| Black Cat Catalina PBY5/5Av1.1 for x-plane |
|
File Description:
This update includes improvements to the fuselage shape, addition of retractable wing floats using wheel farings, an improved but not custom panel, improved prop efficiency and more. The PBY Catalina is probably the best known flying boat with over 4000 produced by Consolidated aircraft and licensees. The Black Cat squadrons all done in flat black played havoc particularly for the Japanese in the Pacific. Fitted with radar, with a 15 hour endurance and 2800 mile range they hunted Japanese naval ships by night and bombed or torpedoed them by the hundreds up. There are 6 engine nacelles used in the model, 2 represent the 1200 HP radial engines driving the props, the others are jets with 5 lbs of thrust, 1 is used for the rear fuselage section, 1 is used for the wing pylon, 1 is used for the flare from the fuselage to the vertical stabilizer and the last is used for the forward observation and gunner space. Two are not used. Wing sections are taken up by the main wing and the support spars so there you go. The fuel tanks are used for the side gunner pods since these can be decorated separately. The plane flies very well and is stable as a rock. Takeoffs from water are quite easy as long as you don't dip a wing tip (no floats remember). The Black Cat squadron logo used in the paint scheme is courtesy of http://www.daveswarbirds.com/blackcat/logos.htm and is from the VP-71 Black Cat squadron.

| JetBlue 'Circles' Airbus A320 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This repaint is of the very unusual but striking "JetBlue - Circles" livery for the Project Airbus A320 model (included in zip). This is a complete file and for FS9 (FS2004). While it may work in FSX, I cannot and will not confirm that as these textures have only been tested in FS9. All repainted textures, which were completely hand painted (other than the JetBlue text) have been saved and formatted in 32 bit. This model comes with all of the standard PA animations. New Alpha channels have been created to highlight the detail which has also been highlighted in terms of the doors and windows to resemble the actual aircraft. This has been an intense repaint to do due to the very nature of the livery so please PLEASE DO NOT count the circles and email me to say I missed one. If I have (which I haven't I don't think) pretend it is due to excessive weathering :) While there are some screen shots here, there are more in the Read Me file so if you have any doubts, please take a look at all of them. Installation, Distribution and Contact Details for me can be found in the enclosed PA TC Read Me File. Enjoy this paint and download it lots just so I know the work, frustration, a bottle and half of Capt Morgan and lots of Asprin were worth it :) Cheers and safe flying!

| Douglas C-47 (79001) Swedish Air Force |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for version 3.14 of the Douglas C-47 by Manfred Jahn and colleagues in the colors of C-47B 79001 of the Swedish Air Force that was at the start of the Catalina affair (Swedish: Catalinaaffären), a military confrontation and Cold War-era diplomatic crisis in June 1952, in which Soviet fighter jets shot down two Swedish aircraft over international waters in the Baltic Sea. The first aircraft to be shot down was an unarmed Swedish Air Force Tp 79, a derivative of the Douglas DC-3, carrying out radio and radar signals intelligence-gathering for the National Defence Radio Establishment. None of the crew of eight was rescued. The second aircraft to be shot down was a Swedish Air Force Tp 47, a Catalina flying boat, involved in the search and rescue operation for the missing DC-3. The Catalina's crew of five was saved. The Soviet Union publicly denied involvement until its dissolution in 1991. The aircraft was manufactured in 1943 with original US serial number 42-5694, and was delivered to USAAF 15th Troop Carrier Squadron (61st Troop Carrier Group). It saw action in northern Africa before being stationed at RAF Barkston Heath. On June 13, 1952, it disappeared east of the isle of Gotska Sandön while carrying out signals intelligence-gathering operations for the Swedish National Defence Radio Establishment. Both aircraft were located in 2003, and the DC-3 was salvaged, and the wreckage is currently on display in the Swedish Air Force Museum near Linköping. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom for Manfred Jahn's C-47 version 3.14, based on the paintkit by Gman5250.

| FSX North Korea DMZ, UGF and Ballistic Missile Base Addon Scenery Package |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
I titled this a "DMZ, UGF and Ballistic Missile Base" scenery package because that's how this whole project started, but then it SNOWBALLED onto 80+ scenery areas for ALL of North Korea!
This package includes scenery AFCADs for 2 DMZ "Border Wall Areas", 8 DMZ SAM/EW radar sites (TacPack users can "spawn" SA-2s there!), 5 "secret" ballistic missile bases, two "secret" UnderGround Facility (UGF) locations like "TOPGUN 2", 5 navy bases/dockyards along the east coast, 2 nuclear facilities, 2 machine factories, and an Oil Refinery.
BUT WAIT! For the city of Pyongyang I added the Pyongyang Thermal Power Plant, the Pyongyang-Dong Power Plant, 2 power grid "sub stations" with SA-6 SAM sites, the Pyongyang rail yard, and the "VIP Airport" on the SE side of the city.
THERES MORE! (somebody STOP me!) I also did 23 fighter bases along with 12 helicopter bases (grass strips), and ALL of the fighter & helicopter bases have active runways, taxiways, and plenty of "Mil_Combat" parking available for AI aircraft.
For those who like "Carrier Ops", I put 4 "Naval Waypoints" off the coast of N Korea...2 in the Yellow Sea and 2 in the Sea of Japan. ALL FOUR have static aircraft carriers at their locations, or you can spawn/start an AI Carrier there instead!
Installation is SUPER easy and I've included instructions to install this SUPER-SIZED package as a stand-alone "Scenery Area" in your FSX Scenery Library. That way you can just click it on or off as needed, instead of clogging up your "Addon Scenery/Scenery" file with 200+ AFCAD files!

