| Pioneer 4 Add-on for Orbiter |
|
File Description:
Pioneer 3 and 4 were early satellites designed to be lofted toward Earth's Moon. They were equipped with Geiger counters to measure radiation in space. Pioneer 3 was launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida, on December 6, 1958.
Because of a slight error in the satellite's velocity and angle after burnout of the Juno II rocket, it did not reach the Moon; instead it achieved a peak altitude of 102,320 kilometers (63,580 miles). The satellite did, however, discover a second radiation belt around Earth during its flight. Pioneer 3 reentered Earth's atmosphere over equatorial Africa a day after launch.
Pioneer 4 was launched March 3, 1959, and successfully passed within 60,000 kilometers (37,300 miles) of the Moon the following day. The satellite was tracked for 82 hours to a distance of 655,000 kilometers (407,000 miles) from Earth, a record at that time. Pioneer 4 is now orbiting the Sun, the first U.S. spacecraft placed in solar orbit.
The Orbiter version will do a little better than get you within 60,000 kilometers like the real one achieved. The flight profile included usually will get you to within 8,000 kilometers, and sometimes, depending on the mood of your copy of Orbiter, may even impact the moon! However since installations may vary, your distance to the moon on arrival, or even impacting the moon, is not guaranteed. Just like the real thing!

| F-111A |
|
File Description:
The purpose of this up date is because of the restore issue at the AVSIM lib. Secondly, this version V1.01 includes a bug fix for the compass gauge and the logic of the sonic sound. This panel has been designed according to the �F-111 Aardvark Pilot's Flight Operating Instructions� document published by the USAF. The design goal was to develop a panel and gauges
as close as possible to the original aircraft. It was not possible to program all the functionsand sub-panels, because of the complexity of the system and because of limitations in FSX.
The panel is a 2D panel. The panel has been developed from scratch as well as all the gauges.
All gauges are programmed in XML with the ACE tool from the MS SDK SP2 package.
The aircraft model, development by Mike Stone, has been used as the model for this panel. The model is part of the package. Other models may by used as well. However, the Light section and Flaps section in the aircraft.cfg may be modified accordingly in order to meet the requirements of this panel. There is an SP1 and SP2 Version. There are no tooltips in the SP1 Version. For installation and functional instructions, please read the PDF-Document
�F-111A-Panel-Documentation" which is included in the ZIP-File.

Grumman HU-16 Albatross 2.1
Greg Pepper, Michael Verlin
May 18, 2012
I am privileged to be honored with the custodianship of this model.
Greg Pepper is no longer with us. I wish to honor his memory and I've made a few modifcations to enhance this aircraft.
WHAT'S NEW FOR 2.1
The flight model is the most significant change. The flight model has been enhanced by the use of Jerry Beckwith's AirWrench.
The performance of the Albatross is now much closer to the parameters published for it. I've also adjusted the contact points for the hull.
Please make sure you adjust the fuel and payload before flying. This is a very heavy aircraft, and will be very sluggish if you attempt flight with full tanks and a full payload.
I've also added a few liveries, and modified several others. The colors and lettering of the U.S. Navy versions have been revised. The font the Navy uses is USN Long Beach. The paint colors are accurate now as well. You will also find new spin prop textures.
I've also slightly revised the original U.S. Air Force HU-16B and two of the U.S. Coast Guard liveries.
New for this release: U.S. Navy VXE6 UF-1L triphibian that served in the Antarctic, Chalk's G-111 and two new private liveries.

| CFQ5 - Silver City (Kluane Lake) - Yukon, Canada |
|

File Description:
This is a patch that should correct and brush-up the airport Silver City (CFQ5) in Yukon, Canada and furthermore some severe scenery discrepancies around the south-western shore of Kluane Lake close to it that are caused by elevation differences of the surface on both sides of Latitude N61.0 in the context with UTX Canada in combination with high resolution mesh like "FSGenesis" (tested by myself) or "FS Global Ultimate" (as reported by others). It may work in other configurations, too. However, the Microsoft standard scenery will likely be disturbed as the corrected shorelines are depending on Scenery Solutions Ultimate Terrain Canada X" (payware).

| Delta "Widget - Rebooted Clean Livery" Boeing 777-200LR |

File Description:
PMDG 777-200 LRX Delta Airlines Clean:This is a new version of my earlier delta widget it is clean and have a new high shine metal fuselage which gives much better reflections than my old version did. Also better looking windows framing.
I made door windows transparent and made new tires and gear and some general weathering . I have removed the cargo containers so it looks more realistic when loading / unloading baggage and containers when using AES or GEX.
Later I may update my old version of the dirty Widget with high shine metal fuselage. Readme included easy install via PMDG Operations Center. Enjoy!
