She had her first flight on June 7, 1978 from Everett and was then delivered to the Israeli EL AL Airline. Normally configured for 470 seats, she could also function as a pure freighter as she was equipped with a bow cargo door! What makes she so special to this day, however, is a flight that took place during Operation Solomon between May 23rd and 25th 1991. During this Operation, over 14.000 Ethiopian Jews were flown out of Addis Ababa on over 30 Israeli Air Force and EL AL transport aircraft, including three 747s! On one of these flights, a total of 1,088 passengers were flown to Tel Aviv with this 747, a world record that remains unbroken to this day! What was also unusual was that this flight was flown without an autopilot, as the automatic trim did not work properly before departure from Addis Ababa and last but not least, a child was born during the flight, breaking the record twice in one flight! After 31 Years in Service for EL AL and also for Cargo Air Lines, she was scrapped in July of 2009.

MSN 04211 was built in 1948 for the Secretary of State for Air as G-ALFM. Transferred to the Royal Air Force in March 1949, she became VP961. From June 1953 to October 1960, she was part of the Queens Flight, and designated as Prince Philip’s personal aircraft in which he logged 128 hours. Civilianized in 1985 as G-ALFM, she had four owners before becoming G-HBBC in 1996. Still on the UK register, currently she is in store “somewhere in the United Kingdom”. Textures only for Derek Palmer’s fabulous DH Dove model which you will need, this repaint shows G-ALFM as she was in 1985, when owned by three aviation enthusiasts.

The C-74 was planned during World War 2 as a much bigger successor to the C-54 Skymaster. An airliner version was also planned, and PanAm actually ordered it as the 'DC-7'. After the war it became obvious that a better design could be made, so only 14 C-74 Globemasters were built. With Jens kind permission: FSx native, MDL X materials and animations, 3D props &c. C-74 model and a late second block (cancelled) C-74A with nav radar, models with loads and no loads.

This is a modification for the default Cessna C182S (or any light single engine propeller aircraft of your choosing) in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 that adds a modern "Glass Panel" to the aircraft using default gauges (Mainly from the Learjet 45) and a fully capable autopilot including an autothrottle. It replaces the "six pack" with the Learjet's PFD, it also places a GPS gauge on the panel replacing the older navigation gauges on the original panel and places a full autopilot gauge on the panel too. It retains the gauges needed to monitor fuel and engine status and the original gauges and switches along the bottom of the panel. The panel bitmap is from the Cessna 182RG but in 1024 resolution with the landing gear gauge removed. (It was originally made by me for FS2004 converted FS2002 Cessna 182RG). I have kept the original Radiostack Window but removed the autopilot part of the stack at the bottom
