    Andras Field is our 2010 experimental project. We have those projects to explore new ideas and to see how we can include

    customers better into our projects.

    Andras Field, the airport(s)

    Consists of a fictive airport located in Southern Bavaria, close to the Swiss and Austrian border. It has a big runway suitable for

    medium passenger jets, a active glider section, a large helicopter area and a complete seaplane base. So no matter what you

    like to fly in FSX, Andras Field can handle it. The airport itself is highly detailed and has some rather advanced

    features (we also see this as a experimental playground for our scenery developers). The immediate surroundings have been

    included as well and there is a lot to explore.

    Andras Airpark

    Is part of Andras Field and it consists of plots of land that can be bought (yes for real money) by simpilots. There is no need

    what so ever to do this, only when you like to have your own place, to show your house to all the other users it makes sense.

    You can either buy the plot and have us place one of the standard house/hangars or you can model your own place and send

    the files to us. In the next update (every week or 10 days) your place will be included for all to see. Sign with your name at the

    road side. Airparks are popular in the US because the are (fenced) communities of like minded people.

    All your neighbours are aircraft owners like you, many will use their aircraft for daily commute. If is raining you can get from

    your bed to your cockpit without getting wet as the hangar is part of the house, just like a garage. Again, though the airpark is

    part of the project and open to all customers, a plot for yourself there is not included in the product. It's optional.

    User interaction and user involvement

    Aerosoft only wants to provide the files and start the project. We hope the users will then start to take ownership of the

    project and start to manage it. There are many aspects we left unfinished at this moment. For example we have all the charts

    and maps, but we have not drawn the SIDs, STARs, taxi routes etc on them. That's something we feel the users can decide on

    amongst themselves. We will then update the maps. To coordinate this there will be a board of directors (consisting of Sales

    Director, Airport Director, Airpark Director, Glider Association representative). These functions are open at this moment and a

    few days after release we will ask users to find people for these functions. So Andras Field is a project fully driven by the users.

    Set in the heart of Northamptonshire, Sywell boasts one of the best General Aviation Airfields in the United Kingdom.

    With superb airfield facilities and a wonderful Art Deco styled Hotel, it is easy to see why many pilots consider this one

    of the finest fly-in destinations.

    Dominick wants to be a pilot and sees his participation in Warrington Middle School's new flight academy as a way to make his

    dream come true. "I'm into math and science," he said. "I'm going to take more advanced classes in those subjects because of

    what I am learning here."

    That's the attitude district, school and National Flight Academy officials are hoping to inspire with the career academy unveiled

    Tuesday. "I like being able to fly and calculate the amount of time to get from one place to another," said Daishon Johnson, 14.

    "You don't even notice you are doing math, and that encourages you more."The district has the only middle school flight academy

    in the United States, said Carl Leiterman, retired director of workforce education.

    The aviation classroom experience is operated in partnership with the National Flight Academy and includes three flight

    simulators. The curriculum will focus on science, technology, engineering and mathematics. "This is a way to engage students to

    perform at high levels of math and science that we could never get them to from a textbook worksheet or a teacher standing in

    front of a class," Superintendent Malcolm Thomas said. The flight academy is inspiring and fun, said Malcolm Rand, 12.

    "I'm not that good at math and science, but this is really going to help," he said. "I know I'm going to improve." Warrington Middle

    will have 132 students in the academy, Principal Sandra Rush-Riley said. "Once it gets out that we have this awesome product, we

    hope it will bring more students back to our school," she said.

    For the longest time I've toyed with the idea of renting out a simulator and recruiting volunteers in order to

    demonstrate the immense difficulty a non-pilot would have at the controls of a jet. Logistics and cost, unfortunately,

    would make this extremely difficult (the tab would likely be in the tens of thousands of dollars).

    Recently I learned that something like this has already been done. Several years ago, researchers in Denver gathered

    together 112 private pilots and put them to the test in an old Boeing 737-200 simulator. Of the 112, only 23 managed

    to get the plane from 35,000 feet to a reasonably intact landing -- in clear weather, with instruction from the ground.

