Back in 2004, Manuel Amorim ("McDope"), one of the original add-on providers for Orbiter, released a package for use with Orbiter 031217. This package was for simulations of the Skylab program from 1973. While better meshes and models are available today, these models provide excellent frame rates and are still useful for simulations of past missions using historically accurate state vectors. I decided to update these models for use with Orbiter 2010 since the originals no longer work under the new Orbiter. Additionally, these models will provide for alternate history simulations with the Shuttle Fleet V4.8. I have added the UMMu capability to the Apollo, Skylab, and a docking module that will allow for shuttle missions and have created attachments for navigation / rendezvous and spot lights using historical documentation of the location of these lights. Finally, I have created the necessary docking port to allow for the attachment of the CMG V2.0 by "poscik" and the CMGmesh V1.0 by "c3po" for attitude control. Using the state vectors, I have provided historically accurate launch scenarios and undocking scenarios for use. One of the motion pictures that helped foster my love of spaceflight in my youth was the classic "Marooned" from 1969. Before there even was a Skylab, the crew of Ironman One spent months in an orbiting laboratory. In the movie, a Saturn V launched the lab, but I have created a "wet" workshop that can be launched by the Saturn-IB for this addon just for fun. Upon docking, switch to the workshop and deploy the solar arrays using "CTRL+K". This workshop can also accommodate the CMG add-on for attitude control. I hope you enjoy these "legacy" add-ons from the past of Orbiter as well as the enhancements I have created for them.

FS2004 YF-23A Update 2. This is my second update for Daniel Buchter's YF-23A (here). I have updated the flight dynamics, changed the burner effects, changed the touchdown effect, corrected the contact points as necessary, added a thrust gauge, digital trim gauge, and an autopilot to the panel for those, who like me, don't want to try and figure out the built in autopilot, and changed the panel view angle and zoom.

Scenery LFKA Albertville V1.0 for FSX Tested with SP2 + UTX Europe + Mesh 38m for FSX. V1.0: Initial version This file adds the Albertville airport in FSX. It was made with ADE (Airport Design Editor) and SbuilderX. Thank you to the respective authors. Albertville is a French commune, located in the department of Savoie and Rhone-Alpes. Located in the heart of the Alps, the town lies on the edge of the Tarentaise, Beaufortain and Val d'Arly in the Combe de Savoie. This location earned him the nickname currently Carrefour des Quatre Vallées. Its geographical position and its strengths mountain enabled the city to host the XVI Olympic Winter Games in 1992. This sporting event the world had known.

Project Opensky Boeing 737-800 Winglets Version for FSX. ASKY Airlines is a passenger airline founded on the initiative of West African governments, and has its head office in Lome, Togo. It operates across several West and Central African countries, operating out of its hub at Lome-Tokoin Airport. Repaint by Jacques Louw from South Africa. Uses the panel & virtual cockpit of the enhanced B737-800 by Alejandro Rojas Lucena.

FS2002 Concorde Flights: This is a set of four flights depicting a takeoff from Paris Orly over the North Atlantic to La Guardia New York. In order to eliminate the boredom of a 3-hour flight the whole route has been divided into the following separate flights: 1.Departure from Orly gate , takeoff and climb to cruise altitude 2.Descent from 60000 ft. 3.Approach to La Guardia 4.Ten miles from LaGuardia. This is made with FS2002. I highly recommend using the Concorde enhanced sound pack created by Martin Schwanke or you will be missing out on a big experience. Concorde for FS2002 and the sound files are available at here. For known bugs please read bugs.txt located in this folder. Created by Goran "BrzI". 347K

Revive the history aboard the Covered Wagon USS Langley (the first aircraft carrier of the US navy). On Oct. 17, 1922 Lieut. V.C. Griffin, in a Vought VE-7SF, took off from the USS Langley at anchor in the York River, Virginia, making the first take-off from an aircraft carrier.Took off from USS Langley at anchor in the York River, (Virginia) and land at Norfolk, (Virginia) where the plane will be loaded on to the Langley after the mission done. On 26 October 1922, Lieutenant Commander Godfrey de Chevalier, USN, flew his Aeromarine 39-B on to the flight deck of the United States Navy's first aircraft carrier, USS Langley (CV-1), while cruising off Cape Henry, Virginia.Chevalier had launched from the Navy's Yorktown Naval Aviation Field at Yorktown, Virginia. Took off from Navy Yorktown Naval Aviation Field, (Virginia) (The first naval air station in the mid-Atlantic region) and land on to the first US Navy aircraft carrier USS Langley while cruising off Cape Henry, VirginiaBe carefull of the fog and wind in this tempered region of Virginia Good luck !

"imp" means imperfect, as other mesh I have already processed is of areas that have very little vegetation cover - over the land, or has large urban areas. This "imp" mesh will include some slight discrepancies of altitude (in the case of forested areas - by a magnitude sometimes of +15 metres-depending on how tall the trees are, in the jungle or forest canopy) over urban areas, or areas with a lot of vegetation cover - due to the limitations of the ASTER satellites infra red scanning cameras, and the software used to process the DEM data. Areas where there is little vegetation cover, or non urban areas, the terrain should have truer values. But I feel this ASTER DEM data is so good - why let it all go to waste - especially flying over lovely Pacific islands? So you FSX users out there will have to take all this into account when using this mesh. Grateful thanks to ERSDAC, and NASA for making this data freely available to the public.
