Simon Smeiman’s Free Ultimate Biplane

Simon Smeiman, author of our Cubs and Supercubs, has released a little gem in the form of an Ultimate 10-300 Aerobatic Biplane for FSX SP2. Simon writes in the assoicated Readme file"…. This freeware model of the Ultimate is my gift to my fellow Simmers especially those who bought my commercial models marketed by Francois Dumas of www.fsaddon.eu.
The model is also dedicated to Gordon Price, the creator of the real world Ultimate.
Gordon was so kind to let me use the color scheme of his aircraft and to display his name as the pilot on the Ultimate Bluehawk model.
If you like to know more about Gordon and the Ultimate Bipe please visit http://moleski.net/ultbipe
Martin X. Moleski, SJ (Marty) is the owner of the abovementioned web site. He was so kind to bring me in contact with Gordon, He also allowed me to use the info from his web site to create the model for FSX. Thanks Marty!….".

FenceBuilder Pro out now !
Our latest design product is now available on simMarket and will be available on our own site soon (via the Flight1 wrapper software) .
Build a fence, a wall, a hedge… anything ! Yoor segmented objects are BUILT by the compiler, not just ‘placed’ like ordinary objects (that’s possible too, by the way), and will follow the actual terrain profile !
Get it here already at simMarket and build your own enhancements to both FS2004 AND FSX !
FenceBuilder Pro Coming This Weekend!
Yup, we’ve finished it and FenceBuilder Pro will be available on simMarket sometime tomorrow, and on our own website on Saturday!
Meanwhile, for those of you curious to see what it can do, check out the Quick Start Guide that we’ve made available here already!
FenceBuilder Pro will let you place fences, walls, lamp posts and basically anything that can be placed in a repetitive line. It takes objects and effects for that purpose too, if you like, as well as specific segments of fencing or walls!
Now you can build a fence around your property or favorite airstrip, build a wall around your house, or lay a pipeline all through Alaska ! Your fantasy (and availability of segments, objects and effects) is the limit!
Out soon! FenceBuilder Pro
Afraid that trespassers will enter your private little airfield? Or that your virtual cows will seek greener virtual pastures? Or maybe you just want to make the entrance to your airpark look a little friendlier? So you need walls, fences, barbed wire even, or just a low row of flowers!
Now FSAddon’s FenceBuilder Pro is almost ready to be released and soon you can make all this and much, much more, in both FS2004 and FSX.
Heck, you can even build a copy of the Chinese wall if you want to or any other ‘row-like’ type of object for that matter. And it really ‘builds’ them. It is not an object placer as so many others. Although, to be brutally honest, it does THAT too! AND it helps you place effect files. Oh yes, and it places SOUNDS as well!
Gosh! And all that for the same price? Yup, you got that right!

Tongass Fjords X by Holger Sandmann and Bill Womack – NEWCLICK HERE FOR THE PRODUCT PAGE Tongass Fjords X is the completely rebuilt version for FSX of our previous Tongass Fjords success title. It again is a major cooperation between Holger Sandmann and Bill Womack, including the already legendary ‘Sandmann Landscape’ and also some true-to-life regional airports such as Sitka and Petersburg, the town of Petersburg and quite a few other settlements, airports, seaplane bases and harbors. As you will learn there is a plethora of things to see, discover, experience and visit !!! Tongass Fjords X is supported by the same team that brought you Misty Fjords and Tongass Fjords for FS2004, and it covers almost the same area as the previous Tongass Fjords. It is fully compatible with Ultimate Terrain right from the start, and also with most other FSX titles for the region that have been released up till now. With Tongass Fjords X we bring you a whole new FS world, 80,000 square kilometers of it !!! Nope, we’re not exaggerating one little bit, as you will soon see after installing it. Tongass Fjords X really is what FSAddon.com Publishing is all about….. enhancing your immersion in the wonderful world of Flight Simulation. Tongass Fjords X will give you the feeling of ‘being there’ more than ANY other product currently on the market. Sure, sure, marketing speak, right!? We are convinced that you will agree with us after installing Tongass Fjords X and all its additional scenery and objects. All of the thousands of previous owners of Misty Fjords and Tongass Fjords will confirm and support this. This is one of the rare FS add-ons that already had an active ‘following’ before even being published !! ATTENTION! Tongass Fjords X is MORE than 1 Gb in size and our own servers are not very fast. We recommend to use a download manager in order to be able to resume download in case of trouble. |

