Thanks John.

Pleased to report that Mins has made the AFCAD and flight plans for the 4 Peace Eyes of The Republic of Korea at Gimhae, using the Seongsu Kim scenery:



He has also repainted the aircraft in white (I was convinced they were grey from photographs).

Thanks Mins.

I admit that I thought that they were grey, albeit it a paler grey than the others, but I have nothing concrete to state one way or the other.

For those that are interested there is a really nice freeware scenery for Gimae (for FS9). It includes the military side of the airport.

South Korean Peace Eyes looks very light grey, no white. See the serial N735JS in the fuselage.

Here I found another one:

Notice the rectangle of the serial code behind the wing flaps.

And finally, against the white clouds:

Hope this help.

ROK E-737....In fact, a very light gray.
Almost close to the white.

Thanks to John Tenn, we now have the 4 Indian Navy P-8As at Raijali, India (the fourth is under the canopy):



Thanks to a great effort by all the contributors here, the whole project is rapidly coming to a conclusion. The only unit that's not catered for are the 5 P-8As of USN VP-5. I understood that they were currently deployed to Shaikh Isa AB, Bahrain, but I can't find any corroborative evidence of that on the net. I did find a press article covering a briefing for deployment in March 2016, but it didn't say where. However, if it was for the usual 6 months, they would be back at Jacksonville by now in any case. I'll add them into the Jacksonville traffic file I think.

VP-8 at Kadena might also be due to return this month, but since Brent has already set them up there, I'm going to leave them in place.

It's always going to be difficult to cater for deployments over time. The simplest solution probably, is to leave it to users to deploy units as and when they want.

Thanks Gary. Don't rush, I know there are other priorities.

VP-8 at Kadena might also be due to return this month, but since Brent has already set them up there, I'm going to leave them in place.

If you would tolerate a bit of a quick rework, since I made the VP-8 files for you they have indeed returned from deployment and been replaced by VP-10. It should be a relatively quick update to FP and parking codes.

VP-5 did indeed end it's deployment and has returned to Jacksonville. VP-45 is now at Sigonella though. Dang squadrons need to stay put for a while.

[John Young]

Musical chairs it is then. I've put VP-5 into Jacksonville. If you could swap VP-8 for VP10 at Kadena Brent that would be great. I'll then put VP-8 into Jacksonville.

I'll remove VP-45 from Jacksonville, but I need to work out how to accommodate them at Sigonella. From a quick forum search, I see that John Stinstrom made some really good looking scenery for the base (licz_js.zip at Avsim). With John's permission, is this the AFCAD I should amend?

[Stewart Pearson]

Apologies for the delay guys, I've had some issues with FSX and needed to do a re-install (more than once).

Anyway, the E-7 voicepacks are done and in John's ftp folder (E-7A.zip)

Have included a choice of 4 model designators as well as standard callsigns for overseas flights (Aussie, Korean AF and Turkish AF). Both 2004 and FSX versions are included.

If you need any changes or additions, just let me know.

[John Young]

Thanks Stewart.

I don't want to get too far ahead with new projects or I will forget how this one fits together. I'd like to just finish what I'm doing at the moment and then package up the Poseidons and Wedgetails with the sceneries that have been produced by then and get them out. That should be in a couple of week's time. Any remaining sceneries that can't be finished by then can be released separately of course, in whatever time is needed.

YPED is finished all bar the plumbing of the taxiways. Currently my man cave is having new windows so will be U/S until the weekend so JY will have the scenery by the go date.
