SkyFerry
By Kaphias
SkyFerry- By Kaphias for the 2010 X-Plane Car Ferry Competition
This aircraft tied for 2nd place in the Car Ferry competition. Put simply, it's very easy to fly. It has very docile handling characteristics and can carry an absurd amount of weight. Below is the "read me" file, which is included in the download:
--------------------------------------------------------------
This aircraft uses two Europrop TP400-D6 engines, the same engines used on the upcoming Airbus A400M.
Data sources:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europrop_TP400
http://www.mtu.de/en/products_services/military_business/programs/tp400_d6/index.html
http://www.rolls-royce.com/defence/products/transporters/tp_400_d6.jsp
Engine start procedure:
On the right side of the panel, turn on the battery, avionics, and both generators, then the igniter and fuel switches for each engine.
Press and hold each start button for five seconds until startup, then turn on the Inverter as well.
Takeoff procedure:
Lower flaps one or two notches depending on runway length. Throttle engines to full power, rotate at 115-135kts depending on weight.
Retract gear, raise flaps as needed. Climb at no more than 1000 fpm.
There is a maximum takeoff weight of 100,000 pounds, though the aircraft will fly at up to 200,000 pounds.
Just don't expect to survive an engine-out, or any other situation, hence the 100,000 pound limit.
NOTE: This aircraft is unpressurized. Do not climb above 10,000 feet.
In a engine-out situation:
Use generous amounts of rudder, pray.
Landing procedure:
Slow to 110-125kts depending on weight, deploy flaps to full as needed.
Always keep some power to the engines, if you close the throttles the plane will drop.
Flare, close throttles for touchdown, engage full reverse thrust, add brakes as needed.
Disengage reversers, taxi off runway.
To remove cargo (cars):
Extend speedbrakes to open door, imagine cars rolling off the plane. Receive large payment from customer.
Buy yourself and co-pilot a beer, providing proceeding flight was last of the day.

Patch Files for all 767s
THIS ONE'S FOR ALL MY HARDWARE FLIERS. This package contains a set of patch files for all planes released prior to the discovery of the fix. this should stop the plane from jumping to full throttle when at idle.
Instructions:
Each folder is named after the real plane package, and each folder contains an aircraft file .acf. All you must do is copy/replace the file in the appropriate folder. DO NOT MIX/SWITCH FILES, AS EACH PLANE CONTAINS SUBTLE DIFFERENCES.
Also included in two aircrafts are replacement object folders, fixing slight object issues, just copy and paste the contents in these folders in to the objects folder
If you use hardware throttles, please comment below and let me know if this fixes the error.

OFFICIAL - IAE Engine Mod
By Attitude
If you want to support my development check out my latest work here >>>> Torquesim SR22!
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Full PBR texturing, completely animated interior, exterior and reverse animations.
THE INCLUDED TEXTURES ARE FOR THE AMERICAN AIRLINES LIVERY.
The paint kit includes several other liveries ready to be exported or edited! Have fun!!!
2k and 4k versions available
Please read the manuals.
When making a new livery with these make sure to set up the new IAE folder with textures within the new livery folder, for example:
Flight Factor A320/liveries/New Livery/objects/IAE
The installation is pretty complicated for newbies, so I included a walk through in the Manual included within the engine zip files.
A simple paint kit with manual is also included. One version for Affinity Photo users and a psd for PS users.
Without specific information from the aircraft developers on when to drive the animations, I did the best I could. There are times it is not as smooth as I would hope for.
Please enjoy this and create as many liveries as you can with these!

If you feel the desire to donate please use this link via paypal (<click here)
UPDATES: Please read these before continuing
Please make a duplicate of the A320 main folder and just overwrite that acf in planemaker (A320.acf) after adding the engines. Users are finding an error with two acf files in the same folder.
Make sure you set the lighting mode in Planemaker to "exterior glass" only for IAE_FAST_L.obj and IAE_FAST_R.obj
Alignment issue : Adjustment to coordinates in manual LAT. LAT.

