KLM Douglas DC-3 PK-ALW Download

File Description:
After the occupation of the Netherlands in May 1940 several KLM DC-3's got stuck in the Dutch East Indies. One of them was PH-ALW 'Wielewaal' ('Oriole'). Although the DC-3 was operated as PK-ALW by KNILM from 1 June 1940 on, she was still owned by KLM and as such flew the shortened "Indies-route" Batavia to Lydda (Palestine, by then under British mandate). On 7 March 1942 PK-ALW was the last civil aircraft to leave the Dutch East Indies when the Japan invaded the island archipel. From then on the aircraft continued its career in Australia, first as a military aircraft and after the war as an airliner, registered VH-INR. The DC-3 still exists (2007) as a static museumpiece of the Queensland Air Museum in Caloundra, Queensland. The repaint of PK-ALW is based on the templates Mark Beaumont created for the MAAM-SIM Douglas DC-3 (passenger version), which were based on Jan Visser's original textures. This repaint has not been tested for FSX but will probably function there as well. Repaint by Maarten Brouwer.

Nakhon Phanom Royal Thai Air Force Base (NKP) Download

File Description:
A model of Nakhon Phanom Royal Thai Air Force Base (NKP). Situated in the far northeast corner of Thailand right across the Mekong River from Laos, NKP was the smallest, remotest, and most primitive of the Thai airbases utilized by the US Air Force. Many of the operations conducted at NKP were top-secret. NKP was the headquarters of "Task Force Alpha", the underground command center directing "Arc Light" bombing of the Ho Chi Minh trail. The 56th Air Commando Wing employed a variety of fixed wing aircraft and helicopters for interdiction, close air support, psychological warfare, search and rescue, forward air control, and clandestine insertion and extraction of special operations personnel in Laos and North Vietnam. One of the key covert missions conducted at NKP was "Operation Igloo White", which involved the planting and monitoring of electronic sensors along the Ho Chi Minh Trail. Air America used NKP as a base to supply the various hill tribes in Laos. This is the fourth in a series of Vietnam War era Thai airbase models. (It was preceded by Ubon, Udorn, and Korat.) Note: This scenery requires the trees_v3.zip object library by Gerrish Gray.

RAF Molesworth Download

File Description:
At the start of World War II the Air Ministry selected the area as the site for what would become RAF Molesworth. The base was built in 1940 and 1941. The first unit, Royal Australian Air Force 460 Squadron was formed at the base on November 15, 1941 with Vickers Wellington IVs. 460 Squadron departed the field on January 4, 1942. RAF Bomber Command 159 squadron moved in shortly afterwards, however this unit did not remain long, moving to the Middle East on January 12. Molesworth was one of the early Eighth Air Force stations assigned to the United States Army Air Force (USAAF). In February 1942, General Ira Eaker and four US staff members inspected Molesworth for possible American use, and during 1942 the facility was improved to Class A airfield standard, with all of its runways extended to American specifications for heavy 4-engined bombers. The main runway was lengthened to 2,000 yards and the number of hardstands increased to fifty. It was given USAAF designation as Station 107. From 16 September 1943 – 18 June 1945, Molesworth served as headquarters for the 41st Combat Bombardment Wing of the 1st Bomb Division.

Gulf Air Airbus A330-243 (Formula 1 c/s) Download

File Description:
A9C-KB (cn 281), version 1. Hand drawn recreation of the CLS A330-243 in Gulf Air's F1 livery, promoting the Formula 1 race that's going to be held at the new circuit in the beginning of April. It took Mr. Bader Murad and Gulf Air 5 years to get the livery from the drawing board onto the plane. Not like most of my other repaints, this particular repaint is rather clean, since no matter what I did, I couldn't rough her up alot without rendering the many layers to come up with the desertgrey/goldish/champagne colour useless. I did add some custom features like depress. panels and fuselage rivets to give it a realistic look and weathered the fuselage just a little. If you check above the windows and between the L2 and L3 doors, you can even see Mr. Bader's signature, just like on the real plane. These are textures only and intended for use on the Commercial Level Simulations Airbus A330 package. Installation is easy via the CLS livery manager or if you please ; even manually. Fly safe, land safe and enjoy the paint!

CYFB - Iqaluit Airport - Nunavut, Canada Download

Images related to this file:

File Description:
Iqaluit is the capital of Nunavut, a vast northern region that covers almost all of the Canadian North. The airport is of critical importance to the community, especially when ice makes boat travel impossible.

The scenery includes all airport buildings with custom designed and generic buildings nearby. Several typical airlines are represented, both by their flights by their facilities, including First Air, Canadian North, Air Greenland, Ken Borek Air and Keewatin. The Airbus A380 was in Iqaluit in February 2006 for flight testing in cold weather, as do other manufacturers. Airbus will also carry out the same tests for its new A350.

