FS2004 Screenshots Here!!!

For FS2004 there is the Falkland Islands task force scenery which has the Invincible-class Ark Royal, the earlier HMS Ark Royal IV and Ian Elliot and Justin Hook's retro RNAS scenery to accompany it (also found in the library here). There is a FS2004 model of HMS Hermes adapted by Dave Garwood, but I'm not sure where to find that.

As far as I know there isn't a Queen Elizabeth/Prince Of Wales for FS2004. As Priller has pointed out, if you use FSX you have plenty to choose from.

There were also the carriers from the Abacus Strike Force set. HMS Illustrious, Charles De Gaulle (R91), and USS Bonhomme Richard (strike carrier version). Abby actually did a good job in terms of where they placed their ships and this is also the source for the ONLY F-35C I know about for FS9.

For everybody needing a flyable (non AI) S-70 Seahawk Helicopter, you’ll find one on Rikooo.

that Falkland Islands task force scenery is derived from the original Portsmouth Highrise scenery https://www.fs2000.org/2007/03/06/fs2004-uk-scenery-portsmouth-highrise/ by Simon Swallow, with the Ark Royal at Portsmouth Harbour

Also, a search @ MAIW for the Ark Royal reveals https://militaryaiworks.com/downloa...ai-packages/530-hms-ark-royal-task-force.html https://militaryaiworks.com/downloa...-royal-task-force-ski-jump-files-for-fs9.html - with the Ark Royal located in the English Channel
 
The Charles De Gaulle is also hiding in the MAIW Rafale M AI download. :wiggle:
indeed included here https://militaryaiworks.com/download-hangar/file-library/download/48-france/75-french-rafales.html - the carrier by Joel Maillot

and speaking frankly, if seeking French carriers then, per https://sim-outhouse.org/sohforums/...e-to-find-and-which-is-best.58915/post-639614 also cannot go wrong with the complete set of Joel Maillot's efforts, still available courtesy of web archive https://web.archive.org/web/20090224045815/http://joel.maillot.free.fr/fs2k2_Porte_avions1.html
 
Appreciate your constant search efforts, but it would nice if the first two links aren't wrong or death.

sorry Bernard, but I have no control over whether or not a site is experiencing downtime; perhaps try again when the site is up and running; and while indeed the links are valid, as @Airbasil mentions, MAIW is down for everyone

anyhow, as a first, not unwise to check at https://onlineornot.com/website-down-checker in the event a posted website link proves inaccessible
 
It’s the final day, bringing a mix of anticipation and anti-climax. We are wondering what aircraft will be best suited to the journey, and yes, you guessed, it’s something of an amphibious theme:
Combo.jpg

The mighty Colorado dies (most of the year) before reaching the waters of the Golfo de California, the final dregs after Colorado, Utah, Arizona, Nevada and California have argued about how much each is entitled to are sucked away west for Mexican agriculture or evaporated by the encroaching Desierto De Altar.

The only airport listed south of San Luis Rio Colorado is a not very reassuring El Doctor (MMOG)(a 3360’ strip of asphalt), so an amphibian would allow us to land near the Isla Montague, the island that could be considered the final gasp of the Colorado.

The final choice is none of the above, we decide something that blends history and modernity would be ideal:
D7 1a.jpg

Something about the 40’s lines mated to the turboprops gives the craft a purposeful yet friendly look. Time to load up our junk, plenty of room for it in this flying boat.
Back to following our river downstream:
D7 3 follow riv.jpg

Passing Laguna AAF (KLGF) in the Yuma Proving Ground. We make sure we don’t stray into it’s restricted air space.
D7 4 KLGF.jpg

Two more dams slip by: Imperial Dam then Laguna Dam (neither show in FS9) as we pass through the Chocolate Mountains and Yuma city comes into view with it’s joint use airport Yuma MCAS/Yuma Intl.:
D7 5 Yuma.jpg

We decide to stop in Yuma to pick up some provisions and complete all the paperwork for popping into Mexico, and more importantly our return into the USA. We would rather not have our aircraft taken apart in a search for contraband.
We decide to land on the river, we can, so why not?
But these bridges are not the right type for a highly illegal fly under:
D7 6 Yuma bridgs.jpg
D7 7 Yuma land.jpg

Heading down the now much diminished Colorado towards San Luis (USA side) and San Luis Rio Colorado (Mexican side). For the next few miles the river is the border; east is USA west Mexico.
D7 91 river border.jpg

Now in Mexico and our destination is in sight but the river has all but disappeared:
D7 93 end in sight.jpg

At our destination: The Riserva De La Biosfera Alto Golfo in the Colorado delta:
D7 94 end.jpg

Time to spend a few days exploring the unique habitat at the end of our adventure.

Remembering old Stuff... the lovely and beautiful Sabena.
As “The Aviation Society” posted a Picture of this Beauty just three days ago in Facebook, i thought i wanted to do something similar.

The Seamax M-22 looks great.
I do have a soft spot for the smaller amphibs, that's one that I'm missing.

MAIW seems to be down again….

Just clicking on any published links would already be enough.
again @leuen when I posted the links, MAIW was up and running and the links checked out, but possibly sometime after, the website was down, and the links appeared temporarily invalid; anyhow MAIW is back up, so the posted relevant links ought to work ;)
Back up again.
thanks @Airbasil and @AndyG43
