File Description:
Fictional repaint of the Project Opensky 747SP PBR Model in Eastern Airlines/Pan Am colors. This was originally on a 747-100 that Eastern aquired from Pan AM. 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.

| Groundhandling gauges, V3.2 |
|
File Description:
This archive contains version 3.2 of my "groundhandling"
gauges, and work for both FS2002 AND FS2004. Like: automated
pushback with conversation sounds, a Taxispeed controller using
throttle AND brake settings, an arming switch that activates Taxispeed
after a landing (incl. setting flaps, spoilers, autobrakes Off), Brakes sound,
etc....
It can be added to any FS2002/FS2004 aircraft panel, including
aircraft with Magneto-based engines (which was a major problem in the
previous versions).
Fully documented, including extensive installation and upgrade
instructions. It's a complete package (including a solution
for playing "xml sounds" in FS2004) in one .cab file, and does not require
any other addons, like FSsound or FSUIPC.
V3.2 solves 2 issues with using the Brakes. See included file
"Upgrade V3.1 to V3.2 . txt".

File Description:
Fictional Repaint of the Project Opensky 747SP PBR Model in KLM Colors circa 85. There are two different texture folders for P&W and Rolls Royce engines. 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.

| Lake Hood AI for LHD and Z41 in Anchorage Alaska |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This has two float planes doing touch-and-goes on the lake and some planes taking off and landing on Lake Hood Airstrip Z41. This update (20 July 2010) revises the Z41 AI as I discovered that touch-and-goes do not work in FS9 on a runway that is under 4,000 feet, so they have been modified to flights between Z41 and PANC. It is a self contained update that includes the one new building that is modelled specifically for this scenery, plus some minor corrections such as moving a plane from where it is parked on top of a car. You should have already installed my recent post (July 2010) of Lake Hood LHD and the Lake Hood Airstrip Z41.

File Description:
CYWG is an international airport located in the city of Winnipeg, which is the capital of the Province of Manitoba, in the western part of Canada. This scenery provides an accurate depiction of CYWG for Flight Simulator FS2004. It includes the entire airport as well as many of the surrounding industrial and warehouse buildings. The scenery includes static aircraft, an extensive array of ground support equipment representative of types and operators at CYWG, vibrant night lighting and seasonal texture variations.
CYWG WINNIPEG 2020 is a very detailed scenery best run on a higher-end PC. To make the airport more flyable for a greater range of FS9 users, CYWG Winnipeg comes packaged with options for three editions and ability to turn certain features on and off.

| B17 Flying Fortress |
|
File Description:
The B17 is arguably the best known heavy bomber from WWII. Followed closely by it's direct successor the B29 SuperFortress it symbolizes the best of WWII's heavy Bombers. The B17 was one of the planes that barely made it into the war. In 1934 the then very small Boeing company had a prototype four engined bomber design called the B-299 but it had not been ordered by the US military. It had suffered several serious setbacks in it's design competition including a crash during a fly-off. Boeing continued work the plane and eventually secured a small service test order and the troubled early history of the bomber began.
The B17 and bombers like it were planes created as "strategic bombers". The essential idea was that a strategic bomber should be able to carry a very large payload for long distances. The military had come to the realization that bombing technology was by nature imprecise even with new advances like the American Norden sight, and what was required was a large number of bombs delivered by large number of planes to assure that a target was destroyed. Although the Germans actually had a decent "smart bomb" and the British built specialty bombs, neither was reliable, so it seemed the best idea was just to blanket the target with bombs.
An American extension to this concept was that of a self-defended bomber. Bombers could be built so tough and with so much defensive armament, it was thought, that they could simply fly to the target, drop bombs, and if necessary fight their way through fighters to get home. There would be security in the large number of bombers in formations, and the defensive capability would allow bombers to fly during the day for better accuracy in drops. It was to this design concept the B17 was built.
Early experiences in the war with B17's and B-24's could only be termed as disastrous. Loss rates of up to 25% showed the concept of unescorted bombers in daytime to be entirely wrong. Escort fighters were a necessity for success. It soon became apparent that with fighter cover the B17 really was an unparalleled strategic bomber. Success for the B17 shot up dramatically, and it's initial design specifications of huge amounts of armor and gunner positions served it well when fighters did make it close in. The Fortress had enough strength to stave off attackers until escorts showed up, and it became legendary for the incredible punishment it could take and still make it home.

| Supermarine Spitfire Mk.IX (N74138) US Air Attaché |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the Spitfire Mk.IX by FlyingIron, in the colors of Spitfire PR.XI (PL983) N74138. It originally flew with the RAF as a reconaissance aircraft, but in 1948 was given to the US Air Attaché in London, Tony Satterthwaite, as his personal aircraft. It received the US civil registration N74138. He often let Lettice Curtis fly his aircraft, and she used it in 1948 to take part in an air race with #4. Lettice Curtis was one of the first women to fly with the ATA, the Air Transport Auxilary, and flew no less than 1467 aircraft during the war, including many Spitfires and 4-engined bombers. The aircraft is still airworthy after several restorations, and recently flew as the 'Thank U NHS' Spitfire. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom.

| Malaysia Airlines "Retro" Boeing B747-4H6 (9M-MPP) |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Malaysia Airlines is currently painting a 747-400 in a retro livery. The aircraft the livery is being applies on is 9M-MPP. The latest news is that MH is to re-activate the 747-400s back to service and use them as substitute aircraft for the A380s when they undergo routine maintenance. As LHR is now the only schedules A380 route for MH, when one of their A380s goes offline for Mx, a 747-400 is meant to take over. LHR can be sure to hope for a 744 to visit once again. The cabin is also being upgraded alongside this retro livery. This repaint contains my updated exterior night lighting. Requires the payware Overland / Simmer's Sky 747-400 model to work. Should work in *BOTH* FSX and FS9.
