This is Part 1 of the now defunct Profile Publications issues 1-20. They will prove very useful for repainters and aviation enthusiasts, as each issue contains color PDF profiles, text on the history and photos of each aircraft. By Nick Tselepides

FSX, Flypad Gauge Version 2.0 This gauge has been developed on Win7 for FSX Flight Simulator SP2 or SP1.It should also work with Acceleration, but this is not guaranteed by the author. The gauge is a little extra addon based on the design of a smart phone and provides 9 different displays which are different from all of the standard gauge displays on a regular aircraft panel. It is mainly helpful for the user flying small propeller aircraft, and old timer aircraft. However, the displays are as well attractive for sim pilots flying modern jet aircraft. Use it as if you just grabbed to your smart phone during a flight and check on the status of your aircraft, or how the terrain awareness situation looks like, how the AI traffic on the radar is, while you proceed with your flight plan. Enjoy the new design of a simple aircraft attitude display during an ILS approach. A new screen for LAT/LON coordination control and distance/bearing calculation has been added to this version in addition with a number of improvements. For credits look at the pdf documentation inside the zip file. By Dietmar Loleit

FSX/Acceleration/FS2004/P3d.V3 Package DeLorean Cars. The bare metal DMC-12 series with its gullwing doors was built in Northern Irland between 1981 and 1982. Very famous became that car with the three "Back to the future" movies. This package contains three models: The default model and two Back to the future-models which can be driven as a car or flown as a STOL aircraft with animated gear. One is with external FSX camera views, the other one allows passing a time tunnel. Regarding the girl on the side of Dr. Brown it seems the timejump goes back to the 50th. All models comes with photorealistic 2D panels and equal VCs. Simultaniosly to the gear the dashboard changes from car- to aircraft gauges. The FSDS 3.5 models with panels are made by Erwin Welker. The special gauges and lights are made by Pierre J. Carosin.

Fix for HMS Hood with weapon switchboard. Now the required gauges are included, the Panel.cfg includes the FSX lookaround configuration and the Smoke effects in the Aircraft.cfg differs correctly for FS2004 and the other simulators. Sorry for inconvienience! Erwin Welker

FSX/Accel/FS2004/P3d.V3 Package battlecruiser HMS Hood. Laid down in 1916, commissioned in 1920, she remained the largest and most powerful warship in the world for twenty years and was the proud of the Royal Navy. Together with the modern battleship Prince of Wales she was sent in May 1941 to intercept Germanys new battleship Bismarck and the heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen. In the battle of Denmark Strait Hood got an deadly hit, exploded and sank within few minutes and lost her whole crew except three men. The package contains two pilotabe vessels, one is with a circling BF-109 and an ai-model. The pilotable version has plenty of animations which can be controled by a switchboard or with the common key commands. Twenty eight camera views let you explore most of the decks. The panel provides 2D views in eight directions plus a virtual view from the flybridge. The ai-model is supposed to be used with the great tool aicarriers2.

Quality Police Vehicle textures only for Mitsuya Hamaguchi's (Hama) Mitsubishi Pajero. I wanted to create a police car for UK use, but given the constraints of the texture files and my limited abilities, this has turned out a sort of UK / Australian hybrid. More Australian, in fact. Complete with uniformed cop (yep, ..definitely Australian), I've also tidied up the interior a bit. These were created in P3Dv2.5, but should work fine in FSX and FS9 (Not P3Dv4). Textures only - you will need Hama's original Pajero installed.

FSX/Acceleration/FS2004/P3d3.5 Package of Vintage Racing Cars. The package contains a Mercedes SSKL from 1931; one of the fastest and powerful cars of that era, a Bugatti 35b from 1927; winning over 1,000 races in its time and as third model a duel between this two racers. All models comes with photorealistic 2D panels and equal VCs; the SSKL even with animated hood and original engine. The FSDS 3.5 models with panels are made by Erwin Welker. The vintage gauges, lights and FDE tuningw are made by Pierre J. Carosin.

FSX/Accel/FS2004/P3d Soviet Cruiser Slava. Three of ten planned ships of the soviet Slava class were built between 1976-79. With a length of 186 m it carrierd 16 containers for SS-N-12 missiles, 64 vertical launchers for SA-N6 missiles and two twin launchers for SN-4 missiles, a 130 mm twin gun, six 30mm guns plus a Kamov Ka-27 helicopter for anti submarine warfare. The cruiser reaches with a power of 130.000 sHp a speed of 32 knots. After modifications Slava was renamed to Moskva and she and her 2 sisters are still serving the russian navy. The sim model has a lot of animations (controlled by a switchboard) inluding missile launches of all three types and a Kamov Ka-27 helicopter which is deployed out of the hanger doing take offs and landings. Twenty four camera views let you explore the decks and enjoy the animations. FSDS-model, panel-, camera- and weapon configuration by Erwin Welker. Weapon switchboard by J.P.Carosin

Approach CallOuts consists of two Lua scripts and a sound folder with wav files that work together to provide altitude, gear and flap settings, and approach minimums (Decision Height) audio callouts on an approach to landing. The altitude callouts are at Radio Altimeter (RA) heights of 2000, 1000, 500, 400, 300, 200, 100, 50, 40, 30, 20, and 10 ft. At 800ft RA (a user settable value) you get a callout of current flap and gear positions. There is no gear callout if the aircraft has a fixed gear. The minimums callout may be based on a RA or BARO (MSL) altitude. A registered (payware) copy of FSUIPC is required to execute the Lua scripts.