McDonnell Douglas MD-80SF Conversion 0.8.0
By joeycao2004
Here is the rarely known MD-82SF, converted in real life by AEI Aeronautical Engineers, Inc., and here in X-Plane by me. This aircraft is based on Laminar Research's (Default) MD-82 and modified with permission. This aircraft is now in Beta version, featuring four freighter liveries and a slightly modified cabin with removed seats and cargo-style floor. Liveries include the first ever MD-80SF converted by AEI, registered N73444, which is later sold to Everts Air Cargo (also included), a normal Everts Air Cargo livery (Registered N965CE), and a Fitsair livery (Registered 4R-EXM). All livery and floor conversion made by me (feel free to view my other liveries for other aircrafts)
Please note that the windows inside is not yet sealed, so you can still see outside from the cabin. This will be fixed in later updates. An animated cargo door is also planned to be added. However, feel free to check this aircraft out in the current stage.
If you have any thoughts or comments regarding the aircraft, feel free to comment below. If you find any problem on the livery, feel free to @ me in the comment or, if you want a direct message, send me a message. Thank you!
If you like the work, please consider support my Cargo Conversion Workshop and buy me a coffee through paypal.me/xpfwshare.

IXEG Boeing 737-300 Classic - Canadian North
Canadian North 737-300s, originally by Veace, updated by me.
This one comes in two variants, a full passenger version, and a version that has a Combi door applied to the side of the fuselage. It's obviously just for aesthetics (and the combi door texture is by Shenherm, so thanks to him for making it/letting me use it!)
C-GCNZ is the passenger variant
C-GZCN is the combi variant. For realism, you wouldn't use the winglets on this, as they don't have them.
I've updated and fixed some little inaccuracies, such as the flags, the logo placement (for these particular airframes, where Veace had it for his registration was accurate), added fin numbers to the tail and nose gear doors, painted the winglets, added the barber pole colours to the antennae, and a couple more little things. I didn't touch the swoopy pattern by Veace, as my talent for that kind of thing pales in comparison to his.
There are some inaccuracies, such as the doors all being the same colour, and no registration under the wing, since I'm limited by the IXEG model.
I've also included an accurate Canadian North Yoke Checklist, which is the B733_nolit.png file. That one has to go in your IXEG 733 Classic/objects folder, and it will overwrite any other file in there, as well as give that checklist to every 733 in your fleet. So use at your discretion.
If there's anything else that you think could be added, PM me on the org!

HD PW4090 Sounds For Flight Factor 777
By Jesse
New HD engine sounds for the Pratt & Whitney PW4000-112 engine. Specifically, the PW4090 version.
Details are in the included README.
Unfortunately there is currently no way to get the loud howl from behind the engines at idle, but the sound files are included anyway. Also, a sidenote, the PW4090 variant is the only version from the -112 family that doesn't have the low frequency "boop" when you advance the throttles.
Please enjoy these new sounds. Feedback is greatly appreciated

HD CDU - Texture Enhancement for Ramzzess 777
By PierreLvx
Another day… another enhancement !
Ramzzess' 777 pop up CDU texture always felt odd to me, especially as you interact so much with it throughout a flight.
I came up with something with a bit of weathering and much closer to ACTUAL fonts/markings.
3 variants are included :
Clean, with weathering applied to the unit body only ;
Weathered, with very slight weathering applied on the screen ;
Extra, with the above plus a fingerprint on the screen.
Please see the included Read Me for more info and installation details.
Note : More will be done/refined later on (v1.0). I just didn't want to hold it indefinitely since it is pretty OK in its current state.

avitab Default B744 Avitab Integration
By airfighter
A simple integration of Avitab into the default B747-400, by Ilias Tselios.
INSTALLATION
1. Windows and Linux users: Drop the B747-400 folder into X-Plane 11/Aircraft/Laminar Research/ folder. Done!
2. Mac users:
a. Copy the Avitab.json file in the X-Plane 11/Aircraft/Laminar Research/B747-400/ folder.
b. Copy the folder "B747.Avitab" found in the B747_Avitab/Boeing B747-400/plugins/xlua/scripts/ folder into the X-Plane 11/Aircraft/Laminar Research/B747-400/plugins/xlua/scripts/ folder.
USAGE
1. With the aircraft powered up, press the ECS button on the glareshield panel. Avitab will be displayed on the lower EICAS display.
2. Create a camera shortcut (Ctrl + a number on numberpad) to records a position that you have clear view of the display.
3. You can use Avitab normally. Avitab follows the normal operation (on/off, brightness, etc) as normal.

