Title: Introduction to khamsin.org
A netizen named pitaFly living in Canada recommended the www.khamsin.org website to me.
I went to check it out immediately and found that this website has developed quite a few stunning Plugins and aircraft for X-Plane,
such as the B17 Flying Fortress bomber, offshore oil drilling platforms, the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier, the Perry-class frigate, and so on.
They are exquisitely made and are truly worth recommending.
In fact, the aircraft carriers and frigates produced by this website are now standard equipment in X-Plane 10; you can fly out to sea to look for them.
The method to find them is simple: open the Local Map in the Location menu, move to any sea area,
and then look on the map for the icons within the circle in the image below. The large one is the aircraft carrier, and the small one is the frigate. You can generally find them.
See if you can find them?
If you really can’t find any, you can check if you haven’t selected the item in Settings -> Rendering Options. You can refer to the image below,
Make sure to check “draw aircraft carriers and frigates”.
Here is a group photo of a Cessna 172 diving at the Perry frigate:

Additionally, the drilling platform currently under production will also appear in the new version 10.1.10 of X-Plane. Let’s wait and see.
Let me also introduce the B17. It is really majestic.
This Flying Fortress uses the “BLUE CHAMPAGNE” markings of the 549th Squadron.
It seems to have participated in the European theater of World War II.
Here is a screenshot.
