FSX Gauge: VTOL/Hover for Alphasim's FSX MV22-Osprey V2.0 |
![]() |
File Description:
This freeware gauge adds new VTOL & Hover features to Alphasim's FSX MV22-Osprey.
Besides true vertical takeoff&landing, it allows you to fly forward, backward,
sideways and turn, while in a hover.
This solution is based on overriding the normal FS flightdynamics while in a
hover; in short, it's a VTOL&Hover FDE coded in a gauge.
Special thanks to:
1. Doug Dawson, who created a gauge that provides for overriding
FSX variables from an XML gauge.
2. Nick Needham, for his rotorwash effects.
Requires FSUIPC4 (registered or unregistered, NOT included).
The README includes extensive installation and flying instructions.
For FSX ONLY !!!!

Offutt AFB Traffic Package Full-Fix |
![]() |
File Description:
This is a fix for Offutt AFB Traffic Package Full. In the original package I accidentally omitted 2 callsigns for the package: BAMA and OSPREY. I have fixed a couple of bugs in the aircraft.cfg file with the original package. You will need to recopy the aircraft.cfg file for the callsigns to work properly. There was an extra Texture set included with the package. Go ahead and delete texture.RCH_WR_12 from the PAI B703 model. You will have 13 textures and 14 aircraft. Two of the aircraft share the same texture file.

File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the Milviz DHC-3 Otter. It shows VH-EAZ of Qantas. Built in 1958 with c/n 258, it was shipped to Australia and became VH-EAZ 'Kerowagi', and started flying in Papua New Guinea. In 1960, it was sold to Trans Australian Airlines (TAA), where it was reregistered to VH-SBT. In 1968, it went to Air West in Canada, where it became first CF-XRI and later C-FXRI. In 1987 it was bought by Osprey Wings, where it is still current as a Turbo Otter. I have included material for the wheeled and amphibian versions. Repaint by Jan Kees Blom, based on the paintkit by Milviz.

File Description:
La Ronge (Barber Field) is situated approximately six and a half kilometers north of the town of La Ronge, Saskatchewan, Canada. The present La Ronge airport was constructed beginning in 1976, notably as the central base of operations for the Province of Saskatchewan's water bomber fleet. The airport is home to maintenance facilities and a tanker base of operation for a fleet of CL-215, CL-215T, Convair 580 and deHavilland (Grumman) Tracker water bombers. The airport is also a major base of operation for Transwest airlines, West Wind Aviation, Osprey Airways and other bush operators.
CYVC was constructed using GMAX and represents the airport as it was in the Summer of 2009. It includes custom models of all the buildings at the airport, runway signs, taxiway and runway lighting, hangars, terminal building, custom vehicles and the seasonal tanker operations base. CYVC includes custom tarmac and textures to replicate the retardant and oil stained tanker ramp.

US Navy Collection, with Flyable UAV |

File Description:
Unfortunately the Navy has cancelled or scaled down most fleet week celebrations around the nation. With this collection, you can stage your own!
Among the latest and hottest additions to the US Navy arsenal is the LCS. Two versions have been developed, the trimaran corvette by General Dynamics and Lockheed Martin's version, which promise to give a double black eye to Al Qaida, Somali pirates, or anyone else that opposes Freedom and Independence. Also are included in this package are the Arleigh-Burke class destroyer USS Fitzgerald, the Ticonderoga class cruiser Lake Champlain and two Oliver-Perry class frigates, FFG-58 Samuel B Roberts and FFG-60 Rodney M Davis. The centerpiece of the fleet is LHD-2 USS Essex and thanks to Arno's fantastic ModelConverterX, Essex is able to feature a highly detailed deck packed with 7 F-35b JSF, 6 MV-22 Osprey, 5 CH-53 and 2 Seahawks. Finally, SSN775 Texas, as part of the collection is available for patrol. All ships have landable decks, night lights and animation effects. Texas as a submarine is more of a boat, I believe, but it has navigation lights and wake effects.
I have also included another hot Navy addition, the RQ-8 fire Scout. There are two versions, a static RQ-8b lashed to the deck of Independence and an RQ-8c with the Flir Brite Star electro/optical turret which I have made flyable, largely for absence of deck space to place it as static.
Make no mistake that the Essex model is very resource intensive, with all it's polygons and what have you. The night lighting is stunning (imo) but seems to have an even heavier effect, you've been warned..

