This rare aircraft has originaly been created by Torsten Abraham and Andreas Poppe. The panel and sounds had been done by their friends. From my side I just added a repaint in fictional Lufthansa colors from another friendly author and thre different 2D panels in different configurations of my own. I just want to republish this rare bird as she merrits not to be forgotten Happy landings Michael Vder

Built as a B-25J for the USAAF as 44-30925, MSN108-34200 was converted to a TB-25N at some stage in its service, before being stored at Davis-Monthan in August 1958. Sold in 1960 as N9494Z, she went through a variety of owners before appearing in “Catch 22” as “Laden Maiden”. After filming, Colonel John Stokes bought the aircraft in 1975 and restored the colour scheme as she appeared in the film. Colonel Stokes very kindly sent me several photographs of N9494Z when she wore the scheme that I have used on this model. The late John Jeff Hawke bought her in 1978 to continue her film career appearing in the documentary “Mitchells do fly in IMC”, then in “Hanover Street” as “Gorgeous George-Ann”, and finally as “Thar She Blows” in “Eye of the Needle” in 1980. Her film career over, she was stored at Blackbushe becoming derelict, until 1982 when she was dismantled and trucked to Wellesbourne Mountford in 1982 and then to Coventry in 1985, still owned by John Jeff Hawke/ Visionair International. In 1985 Aces High bought the aircraft registering her as G-BWGR and moving the hulk to North Weald. She was then sold to David Copley in 1998, moving to Sandtoft in 2001. The Brussels Air Museum Foundation bought her in 2005 and she is currently being restored to static condition. I have used the brilliant Brian Withers/Roy Chaffin/Bluebear B-26J RAF MkII and modified the TruNorthSim USA/Africa texture adding the nose art, national markings and tail markings as used by Colonel John Stokes in San Marcos, TX. There is also engine exhaust flames and smoke and, when the main exit is open, the crew leave. The only snag is that Laden Maiden never carried the cheek guns as on the model and I can't remove them.

FSX Native Aero Commander AC560A(HC) by Milton Shupe, Gauges by Scott Thomas, Textures by André Folkers, and Sounds by Gary Jones. Pkg incl 1 model, custom panels and era gauges, custom sounds, custom Flight Model, and 3 liveries. Simple installation; lots of Aero Commander fun :-)

This package includes a heavily modified and updated version of the FS9 Alphasim PBY Catalina. The package includes expansion models based on the Cat to create not only the PBY-5A Catalina Firebombers, but also, the PBY-6A and PBY-5A and -6A Super Catalina variants. The Super Catalinas were special modified firefighting models used in the USA where the R1830s were swapped for more powerful R2600 engines from the B-25 as well as other aerodynamic and structural changes including a modified tail for the -5A variant Super Cat. The Super Cat had much better climb performance, top speed, and yielded an additional 500 more gallons of payload compared to a standard Catalina. Making them able to carry 1,500 US gallons of water or fire retardant versus a standard Catalina's 1,000 US gallons. The package also includes modifications such as working belly tank doors, addition of 4k textures, PBR, custom sounds, updated accurized flight dynamics, 6 total model variations, 6 repaints, and a completely remapped fuselage for easier repainting. Liveries included represent Airborne Fire Attack, Buffalo Airways, Flying Firemen, and SLAFCO. Original aircraft by Alphasim, updated and repainted by Nicholas Mitchell "Scorch00."

Another texture for the fantastic Milton Shupe team AC560, this time depicting VH-CAU circa 1982. This aircraft was bought new in 1959 by the Department of Civil Aviation and had an 11 year DCA career before being sold off in 1970. Had various operators since and this texture depicts it circa 1982. To this day I believe the aircraft is still on the register but am not sure if it still flies. Its always great to revisit Shupe team classics like the Aero Commanders and I hope you enjoy as I did. Textures only.

FSX/FS2004 Racing Motorcycle Aprilia RS-GT25. This is the actual italian Moto GP racer for 2025. The V-4 engine provides 238 PS. The airfiles let you enjoy the driving in modest speeds. But high speeds are a real challenge. I hope I can find an FDE tuner and someone who can create a real racer sound. The model can be parked without driver (using Wingfold). When driving you can control the roll angle with the joystick. FSX cameras provide beautyful views including close views. The model comes with 2D-panel and VC. FSDS 3.5 model by Erwin Welker

MSN 318 was built in 1956 as a Convair 440-35 and delivered to Continental Airlines as N90861 in February of that year. Continental sold 318 to the Ford Motor Company in 1959, who upgraded her to a CV580. She served with Fordair until being sold off to the IFL Group in 1994. 318 continues to fly for IFL as N171FL carrying freight instead of executives. Painted on to the Tom Gibson/Gregg Pepper/CalClassic Convair 580, this shows N300K in the first paint scheme she wore for Fords.

A319 ACJ Malaysia government jet. Model by Project Airbus. VC and other gauges are freeware only, per their respective author. I added a virtual cockpit and some extra gauges. There is a zip file with a copy of all the gauges, make sure you only have 1 copy of any gauge, either in the panel folder or in the main P3D Gauge folder. If anyone knows the address for the VC FMC, please add the FMC to the VC. Thanks to Abd Mu'iz for his upload of this model. Works in P3dV6, you will have to test in any other versions.

This pack contains the DHC-2 Beaver on floats and Tundra wheels. I have compiled alot if the FSX Beaver liveries in this one pack. The Beaver is by far one of my favourite planes! My parents used to fly the DHC-2 Turbo Beaver with Athabasca Airways Ltd. (Now Rise Air) and I hope to fly the DHC-2 Beaver soon! Enjoy!!

Another texture for the Shupe team Aero Commander 560 featuring VH-CAW. CAW was the sister ship to VH-CAU at the Department of Civil Aviation and is shown here in department colours circa 1964. After being sold off it had a number of owners but is believed to now be in a derelict state. Hope you enjoy this Australian content for these great flight sim classics as much as I enjoy making them. Textures only.