CYFB is also a Canadian Force base. Several units are parked in the military area, in addition to the C- 177 and his escort on ramp 2. A Twin Otter from the RCMP, and some general aviation aircrafts complement the fleet. Six ships are in the scenery: four static and two mobile (AI). Zodiacs and a balloon tourist flow into the bay. These, and the ships AI, start their movements 1100Z. The weather station launches a weather balloon regularly. Three small caribou herds are in the vicinity.

Grumman Albatross version 2.1 Panel Download

Images related to this file:

File Description:
FS2004 Grumman Albatross HU-16 version 2.1 Greg Pepper Michael Verlin Panel Package Along with the modifications I've made to Greg Pepper's wonderful Albatross, I felt that a upgrade for the panel was overdue. The changes consist of a revised set of primary flight instruments in keeping with the chronological period. The airspeed gauge is part of Greg's gauge set that he provided with the aircraft. The attitude gauge and turn indicator come from Jens Christensen's DC-6 gauge package. The altimeter, gyro and vertical speed were designed by Scott Thomas from his Aero Commander 500 gauge package. The Bendix King radios were designed by Pierre Fasseaux. The KLN90 gps was designed by Ike Slack. I've also included Rob Barendregt's Ground Handling package and the RKG Fuelstat gauge. A few notes on using this panel: Please read Pierre's instructions for proper operation of the autopilot before you fly. The GPS will load the flight plan you specify from FS9. There is a hot spot in the upper left corner of the radio stack that will close it when it isn't needed. Michael Verlin [email protected] May 27, 2012

OMAA - Abu Dhabi International Airport - Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates Download

Images related to this file:

File Description:
Abu Dhabi International Airport is an airport in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates. The airport is one of the fastest growing airports in the world in terms of passengers, new airline operators and infrastructural development. The airport is now undergoing a US$6.8 billion expansion. As of January 2012, 53 airlines offered service to 85 destinations in 49 countries. The airport is the second largest in the UAE, serving over 10 million passengers in 2010. It has three operational passenger terminals. Its terminal spaces are dominated by Etihad Airways, which is the United Arab Emirates' second largest air carrier after Emirates.

The new Terminal 3, a US$270 million interim facility, was designed to allow for the airport's passenger growth before the planned opening of the new Midfield Terminal in 2014. Used predominantly by Etihad Airways, the terminal boosted the airport's seven million passenger per year capacity to 12 million. It also added 10 new gates, two of which are Airbus A380 compatible.

Using ADEx 1.51, aeronautical maps and Google Earth this AFCAD is now on par with today's situation.

Mount Everest Expedition Download

File Description:
Two flightplans for an expedition to Mount Everest (8852 m). The first flightplan takes you from Lukla (VNLK) airfield at 10000 ft to Mount Everest Climb North: Base Camp. A distance of about 40 km. The recommended inbuilt aircraft for this trip is the "Maule Orion on skis". Be aware that you must climb to about 15000 ft before entering the GPS-path. Also, you should try to land across the slope. Otherwise it could be difficult to stop the aircraft from skiing down the inclined ground! The second flightplan takes you from Base Camp to Yak Camp* (at about 19000 ft MSL) sitting at a bend of the East Rongbuk Glacier. This is the first camp on the North Route. You should use a helicopter able to climb to about 20000 ft for this route. For example, the inbuilt Bell 206B JetRanger. Though, it will indeed be a challenge with this aircraft! *= It is called the Yak Camp because it is the point at which the yak herders overnight their yaks on the route up to Advance Base Camp (ABC) at 21300 ft.

Boundary Bay CZBB in British Columbia, Canada Download

Images related to this file:

File Description:
Boundary Bay is south of Vancouver in British Columbia, close to the US/Canada border. It is the 5th busiest airfield in Canada measured in terms of take offs and landings as there are several training companies based there. The airfield was purchased by Alpha Aviation in 2009 and and modernised for the 2010 Winter Olympics, the main addition being a new terminal. This is an ex-military training base which was built in 1941, and one of the original hangars still survives. The two runways in use now (07/25 5,600' and 12/30 2,750', both of them 100' wide) are reduced asphalted areas of the original runways; the third runway is now an apron for GA parking and has had hangars built along it. There is JetA and 100LL available. The large building at the east end of the north apron is a HQ and maintenance facility for a helicopter company, Heli-one. All of the north apron buildings on the field have been modelled specifically for this scenery, plus the nearby huge greenhouse farm structures which are visible from further away than the airfield is. AI for Boundary Bay will be posted later this week.