    Approximately 50 percent were unable to manage anything at all. Mind you these were FAA certificated pilots.

    Anyway, I never heard back from Jon Hilkevich. That's the Chicago Tribune reporter who, in covering the story of the

    American Airlines flight attendant pressed into cockpit duty after one of the pilots fell ill, said of the Boeing 767: "In

    fact, the sophisticated plane, equipped with an array of computers, can fly and land by itself."

    I e-mailed Mr. Hilkevich a note of cordial disagreement. I'm not sure what to make of his silence. As both an air travel

    writer and a pilot with more than a thousand hours of 767 time under my belt, I felt that my protest would carry some

    weight and credibility. Alas it was met with silence. Perhaps big city reporters don't take kindly to lowly airline pilots

    explaining what it is they actually do for a living. I suppose I wouldn't mind so much if not the fact that Hilkevich is the

    paper's transportation writer, and in that capacity, with its presumed expertise, he ought to be more careful.

    (And as more of an aside than anything else: I was also a little struck by Hilkevich's implication that the Boeing 767 is

    some state-of- the-art aircraft. Yes, it's a perfectly capable aircraft with "an array of computers," but it was designed

    in the 1970s.)

    All right, as you can see it's proving hard for me to get this topic out of my system. Yeah, yeah, yeah, planes can't fly

    themselves; the realities of cockpit automation are widely exaggerated and misunderstood. I'm tired of complaining

    about it, and chances are you're tired of reading about it. But I think what makes it so hard for me to let go is just how

    pervasive these myths have become. Conventional wisdom holds firmly the idea that pilots are on hand merely as a

    backup, that we "monitor" rather than fly. The press and pundits repeat this garbage constantly, and millions of

    people now believe it. I keep hammering because it's important.

    I was on a talk show last fall. The host, Emily Rooney, who might

    be an esteemed journalist but who has no aviation background or

    expertise whatsoever, remarked matter-of-factly of airline pilots,"We don't need them." She believes this because that's what

    she's been told by too many of her peers and colleagues.

    This bad information trickles out to the public and becomes

    "fact." Only a few weeks ago I received a letter from a supposed

    frequent flier who asked, "What percentage of landings

    nowadays are still made manually?"

    Virtually all of them, is the answer. I see only a small handful of

    automatic landings -- "auto lands," in the vernacular -- every

    year, not counting those practiced in the simulator. Practiced?

    Yes, because in most respects automatic landings are more

    complicated, and more work-intensive, than those performed by

    hand. (For the record, auto lands have been around since the

    1960s. The first commercial jet so equipped was the British-built Hawker Siddeley Trident.)

    I put the blame on three pairs of shoulders:

    1. The echo chamber media, for not doing its homework.

    2. The academics, researchers and bureaucrats sought out by the media for aviation commentary. "Felix Feelgood, professor of

    aeronautics at Suchandsuch University, says that ..." These people are bright and their work might be important, but they often

    have little or no experience in the day-to-day operation of commercial aircraft. Yet they're granted a majority of the airtime.

    3. Pilots. We're often our own worst enemies, enamoured of gadgetry and, in our attempts to explain complicated procedures to

    the layperson, given to dumbing down. "Aw, shucks, this plane lands itself. " Perhaps for some pilots this is an attempt to be

    humble and self-effacing, but it's also self-destructive. It undercuts and devalues our profession. Why shouldn't we pay a regional

    pilot $18,000 a year if, after all, he's just sitting there "monitoring" things.

    The summer of 1940 marked Britains darkest hour as we awaited the Luftwaffe blitzkrieg. But, for a few desperate weeks Fighter

    Command held back the German air armada in what Churchill rightly described as their finest hour. Now the three most famous aircraft

    from the battle are once again airborne in the skies of Flight Simulator X. The Hurricane, Spitfire and Messerschmitt 109 have been

    brilliantly re-created to the highest levels of detail and the result is this fantastic package.

