McCoy Ground Landing Effect v4.1B for both FSX & P3D v4.1. This package replaces six effects, Dirt, Touchdown, WheelWetSpray, WheelSnowSpray, WetEngineWash & SnowEngineWash. Five levels of intensity are offered for the first four effects, the last two EngineWash effects come in one, two & four engine adjustable configurations for both jet & propeller aircraft. Improvements include wind effect for secondary snow & rain mist, thrust EnginWash effects for dirt, softened dust & mist effects with lenghtened lifespans, reworked vortex effects, engine & emitter numbers are now the same, simplified instructions, corrected typos in v4.1 & six more pre-sets have been added. I'm now including pre-sets for the 737, 747, 777, 787, A380, Baron 58, DCH-6, F-16, F-35A, KingAir 350, L-049, Lear 45 and the Skyhawk 172. Single engine aircrafts should work well with out any adjustments. Wheel Effects have been re-positioned, Blast & some Wheel Effects have been adjusted for color, size, density & speed. These effects can be used in any combination so every aircraft can be easily dialed-in. By Vince McCoy, © Copyright 2017 all rights reserved. Previous versions 14632 downloads

This ZIP-file contains all Information and Examples for creating Standard Instrument Departures (SIDS) and Standard Arrival Routes (STARS) for Lockheed Martin Prepard3D begining from Version 1.2, Version 2 and Version 3. This Capability has been implemented with Version 1.2 but is hardly known by the Flight Simmer Community. This is just a very basic paper on that subject with simple samples. Learn how to create SIDs and STARs with Prepar3D On-board-Tools. Works also with 3rd Party-Addon-Sceneries, find out how! Includes real (!) working Samples for some Alaskan Airports: PACV, PAFA, PAFE, PAGS, PAHO, PAJN, PAKT, PAKW, PAPG, PASI, PAVD, PAWD, PAWG, PAYA. Includes now Approaches for PAVD and PAWD! Get to know that Airport Design Editor can also be used to Design STARs and SIDs! Compiled and prepared by Conrad F. Staeheli

This hotfix is only for the Project Opensky A321 if you installed my recent Airbus Megapack Modified Configs v20170921 for FSX/P3Dv4. This hotfix addresses the NAV/GPS button not working correctly on the dash.

This package contains ALL of my updated Aircraft and Panel config files for the A318, A319, A320CFM, A320IAE, and A321 included in the Airbus A320 Family Megapack by Project Airbus. I rewrote these files to fix various issues that my VA members and I found when flying them. The Morse code sound now works properly. A321 deicing is working again. I have also integrated a few addons into the Panel config as well, including the freeware Flightdeck SFX Panel, the payware EasyFMC, and the payware REX Advantage Radar. You must have legit versions of the payware installed to see those popup panels. No aircraft are included. This is just the config files. Installation instructions are in the README. Change notes are in the config files. This download replaces ALL previous config packages uploaded by me. FSX and P3Dv4 compatible. Enjoy!

GPWS is an option in my of my uploads but sometimes missed out of the file. This should be unzipped and the GPWS FOLDER placed in the MAIN SOUNDS folder in FSX or P3D

McCoy Water Landing Effect v4 for both FSX & P3D v4. These effects are individually assigned to a specific aircraft or boat overriding both FSX & P3D's default wake. Five effects of various sizes are included. Visually v4 looks a lot like v3.2 but some improvements have been made such as a compatibility fix of surface decals and airborne particles when subjected to wind, re-direction and velocity adjustments of the splash effect, a greatly simplified installation for P3D v4 and the first update for FSX since v2.0. A short video is included to demonstrate each size. Although intended for aircraft these effects can be used on boats 38 feet or smaller. Sound file included by Vince McCoy.

McCoy Helicopter Landing Effect v4 for both FSX & P3D v4. This package replaces the default rotor-wash effect for dirt and water, five sets of various sizes are included and can be used in any combination. These effects are individually assigned to a specific helicopter overriding both FSX & P3D's default effects. These effects will not detach and lift off the surface when the aircraft climes above a specific height. Some improvements over v3.4b include the removal of two emitters for better frame rates, adjustments that remove the wind effect appearing in waves, a simplified installation and all emitters have had their scale, velocity, density, offsets and colors adjusted for a more realistic appearance by Vince McCoy, 04/04/2017.

V1.5. The Vietnam-Desert Storm era of aircraft carriers is really lacking in the world of FSX/P3D. I have been working, using Google Sketchup, to fill this gap. This is the latest project fresh out of the Dry dock. The USS America (CV-66) is the 3rd of the Kitty Hawk class. It is a HEAVILY modified 3DWarehouse model originally by A.W. (https://3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/model.html?id=8aacd0f973114c1b53d9199581d0f4b4) I have tried many times over the last 2 years to find out how to contact the author, to no avail. I am using it under free use, and I will not be charging money for it. I also got permission to use the static planes from Gary (Author of the Midway CV-41 and the Oriskany.) with my previous uploads.

This is a program that can help you find the many vessels in Henrik Nielsens' wonderful "Global A.I. Ship Traffic". It covers the latest download, Version 2 and all updates up to July 2017.. It displays the routes on Google Earth, the route number and a list of the ships that can be found on that route. There is a separate file containing their departure and arrival times on each of the routes, with instructions on how you can locate them. There is also a full list of the names and types of all the ships that are in the program. For best results I recommend using my program with the "Little Navmap" program. Little Navmap displays all the AI ships and more in an approximate forty mile area around your aircraft. It is a navigation program all by its self. See "Installation" doc for details where to find it. This download was created by Carl Vokes.
