A tutorial for adding smoke effects to FSX (and FS2004) aircraft. By Tom Tiedman

"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.

ATR 42/72 panel for FS2000 (standard/PRO) This is my newest ATR 42/72 panel, this was my fist panel what I ever designed, but now I have redesigned the panel. Now has the panel also cabin sign's and a real working wiper. This panel is now also compatible with GPWS products. This panel is tested in the follow resolutions without any problems: 640x480, 800X600 and 1024x748 I also have included some new winampskins (atr 42 and 72). Easy installation!