LHA-5 Helicopter Carrier by AJ WeberWe have called it LHA-5, but in fact you get FIVE Helicopter Carriers of the US Navy Tarwa Class in this package AND an amphibious tank, the AAV-7A1 that you can drive on land and in the water!!! AJ Weber is one of our new authors and has been learning along the way building this first project in our FSX Naval Series! The ships is are wonderful renditions of their class, and a great place to practice your helicopter landings, both by day AND by night. There is not a whole lot of space on the small deck! The ship has working radars, deck lighting for the helicopter operations, and an opening well deck door to allow access to the landing craft dock inside! The deck landing lights and well deck doors are animated, and are basically triggered by the user aircraft in some way. The well deck doors are will open when the user aircraft NAV2 radio is set to 108.00, and will close if any other frequency is chosen. All other animations such as radars are ongoing and not triggered by anything. But that’s not all….. AJ also has included a working model of the AAV-7, the current amphibious tracked vehicle used by the US Marines for beaching operations. AJ has done a wonderful job in building this tank, with real moving tracks, opening door and hatch, even a firing canon with visible effects and bulging black diesel smoke coming from the exhaust when opening up the throttle (thanks to the kind and much appreciated help of Rob Barendrecht). |

T-50 Bobcat by Simon SmeimanThis old twin engined aircraft was flying back in 1939 and has now been faithfully reproduced to fly in FSX by Simon Smeiman. This model was developed with FSX compatible tools, tested and found to be working well with Windows XP and Vista with DX10. The developing of the model was based as far as possible on the data and specifications of the real world Cessna T-50 Bobcat. However, we do not claim that the flying characteristics of the model resemble that of the real world aircraft. This package consists of the following aircraft configurations:

FS9 Grenoble Isère AirportWe haven’t forgotten our still large contingent of FS9 customers and Grenoble Isère Airport by Antonio Totingue is a wonderful addition to FS2004 for those flying in France. Even more so for users of the FranceVFR FlightAlpesNord package ! Antonio Totingue has made Grenoble Airport fit into the FranceVFR scenery and adapted a few textures for it as well. You can use it without too, of course. Grenoble comes with all the buildings painfully copied from the real ones, with airport traffic, lots of animations, changes according to season, opening hangar doors, and much more. Most of all it provides a very realistic ‘feel’ of a typical French regional airport and allows for great flights in the area, where other such airports (like Chambery and Annecy) can be found too. |

FSX Mission EditorThe new ‘Missions’ that Microsoft introduced with their latest itteration of the Flight Simulator franchise, Flight Simulator X, drew a lot of excitement. Not only would the missions give something ‘to do’ and possibly attract a whole new breed of flightsimmers. It would also be something ‘to do’ in the more creative sene; MAKING MISSIONS YOURSELF and adding to the sim experience that way. Alas…. the implementation was less than stellar in the area of design and building. With Jim Keir’s Mission Editor for FSX this is now changing. Click HERE for details

Plum Island is Bill Womack’s latest title for Flight Simulator, specifically made for FSX. This time Bill has made extensive use of aerial photos to add a true-to-life atmosphere to the landscape. On it he has meticulously placed autogen objects, so that this ‘photo-title’ is NOT one of the ’standard’ boring flat-looking wallpapers that so often result from using photos.
Plum Island’s small airfield (2B2) is situated near Newburyport, some 27 miles north of Boston along the Atlantic coast. The FSX version of it conveys the atmosphere of a small local field, often slumbering in the summer heat or laying deserted in the wintery cold. According to the Airnav pages aircraft operations average some 54 per week, so clearly not a busy airport, but instead the ideal companion for your VFR-loving GA aircraft!
He has also made not only the Summer textures, as again is usual for products like these, but rather has provided Winter textures as well, and night textures.
The BEST part of it all however is how he has been able to BLEND the phototexture with the default MS textures. You will have a hard time figuring our where Plum Island ends and default FS textures begin !
But that’s not all… Bill has added the very small airfield 2B2, aka Plum Island, in stunning detail, rendering it truly ‘as real as it gets’. Finding the field from the air is not easy, but once you do and land there, you can taxi up to the small FBO or fuel station, and fill your plane up.
You can ‘fill yourself up’ on one of the picknick tables in the shade of some trees, and chat with the airfield manager or one of the ‘resident’ pilots.
Here’s a quote from an e-mail to Bill Womack from one of our beta testers and residents of the area :
"……. Bill, the FBO at Plum Island, Steve Noyes, said not to make things look so real. After all, you didn’t have to show the rust on his tractors. The Director Don said you showed too much cracks in the runway. I told him they were real. He said, "I know, but…". You won over 3 converts to Flight Simulator. George Kelly, the Manager at 2B2, who bummed a computer from me. Mike Donahue a pilot from Plum Island airport and I think Victor Tine, the reporter that called you. He took to FSX like a baby after candy.
As far as I’m concerned, you’ve outdone Emma Field in realism. Thank you buddy. The next time you’re in Newburyport, I owe you a lobster dinner at Michael’s Harborside….".

Below some more screenshots, many of them made by our friend and ‘resident screenshooter’ Nick Churchill.

And here some COMPARISON SHOTS…. default MS versus Bill Womack






When you arrive late in the day and the sun starts to drop behind the horizon, the atmosphere is even more life-like than during day time….. notice the late sun rays glistening on the myriad of little waterways snaking through the marshes and wetlands in the estuary….




Surprise surprise !! You may find some ’stuff’ on the runway that you could do without…. like a FENCE !!!
