| Camden Field in Trinidad |
|
File Description:
Camden Field was once a wartime American airfield, which shows up in the wide east-west runway that has more recently been partly resurfaced. There are no runway markings beyond a centre line, and it just sort of tapers off at the sides and the eastern end into the bush. In contrast to the renovated hangar to the north of the western end of the runway the buildings to the south haven't been touched by any recent tender-loving-care. There is a wonderful patched-together shed and a small control tower, which was built on the edge of the existing runway. This makes it appear rather close to the edge of the resurfaced runway area. Do not be fooled, this is not an illusion; it IS close to the edge of the runway. Just take comfort in the thought that the prevailing southeast winds (for much of the year) will tend to blow you away from it as you approach for a landing from the west. And I kept the pre-renovation version of the old hangar when I found some old pics of the crop dusting operation from five years ago.

| Project Mercury Addon Enhancement Pack |
|
File Description:
An enhancement package for the Project Mercury addon for Orbiter created by Rob Conley at the Medville Space Center http://home.alltel.net/estar/orbiter.html This enhancement pack contains updates to the REDSTONE, ATLAS rockets and the MERCURY Spacecraft. The REDSTONE texture was hand crafted in MS Paint (believe it or not) using archived pictures of both Freedom-7 and Liberty Bell 7 pre launch pictures as guides. It is now historically accurate, and cleaned up quite a bit. The ATLAS now sports a realistic corrigated booster section (with the texture taken right from a picture of Gordo Coopers pre-launch Atlas) and the upper section now has the frosty look that occured with the Atlas when it was loaded with LOX and fuel, and some historically accurate markings were included. The improvements to the MERCURY CAPSULE are numerous. It sports a real window (texture taken from a close up shot of Friendship-7), more darker exterior color that is more accurate, crisper detail, improved antenna housing and capsule top. Please note that there are TWO versions of the capsule exterior texture included. One called CAPMAIN.DDS sports a realistic name printed on the exterior, not assiciated with any real mission (America 7), and the other texture, CAPMAIN-NOLOGO.DDS, has no logo imprinted. Refer to the README file for instructions on how to change this to the non-logo capsule.

| French Air Force Dassault Mirage III, Pink Scheme |
|
File Description:
French Air Force Dassault Mirage III, in an unusual pink scheme; utilizing Warwick Carter's Mirage III model available on Simviation and Flightsim.com. The scheme was a practical joke between ground crews of neighboring squadrons in 1979; the aircraft made one flight with the squadron commander flying the aircraft. This venerable French jet fighter is still in service in different variations, after over forty years from its original design. Aircraft model by Warwick Carter, master texture set by Gerry J. Smith.

| Replacement Earth Textures |
|
File Description:
These textures will improve the appearance of the Earth when zoomed out in Top Down View. They are the same size as default, so framerates will not be affected at all. A daytime and a nighttime texture set are included, but unfortunately only one can be displayed on the Earth at once. The daytime image was created from NASA true-color satellite imagery, making the Earth appear very realistic. The nightime photo was created from worldwide light and reflectivity maps. Download and enjoy!
