Each of these three sky sets are one single sky, spread throughout all of the 10 days of displaying in FS2004. This is precisely what payware add-ons such as Flight Environment, FEX, and REX all do after a sky set is selected and installed into the sim. All texture bitmaps are completely re-worked default FS2004 sky textures, not a single one of any of them remain as the default ones. There is no performance hit, as the bitmaps are of the same size and weight class as the original 140 default textures. The nighttime sky textures have also been re-worked. Package includes 3 separate sets of sky textures, the sets representing clean air condition skies, each subtly different and realistic sets designed for better immersion in like conditions.

Package includes Set 1- "Thin Overcast", Set 2 - "Moderate Overcast", and Set 3 - "Thick Overcast". Each of these sky sets are very different and realistic overcast conditions skies designed for better immersion in overcast and storming weather conditions.

These sky textures are spread through the changing 10 days of displaying that FS2004 gives us. All texture bitmaps are completely re-worked default FS2004 sky textures, not a single one of any of them remains as the default ones. There is no performance hit, as the bitmaps are of the same size and weight class of the original 140 default textures. The nighttime sky textures should bring new life to your night flights, having been completely re-worked this past month. 20 to 50 miles visibility setting for daytime works well, with 50 miles to unlimited visibility at nighttime whenever possible being best. These sky sets are each subtly different, practical, and realistic sets designed to grow on you instead of growing old to you.

The Natural World in my mind is the most detailed graphics upgrade to date and goes a lot further than any other scenery package. TNW2017 upgrades the Ground, Sea, Autogen, Sky, Clouds, and other environmental settings transporting Flight Simulator 2004 into this decade when used with my and cfg file and other Tweak and settings. The use of the Texture Swap Programs enables FS to make use of over 3000 bespoke textures giving the overall visual experience a real boost

Garry Smith Archive Files: FS2004 Scenery - Transload Military Base - YTMD - Camp Thatcher. The Military Base is at the northernmost tip of Flinders Island - just off Tasmania. It has two major runways with lots of parking for military aircraft of all sizes. The scenery has some fun challenges such as a valley leading into Runway 19 and a high bridge off the other end. Camp Thatcher supports comprehensive AI traffic, with over 70 aircraft parked throughout; a majority of them are parked inside hangars and come out for their sortie twice a day. On an Island just offshore is a small, tight pylon racing track - and just off the end of Runway 19 is a set of very large pylons for racing at high speed. This scenery package contains some of the AI aircraft, however, the AI aircraft from the Transload Carriers pack is also used (and required), if you wish ALL the AI aircraft to show up. The entire scenery set consists of SIX separate packages, available here at Simviation (Search using the keyword "Transload). Developed by Garry J. Smith

Garry Smith Archive Files: FS2004 Scenery - Transload-AI-Traffic AI Traffic for Transload Virtual Airlines, in support of the Transload International Airport Scenery (YTLI) Package, which should ALREADY be installed. This package includes 11 AI aircraftf (predominantly from AI Aardvark) all wearing Transload Liveries. And they are very Frame Rate friendly, so feel free to push the "traffic slider setting" up to 100%. The traffic file contains a staggered set of flight plans: which means they are arranged in alternating or overlapping time periods. After installation, revisit YTLI again - the Transload International Airport - and see the difference!! Developed by Garry J. Smith

Hence, there's no need to hunt for any AI ship models from various sim sites.
