Hi guys,usually being pretty much a payware guy my around the world trip made me search for a lot of freeware files lately.I stumbled over a freeware scenery of Cairns Australia which left me stunned. Not only is it payware quality, but excellent payware quality!! Frankly you rarely get this quality in payware. It was made by Daryl Fisher (thx a hundred times Daryl) and comes with its own landclass, mesh, AFCAD and even AITraffic.I am really astounded how much time and expertise some guys put in these files. Freeware is anything but dead as often implied in this forum.Thx a again to Daryl Fisher for this excllent contribution, I really appreciate it!!!!AlexBTW: The filename is ybcs_fs9.zip and it is available at the other site.

Thanks for the heads-up Alex. That's the kind of stuff I come in here for.Todd

"Access Forbidden.Access to URL: http://www.fs2000.org/last/news.aspHas been blocked."Check your browser settings - I had no problem with the site or download.Dave

Are you clicking from a work or office environment. It appears to be on your system. Since you are using a Filter Application, check there. As always, Download the file and scan, as with all files, before installing it.Also, I don't wonder at all, as the program is on your machine, and has nothing to do with the site, other than your settings Doug, IE, your computer is causing the block. I hope that clears up your wondering. ;-)Computer Associates eTrust Secure content Manager for HTTPhttp://www.zdnet.com.au/reviews/software/i...161368-3,00.htmRegards,Joe

Flipping nuisance it can be too!

Your welcome.Joe

Just to add that I originally found the pointer to the file here:http://walhalla.mine.nu/fs2004.phpAlex

>Hi,>>Thanks for the heads up.>>The file you listed is also available at the following>location without having to register, pay for faster downloads>search features, etc...:Trust me,if you pay you don't download faster. They must have capped the download speeds because your lucky to download at 90-100K with a cable modem no matter when you try. A few years back I could download at 500-600K any day,at any time.David

Anyone have a fix for the floating Radar Antenna in the northeast corner of the airport?