Flightplan Visualizer 1.12 |

File Description:
Flightplan Visualizer (FV) version 1.12.0. Copyright 2018-2019 by Pelle F. S. Liljendal ([email protected]), all rights reserved.
FV comes with 540 pre-imported Commercial AI flightplans (+380 BizJet flightplans are available as a separate download). However you are able to import additional (AI) flightplans yourself. Once imported these (AI) flightplans can be visualized on a map-view, and the user will be able to search accross all these. Hence you can use the program as inspiration as to which routes to fly. E.g. you can search across all imported flightplans to find all flights in an A321 flying into/out from LDDU, or simply to look for all flights in a Boeing 747-8F.
Simply run the included installer to install the software. The program will be installed into "C:\Program Files (x86)\Flightplan Visualizer" and all datafiles will be installed into: "C:\Users\[UserName]\AppData\Roaming\FlightplanVisualizer". The program comes with a full manual explaining everything, and a 3 page quick manual to get you started. The first 3 times you run the program the quick manual will automatically open. The forum is hosted here: https://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/forum/919-flightplan-visualizer/
Version 1.12 Contains the following changes: ⦠Ability to automatically check for available program-updates. The actual download of the new installer is still a manual process, but the program will at least list the download-URL. However You cannot see this feature in action until the next version will be released ;-) Updated the flightplan file-format to accommodate changes in the latest versions of (AI) flightplans. The program remains backward compatible and can still read older flightplans, however these might “miss†some (at this time) non-essential information. As a result all “Wi18-19†and “Su19†(and a few “Su18) flightplans have been re-imported and have been bundled with the version 1.12 installer, using the new file-format. Added new "Generate redirection report" button to the redirection edit form. Pressing this button will generate- and display a report of all active pseudo airports and redirections per flightplan. Added new menu-item to re-process all flightplans, according to specified airport-redirections. The "UserAirportRedirect.xml" file bundled with the installer have been updated, based on output from the new "Generate redirection report". These updated airport-redirections have been used to re-process/update all flightplans bundled with the installer. Buttons have been added to the "Leg Info" which allows you to transfer data for a particular leg/flight from FV to SimBrief in order to kick-start your "paper work" for a flight to fly. The "Leg Info" form also got buttons to show decoded METAR/TAF, and the raw METAR/TAF is also embedded in the text copied to the clipboard (when pressing the appropriate button). In settings you can now speficy the path of the folder holding the files that MakeRunway generates (if not specified it will use the UserData folder). Once set to the folder where MakeRunway generates its files (e.g. the P3D folder), you only have to run MakeRunway, you no longer have to copy the 3 files to the UserData folder. A few new traffic-charts were added to the "Airport Info" form (traffic per: region, sub-region and country), and a combo-box was added to switch between inbound- and outbound-traffic. The "Nearby Airport" form that can be opened from the "Flightplan Import" form now have an extra comment-column with information about the non-pseudo/pseudo airports. The comment column on the airport tab-sheet of the "Flightplan Import" form now also contains more info about non-pseudo/pseudo airports. The Generic Randomizer form got a new button called "Pick random flight", which will display info for a flight, randomly picked from all flights for the selected flightplan, or last search. In the "Search legs" form, you can now enter multiple ICAO-codes (separated by comma) to search for flights to/from these (e.g. search for all flights to/from EBLG or ELLX, by entering "EBLG,ELLX"). If you press SHIFT while clicking the airport browser button, the selected airport will be added to the comma separated list. If you do not hold SHIFT, the list will only contain the newly selected airport. Added support for using FS Global Real Weather (FSGRW) as a Weather provider for METAR-messages (FSGRW does not support TAF-messages). To use FSGRW you must go to settings and specify a full path (including filename) of the file generated by FSGRW. When editing a flightplan the user will be warned if trying to close the form, if changes were made. The menu-item to generate report with all defuct-/obsolete flightplans have been removed from the main-menu, but can now be generated using a button on the "Enable/disable flightplans" form. Now all applicable authors are shown when hoovering the mouse over the flightplan combo-box when a search is active. In previous versions the "Edit" buttons next the flightplan combo-box (on the main form) was only active when a flightplan was selected. Now its also active when "[Last Search]" is selected. However it will instead launch the "Search Legs" form, where you can then edit the criteria of the search. A few airports and airlines have been added/updated in the data-files bundled with the updated installer to accommodate the additional bundled flightplans. The Beluga XL Freighter was added as well as many of the other aircraft were updated with various changes. Added support for a bunch of military aircraft: A6/AE6, A10, C5, C17, E2, E3, EF2000, F14, F15, F16, F18, F22, F35, F111, F117, JAS39, KC10, KC135, MiG 21/23/25/27/29/31, Mirage III/5/2000, Rafale, SU 17/20/22/24/25/27/30/32/34, V22. New "Exclude military aircraft" setting have been added (defaults to true). When true military aircraft will not be shown (can be changed in the settings form). Added new menu-item to load/display current log-file. FV tend to be somewhat memory-hungry while (re)loading all active flightplans, and you might see a peek in memory consumption. But from this release and forward it will try to free up most of the memory once all flightplans have been loaded. Minor changes to the "Enable/disable flightplans" form, to make it more responsive, and added a progressbar that is visible while flightplans are being moved, copied or deleted. Fixed: issue when trying to import a flightplan zip-file containing multiple "Flightplan_XXX" files. If the same zip contains multiple sets of matching files (Flightplan, Aircraft and Airport) the user will now be presented with a combo-box from where the user can pick which set of files to import (only the flightplan-file will be shown). Fixed: The file "f5.csv" was missing from previous installers. Fixed: issue with pseudo-airports when using the "Nearby airports" tab-sheet in the Airport Info form. Fixed: Saving a flightplan that was edited, it would try to save it in the (flightplan) [ROOT] folder even if it was loaded from a sub-folder. Now it will always try to save it in the same location with the same filename. If you want it saved elsewhere/with another filename use the "Save As" button in stead. Imported flightplans will still be saved to the [ROOT] flightplan folder. Fixed: Pressing ENTER in the Flightplan import/edit-form while the comments-field had focus, would close the form (saving the flightplan). Fixed: Result-viewer will no longer display with all text selected. Fixed: METAR/TAF decoder will no longer display with raw-message selected. Fixed: In some cases the program needed to be restarted if changes were made to the weather-provided data in the settings-form. Installer: Comes with +30 new pre-imported (Summer 2019) flightplans of which some are replacements of obsolete flightplans (from previous installers), and 2 of the "old" flightplans have been marked as defunct.
