How about some scenries in Siberia please. Some of us are just Stone cold climate minded, such as myself. I cant stand heat and now i have to suffer with Texas frying pan heat errrr.

Opps sorry Sean, I just saw a few Siberian sceneries in your list. Please let me know if you find anymore or the elusive Il-96 and 76 for FSX. Sean I know the feeling the of Fs9 Vs FSX in one hometown. My hometown is Yellowknife in Canada's Arctic along with Iqaluit over in nunavut. Lots of my fellow citizens have access to only Fs9. but the last few years with Federal Goverment of Canada's help and some buck from me and other members of the 440sq RCAF and USCG DSF. today we have bought nearly 250 copies of FSX Gold with MS's help thru one of there programs and also Lockheed has been of great assistance with ther Prepar3D. Has anyone tried anything like that for your hometown by chance? Bring the gift of FS.

Here's my "translation" of where in Russia the airfields in the following list are:
http://www.freewarescenery.com/fsx/russia.html

Designators starting with:
UU = West/central region
UL = St. Petersburg/Arkangelsk (northwestern basically) region
UR = Southwestern Russia / Caucuses region
UN = Siberia
US = Siberia
UH = Far East Russia
UO = Polar/Far North Russia
UW = Western Russia

That's just from my understanding and observation. I don't have facts to back that up, and I can't guarantee that it's completely accurate, but I believe that it can be used as a general guide. What I usually do when looking for new airfields is have the addon scenery listing on one tab, and a map on the other to look up the destination (Google map).

Regarding an Il-96, here's a link to an Avsim.su search for the term:
http://www.avsimrus.com/files.phtml?search...ing=&page=1

You'll notice a link to this website:
http://il-96-dev-team.3dn.ru

If you plug that site into Google Translate, there seems to be a mixture of links to download Il-96 related files. You may need to highlight the text to read it as the light text worked with the original website background, but Google Translate seems to have eliminated the background.
I have no knowledge regarding Il-76 details at this time, and am unsure if the 96 is even for FSX.

No need for google for me. Ive got a military proggy that'll read and translate anything including pig latin and yiddish.

Debated about making a separate thread for this...

Yes, there's a thread about "Other Great Sceneries Outside NZ" that would have been the right spot to pin this!
I just copied the various bits and saved to a Word doc for later perusal.

Going through all the stuff at http://www.freewarescenery.com/fs2004/russia.html takes more courage than I have.
Having a slightly distilled "favourites" list like this is a great resource.
I enjoyed reading your ramble too Sean, appreciate your taking the time.

Every time I think I've hit the end of my FS9.5 flight simulator, along comes a gem, and I wonder if we'll ever get to the end of it all.
I've certainly got enough amazing freeware and payware ( lots still unopened) to last well into 2013...

by **TVACGCEO** » Sun Oct 21, 2012 7:34 pm

Well I found a FSX Native Il86, but no translated documents or pics of the VC. Gonna have to buy extra Kiwi wine for sunday and get drunk lol.

Iris is working on the brandnew Yak 130 Training aircraft...

by **hasegawa** » Wed Mar 13, 2013 4:45 am

What we really Need... and nothing is in sight...

The most build helicopter worldwide...

Mil Mi 8/17/171/172

Well, the Mi 8 and istÂ´s Derivats are the most used helicopters worldwide, but no Nemeth, no Virtavia, no Milviz... nobody worked on this helicopter.
And we have such sceneries like Kamchatka and really Need him...

by **SeanTK** » Wed Mar 13, 2013 9:13 am

Yep, an Mi-8 would be excellent, considering that it is the world's most produced helicopter! I believe there may be a FSX-native exterior model of either the -8 or -17 out there, but that's it. A Cera Simulations or Milviz quality addon would be great, but I imagine that the market is just not there.

Strangely they do have along 30 year plus with New Zealand with heli-logging and the visitors heading south to the Ice .

I'm sure there was an FSX Mi-8, came with slick and rockets version? Maybe it was FS9? I'm sure it was FSX though.

by **Ian Warren** » Thu Mar 14, 2013 9:45 am

Very sure it was a FS9er , looking for one a few years back

A quick search has turned up this on Avsim Rus:

Hope this helps!

Great site Avsim Rus ...... all sorts of stuff there.

by **hasegawa** » Fri Mar 15, 2013 11:25 pm

I have this installed... sorry but forget it. It is ZychulskiÂ´s 9er and the Cockpit is not working. There is a Panel at avsim.su also. But this is far from the reality and flying without VC after the Mi 17 from Nemeth in the 9er? No.

by **hasegawa** » Wed Mar 20, 2013 4:16 pm

Sibwings Antonov An 2

http://www.sibwings.com/

I have the SAAB Safir from them and think for this An 2 is more hope as from Aerosoft.

What about the SAMDIM Tu-114, that started as an FS9 but has been upgraded to FSX, and it flies really nicely and the systems are pretty good too, you can fly it with the old steam gauges or there is an upgraded glass cockpit version too

by **SeanTK** » Thu Mar 21, 2013 9:43 am

The 114 is a port-over unless I missed a native conversion somewhere. This thread primarily focused on FSX-native models. I haven't checked out the 114 in FSX as far as preservation of systems, so I can't comment on that.

Sean , visitor just left here , "choppernut" , we were discussing the rusky thread and the coldwar thread ... the 114 was the primary chat item ... that is one wicked aircraft but it just did not look right in its final 1980 s livery .. only for the 60s and 70 scheme it really suited , to get a true FSX model would be superb but one type i dearly miss is the AN22 ... now that would be supreme !

Good Russian stuff for FSX (or lack of)