    Exterior models are built using the most accurate plans available to achieve highly accurate profiles and shapes. The rear fuselages are

    modelled like the real thing, with fabric over stringers rear and they are specula and bump mapped where appropriate.

    All aircraft come with high-fidelity flight models, accurate sound sets, intricate animations, firing gun effects and many more impressive

    features

    Cockpits are fully modelled to an astounding level of detail with every switch, knob and lever working and many with bespoke animation

    code

    Huge range of variants in different paint schemes a total of 40 different aircraft!

    Animations include canopies (with jettison feature), pilot figures, undercarriages and opening engine covers that reveal fully detailed

    engines. Comprehensive printed manual with flight tutorials for each aircraft.

    SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS: Flight Simulator X, Windows 7, Vista or XP

    We have replaced the default FSX hover and flight behaviour with our own

    ynamics, engine and systems management, complete with optional

    amage, repair and maintenance features.

    All this realism isn't easy to master for a novice pilot so we have introduced

    everal modes including auto-start and tutorial mode. The helicopter can

    peed through the start up and shut down sequences on its own or the

    ilot can follow on-screen prompts through the start up/shut downequences as the helicopter highlights each function on the 2D panels as

    hey are required.

    Aircraft systems will fail according to misuse. This may take several flights

    o occur as wear information is accrued and recorded. The pilot is able to

    lear persistent wear and damage using a virtual Service Workshop or

    witch off wear and damage completely.

    our aircraft can be equipped with low skids, high skids or floats and there is also a high skid utility version with a working cargo hook. Each

    ersion can be selected with or without doors too but remember that this will significantly affect the air craft's performance.

    he package includes 2 different fuel management systems. The accurate start-up procedures are not simple click sequences but dynamic

    ystems affected by temperature altitude and most importantly, pilot error!

    Experienced pilots will of course stay well clear of

    damaging the aircraft and will appreciate the more

    subtle attributes such as the blade slap and transmission

    whine associated with certain manoeuvres and flight

    regimes.

    If you are a student pilot and want to keep a record of

    how your ability is improving there is an option for wear

    and damage that persists for the life of each aircraft or

    until servicing and repairs are carried out; minor damage

    accrues over time but major damage will have dramatic

    effects.

    Training Modes include start-up/shut-down guidance with

    on-screen prompts or your co-pilot can complete the start

    for you while you plan your flight.

    Medicare Virtuel is a new virtual airline based

    n Montreal that concentrates on medevac

    irtual flights.

    =========================================

    Announcing a new FSX aerobatic team, the

    lack Phoenix. We fly the L-39 from Lotus

    imulation and are in need of virtual pilots

    who are professional and mature.

    he team was founded in 2010 by Maxime

    Phoenix" Plante, ex-right wing of the famous

    SX Skyblazers. He totalled 350 hours of real

    ying with multi-IFR licences and more them

    000 hours on flight sim since FS95. The team

    oal is to demonstrate that formation flying

    nd aerobatics in FSX are possible and team

    pirit is the key of this goal. The Black

    hoenix's aircraft is the well known L-39

    Albatross from Lotus Sim, a training plane who

    s perfect for the formation flying.

    =====================================

    he IRIS AudioworX 757-200 sound-pack for

    Our company, "Country of Tourism," has always been offering unique flights and space tours in planes like MiG fighters and Space Training

    t Star City and much more. But if you are not ready to pay this price we offer for all aviation fans our new and exciting service which should

    e affordable to almost everyone. We are describing the amazing

    modern fighter combat-flight trainer and simulator. This complex

    was developed by leading Russian specialists and, at last, is

    vailable for everyone in one of the entertainment centres.

    he Flight Simulator will allow you to feel as though you are in a

    eal combat fighter-jet experiencing the feeling of between 4G

    nd 5G overload during any aerobatic manoeuvres.

    eep in mind that price for such a "flight" is very reasonable and is

    ot even close to the real fighter jet flight.

