File Description:
This folder contains a repaint for the A2A WoP2 B-17G in the colors of B-17G-85-BO #43-38348 LG-O "Roxy's Special" of the 322 BS/ 91st BG based in Bassingbourne UK. #348 arrived in Bassingbourne on 18 August 1944, and very quickly received her nose art, by Corporal Tony Starcer. By 5 September, it had flown four missions to Germany. The next mission, on the 8th of September, was to the I.G. Farben Chemical Plant in Ludwigshafen, Germany. On board this mission was David McCarty, pilot, Neil M. Mylin, co-pilot, Donald L. Brazones, navigator, Frank S. Bolen, bombardier, John Cangemi, top turret, Frank F. Trim, Jr., ball turret, Charles E. Beebe, waist guns, Floyd Z. Dillon, tail gun, and Henry R. Schuls, radio operator. Around 11.35 hours, short of the bomb drop near Ludwigshafen, “Roxy’s Special†took a hit ripping off a wing. A spin ensued pinning Bolen and navigator Don Brazones in their nose bubble followed almost immediately by an explosion blowing them free of the aircraft. Bolen and Brazones were the only two survivors of “Roxy’s Special.†They both parachuted down, but not together, therefore neither knew the fate of the other until later. Bolen eluded capture for 7 days before being picked up and carted off to Stalag Luft 1 near Barth, Germany after interrogations. Brazones had been picked up before Bolen and processed through the channels to Stalag Luft 1. The two were reunited at Stalag Luft 1 where they spent the remainder of the war. On Sept. 14, 1944, the day Bolen was captured, his wife Frances gave birth to their first child, Linda, in Selma - a child Bolen would not see until returning from imprisonment and the war. The “Roxy’s Special†crash site was near a Lutheran Church in Ludwigshafen. A very respectful group of Germans removed the remains of the air crew and buried them in the local cemetery. After the war, the remains were turned over to American authorities and they moved them to a National Cemetery in Northern France. In 1947, Bolen served as casket bearer for David McCarty when he was brought home to rest in Birmingham.

| Avia BH-5 & Avia Bk.11 |
|
File Description:
The plane was constructed according to the type BH-1, the first successful plane produced by the Avia Works. It was an all-wooden two-seat training, sports and messenger plane, which was bigger than BH-1, more solid and more sophisticated, in its aerodynamics and technology. It was designed for flying basic acrobatics. The BH-5 was the first Czechoslovak plane to win an international contest and thus received the King of Belgium‘s Prize and the prize of the Belgian Tourist Aircraft Contest in 1923. The pilot, Zdenìk Lhota, flew to Brussels and back with a layover in Mayence at an average speed of 138 km/h. In 1923 this was a remarkable performance, not only in the sport-plane category. In 1923, the type BH-5 also won the “D“ category in the President of the Republic’s Contest. The Walter NZ-60, a radial five-cylinder engine, was installed in the BH-5 plane; it was the very first and a very successful engine designed by the Walter Company. Based on the results of military tests of the BH-5s, the Ministry of Defense placed an order for a series of slightly improved BH-9, BH-10 and later also BH-11 Avias, which had been successful in many national, as well as international contests and also in record and promotion flights. The BH-5 Avia plane was marked L-BOSA; thanks to this mark, all the planes of this very successful series were nicknamed “boska“. This addon has detailed 3D model and VC, original sounds, real flight dynamics and manual.

