| The flight of Frigate Bird II |
|
File Description:
By 1951 the final ocean to be traversed for air travel was the South Pacific between Australia and South America.
On 13 March 1951 Cpt. P.G. Taylor set off from the flying boat base at Rose Bay in Sydney with a crew of four. They made a shakedown flight to Grafton, NSW, landing on the Clarence River, and next morning headed east for South America. Stops were made at Noumea; Fiji; Samoa; Cook Islands; Tahiti; and Mangareva, French Oceania and then Easter Island before arriving in Valparaiso on 26th. March 1951.
The aircraft was subsequently presented to Captain Taylor by the then Prime Minister, Sir Robert Menzies, in recognition of the first air-crossing of the South Pacific Ocean and other pioneering flights.

| British Cessna 172 |
|
File Description:
This is a repaint only for the stock Cessna 172 in Flight Simulator X. (This will 'not' work in FS2004. This is a DDS texture set). This repaints the default Cessna to an actual British Cessna. This repaint uses the Garmin G1000 panel in FSX. However, if you wish, you can change it to the default panel by editing out "G1000" from the panel entry line in the config file and replacing all textures from another Cessna texture pack and placing in this folder (except for the file 'C172_T.DDS'). Remember to turn off 'Show Aircraft ID' as this aircraft features its own Registry in the paint scheme. By William Ortis.

| Orion Airways Boeing 737-2T4 'G-BKHO' |
|
File Description:
Orion Airways repaint for the excellent tinmouse 737-200adv package. This repaint represents G-BKHO. Orion where a charter airline, somthing to do with intasun, and kicked off in the early 1980's before being swallowed up by Brittania in the late 80's early 90's. Excellent livery i think in gold, orange and chocolate brown! Much missed. I used a lot of photos found online, along with images of logos, sick bags, and anything i could get my virtual hands on, as this also seems quite a forgotten airline in the virtual world just like air europe - if not more so!...Painted with the excellent tinmouse paintkit - 32bit. Textures only! You must have the Tinmouse 737-200adv v2 base package available here at AVSIM

| Chelsea Dams on the Gatineau River |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
The Chelsea Dams are on the Gatineau River, just north of Rockcliffe airfield. I have used the plural as while there is only one dam as such, there is a second generating station just south of the dam; so "it" is more generally called "the Chelsea Dams". The dams mark the point where, if you are flying south down the Gatineau River towards Rockcliffe, you should be either below 1,500 feet or talking to the Ottawa control tower. While not a reporting point as noted in the supplement notes about flying vfr in the Ottawa area the dams are still the natural reporting point when approaching Rockcliffe and announcing landing intentions. Plus they are a visible landmark from way off, so here they are.

| Boeing 747-400 Replacement Lightmaps |
|
File Description:
The paints are:
Air France (Triple pack) (same lightmap for all) / Air France (Combi) / Air India / Air Pacific (both paints) (same lightmap for all) / British Airways / Cathay Pacific / Eva Air / Eva Air (Combi) / KLM (old) / KLM (new) / KLM (old Combi) / Korean Air / Malaysia Airlines /
Philippine Airines / Qantas (GE) / Virgin Atlantic.
This archive contains only Lightmap textures for the above paints.
1st off, I'd like to apologies for my big screw up. Seems like I've messed up all the lightmaps that I uploaded to do with my own paints. All paints by Daniel DiBacco and Peter Pavlin are 100% correct and you do not need to fix those. Only AI Aardvark Boeing 747-400 paints by Boback Shahsafdari need to be fixed.

| Finnair 747SP (Project Opensky) |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Fictional Repaint of the Project Opensky 747SP PBR Model in Finnair old colors. Finnair never flew the 747 But I like this livery. These are 32bit textures and for the PBR model for P3Dv4.5. Should work in P3Dv5 although I have not tested it. They will not display properly in FS2004, FSX or P3Dv1-3 as there is no alpha channel. The PBR model gives off enough reflection for realism. Many THANKS to Carl Lyndon Nepomuceno and his team for the PBR conversion of this model and THANKS Hiroshi Igami for allowing this project to happen!!! These are textures only. You must have the 747-SP PBR model in order to use these textures. Follow the README file for installation.

| Skybus Airlines Airbus A319 Pack |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Skybus was an ultra low cost airline based in Columbus, OH, based off of Europe's Ryanair. To reduce competition, the airline would often fly to secondary airports where commercial traffic was lighter. The airline first flew on May 22, 2007, but it was forced to shut down less than a year later due to rising fuel costs and a slowing economic environment.
Skybus had a fleet of all A319s, painted in a few different liveries. This package contains the full orange livery as well as the white livery. It was intended that these white livery planes would be used as flying advertisements. I have also included Skybus's paint scheme promoting its $10 airfares. All three variations have been painted here on the excellent Project Airbus model. Enjoy!

| Air Holdings Vanguard 952F G-AYLD |
|
File Description:
With quite a few unplaced Vanguards on their books, Air Holdings decided to operate some the aircraft in their own right. This aircraft had been conveted to "Merchantman" standard by the company so was pressed into service wearing the livery of British Air Ferries who at that time was owned by the group. Carrying Air Holdings titles, its career as such was brief lasting from August 1971 until January 1972 when it was sent off to join Air Trader of Sweden as SE-FTH. Later it served with Europe Aero Service as F-BUFT, then Air Gabon as TR-LBA, before ending it's days in a crash at Marseilles in Feb 1989 as F-GEJE of Inter Cargo Service. Requires the FSDS Vanguard model by Rick Piper.
