X-Plane pilots! Downloads for the Catalina, airports, scenery and flight plan are listed below.

• Flight plan (.fms file) available at Storm's Flight Plans here. Note the starting airport's code is now KLLR.
• High quality freeware Consolidated PBY-5A Catalina (by Hydroz.net). Available at x-plane.org here.
• 3D scenery for our final airport KSAC is part of default X-Plane 11. Others are only 2D in default. Alcatraz (and some general San Francisco city scenery) is not not part of default X-Plane. Freeware downloads for these, plus scenery libraries, all created by pilots and enthusiasts, are listed below.
  • KLLR (ex-O48) available at x-plane.org here. This requires OpenSceneryX, RE_Library and CDB library (see below).
  • KSTS available at x-plane.org here. This requires OpenSceneryX (see below).
  • Alcatraz and general San Francisco scenery available from x-plane.org here. Caution: large download! This requires MisterX library (see below). Optionally, if you want moving jetways and marshallers at nearby KSFO, you require the Autogate plugin (see below).
  • OpenSceneryX available here.
  • CDB library available here.
  • RE_library available here.
  • MisterX library available here.
  • Autogate plugin available here. Note this is a plugin, not scenery, and is not installed in custom scenery!
  
  If you already have the libraries/plugin installed, you don't need them again (other than to make sure they're up to date), and you can reuse them for other scenery downloads.
  
  Note that x-plane.org downloads require membership - which is free, quick and easy. New members are limited to 20 downloads per day.
