ADDITIONAL SITUATIONS
_______________________________________________________________________

Included with this scenery are 4 additional situations that demonstrate 
the New York scenery - "NYC - Fly down Broadway", "NYC - Follow the Hudson 
River", "NYC - Statue of Liberty", and "NYC - Uptown at Dawn".  
To access these situations select them from the Situations dialog box by 
selecting the Options menu and then Situations.


CONFIGURING YOUR SYSTEM FOR EXPANDED MEMORY
________________________________________________________________________
A utility is also shipped with this product- FSSYSTEM.EXE. 
The more expanded memory you have available, the better the New York
Scenery will perform.  FSSYSTEM.EXE will create a boot disk with the 
optimum memory configuration for your machine.  See the inside back cover 
of your Microsoft Flight Simulator Pilot's Handbook for more information 
on how to use FSSYSTEM.EXE.


ADDITIONAL THINGS TO SEE AND DO
________________________________________________________________________

We suggest that in the high density scenery areas around New York City,
you will enjoy your flight most at low altitudes. Stay below 3000 feet
(and even considerably lower in some areas) to enjoy the maximum
scenery display.


   UP THE HUDSON

   Follow the Hudson River north from Manhattan past the George Washington
   Bridge (suspension) along the Palisades to the Tappan Zee Bridge. Then
   turn west and fly over the ridges and through the valleys of northern
   New Jersey.

   THE HARLEM RIVER

   From LaGuardia, instead of following the East River down past Manhattan;
   near the Triboro Bridge, turn right and follow the Harlem River to the
   Hudson. Stay very low as you pass over many small bridges, Yankee
   Stadium, Columbia University football stadium and the buildings of
   the Bronx.

   AROUND QUEENS AND BROOKLYN

   From LaGuardia, head southeast past Shea Stadium, the US Open Tennis 
   Stadium, Flushing Meadows (site of the New York World's Fair) and
   on to Kennedy. Turn southwest over Jamaica Bay and on along the coast
   to Coney Island and the Verrazano Narrows Bridge. 
   
   AROUND NEWARK

   From Newark head south to the Goethals Bridge (aqua colored). Turn
   left and follow the Arthur Kill to Newark Bay. Turn north just before
   reaching the gray Bayonne Bridge. Fly up Newark Bay under the Newark
   Bay Bridge and the railroad bridge just beyond. Follow the Hackensack
   River (the one on the right side at the head of Newark Bay) north
   until you see the Meadowlands and Giants Stadium on your left. Turn
   left and fly west to the Passaic River. Turn left again and follow 
   the Passaic south to downtown Newark and Newark airport just beyond.


A WORD ABOUT ILS/EFIS SELECTION
________________________________________________________________________

   In the United States it is common that a single ILS frequency will
   service BOTH ends of the same runway. When you tune an ILS frequency,
   FS5 will select the NEAREST runway end as your assumed destination.
   If you are not closest to the desired destination runway end when you 
   tune an ILS and initiate EFIS, you may need to de-tune that frequency
   and re-tune it again, once you are closest to your desired touchdown
   runway end.


ADDITIONAL AIRPORT INFORMATION
________________________________________________________________________

   In the approach descriptions below, information such as: 
   
     "RWY 4R  - 108.7 Heading 039 intersect at LIZAH 204 LOM at 1700 feet"

   means:

      Runway 4R has ILS at frequency 108.7. Its heading is 039 degrees and
      it can be found by flying to the LOM (Localized Outer Marker) named
      LIZAH at frequency 204 at 1700 feet. Tune the ADF to 204 and follow
      the gauge to it at 1700 feet; at which point, the ILS 108.7 should
      be found directing you toward runway 4R on heading 039.
