STAR San Francisco Scenery Disk

Introduction

SubLOGIC Scenery Disks are an enhancement designed to expand the potential flying environment of Flight Simulator 11 and other SubLOGIC flight simulation programs. You must have Flight Simulator 11, Microsoft Flight
Simulator, or Jet in order to use a Scenery Disk.

This STAR San Francisco Scenery Disk (SD) covers a small area with a relatively dense amount of scenery. STAR Scenery Disks are mainly intended for visual flight (sight-seeing), and include many buildings and landmarks as well as detailed renditions of the major airports in the area. The flying environment of this STAR SD is shown on the accompanying chart.

If you fly off of the scenery area depicted in this STAR SD chart, you will enter the San Francisco Sectional area of SubLOGIC Scenery Disk # 3. Documentation for that sectional is not included in this package. San Francisco Sectional scenery is included only to facilitate a smooth transition to Scenery Disk # 3.

Only radio-navigation aids that appear on the STAR San Francisco chart are available when flying in this scenery area (with the exception of Pajar NDB, Sausalito VOR, and Travis VOR; see directory for information on these radionav aids). If you leave this area, you will then be able to receive radio aids listed on the Scenery Disk # 3 San Francisco Sectional chart.

Radio aids common to the two areas are:

Woodside VOR		Concord VOR
Sausalito VOR		Pajar NDB
Scaggs Island VOR 	Travis VOR
Point Reyes VOR 	Sacramento VOR

All other ILS, ATIS, and radio-nav aids that appear on this STAR Scenery Disk do not exist outside the boundaries of this disk. VOR and NDB radio aids not available outside the boundaries of this scenery area include:

Oakland VOR
San Francisco VOR
Reiga NDB
San Jose VOR

Please take this into consideration when navigating outside the area depicted on the STAR SD chart.
A new FOG feature is available for the first time with this disk. To turn on: a low-lying layer of fog, set:

CLOUD LAYER 1 TOPS: 7
CLOUD LAYER 1 BOTTOMS: 5

This visual effect adds realism and allows you to maintain contact with all radio-nav aids while flying. 3D structures (buildings, mountains, bridges) remain visible above the fog. ILS landings become a real challenge. (You can only land on top of the fog layer, not in it.) Use radar after landing to determine your placement on the runway.
