PatchPaul Craig supplies a DDS-based patch for the 747-400 in its standard variant, sharpening the airframe appearance without affecting flight dynamics. It overwrites b747_1_t.dds across the variant folders and sits in OS (C)/Program Files(x86)/Microsoft Games/SimObjects/Airplanes/b747_400, with a standard installation confirming improved clarity.
Repaint for PaywarePH-BQG registers a new design derived from the 200ER and tied to the 777-200LR base pack, with artwork by Corina Meyer. A .ptp file accompanies the asset for use, reflecting the modification derived from the 200ER lineage.
Complete with Base ModelAn enhanced Bombardier FTV5, registered C-GWXZ, is presented as a CSeries 100 version 4 and created by Camil Valiquette. It implements animated ground servicing and static elements, and features door operations via Shift+E for passengers and Shift+D for cargo.
Complete with Base ModelProject Opensky models a B737-800WE for Japan Airlines JA312J, featuring construction number 35341/2584 and crane identity crafted by Paul Craig. It includes the standard B738 virtual cockpit, an operating manual, and supports the aircraft's basic operating systems.
RepaintTwo ANA variants appear for the Boeing 737-800, named All Nippon and All Nippon Gold, with distinct atc_id values JA54AN and JA02AN and flight numbers 148 and 951, by Cassidy Dietrich, in the referenced compilation.

Complete with Base ModelAn A350-1000 variant presents a six-wheel landing gear and a distinct Animated Ground Servicing (AGS) system. The model design and paint are by Camil Valiquette, and an accompanying image file named 350tg_x.gif is included here.
Complete with Base ModelRegistration G-VIIS identifies a British Airways Boeing 777-200ER modeled by Melvin Rafi and refined by David Grindele for enhanced lighting compatibility with A2A 3D Lights and Redux. The enhancement introduces engine cowling animations triggered by Shift + E and jetway control via Ctrl + J while preserving the original Meljet geometry and flight dynamics.
The 787-8 version links Thomson Airways to a UK-wide network of 22 airports and carries registration G-BYDR. The model stems from the Project Open Sky 767-300ER design and includes full animations such as Animated Ground Servicing.
Complete with Base ModelCAMSIM Aviation Simulation releases a second-generation Boeing 787-8 model that bears Avianca’s color scheme and refined Animated Ground Servicing. Keystrokes Shift+E, Shift+E+2, Shift+D, and Shift+C control passenger doors and cargo operations, exterior finishes align with Avianca branding, and Camil Valiquette credits CAMSIM Aviation Simulation.
Complete with Base ModelGulf Air operates a 737-7CN(BBJ) with registration HB-IIQ, a BBJ variant, and bases the model on Kittyhawk Studios’ 737-700 framework, with Mohammed Al-Khalifa listed as the designer. The focus centers on a single variant and the base airframe.
PatchTom Tiedman provides a smoke effect for the 747-400, packaged with fx_smoke_f6.fx and four SMOKESYSTEM entries labeled smoke.0 to smoke.3. The configuration references fx_smoke_f6.fx and assigns three-dimensional coordinates for each plume, enabling visible engine exhaust on compatible aircraft setups.
Original JT8D turbofan sound accompanies a 727-100 model with a newly added 2D cockpit. A revised Aircraft.cfg accompanies the file, and a smoke/heat effect produces black smoke after engine power-up, activated via I, reflecting 1960s operations by Kim Schandorff for authentic ambiance.
Complete with Base ModelThe model is standalone and ready for extensive evaluation across scenarios, reflecting careful adaptation for freight-focused operations. The internal configuration designates a 787-9 cargo model with a UPS variation, aligning identifiers for coherent presentation globally.
A UPS-branded Airbus A300-600R variant uses a TOM306R-based model and targets short- to medium-range cargo missions with faithful fuselage markings. The base model TOM306R.ZIP by Thomas Ruth supports this configuration, while Christophe Bonneville supplies the UPS design.
RepaintAerolineas Argentinas visuals for the Boeing 737-800, by Mariano Gonzalez, remain tied to the default B737-800. An accompanying image bears the file name 738aargx.gif and serves as the reference for that airframe in a single configuration.
Anthony Duray presents Brussels Airlines branding applied to the default four-engine 747-400, tailored for the standard model and stock environments. It relies on the 747-400 base and references the image file b744snba.gif to illustrate the markings.
Air Canada’s A330-343X bears registration C-GFUR; Mario Monfrecola contributes the work for use with the Tom_A330-300 freeware model from Thomas Ruth, relying on the TOMA333B-1.ZIP baseline. It updates fuselage markings to reflect the airline's branding and highlights Canada’s largest carriers in long-haul service.
Project Airbus presents a TAM A320 in Star Alliance identity, including a double-bogey main-gear variant used in certain configurations. The model features XML-driven systems such as pressurization outflow control, ground spoilers, pack outlets, idle reversers, and drooping flight surfaces, plus opening doors for passengers and cargo.
