Projekt Transall has made a magnificent model of thewith many liveries and extras. The model is for FS9, and sadly it has been made absolutely clear that the model will not be remade for FSX.

The good news is that it can be tweaked to work perfectly with FSX SP2 Acceleration in DirectX9 mode. The problem that needs to be addressed is a see-through hole around the squadron emblem. I have fixed this with a texture which you can download here (link to be provided).The C-160 Transall has a 28.50 € price tag. But every cent is given to the charitable society 'Gemeinsam helfen e.V.'

To support ill and disabled children. So far more than 50.000 € could be donated. Every customer receives a very good printed manual and the aircraft model on CD. Liveries and AI models can be downloaded from the support forum.- Update!!The FSX version of the C-160 Transall that was officially announced has now been cancelled - such a shame. The Mid-Atlantic-Air-Museum in Reading, Pennsylvania, is host to a great and beautiful collection of military and civil aircraft from the Golden Age to early 1960.

Known for its ambitious projects, they currently restore one of the four remainingto flyable state.To financially support these activities MAAM has released three extraordinary fine flight simulator models: the, theand the. The details of the simulations are impressive, e.g. Oil dripping engines. All models are for FS9, but the B-25 and the C-47 can be tweaked to work perfectly with FSX SP2 Acceleration in DirectX9 mode. In the MAAM support forum you will find a description how to do that.Hopefully MAAM will re-release their work for FSX in the future. The models are in the range of $30, and every penny goes into the museum. I like to mention Air-to-Air Simulations, formerly known as Shockwave Productions, because of their unique product portfolio.

Their WW-II aircraft are extremely beautiful and, according to the forum feedback, show very accurate flight behaviour. I can not comment on that, but fact is the models are fun to fly.Thepackage contains: Boeing B-17, Boeing B-29, Consolidated B-24, Consolidated PB4Y-2, Avro Lancaster, Arado Ar-234, Focke-Wulf Ta-183 and Heinkel He-162. It sells for $20 plus shipping. Thepackage consists of: North American P-51, Supermarine Spitfire, Republic P-47D, Messerschmitt Bf-109 and Mitsubishi A6M5.

This package has a $30 price tag. Many aircraft are available as, e.g. The Heinkel He-219 or the Curtiss P-40. These separate downloads are between $25 and $33 each.Like everybody else A2A has shifted their focus to FSX.

Most of their older models can be tweaked to work flawlessly in FSX SP2 Acceleration in DirectX9 mode. But in addition A2A will lay hands on some of their older products like the WW-II Fighter Package and rework them as native FSX models. This is what I call excellent customer care.April 2010: The Accusim B-17 is just unbelievable. For once the saying is not exaggerated - this aircraft lifts your flight simulator experience to a new border. Airliners.Net is an aviation website with over a million aircraft photographs.

Supported by a good database engine, you can easily search for specific tags like aircraft type, airline, country and more. All photos are commented and usually of high quality.Access to the photos can be gained with a free account. If you want to participate in the forum of the Airliners.Net community, you need at least a Premium Membership, which means a one-time payment of $25. The First Class Membership cost is $5 per month. The benefits are no advertising, photos without watermarks, webspace and access to the news service. Helicopters in Microsoft's Flight Simulator are somehow special. There is no separate flight concept and model for choppers.

They are treated like fixed wing aircraft. You need a bag of tricks to at least come close to realistic helicopter AI. That we have this knowledge today we owe to Holger Sandmann, who discovered how to treat helicopters and floatplanes the right way.There is one special place to go if you are interested in helicopters. Jordan Moore's Hovercontrol not only hosts his stunning models, but many others as well. Hovercontrol hosts a friendly and competent forum. If you want to master helicopter flight in the flight simulator, there is no better place to go. While military traffic is most obviously missing in the FlightSim skies, civil traffic can be improved as well.

Several groups have gained a high reputation of making excellent freeware AI. While one opts for most detailed aircraft with the least possible frame impact, the other aims at most realistic real world flight plans.If you only know Microsoft's default AI, have a look at the work of the groups mentioned above.

You are in for a surprise. If you feel uncomfortable with the installation of these packages, but you still want to improve your artificial traffic, check out the commercial alternativesand.

Two sites serve the FlightSim Community with all aspects. They offer uncountable free flightsim downloads - aircraft, repaints, scenery and tools - for every version since FS98. They review new free and commercial products.

They host tutorials and forums where you find help and new ideas. They offer information.

They are institutions.AVSim and FlightSim.Com are the answer for every flightsim novice who has played two weeks with his original Microsoft Flight Simulator setup and then asks. While an increasing number of great western military AI aircraft have become available over the last years, there was practically no representation of their Russian counterparts. This has changed for good, thanks to the great contribution of Sergey Bunevich (sib2217), who has released (among many others) stunning models from Antonov (An-8, An-12), Mikoyan (MiG-25, MiG-29), Sukhoi (Su-27) and Tupolev (Tu-22, Tu-22M). I know more is coming, and I very much look forward to his next releases.He has now a dedicated website where he presents his work. Don't shy away from the fact that web site is in Russian - you will find your way around.At this point I like to say thank you towho now offer an English language interface to their web site.

Check out their site, and find yourself the gorgeous Su-24 of Sergey Ivanov (scorpio9999) and many other great downloads. Frank Safranek runs a Flight Simulator site dedicated to the Dassault Mirage aircraft. You will find a comprehensive overview about flyable and AI models, panels, sounds and sceneries.

Spitfire Aircraft

While mostly centered around the Mirage you will find many bits and pieces about other Dassault aircraft like the Mystere, the Etendard and the Rafale. A foto gallery, real aviation information and a review section - all centering around these great French aircraft - complete the site offering.This site is a must to visit if you are even faintly interested in French military aircraft. With Super Traffic Board Simon Jones has created a most valuable tool for those who work with AI traffic.

Personally I use this program when I am working on flight plans. You can easily view and follow AI aircraft, both on ground and in the air. You see what phase each aircraft is curently in (boarding, taxi, deprted etc.). Aircraft can be forced to depart now or can be deleted. All this presented in a stylish flight information like interface. Super Traffic Board come with a comprehensive user guide.A tool highly recommended for those who expect control over AI traffic instead of just watching it.