| RAF Brawdy 1979-1992 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
In September of 1974, No. 229 Operational Conversion Unit moved to Brawdy after the closure of RAF Chivenor. This unit was later renamed No.1 Tactical Weapons Unit, and became one of two TWU's equipped with the Hawk trainer. The Hawk and Hunter equipped Nos. 79 and 234 Squadrons. There were also some unique Jet Provosts present as well. The Camouflaged T Mk 4 JP's provided Forward Air Controller training for both the fast jet trainees and for army controllers.
The Hunters were retired by mid-1984, and the Jet Provosts had gone by the end of the 80s.
RAF Brawdy was itself laid to rest by the Royal Air Force, who moved out the Hawks during 1994 and had relocated to RAF Leeming. Brawdy was passed over to the army and renamed Cawdor Barracks.
This scenery includes all the Hawk aircraft of 1 TWU in both camouflage and air defence grey schemes, depending on your preferred choice. There are flightplans included, which are representative only, but enables the aircraft to fly to bases and checkpoints around the country.
I have also included flighplans for the RAF Hawker Hunter model by John Young (acg_hunters_raf_9.zip from flightsim.com), to be used in conjunction with the camouflaged Hawks.
The scenery has been constructed using objects mainly from MAIW sceneries, which will need to be installed in order to gain the full visual experience.
A BIG thanks to Nick Black for the use of his superb AI HAwk, and to Chris A. Brown for paint' 'em!

| Piaggio P-166 Collection |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This package contains a FS-X native conversion of all my original Piaggio P-166 models developed for FS-2002/2004. All versions are included: P-166A, P-166BL-2, P-166CL-2, P-166M, P-166S, P-166DL-3 and P-166DP-1. The 3D models are virtually the same, so these are fairly simple models. Yet they come with a VC (no 2D panel this time!). With respect to the FS-2002/2004 releases, they come with very much improved panels, in two flavors: Piston and Turboprop. Gauges developed by Milton Shupe & Scott Thomas for the Aero Commander / Turbo Commander Aircraft series, and Edgar Guinart López of Aeroproyecto for the Embraer 110. Other Gauges from my own Piaggio P-180 & PD-808. Also Included is a brand-new flight model redeveloped from scratch. The 3D models are mildly improved, with a proper pilot figure, main panel backlighting and bump-mapping. Please refer to the Reference and Checklist pages provided via the FS Kneeboard for flying and operating instructions. Models converted with Arno Gerretsen’s Model Converter X.
The Piaggio P-166 is a light small twin. An Exotic twin-engine prop that sold all over the world including America, UK, and Australia. Its origin is traced Back to the Piaggio P-136, a light amphibian, which the P-166 keeps the wings, the engines and the tail planes. The first P-166A flew in November 1957. The aircraft was still in production in the early 21st century in an improved turboprop version, the P-166DP-1.

| Australian Lighthouses - Part 3 - Victoria |
|
File Description:
Around Australia's coastline there are over 350 lighthouses.
I received a suggestion a month ago asking if I would do the locations of the lighthouses down the coast of New South Wales and when I did a bit of research I thought, why not do the whole 36,735 kilometres around Australia?
Parts 1 and 2 have already been released (4th./5th. February 2006).
Here is Part 3 - the lighthouses located across the coastline of Victoria, between the borders of New South Wales in the east and South Australia to the west. I have also included the several lights that are located within Port Phillip Bay and Port Melbourne.
A Read Me file is included. No third-party items are required.

| Placerville (KPVF) Scenery Update |
|
File Description:
An Update to the KPVF Placerville Scenery files. This update has two files, an AFCAD which has an additional GA parking spot named "W Parking 1". If you select this as your start location you will start your flight inside a green T hanger at the far end of the field where most of the additional scenery is placed. Also a new scenery file which has a lot more trees added to the northern area, which is what you see on the aerial photo. Also it corrects an error in which a stack of crates are hovering above the ground near the end of the parking ramp. You will need the original exclude file in the first KPVF Scenery so this is not a stand alone install.

| 1939 - Imperial Airways "Reserve" Route - England to Australia via Africa |
|
File Description:
In June 1939 a survey was carried out for a route between Australia and Great Britain in the event of war cutting the existing path through the Middle and Far East. Cpt. P. G. Taylor proposed a path across the Indian Ocean to Mombasa via Cocos Island, Diego Garcia and the Seychelles. On June 4th. the survey flight departed Port Hedland aboard the PBY-1 "Guba". In a similar fashion, Imperial Airways planned a "Reserve" route from Britain to Mombasa via Lisbon, the Canaries, Bathurst (West Africa) and Lagos. It is not known if this route was used in full or in part. This package includes two flights covering the entire route, one for the Imperial Airways section and the other for the "Guba" survey flight.
