| Kiwi360 (KiwiFruit Country)- Custom buildings, helipad, Hi Res photoreal, Aerius R22 Repaint. Te Puke, New Zealand |
|
File Description:
Kiwi360 (formally know as Kiwifruit Country) is a theme park based around the Kiwifruit (AK.A Chinese Gooseberry or Zespri- The trade name) which is a major export of New Zealand grown predominately in the Bay of Plenty Region. The park is situated about midway between Tauranga and Whakatane, about 5km east of the township of Te Puke.
The Bay of Plentys sunny climate ensures good growing conditions for the delicious fruit and has also spawned a mini tourist industry of tours of the orchards and sorting/packing/coolstores. These include tourist flights by Aerius (http://www.aerius.co.nz ) using a Robinson R44 helicopter.
This scenery was made after a visit when carrying out a GPS survey: I took a few photos and whacked it up. It isn't perfect but will be useful for flights in small helos (I.e. Robinson R22, R44 or Hughes 300/269).
It includes the famous giant Kiwifruit slice, the helipad next to it; the main Kiwi 360 building; a large coolstore/packhouse and the backpackers next to the park. It also includes a lot of library objects (especially trees- If these are adversely affecting performance, you can disable this bgl)
This is placed on a high resolution aerial photo provided by Environment Bay of Plenty.
The scenery also has reflection maps and night maps for those who like getting up at the crack of dawn or simulating frost protection work (although I don't believe the pad is certified for night operations in real life).
The download also includes a repaint of the default Robinson R22 in the colours of ZK-HJZ (in actual fact an R44) kindly provided by James Eden from the ARNZ Forums (see the readme for the .cfg entry to add this repaint)
This helipad isn't in controlled airspace but Tauranga Tower is nearby and will need to be called before entering their airspace (above 2500ft LL for the CTA or within about 10nm of Tauranga for the CTZ) Radio procedures are carried out on Christchurch Information 125.5 for flight following/planning.

File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the A2A WoP3 P-51D Mustang, in the colors of P-51K #44-64077 5E-V "Estellita" of Lt. Curtis L. Smart, of the 385th FS/364th FG, based in Honington, UK. As the story goes, just prior to being assigned to England to fly fighter aircraft, Lt. Smart’s wife gave birth to the first of three daughters. Estrellita was the title of a Mexican song that was popular in those days, which translated to “Little Starâ€, and this was given to the child as her name. Smart’s first P-51 was named Estrellita but the aircraft was lost, so too was the second and ultimately he received the third aircraft to bear the name, now Estrellita III. The nose art was never completed as intended. If you notice the odd extension to the bottom of the “Eâ€, this was supposed to be a shooting star with a classic early US star with red center forming the shooting star portion.
Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the A2A paintkit.

| Sudwestflug Douglas DC-6B |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a repaint of the DC-6B in Sudwestflug colors. The freeware Cal Classic DC-6B by Greg Pepper and Tom Gibson is needed for this repaint. The German charter operator Südwestflug was founded in 1964 as a sort of feeder company for the company Contracta GmbH & Co KG. This company was active in the holiday home industry which built and sold their houses in Spain. To promote the homes to potential clients, they purchased the first of ultimately three DC-6B airliners in September 1965. Deficiencies found in the maintenance of the machines led to the start of a ban, and a negative image of the airline. The German newspapers wrote at that time of the "Wild Westflug", which was quite damaging. In order to avert an impending bankruptcy, they decided to make a far-reaching change in their image and changed their name to Germanair on 28 October 1968. They operated 3 DC-6Bs under their tenure. This repaint depicts D-ABAH. This repaint was tested on FSX-SE. It should work on FS2004, FSX & P3D v1-3.