Corrected XP10 747
By aeropilot
Basically the default x-plane 10 747, but with many corrections to its animation and an overhauled flight model.
I could not stand the inaccuracies of the default XP10 747, and I have waited for quite a while for someone at Laminar to fix them. A lot of data in PlaneMaker is totally off, including the outrageously high SFC (at 0.600) which made my plane crash at the tip of Hokkaido while I flew from LAX to TPE. The animation of the slats were disgusting too. And the last wire was the fact that roll spoilers aren’t animated. So one day I woke up and decided to fix them myself. This file was uploaded onto the org a week ago, but here it is. The objects here are much more refined than the ones I uploaded on the org, with edited landing gears, wings, and horizontal stabilizers.
Includes four aircraft, one for each type of engine!
PW4056 PW4062
GE CF6-80C2B5F (higher thrust, higher SFC)
GE CF6-80C2B1F (lower thrust, lower SFC)
Here's the very long list of modifications:
Accurate SFC for PW4056, PW4062, GE CF6-80C2B1F, and GE CF6-80C2B5F. Information from http://www.jet-engin.../civtfspec.html , a complete chart of every engine out there.
The PW4056 has 56,750 lbs of thrust, with sea level SFC at 0.320 and high altitude SFC at 0.572. This is the one that is used on the default United livery.
The PW4062 has 63,300 lbs of thrust, with sea level SFC at 0.335 and high altitude SFC at 0.587
The CF6-80C2B1F has 57,160 lbs of thrust with sea level SFC at 0.316 and high altitude SFC at 0.564. Used on China Airlines, JAL, KLM, Lufthansa, Eva Air, and a bunch of others.
The CF6-80C2B5F has 62,100 lbs of thrust with sea level SFC at 0.323 and high altitude SFC at 0.571
Bypass ratio 4.9 for PW engines and 5.2 for GE engines.
[*]I learned AC3D and tilted all landing gears at the right angles.
[*]Horizontal Tail moves with trim.
[*]Radii of gyration edited.
[*]Landing gear damping edited.
[*]Flaps coefficient dropped from 2.5 to 1.2
[*]Landing gear deployment time edited.
[*]Resized outboard ailerons in flight model from 20% into 30% of chord to match real size.
[*]Outboard aileron deflection now 15 degrees down and 20 degrees up.
[*]Outboard aileron locks past 270 KIAS, just like the real thing. Now while flying at high speed roll rate is slow because you only have the inboards. This is implemented in the flight model and the wing object.
[*]Accurate engine data, different for each engine, including bypass ratio, max RPM, thrust, critical altitude, and a bunch of other tweaks.
[*]Complex spoiler and speedbrakes fully modeled in flightmodel and object. There are six speedbrakes on each wing:
[*]The outmost two (1 and 2) only act as roll spoilers in flight at 45 degrees, but acts as speedbrake at 45 degrees on ground.
[*]Spoilers 3 and 4 act both as flight and ground speedbrakes and roll spoilers at 45 degrees.
[*]Spoiler 5 act as roll spoiler and flight speedbrakes at only 20 degrees, but ground speedbrakes at 45 degrees.
[*]Spoiler 6 does not act as roll spoiler, but only speedbrakes at 20 degrees.
[*]Now the roll spoilers move visually in wing obj. Before the objects only moved with speedbrakes, not spoilers.
[*]The kruger-flaps looked retarded on the default 747 because they only opened up half way. They look less retarded now because I edited the animation and they open up fully. The kruger-flaps were not modeled correctly, so they still look some-what stupid.
[*]In the real 747, the inboard kruger flaps open at flaps 1 while the outboard at flaps 5. This is now modeled in the flight model and the object animation by editing the obj file with a text document. This took an agonizing three hours.
[*]The horizontal tail and vertical tail had too thick airfoils. I changed the vertical stabilizer to NACA 0006 and the horizontal stabilizers to NACA 64-209 inverted at the root and NACA 64-206 inverted at the tip. And I have different airfoils for the h. stab at low and high Reynolds!
[*]The winglets had thick symmetrical airfoils, but in the real thing they produce lift so they are not just wing fences, so I used NACA 64-206 airfoil.
[*]Vertical tail sweep slightly refined.
[*]Autopilot rings when approaching target altitude.
[*]Stall warning alpha raised from 10 to 15.
[*]Flap limits refined.
[*]Maximum control deflection time is 0.5 seconds.
[*]Center tank pump pressure increased so it will empty first.
[*]System numbers modified.
Installation:
Installation:
Make four copies of the default 747. Name each folder (after engine type):
CF6-80C2B5F
CF6-80C2B1F
PW4062
PW4056
Now, open up the download. Then open one of the subfolder (example, PW4062).
You should see 747-400 United under the PW4062 folder. Copy that and drop it into the folder named PW4062 you have created. Click yes for replace.
Copy the contents of the object folder into the objects folder inside the folder you created. Click yes for replace.
Copy the airfoil folder into the folder you have created.
Repeat these steps for other engines.
Incredible thanks to CWilliams for posting this great page: http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?showtopic=61457.
Dedicated to Pierre Lavaux who showed me that page, and Peter Tram, and the whole of X-Plane Aviators for their support.
Thanks to Mohammad Gazzawi / Sergio Santagada / Javier Rollon for the basic 747.
Do not distribute the obj file or acf file without my permission. Contact me first at jeffreynasa@hotmail.com
Pierre Lavaux is working on the custom sounds for the next update, and Alex Reichert is working on the systems too. I would think these would be included for the next update.1,511 downloads

