Marine Corps CH-53 Sea Stallions
Does anyone know where I can find the flight plans for the USMC Marine Corps CH-53 Sea Stallions? I am referring to the separate ones. The separate squadrons. Kinda like what has been done with some of the USMC C-130 units.

Re: Marine Corps CH-53 Sea Stallions
I did a quick check and Mark didn't do flight plans with his Sqns. It seems like nobody else ever released an archive of plans only.
It seems that the best chance is that somebody who created plans for themselves is kind enough to zip them up and make them available.

I started some after the 53E conversion came out since the USN MH-53s had some FPs. Right now initial working MCAS New River, and looked at doing MCAS Miramar but got busy. I'm on P3Dv5, so you may need to adjust for FSX.

FSX flight plans work in all versions of P3D, and vice versa.
But - if you have FS9, you'll need to recompile them with AIFP.

Re: Marine Corps CH-53 Sea Stallions
Yes, didn't see what sim version you were using, if needed I can break these down to .txt files if you are familiar with compiling flightplans. Will look over NKX unless I get called into work, I generally just use previously released plans for the area and make adjustments.

I'm flying FSX. Once I get a new computer, I then will move over to either P3D or MSFS.

Do you think you might be able to make flight plans for the other USMC CH-53 Sea Stallions?

Re: Marine Corps CH-53 Sea Stallions
Maybe also for the MH-53Es and the new CH-53Ks.

Re: Marine Corps CH-53 Sea Stallions
Speaking of these models... I am currently in the process of doing some final testing to updated versions; along with an AI converted version of the RK CH-46s...
The new 53s will feature:
1. Updated animations for the doors and ramps... The ramps will remain partially open on taxi and takeoff and close after reaching about 700 ft agl; and will be closed when the aircraft is parked... The forward doors will be open with beacon off nav on and shut otherwise...
2. Lift animation for takeoff
3. Additional models that I found which feature only two engines and six bladed rotors... Also the rotor blade hub now pitches and tilts with "stick movement"...
The CH-46s (like the 53s) will be single LOD models but will have appropriate animations and vis conds for AI models (lift, ramp, crew vis, ect...) Hopefully someone who does models from scratch will eventually come along and do a purely AI, two-LOD, single texture CH-46 someday but my hope is these will patch the void for now...

Re: Marine Corps CH-53 Sea Stallions
Thanks! Sent the new 53s to Martin for his review already... These are being tested now...