File Description:
Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-23 Flogger (Part 6). I present a comprehensive AI traffic model and texture package for this classic (and still-serving) Russian multi-role fighter. The MiG-23, with just over 5,000 built, was Russia's first production of a true multi-role aircraft with a beyond-visual-range air superiority role as its primary function. The aircraft was arguably the direct counterpart of the F-4 Phantom, although it carried about half of the ordnance load. Nevertheless, in capable hands and late versions, the Flogger has been and is a very potent adversary; having served in multiple conflicts in Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. The MiG-23 entered service in 1970, was eventually operated by 43 countries, and is still in service in 14 of them. An original 8-LOD model brings this aircraft to the flightsim world. This package contains the MiG-23U/UB two-seat variant; with 4 models and 61 repaints. Original aircraft model, afterburner effects, flight dynamics, and textures by Michael Pearson. Please read included documentation for credits and disclaimers.

| Operating and Charter Costs |

File Description:
Now here is a most unusual file for you.... While one of the great pleasures of Flightsim is a bottomless wallet, For those wanting to fly charter and “keep it reasonable” and realistic, I found three websites that may help - I am sure there must be more.
The first, Controller provides an extensive listing of not only aircraft for sale... but also Aircraft for lease and charter (you’ll be able to determine just how much to charge your passengers. Categories range from Jet - Turboprop - Piston Single - Piston Twin - Antique / Classic - Experimental / Homebuilt - Piston Agricultural - Turbine Agricultural - Piston Military - Turbine Military - Piston Amphibious / Floatplane - Turbine Amphibious / Floatplane - Piston Helicopter - Turbine Helicopter
Two additional websites will give you an idea of just why you ARE charging so much...
For Jets - Omni Jet Trading - has a very comprehensive listing of Performance and Costs for most corporate Jets - From Astra to Westwind and most all inbetween.
For Turbo and Piston - Pierce Aircraft Sales covers operating costs from Beechcraft to the Swearingen Merlin IIIB
Zip file contains the URLs for all three websites...

| Tupolev Tu-22 Belaja (NATO-code 'Blinder') |
|
File Description:
Tupolev Tu-22 Belaja (NATO-code 'Blinder') for AI Traffic. This is an excellent addition to your retro military AI world, a classic Cold War medium bomber. A very mean, sleek design, but not always kind to its crews, with over 70 of roughly 350 production aircraft lost in accidents. This aircraft saw extensive combat in the 70s and 80s, in North Africa, the Middle East, and Southwest Asia. The Blinder also found work as a high-speed recce and electronic warfare platform. This is a complete aircraft package, with with two LOD6 model options and four serials (two -PD and two -RD) from the 341st TbAP (Heavy Bomber Regiment), home-based at Machluschi AB, Minsk; the regiment saw combat service in Afghanistan in the 1980s. This initial release only uses the RD model, but subsequent repaints will use both -R and -RD models. A multi-layer PSP paint kit is also included. Aircraft model by Sergey Bunevich, flight dynamics by Sergey Ivanov, Anglo-Russian diplomacy and Cyrillic spelling lessons by Rysiek Winauer, master textures, repaints, and paint kit by Michael Pearson.

| Douglas DC-7 for AI Traffic |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Douglas DC-7 for AI Traffic. The DC-7 propliner was designed for long-range commercial transport, being one of the first aircraft to utilize the polar routes from Europe to North America. Although the DC-7 was a very advanced aircraft for its time of production, it was produced at the cusp of the commercial jetliner age and was quickly eclipsed by a new generation of air travel. Subsequently the DC-7 was not as commercially successful as its predecessors, and only a handful remain in the cargo and aerial firefighting roles. In conjunction with Jake Burrus, I present an 8-LOD AI traffic model to bring this classic transport aircraft to the flightsim world. This package includes 14 models, 40 repaints, and a Photoshop paint kit. The paints in this package focus on DC-7 use from the 1970s to present day, with a few vintage paints thrown in. Aircraft model and master textures by Jake Burrus and Michael Pearson, flight dynamics and repaints by Michael Pearson.
