Southeast Louisiana Regional Scenery for Flight Simulator 4.0
Version 1.00a - February 1992
based on the New Orleans VFR Terminal Area Chart,
32nd Edition, December 13, 1990.

What's New???
- Redesigned NAS New Orleans
- New airport: Le Maire Memorial at Jeanerette.
- ATIS and COM messages on frequencies listed in the Airport Facility
Directory
- Runway and taxiway lights at New Orleans International (only)
(If you don't see any difference, try it at night.)
- Roadway network now completed
This is the last version of scenery for Southeast Louisiana in this
form - mainly because of the memory crunch. There's a lot of things
that I want to add but can't, like: some seaplane bases along the
Intracoastal Waterway, the Intracoastal Waterway itself, the
Atchafalaya and Pearl Rivers, Bayou Lafourche, those lakes near
the Patterson / Morgan City area, and runway lights for all airports.
But that's all in the future when I figure out how to use multiple
SC1 files and get that boundary thing worked out. And one thing that
is definitely gonna get fixed is that Lake Ponchartrain. It irks me
that way it keeps popping in and out.
I express thanks to Dr. Creston "Absent-Minded Aviator" King for
providing the Jepp charts which were very valuable.
If you have any comments, criticisms, or suggestions, you are welcome
to send it to me at:
High Tech BBS - (504)837-7941 or CompuServe address 70751,431
WWIVnet address 160@5409
especially if you can tell me how that overlap thing works.

Hardware / Software Requirements
The hardware and software requirements for this highly sophisticated
and complicated piece of machinery are:
- an IBM compatible computer (preferrably an 80286 or higher)
- 640K RAM
- a hard drive or high density (1.2M/1.44M) floppy drive
- MS/PC-DOS 2.0 or greater
- CGA/MCGA/EGA/VGA/Hercules graphics card
- an appropriate monitor to go with the graphics card
- Microsoft Flight Simulator 4.0
- Microsoft Aircraft and Scenery Designer 1.0
And that's it. Optional equipment includes:
- a 300 baud or faster modem
- Microsoft compatible mouse
- Joystick w/IBM compatible game card
- Control Yoke with Rudder Pedals
- Sound, Graphics, and Aircraft Upgrade for Flight Simulator 4.0
- Adlib, SoundBlaster, SoundBlaster Pro, or other sound cards
supported by the SGA Upgrade.
Refer to instructions that came with your computer to figure out how
to put all that stuff together.
The scenery disk is not required because it doesn't exist. It was for
that reason I embarked on this project in the first place. I just got
tired of waiting and waiting and waiting... My Energizers ran out.

Installation Procedures
To install Flight Simulator, the Aircraft and Scenery Designer, and
scenery for Southeast Louisiana, a minimum of 1.2M of disk space is
required on your hard drive.
1. Install Microsoft Flight Simulator 4.0.
Refer to pages ix-x in the Microsoft Flight Simulator Information
Manual and Flight Handbook for details.
2. Install Microsoft Aircraft and Scenery Designer
Refer to page 6 in the Microsoft Flight Simulator Aircraft and
Scenery Designer User's Guide for details.
3. Delete all previous versions of this scenery file (also known as:
30090.SC1 v0.10 and MSYTCA.SC1 v0.50/0.60)
4. Unzip the archive LASMSYSW.ZIP to your Flight Simulator directory.
5. Run Flight Simulator and set the Static and Dynamic Scenery Memory
Allocation. Static: 59000, Dynamic: 5000, and save it.
6. Exit and restart Flight Simulator and go to the Mode Library to
select one of the mode files in this scenery file.
You should now be either sitting on the ground (most likely at a
runway threshold) or flying somewhere in Southeast Louisiana (if you
selected the correct mode.)

References

Optional References
New Orleans Sectional Aeronautical Chart

It's not essential to have all of these references, though having the
Terminal Chart would be helpful in getting all your directions and
landmarks straight. (No - pilots do not use nautical charts as one of
my sailing buddies found out.)
The New Orleans VFR Terminal Chart as well as the Sectional Charts
and Directories can be obtained from the Fixed Base Operator at your
local airport. The Enroute Charts and Instrument Approach Procedures,
however, are available only through subscription, so if you want
those you'll have to bug a pilot for theirs.
As a last resort, the file MAP.TXT can be printed out to give a rough
location of where everything is in relation to each other (airports
and navaids) if you can't obtain the VFR Terminal Chart.
