Welcome to the 1931 National Air Tour, Read-Me
Part 2 corrects the texture issues with Part 1.
Part 3 corrects the texture issues with Part 1 and Part 2.
Part 3 texture issues will be resolved in "The Old Hangar, National Air Tour Forum" In addition, Part 3 adds AI River Boat traffic to the Mississippi River and other areas. Further it adds the Perry Monument on Lake Erie at Put-in-Bay and Fort Ticonderoga in New York. Last it adds an AI aircraft called "NAT Official Ship" which flies the entire course on the schedule listed below. Last, if you have Bill Lyon's Travel Air package, the AI for Phennick Field is included in Traffic_NAT_MASTER.bgl. In addition, If you have his goose package then you will have blimp traffic at New Orleans and Akron....I would also locate Moffett1.zip and add the GYAI Blimp....It has traffic files at KAKR (Akron)

SPECIAL NOTEs:
1. If you have my 1933 Akron Scenery either deactivate or delete. In Addon Scenery/Scenery delete or move AF2_KWF1 & AF2_KWF2. If you move them, move them to 1933 Akron/Scenery, they will work just fine in that location.
2. Either move or delete the Traffic_WingfootLake*.bgl(s) and the KAKR_Flight.bgl from FS9 or GW3/Scenery/World/Scenery, if you want to keep them move them to Addon Scenery/1931 Akron/Scenery.
3. If you have my Great Boat Race Scenery leave it activiated but remove the traffic files. There are new traffic files included with Traffic_NAT_MASTER.bgl.
TO INCREASE FRAME RATES:
1. I have enclosed five traffic files for the National Air Tour and are written to GW3/Scenery/World/Scenery, they are:
a. Traffic_1931_nat_ford_airport.bgl
b. Traffic_1931_nat_kbfd.bgl
c. Traffic_1931_nat_nat2.bgl
d. Traffic_1931_NAT_MASTER
e. Traffic_1931_NAT_Official_Aircraft_ATO.bgl
RECOMMENDATION: In GW3/Scenery/World/scenery create a folder called "Holding Pattern" Move your "traffic030528.blg" to this folder. Do not delete....It is your ORIGINAL TRAFFIC FILE", if you do, download GW3 and copy it.
2. The Detroit, Michigan area hits frame rates hard.....to increase frame rates delete some of these files based on your preferences....
a. Ford_Airport_Fences.bgl
b. Ford_Airport_Vehicles.bgl
c. Ford_Airport_Lights.bgl
d. Ford_Airport_Trees.bgl
RECOMMENDATION: In GW3/Addon Scenery/Ford_Airport_Dearborn_Mi/scenery creat a folder called "Landscaping" move the aforementioned files to that folder depending on your preferences for flying without......you pick but they are listed from most impact to least impact.

SIGHT SEEING: there are a number of other objects included in the scenery besides the airfields.....pay special attention at Belle Island, Corpus Christi, New Orleans just to mention a few....Watch out for oil wells in Oklahoma.....
As always,
1. I have included the object .bgls for those who like to design scenery. Feel free to use any of my objects for any freeware scenery. However, if you want to use them for commercial scenery, please contact me first.
2. This scenery is for upload only at "The Old Hangar".
I hope everyone enjoys this scenery package.
MY THOUGHTS - This scenery was a labor of love. Personally, I enjoy that golden era from the Victorian Period to World War II. The aviation pioneers from that period to unimaginable risk. However, without them we would be grounded.
All the best!
Enjoy
