual approach. Read the text file for all the default enhancements added to LOWI along with a full understanding of how the new Approaches work *** Full set of Approach Charts included plus a FS2004 Default Scenery AFCAD ***

|
File Description:
Nalanji Dreaming was delivered to Qantas on the 24th January 1985, and is the second aircraft of the 747-300 classic series, to be added to the Qantas fleet. Nalanji is the aboriginal word for place. Internationally-renowned Australian Design studio. Balarinji, has created the 'Nalanji Dreaming' design for Qantas to celebrate the balance and harmony of nature in 'our place', Australia. Nalanji Dreaming' expresses its uniquely Australian cultural themes in a lush, tropical color palette and is the second Qantas aircraft to be painted with an Aboriginal. Qantas operates this aircraft on International routes. This Aircraft is painted for Projectopensky’s 747-300 model. This paint has been meticulously rendered in photoreal textures, to optimize and emphasize the
realism of the paint and the model. Features ( in depth ): Fully animated control surfaces, Fully independent suspension, Front gear steering, Trim Animation, Opening Passenger Doors Dynamic flexing wings, Animated tilting bogies, Rolling wheels, Animated thrust reversers, Fully reflective textures ( each part has different degree of reflection based on material ), Accurate flight dynamics ( accurate FDE with full profiles for wheels, tires, struts, leading/trailing struts, engine types ... Tested by real pilots.), Accurate spoiler animation, Detailed textures, Full night lighting, Visible landing lights from the cockpit, Reflective cockpit windows, Crash affects
and Transparent Nav light lenses. Please wait for future updates on the FDE, as these ones are not compatible with FSX, however everything else is. Enjoy

| Avon STOLPort (KWHR) |
|
File Description:
A recreation of the Avon STOLPort (ident KWHR) for MS Flight Simulator 2004, A Century of Flight. Avon was operated as an exclusive destination for Rocky Mountain Airways between (approximately) 1978 and sometime in the late 80's or early 90's. The 4,000' runway was short for the nearly 7,500' elevation, and surrounded by mountains, some towering over 6,000' above the airport elevation. To allow all weather operation, the airport eventually featured what was reported as the steepest ILS ever constructed, with a seven degree glideslope. RMA had exclusive use of the tiny STOLPort and operated it with 50-passenger De Haviland Dash 7 equipement.
Lacking the original chart, I surveyed in FS and plotted what is hopefully an accurate representation of the ILS approach, using my best understanding of TERPS - the US standard for instrument approaches. I also created an NOS-style IAP chart of this approach for the package. A text Takeoff Minimums & Procedure is also included.
AI ATC & traffic recognition of the approach will hopefully follow, but does not exist yet. In other words, you can fly this approach and see the localizer in the GPS, but AI ATC will not give you vectors to it. You'll need to follow the full procedure included on the chart.
Please see the full Readme.txt in "Flight Simulator 9\Addon Scenery\KWHR\Docs" in this zipfile for information on installation of the scenery, flying the approach, and more on the history of the Avon STOLPort.

This colour scheme was used at the time following the merger with BEA until 1984 when the colour scheme was changed again for the privatisation of British Airways. This paint is my third version and uses many new techniques for the engines and the horizon shine. The model contained is the most recent update SP3A which includes a brand new tow truck as well as animations and the catering and stair vehicles which can be controlled pressing 'Shift'+'8' to bring up the V4adv panel. The FDE is also the most recent update for the Rolls Royce model. Better preview screenshots are available in the zipdrive, Happy landings.

| Ireland VFR Small Airports part 1 |
|
File Description:
Ireland VFR Small Airports Part 1.
This scenery includes 5 small airports in Ireland. EIDL Donegal is in the far North West, EIAB Abbeyshrule is located in the centre of Ireland. EIKL Kilkenny is located in the South East and Newcastle can be found on the East coast. EITM is a small grass strip to the north West of Dublin. Donegal and Abbeyshrule have paved runways whilst the others consist of small grass strips.
The scenery includes animals, vegetation and rural objects. It also includes sound effects, animations, some high definition people, and aircraft painted using real Irish aircraft photos. Many of the airports include open hangers and buildings modelled from real photographs. Although Donegal is the only one with ILS, full night textures are included for all the airports.
Many of the files are stand alone and can be switched on or off according to user preference. The scenery can be used as a standalone, however it also uses objects from my other scenery addons.
The scenery has been tested with FSXA only and is designed to complement vfr photographic scenery. It will also work with the FSX default terrain, however all objects have been placed using ordinance survey data and may therefore appear misplaced in the default.
Full installation instructions are included in the Readme file.
I hope you enjoy using the airports as much as I enjoyed making them.

| ILS and GPS Approach Creator v1.1 for FS9 and FSX (for non-US/UK users) |
|
File Description:
The original version of this program did not work on computers in countries which use a comma as the decimal separator (apologies for that). Version 1.1 fixes this problem and should work in all countries (including the US and UK) regardless of the format of their decimal numbers. This is the full package, so you do not need to download version 1.0 as well. If the original version is working on your computer, then there is no need for you to download this version instead, as the two versions are functionally identical. This easy-to-use program allows the user to add an ILS and/or a GPS approach to any airport in FS9 or FSX. The user will be able to select the approach in the GPS unit, and request the approach from ATC. The ATC will then vector you to make an ILS or GPS approach. The AI will also be able to use the ILS approach, and you will hear them say so over the radio. The program was designed with the non-expert user in mind, and no familiarity with XML coding is assumed. The program supports up to four FS installations. The program needs to be run in conjunction with AFCAD (or a similar utility for FSX). You will also need the .NET Framework 2.0 and MSXML 4.0 installed on your computer. Tested with XP Home and Pro. Full instructions included.
