This repaint pack is for Milton Shupe's FSX/P3D v4+ converted CDF (Cal Fire) S-2T (not the S-2T Firecat). This repaint pack represents the entire current fleet of S-2Ts in service with Cal Fire. 23 aircraft and another fictional repaint I included of T-100. The Marsh version is not to be confused with the Firecats found in Canada and elsewhere in the world that are powered by the infamous Pratt-Whitney PT-6 turboprops. The Marsh version is powered by the more powerful Garrett TPE331-14GR turboprop and has aerodynamic modifications that easily differentiate the two models. The S-2F3AT or S-2T for short boasts greater performance than Cal Fire's radial powered S-2As. The S-2T can carry 1,200 gallons of fire retardant over the S-2As 800 gallons. In the early 2000s Cal Fire replaced all of it's radial powered S-2As with the S-2F3ATs. California has 23 Turbo Trackers strategically stationed throughout the state to allow for most of the state to have initial attack missions flown on fires in 30 minutes or less. Infamous, "South Ops" in Southern California boasts 2 of the busiest air tanker bases in the country (if not the world) Ramona and Hemet-Ryan, where Cal Fire has S-2Ts actively stationed nearly 365 days a year.
Repaints were constructed in P3D v4.5, and should work into earlier versions of P3D and FSX, but may require file modification.
Erickson Aero MD-87 Air Tanker Fleet Repaint Pack.zip
This repaint pack is for the freeware converted SGA DC-9, modified by Chris Evans to work in both FSX and P3D v4+. This repaint pack represents Erickson Aero's current (2019) fleet of MD-87 air tankers. The MD-87 has been marked as a controversial air tanker as it has been fraught with issues since it's introduction into it's new life as an air tanker. Issues with retardant ingestion, engine issues, and multiple drop system redesigns plagued the platform early on. Due to these early issues, the "Mad Dog," has been earmarked as a dangerous air tanker to fly. One other fact that makes the MD-87 stand out in the air tanker industry is the fact that the FAA has required the jets to drop with their landing gear extended to prevent aircraft instability at it's low drop speeds. Which no other aircraft does. Regardless of the jet's reputation early on, Erickson has successfully introduced the MD-87 to the industry with 7 MD-87s soon to be active. The pack represents T-101, 102 103, 104, 105, 106, and 107. Repaints were constructed in P3D v4.5, FSX compatibility is likely, but may need file modification. I am unsure, as I cannot test this.
This is a little "what if" repaint that I put together because I love flying this aircraft so much. It's based on a PZL C-145A Skytruck registered as 12-0337, operated by the US Air Force Special Operations Command.
This incredible addition to CFS3 was begun by Andrey Korchinskiy in December of 2013 and was originally intended to become part of WOFF so that it could access DX9 functionality making it compatible with the SweetFX shader injector. Since then it has grown to be so much more that it's easy to forget that it still provides the bridge to using SweetFX in CFS3. This update fixes some bugs that were present in the October 2019 release.
December 2019 Changes:
fixed possible Win7 crash;
water animation is smooth (as it was in 2018 version);
Numpad0Switch=1 can be used again (if you really need it);
dll writes a dump file if the game crashes.
fixed incorrect shutdown bug

Support for Pilot controlled landing lights
Support for clickable cockpits

This is a repaint for Stephan Scholz's CFS2 Gotha G.IV, the serial 602/16, with a green snake on the fuselage.
This plane was flown by Walter Aschoff, Erwin Kollberg and Sgt. Mayer from May to September 1917, and made several raids over London during the "first blitz." She was finally shot down in Holland when flown by another crew in September, 1917.
Repaint for Ants Tiger Moth Pro of GAOIL or XL716. This aircraft flew at Compton Abbas with the RN XL716 livery. XL716 was destroyed in an accident in 2011.
This is a package of 14 Dutch airfields and seaplane bases as they appeared at the time of the German invasion in May 1940.
Cees Donker has kindly given permission for conversion of his very authentic scenery for CFS2 use.
Cees originally constructed Bergen, Buiksloot, De Mok, De Vlijt, Ockenburg, Ruygenhoek, Schellingwoude, Valkenburg (Katwijk), Waalhaven, and Ypenburg for FS2004. Schiphol was made for FSX, and De Kooy for CFS2.
Kevin Driver has adapted these airfields for CFS2 with modified or new background bitmaps and destructible GSL objects for
the majority of them. In addition, De Zilk, Haamstede and Middenmeer have been built. De Mok, De Vlijt and Schellingwoude
are non-GSL bases. The non-GSL Koolhoven factory at Waalhaven is also included.
This project could not have been completed without the help of Robert Sprackland (“Robert John”) and Allen Downey (“Allen”).
They are responsible for nearly all of the GSL objects found in Cees Donker’s Airfield Buildings Library being made destructible.
These airfields are designed to compliment Joachim (“Achim”) Schmidt’s Dutch airfields and Andrew (“Rami”) Talbot’s urban and
ports GSL scenery for the Netherlands.
This is a series of two missions for the JMK_Hiryu and the JMK_Nelson, formerly found on Usio's defunct website, and preserved here at SOH in Usio's legacy section.
Thanks to Bwf for maintaining these files for the SOH community.
Air war Over Malaya and the East Indies Part 2.zip
This package was updated on 1 December, 2019 at the author's request to include additional files to correct mission errors.
Welcome to the second part of my Malaya/East Indies campaign series. This campaign looks at the conflict from the view of a British Blenheim bomber pilot.
It takes you through the whole conflict, from the Japanese landings in Malaya, through the fall of Singapore, the defense of Sumatra up to the final days on Java, when the Dutch East Indies finally fell to the Japanese.

Merlin2 Bristol Beaufort Mk1-des revised by UncleTgt
This is a revision of the Bristol Beaufort model series made by Merlin2 for CFS 2. This pack depicts the mk1-des. I used MDLmat & DosMDLCv2 to give the model some shine, better coloured aircrew lifevests, plus improve the glass transparency & colour, prop disks etc.
The 2D panel bitmap has been made WIN7+ safe, & the definition of the VC instruments has been improved.
The. dp file has been given historically accurate payload options, & the damage effects, hitpoints & AI gun performance tweaked to give a better combat experience. As the airfile was developed by Jerry Beckwith, the only thing I adjusted was to lower the elevator authority somewhat, to try to make it less fighter-like when engaged. I changed the aircraft family from 4 to 5 (more a G4M2 Betty than a TBF Avenger), but this has not been tested extensively in missions.
The sounds are aliased to the C47 Dakota.
The texture offered is: Beaufort MkI N6519 -Y of 39 squadron Bu Amud Egypt, March 1942.
Damaged beyond repair after a heavy landing at Bu Amud 22 March 1942.
