Iain Murray's Aircraft and Adventures

© Iain Murray 2003 - last update 19^th May 2003

This page contains FS aircraft and adventures created by myself using public domain software tools (the flight models are from freeware aircraft downloaded from the Internet). ZIP files are available as freeware for download from this page. I am assuming that you have:

MS Flight Simulator 2002, FS2000 or FS98
WinZIP, or another utility for reading ZIP files

Also check out my FS Utilities Page for some useful utilities and my FS Scenery Page for my scenery files.

Note that all aircraft on this page were designed for FS98 but are FS2000/FS2002 compatible - simply install as for FS98.

Contents of this page:

the Tayside collection - aircraft and adventures with a local flavour

the Loganair collection - aircraft operated from Glasgow by Loganair

the Titan Airways collection - aircraft operated by Titan Airways - nice colour scheme!

the Caribbean collection - aircraft operated by LIAT and HelenAir in the Caribbean area

The Tayside Collection

Tayside scenery - see my FS Scenery Page for this

Tayside Aviation - the fleet!

Tayside Aviation are based at Riverside Airport, Dundee (Scotland), and are predominantly engaged in flying training through Tayside Flying Club. They have a substantial fleet of aircraft based in Dundee, Perth and Glenrothes (Fife) including numerous Cessna 152s and Diamond Katanas, and several different Piper aircraft. In this archive are six aircraft - Cessna 152, Cessna 152 Aerobat, Diamond Katana, Piper Archer, Piper Warrior and Piper Aztec (since sold by the company), all in the distinctive Tayside Aviation logo.

ScotAirways

ScotAirways (formerly Suckling Airways) operate a service between Dundee and London City daily using a Dornier DO328. Several aircraft have been seen on the route including G-BWWT, G-BYHG, G-BYMK and G-BYHF. The former three aircraft received a special Scottish Suckling livery, with red tartan tail and saltire on the nose, in early 1999. All the Company's aircraft all now sport the new ScotAirways logo. This aircraft includes a corrected version of the visual model for FS2000.

ScotAirways - FS Adventures

Fly a return service from Dundee to London City using the ScotAirways Dornier DO328. These two air traffic control adventures take you on the routes used by the real aircraft operating this service. Custom audio files and instructions are included. Use of the Tayside scenery, Millennium Dome scenery and enhanced London City Airport scenery (see README file) is recommended to get the most out of this adventure.

Download these adventures for FS98/FS2000 (81KB file) - also needed are the ATC sound effects AAFWAV.ZIP available from FLIGHTSIM.COM
These adventures were written for the earlier Suckling Airways aircraft - if using the above ScotAirways aircraft, please load it first and ignore the aircraft initialisation error on running the adventure. Chocks away!

Palmair Flightline BAe 146-300

Palmair is the tour operating division of Bath Travel who operate a single BAe 146 Whisper Jet from Bournemouth International Airport (UK) to several destinations, mostly in the Mediterranean. This plane flew weekly from Dundee to Majorca during summer 1997.

The Loganair Collection

Loganair are based at Glasgow Airport, Scotland, and operate a small fleet of small airliners on numerous short routes to and between the Western and Northern Isles of Scotland. Their aircraft now carry British Airways Express colours (Loganair is a BA franchise operator); the aircraft are gradually receiving the new BA "world" colours, including tartan and celtic design tails.

Loganair de Havilland DHC-6 Twin Otter

Barra is one of the more interesting airports in Scotland, being the only UK airport on a beach. Flights to the island from Glasgow use this Twin Otter aircraft. The aircraft has not yet received the new BA "world" colours. The files below include a situation file for the beginning of the flight from Glasgow to Barra.

Loganair Shorts SD 360 / Pilatus BN2 Islander

Loganair operate several 360s and Islanders on their services. A 360 has been used on the Barra service, but proved unreliable and the Twin Otter was returned to the service. These aircraft each include two liveries, the original BA Express colours and the new "world" colours.

Their fleet currently comprises two BAe 146s, one Shorts 360, two ATR 42s and one Cessna Citation aircraft. The aircraft used to have a rather dull brown colour scheme with a Greek soldier (Titan), but now have this rather stunning livery with Titan moon logo.