    We, "Country of Tourism," have the Exclusive Rights to sell all over

    he world combat flight-training and simulator-flights. There is no

    ther company that can legally offer you the same service.

    efore the flight you will meet an actual fighter pilot and

    ear a pre-flight briefing, the basic theory of flight and basic

    erodynamics. Based on the real jet fighter frame, the pilot

    will show you basic flight controls and operations.

    After the briefing, you will put on the pressure or G-suit, receive final instructions and then the pilot will wish you good luck. During the

    ight, the customer negotiates with the traffic controller, receiving guidance (and hints) to get maximum joy out of the flight. You will

    xperience new, and, perhaps, exciting feelings during the 5G overloads in tight aerobatic manoeuvres. What about hitting some ground or

    ea targets? Want to see some real big explosions? Or are you more for aerobatic flights? Perhaps you would like to know if your rolls or

    oops are sufficiently professional and clean and you would like it proven by a real pilot. Or maybe you dreamed about an aircraft carrier

    anding? Once you reach the supersonic speeds of the jet, you will experience a new set of feelings you will feel like a "chosen one", part

    f an elite "super pilot" group, able to conduct aerial warfare flying dangerous combat aircraft.

    he simulator consists of two parts hardware and software. The hardware part is a real cockpit of a modern fighter jet adapted for

    imulator purposes and a little more comfortable for the pilot (like a moveable chair to allow the pilot into the cockpit). Cockpit is secured

    n hydraulic pistons which allow it to change roll angle up to 25 degrees and pitch angle for 28 degrees and it even creates vibrations of the

    ockpit when necessary according to the flight situation. In addition, the cockpit fully supports G-suits, which add the feelings of overloads

    nd stresses in tough turns.

    light missions can vary from simple flight or an aerobatics flight to all types of real combat mission situations such as anti-air, anti-ground,

    nti-sea missiles, with usage of all available fighter armament. Pre-flight briefing, basic flight principles and plane controls descriptions will

    e done by a genuine combat fighter-pilot.

    ach person will find his own level of excitement in this simulator. For one who has never thought about the skies, he will receive a basic

    verview of this magic, and how it is done in best possible way. Far better than showing "poor quality graphics on a small computer

    creen" to somebody who has no idea what flight simulator really is. The flight simulator's fun will preface the next step, which is into to the

    ockpit of the real jet fighter with real control stick and actual controls and instruments clusters instead of a flimsy joystick, keyboard and

    monitor.

    Hunting Percival P-84 Jet Provost T1Known universally as the 'JP', the Jet Provost, introduced all-jet training for pupil pilots for the first time in the

    RAF. The Jet Provost was a private venture adaptation of the Provost primary trainer. XD674, shown here, first

    flew on 26 June 1954 and was the first of nine T1 Jet Provosts built.

    Comparative trials between Piston and Jet Provost T1 equipped flights took place at No.2 Flying Training School

    (FTS), RAF Hullavington in August 1955. Results were such that all-jet pilot training was made standard in the

    RAF, the first Air Force to achieve this. An improved version, the T3, with up rated engine, shorter undercar-

    riage, wingtip tanks and other modifications first flew in June 1958 and 201 were built.

    In November 1961, the T4 was flown and a total of 185 were delivered. Later, to cope with training require-

    ments at higher altitudes, a pressurised version, the T5, was produced. The first aircraft flew on 28 February

    1967 and 110 of this variant were produced. One of these aircraft, XW323, was used by HRH Prince Charles

    during his pilot training and is displayed at RAF Museum London. Many well known aerobatic teams used these

    aircraft including the 'Red Pelicans' and the 'Lincolnshire Poachers'. Replacement of Jet Provosts by turboprop

    Tucanos began in 1988 and the programme was completed in 1993.
