MSFS DHC2 Beaver Greenranger Aviation
Repaint of the de Havilland DHC2 in colours of Greenranger Aviation Services.
Recently Greenranger Aviation removed all the paint off their Beaver during scheduled deep maintenance.  It looked so good, they decided to present it in their classic polished metal livery recently introduced on their DC3, which has been a big hit with their customers.
·  8k textures.
·  Custom passenger cabin colours.
·  Custom cockpit cabin colours.
·  Polished metal fuselage and classic livery style.
·  Float, wheel and bush versions included.
      -  Just one folder installs all 3 versions.
      -  Textures shared across 3 versions.

Speck-Fehraltorf Freeware by NFM
 
This package changes the default scenery to make the airfield look more realistic. It contains more than 15 objects made especially for this airfield. Most of them have PBR textures to look even better. It is my first scenery for MSFS and my first time using blender. Some of the buildings look quite ugly. But it is still better than the automatically generated scenery by MSFS.
 
Main changes:
-added c-office & hangar west
-added hangar east
-added fuel station
-added restaurant
-added visitors' terrace
-added runway markings (flags & runway corners)
-deleted wrong windsock & added three correct windsocks
-deleted wrong buildings & vegetation 
-added parked cars
-added more accurate asphalt
-added gliders & glider trailers
-added s-office
 
So far I haven't figured out how to make the runway out of grass or how to delete the gas station in front of hangar east. If I find out, I will improve it.
 
Have fun!

North Sea, Norwegian Ocean and Irish Sea oil/gas offshore installations. 
Placement of all Norwegian, Danish, Dutch, German, Irish, Russian, Polish and British oilrigs in the North Sea/Norwegian Ocean/Irish Sea/Baltic Sea/Celtic Sea. Version 2.2 pinpoints about 500 rigs, FPOS and loading bouys in the Norwegian Ocean, the North Sea,the west coast of United Kingdom and the Baltic Sea.  I do not have accurate 3D models of the platforms, so the default MS Flightsim oilrig and oil tanker is used in all the locations. FPOS are made by merging the default platform and the default tanker. I have also added some oil tankers in the location of some of the loading buoys. The placement should be pretty accurate - source of positions are pulled from the Norwegian map autority's (Kartverket) electronic nautical charts (Norgeskart nautical charts),from Avinor IPPC service, from EMODmet and from a KML file found on the internet....   I'm pretty certain that all of the installations are covered - if you miss some, please let me know. There have been a lot of decommissioning and removal/clean up in the last years. I've tried to place only the installations still out there, but the cleanup is ongoing, so there will be some errors. Please let me know if you find some..... 🙂

Guthrie–Edmond Regional Airport
 
Guthrie–Edmond Regional (KGOK) is a public use airport in Logan County, Oklahoma. It's located about 2nm south of Guthrie and about 7nm north of Edmond. The airport has been operated by both cities since 2005. It was formerly known as Guthrie Municipal Airport before then.
 
2.0 update note - Be Sure to entirely remove the old mod if your using it, Do Not just overwrite with this new one
 
Some simple corrections and additions to perk up my local FOB.
This is not a full custom addon, I added missing buildings and added some static objects using all default game assets.
The fixes including moving the Beacon Tower out of a taxiway and adding back the segminted circle and Windsock that was missing. Additionally i added about 30 more static scenery objects to liven up the airport.
I hope to fix the 4 taxiway lights that are in the taxiway, but atm the sdk doesnt seem to allow this function correctly. They seem to be tied directly to the taxiways (not separated as the Delete functions would suggest), even rebuilding the taxiways causes them to automatically be placed similarly in the wrong locations.

Go-Around and missed approach procedures in the Citation Longitude are demonstrated in Microsoft Flight Simulator.
 
The decision to do a go-around or a missed approach can vary based on many different factors. Procedures are the same regardless of the factor for doing a go-around or missed approach.
 
Learn what 6 important tasks happen when the TOGA button is pressed. One important step in doing a go-around after the application of max power, is pressing the Takeoff and Go-Around or TO/GA button. Pressing the TOGA button in the Longitude accomplishes 6 tasks, one of which is adjusting the flight director to a climb attitude, but one very important and sometimes frustrating event happens that almost everyone has probably missed at some point and wondered "What is going on with the FMS?"
 
After reading and following the missed approach procedure, checklist guidance and questions regarding the hold and what to do while in the hold are discussed.
 
This is part 4 of the Longitude series. To start at part 1 in the playlist, go here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlJbYfeBbvg

Here is Bordeaux airport created by Fsfan50 and BeviJo33.
 
Bordeaux-Mérignac airport is a French international airport located in the town of Mérignac, 12 km west of Bordeaux in the Gironde department, in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region.
 
The airport serves as a base for the airlines EasyJet, Ryanair and Volotea. It welcomed 7.7 million passengers in 2019, making it the 8th largest airport in France and the 6th outside the Paris region. However, since 2020, Nantes airport has tended to establish itself as the leading airport in western France, to the detriment of Bordeaux airport, which has demoted to the rank of 9th French airport (7th in the provinces) in number of passengers.
 
It shares its runways with the 106 Bordeaux-Mérignac air base of the French Air Force.