Bombardier Q500 Concept
By Kaphias
Bombardier Q500- By Kaphias for the 2011 X-Plane.org Next Gen Turboprop Competition
This aircraft is a derivative of my SkyFerry. The Q500 concept is a stable, easy to fly canard design, with plenty of power to get in and out of short strips. It seats 72 passengers.
Below is the "read me" file, which is also included with the download.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Engine start procedure:
On the right side of the panel, turn on the battery, avionics, and both generators, then the igniter and fuel switches for each engine.
Press and hold each start button for five seconds until startup, then turn on the Inverter as well.
Takeoff procedure:
Lower flaps one or two notches depending on runway length. Throttle engines to full power, rotate at 130-155kts depending on weight.
Retract gear, raise flaps as needed. Climb at 230kts and 1500-2000fpm.
In an engine-out situation:
Increase speed to stabilize aircraft, retract flaps, return to airport.
Landing procedure:
Slow to 120-140kts depending on weight, deploy flaps to full as needed. Trim up or pull back on the stick to keep the nose up.
Always keep some power to the engines, if you close the throttles the plane will drop.
Flare, close throttles for touchdown, speedbreaks up, engage full reverse thrust, add brakes as needed.
Disengage reversers, close speedbreaks, taxi off runway.
This aircraft uses two Europrop TP400-D6 engines, the same engines used on the upcoming Airbus A400M.
Data sources:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europrop_TP400
http://www.mtu.de/en/products_services/military_business/programs/tp400_d6/index.html
http://www.rolls-royce.com/defence/products/transporters/tp_400_d6.jsp
The airfoils are from the Car Ferry competition package.
The Q500 seats 72 people in a 2x2 configuration. This makes for 18 rows. I have spaced the rows 40 inches apart, which is just above the average for many of todays airlines. Bags are placed in the rear of the plane. Six 2x6 bag "weapons" were used to represent the size and weight of 72 bags.
