| Nikolski (IKO), Nelson Lagoon (Z73), & Perryville (AK5) - Alaska, USA |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
These are villages in Alaska, spread out east and west of Dutch Harbor in the Aleutians and the peninsula, served by Grant Aviation regional flights from Dutch Harbor, Cold Bay, or King Salmon.
Nikolski is 115 miles west of Dutch Harbor at the western end of Umnak Island, which is just west of Unalaska, the large island adjacent to Dutch Harbor. Nikolski is small, with a population of perhaps only 20 now, and the main claim to fame is the wrecked Reeve Aleutian DC3 at the end of the runway. The runway is 3,500 feet of gravel aligned 08-26. Nelson Lagoon is on the north shore of the peninsula, 55 miles north of Sand Point and on a long spit of land that curves around to make the lagoon. There is no access except by boat or plane for the population of around 50. The airfield is a mile east of the village with a gravel runway 08-26, 4,000 feet long. Perryville is on the south shore of the peninsula, 65 miles east of Sand Point. The population is around 115, and the airfield is southwest of the town with the 3,500 feet of gravel runway aligned 02-20 beside the shore. There is a hangar on the apron, but no terminal building.

| Peace River CYPE in northwest Alberta, Canada UPDATED |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is an updated version of the original post (from 2014) made in November 2018. It provides missing textures, and deals properly with an ai problem that I thought I had already fixed. It also adds extra objects to the apron area and adds a third gate. It is complete in itself and can be installed as-is if you do not have the original post. The Peace River flows east from the Rockies, joining up with the Slave River to empty into Great Slave Lake. The town is on both banks close to a bend where the Peace turns to the north, 245 miles northwest of Edmonton. The population is 7,000 and the surrounding area is either farmland or forest. The airport is just over 3 miles west of the town. The runway is 5,000 feet of wide asphalt (150 feet) aligned 04/22, lit, and with PAPI. There is a second runway to the south of the main runway, 1,900 feet of grass and aligned 08/26. The apron is to the north of the runway at the eastern end and is large; there is a purpose-built terminal building, plus other hangar buildings along taxiway C that extends westward from the apron. The airport is experiencing an increase in scheduled and GA flights in the last few years.

| Valdez Pioneer Field PAVD in Alaska |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Pioneer Field is in Valdez Alaska, between the mountains to the north and the water of Valdez Arm to the south. It used to cater for a lot of the work for the Alaskan pipline and the nearby terminal and in the middle 1970's it was a very busy place. That is not the case now, and the tower is no longer manned though there is still an average of 35 flights a day and there are 30 planes (and helicopters) based at the field. There are three really odd hangars at the western end of the apron, with each of them having 6 "T" hangars which have been joined in a circle; this is the only place I have ever seen this. The recently resurfaced runway is 6,500 feet of 150 feet wide asphalt aligned 6/24 at 121 feet asl. There is also a wide and heavy duty asphalt and gravel surrounding runoff and base, probably because of drainage problems with water from the mountains. Fuel (both JetA and 100LL) is available from ERA Helicopters at the eastern end of the apron. All of the buildings on the field have been modelled specifically for this scenery, plus the nearby accomodation blocks. The AI flights are for the twice-daily ERA/Alaska Air flights using a Bombardier Dash 8-200.

| Chignik Lake A79 and Port Heiden PAPH - Alaska, USA |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
These are two villages in Alaska, in the peninsula that is the start of the Aleutians. Both are east of Perryville, Chignik Lake by 30 miles on the south side of the peninsula and Port Heiden by 75 miles on the north coast. Both are served by Grant Aviation government-subsidised regional flights from King Salmon. Chignik Lake has a population of around 70. There are two buildings on the airfield, but passengers still wait in their car for the plane to arrive as there is no terminal building as such. The runway is 3,300 feet of gravel aligned 08-26, as are so many in this area. Port Heiden is on the north shore of the peninsula, and the population is around 100. FS9 showed the town as being large enough to house 10,000; the new landclass here reduces this to the actual 40 or so houses, one and a half miles south of the airport. The roads are still the FS9 originals, which are approximately in the right place but are brightly lit at night as I was too lazy. The main occupation is fishing. There are buildings on the airfield (mostly old, except for a garage building) but passengers again wait in their cars for the plane to arrive. The two runways are both gravel, and are 05-23 of 6,200 feet, and 13-31 of 4,400 feet.

| American Airlines NC Boeing 787-8 GE *** UPDATE *** |

Images related to this file:
File Description:
American Airlines NC Boeing 787-8 GE, for use with the Aerosim payware Boeing 787 (www.aerosim.co.jp).
This update of aalnc788ge.zip is a complete re-paint of the base colours of the fuselage and engines, creating patterns and gradients which better represent the mica silver used on the real aircraft. The gradients presented all sorts of interesting challenges matching where the textures get mapped onto the air frame in order to ensure that there are no stark differences at the joins. The work is now complete and the result is that the aircraft now really looks more silver than plain grey.
After completing the base colours, many fine details were also updated - such as cargo doors, decals, APU doors, nose cone, paint around the cockpit windows, detail under the fuselage, warning lines on engine and fuselage, and much more.