| Bethel: St Mary's area airfields in southwest Alaska close to the Yukon River |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This presumes you have already installed Bethel PABE and Bethel Local Airfields. In the Yukon River area of Alaska to the north of Bethel there are small villages, served by flights from both Bethel and the nearer St Mary's PASM. St Mary's has a gravel runway like the other villages, but has a larger population and airport services including maintenance and fuel. This, plus the saving of an average one hundred miles of flying by a Cessna 205 when compared with flights from Bethel, means it acts as a distribution centre fed from Bethel by larger aircraft. Go to "http://vfrmap.com/" for free vfr maps of the area (see the attached). The ten village airfields included here are all to the north and west of St Mary's: Hooper Bay PAHP, Chevak VAK, Cape Romanzof PACZ (closed air force field servicing a radar station), Scammon Bay SCM, Sheldon Point SXP, Alakanuk AUK, Emmonak PAEM, Kotlik 2A9, Mountain Village MOU, and of course St Mary's PASM itself. With these airfields not everything is as it appears to be. For instance, Hooper Bay is not a new and modernised airfield, despite the asphalt runway and apron; the current version has dispensed with the aging asphalt and gone back to gravel. I have tended to go for the 2005 or so versions, which sometimes means a small runway amid or close to the housing; Kotlik was an early renewal for reasons of safety as much as anything else and has had (since 2003?) a new and longer runway located outside of the town. The second batch of airfields will be to the east of St Mary's.

[email protected]
This is an old classic game where you need to find the bag
that is full of fake money.
You have ten bags, each containing ten coins. An authentic
coin weighs ten grams. A fake coin weighs nine grams.
You have a scale which you may use only once. If you click on
a bag, a coin will fall onto the scale. The numbers on the
top of each bag will show you how many coins from the bag
you have put on the scale.If you mistakenly put more coins
then you want on the scale, click on the number on top of
the bag and it will decrease the number of coins that you
have placed on the scale by a number of one.
You may use all the coins from the bags in any combination
you want. After you finish with putting the coins on the scale,
you can push the red button which will trigger the scale and
show you how much the coins you selected weigh. After this you
can click on the bag which you think is full of fake coins to
see the result.
You can just take and put 10Coins.exe in any place(drive) you want.
Double click on 10Coins.exe and game will run.
Or you can use instalation program Install10Coins.exe
It will make icons and shortcuts for you.
To exit from game(games) use Esc button on your keybord.
If you have any coments, or need instructions contact me.
Enjoy!

| Nick's Prop Dust v2.0 with Nick's ALL WET for Watercraft! |
|
File Description:
This package is an all new release of my original prop dust FX. This gauge/effects package automatically senses the terrain the aircraft is in contact with or flying over and changes the prop dust and water FX for the aircrafts prop/rotor wash based on dirt, dry mud or clay, snow, rain, water, ice, sand, gravel and short grass. In addition the real time surface conditions are also sensed. In example: a dry asphalt or concrete runway will produce no prop dust/wash; however, the same runway with snow/rain conditions present will automatically produce a throttle controlled snow/rain blowing effect. FX files and gauges are included for large and small, single engine, multi-engine, amphibians, helicopters, seaplanes and massive scale military and commercial land/water transports. This package requires manually editing/adding lines in the aircraft.cfg and panel.cfg files. The README files include very complete and comprehensive instructions with a quick and easy copy/paste file for all the Microsoft prop aircraft and 13 other popular aircraft. I have also provided a QUICK REFERENCE file for current Nicks Prop Dust users for the new seaplane gauge and new FX location formulas. Nick's ALL WET is wild splashing and spraying bow/skid water FX designed for amphibians, seaplanes and boats which includes water droplets on the 2D and VC windshield as the plane barrels through the water on takeoff and landing. There is an option to install Nick's ALL WET without the main dust FX package. ENJOY! from Nick Needham

| OSM World: South America |

File Description:
OSM World is a community project! If you wish to help, check the documentation and contact the author!
Welcome to OSM Wold: South America! This is a vector data scenery package covering the South American area. Coastlines, Rivers, lakes, roads, railways, and power lines with detail never before seen! All in an autogen-compatible density! You can see roundabouts, train terminals, harbor areas in a resolution of a point every 10 meters. At this same resolution a vectorial city class places residential (in small and big building variations, depending on surface area) and industrial areas exactly where they are supposed to be. This gives the city areas a resolution far superior to the capacity of FS-2004 default landclass bitmaps, limited to approximately 1 Km x 1 Km squares. OSM World: South America will even give you small roads leading to small towns (even a few houses across)! From big highway intersections, including ramps, to the tiniest rural pathways covering the entire South american area! Wherever in South America you fly, there is something to see!
You can enjoy this scenery near coastlines too! harbor areas and extremely detailed coastal topology (try the southern Chile). This scenery makes sure that the ocean is always flat, you can forget about the climbing water often found around photo-sceneries! This scenery is best paired with a good set of terrain meshes (like the freeware global SRTM mesh by Stephen Rothlisberger , available here: http://simviation.com/1/fs2004terrainmesh).
