Bell-Boeing
V-22 OspreyThis V- TOL
tilt-rotor troop transporter has been
modeled for FS2004 in its US Marines guise,
the MV-22B. Alphasim advises "The rear
ramp and crew entry door open to reveal
a detailed interior, a detailed virtual
cockpit is included with authentic stick
and rotor tilt controls and co-pilot figure.
A viewpoint back into the fully detailed
rear cabin is available and a custom turboprop
soundset is also included."Check it out >> here
Micro Flight 5
Micro Flight
advises us that the updated version of
this "light" flight simulator program
now has an excellent flight model and
great cockpits with VFR and IFR instruments.
New flight models were added with new
support for wind layers, night objects,
accurate DTM and scenery objects. All
of this makes Micro Flight a most valuable
general purpose flight simulator.More info >> here
FS
Global 2005 Editor
With this program
you can conveniently activate or deactivate
layers in your FS2004 scenery library
(scenery.cfg or newscenery.cfg) from outside
FS2004. The big advantage of this program
is that it is intelligent and will edit
correctly, even if after a change of scenery
library you haven't restarted your FS
yet.Get it >> here

TweakAircraftTweakFS has today released the fourth member of the TweakFS family, a utility called TweakAircraft. As the name suggests this program focuses on the Aircraft.Cfg file and its up to 500+ variables. It allows you to quickly and easily adjust hundreds of settings for each aircraft ranging from Titles and Descriptions right through to flight control effectiveness, pitch and roll stability, engine data, autopilot and special effects to name just a few.Jump >> here

TweakFS Utility collection
TweakFS "Journey to the Center of the Earth" ChallengeLast time we had a serious IFR challenge, a non-precision approach with a custom-recorded ATC adventure into a busy LA airport. This time we thought we'd depart from serious flying and have a little fun, taking advantage of an anomaly in the FS2004 default terrain mesh.
TweakFS is awarding a free copy of the TweakFS Utility Collection CD-ROM to whoever can fly the deepest into a hole created by a spike that is found in the FS2004 default mesh in Guyana, South America. Believe it or not but it takes a bit of concentration to fly straight down and not hit the sides of the abyss. An altitude of over (or under!) negative 100,000 has been previously achieved!

Your entire landscape will be transformed. The new FScene2004 textures are simply spectacular.

JapanWings.comJapanWings.com strives to be a point of meeting between the international and the Japanese Microsoft Flight Simulator communities and to help flight simmers to improve (with scenery lists and reviews and with original freeware add-ons), their simulated Japan Environment that can be really interesting, due to the high activity compared to a relatively small size, and the interesting and very active contact between civilian and military aviations that in many cases share airports and facilities.Visit >> here