File Description:
This is the livery repainted by use of the Paintkit which was made by David Rawlins. The "zip" file contained texture files only and to be used with the AI Aardvark MD-8X Base Model available separately: (aia_md8x.zip).
U-Land Airlines was famous for its permotion price on first day operation "one NT dollar ticket". After that they set the ticket price to NT$800 from Taipei(RCSS) to Kaochung(RCKH). That was really under the market prices. They set the LCD screens for every seats and introduced the airshow system to all the passengers. That was really a pioneer in that time but the cost was far above the profit. At the year 2000, This company was forced to shut down the operation and never again. The Callsign was "U Land" and the three digit code was "ULA".

| Georgian Bay Airfields CYEM & CNR4 in Ontario, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
These are two airfields in Ontario around Georgian Bay, which is off the east side of Lake Huron in the Great Lakes. Manitoulin East Muni CYEM is at the northern end of the Bay in an area of coves and lakes, on what is actually an island that is almost but not quite connected to the mainland in several places. There is no immediately adjacent town and the field serves the county area. The runway is 3,500 feet of asphalt aligned 02-20 with PAPI at both ends. The second airfield is Tobermory CNR4, which is just south of the small town and ferry terminal of the same name on the northern end of the peninsula that forms Georgian Bay. The runway is 3,180 feet long and aligned 12-30; there is no longer a 450 feet displacement to the 30 threshold.

| GB-0112 - RAF Bassingbourn - Cambridgeshire, England |
|
File Description:
RAF Bassingbourn is a former Royal Air Force station located in Cambridgeshire approximately 3 mi (5 km) north of Royston, Hertfordshire and 11 mi (18 km) south west of Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, England.
RAF Bassingbourn was constructed by John Laing & Son between 1937 and 1939 in the parishes of Wendy and Bassingbourn immediately to the west of the A14 (now the A1198) road. The site selected was low ground between several tributaries of the River Cam. The area had been long cleared of forest and tended to be swampy and unstable, and because the boggy ground produced a persistent mist over the large meadow the site was considered ideal for airfield camouflage.
During the Second World War it served first as an RAF station and then as a bomber airfield of the Eighth Air Force, of the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF). It remains the home of the Tower Museum Bassingbourn. From 19 August 1942 to 25 June 1945, Bassingbourn served as headquarters for the 1st Combat Bombardment Wing of the 1st Bomb Division. It was assigned USAAF designation Station 121.
The RAF resumed occupation of Bassingbourn on 26 June 1945, the airfield was officially returned on 10 July 1945. The station became one of the main airfields for long-range transport aircraft. In 1948 and 1949 Avro York, Avro Lancaster and Douglas Dakota aircraft from the base took part in the Berlin Airlift, a massive operation transporting essential commodities to the beleaguered city.
In February 1952, RAF Bassingbourn received its first allocation of English Electric Canberra bombers and became the first jet bomber operational conversion unit (OCU) in the world. Canberras operated from Bassingbourn for 17 years and one of the aircraft is on static display in the Barracks. From 1963 to 1969 the Joint School of Photographic Interpretation was also located there.
On 29 August 1969, the last RAF Commanding Officer, Sqn Ldr A.M. McGregor MBE, turned over the station to the British Army as Bassingbourn Barracks.
The barracks were established, on the site of the former RAF Bassingbourn airfield, in January 1970, as the new Depot for the Queen's Division. The depot was responsible for training recruits undergoing their 19-week basic training before joining a regular battalion; in 1993 the Barracks were re-designated the home of the "Army Training Regiment, Bassingbourn" and remained as such for nearly 20 years. Bassingbourn Barracks closed as an army training location in August 2012.
The site was reopened for training Libyan soldiers in 2014 but closed down the same year.
Since approximately 1970 the site has retained its RAF links by being the home of 2484 (Bassingbourn) Squadron Air Training Corps.
