In 2010, the History Channel presented its "Most Extreme Airports", which was the inspiration for this mission. Here you are presented with the challenge of takeoff and landing at 5 of them. You will have the option of doing this twice...in 2 different aircraft, the first being a bit easier than the second. Successful landing grants you goal achievement and you are automatically advanced to the next airport challenge. Should you crash or otherwise fail, your airport progress is preserved, thus you do not have to save the mission in progress, simply reload at your convenience. You will fly ENSD, Anda, Norway in the Baron and KingAir; LFLG, Courchevel, France in the PiperCub and Cessna172; LPMA, Madeira, Portugal in the 737 and 747; LXGB, Gibraltar, UK in the CRJ700 and A321; and MHTG, Toncontin, Honduras VFR assisted with hoops and unassisted with 2.5 NM visibility. This mission lacks only the reward, which will be added to final version...Enjoy the Challenge at the "Advanced" skill level.

Quantas textures only for the "1 concorde final 2011-A" package from Libardo Guzman

"DHL" textures for the FSX default Boeing 737-800.

This is an update for FSX of the Alphasim RA-5C Vigilante made for FS9. I have given it a 2-D panel and put gauges on the virtual cockpit so both look similar. Best of all, the hud shows properly in the VC. I have adjusted the flight dynamics some as well. This is the whole aircraft.

FSX /FS2004 Fokker C.V-M/26. This aircraft made an epic flight from Copenhagen to Tokyo and back in 1926, flown by A.P. Botved (pilot) and C.J.C. Olsen (mechanic). The Fokker C.V was a very succesful series of aircraft used for reconnaisance, as a light bomber or a two-seat fighter. It could be fitted with a lot of different engines, and wings of several configurations. Version 1.1, modified to work with FSX as well as FS2004. By Jens B. Kristensen. 3.4MB

Textures only. Another R-11A, this time a surplus civil machine.There is ample precedent for a civil tanker, SiS Q operated tanked F7F's back in the '60's and 70's, and F-6 reporters were tanked,though I don't know where you would hang a tank on a F-11. Or use it for a super bird-dog, or a survey and mapping ship, or camera platform. But she sure looks sexy in Aero Union 'warpaint'. N927AU, Aero Union 27. Requires the XF-11 Redux package. Model by Ian Lawrence. Classic Wings version by Craig Richardson. Repaints by 3/7charlie.

Quick and dirty update of Jim Jacobson's original HUP to FSX MDLX native format, doors and DV windows on the usual door commands. The VC is from Mick Posch's H-21 Banana, it's all set up for that, viz: textures and eye points. NOTE: you will have to copy over the H-21 VC mdl file to the HUP model folder, the entry's are all made in the cfg file. Sound aliased to the H-21C, so you'll need that one installed. Bearing in mind that this is an ancient CFS2 model, the old hubschraber looks pretty good, and would benefit greatly from detailed textures. Skins by SOH's own Mick, adjusted for FSX viz: format and colour, some font adjustments. Model-Jim Jacobson, Baldy, and I guess I've added my own set of filemarks... Pilot by Tim Conrad, incidental bits, Y.T. LLS, 2017

FS2004 Aerospatiale Alouette III SAAF. The Alouette III was developed in the late 1950's as an improvement to the Alouette II, with larger cabin and improved equipment, all round performance and greater power. A light battlefield support helicopter of the South African Air Force. Original by Alan Devins, with repaint in SAAF colours by Keith Stein. 2.8MB
