| Parker Airport (70NJ), NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 02 miles S of Asbury, New Jersey on 13 acres of land, Parker Airport is a private turf strip located on residential property. This airport is challenging in many ways. For one, when approaching from the southeast the airport is located immediately after a tall ridge, so when topping this ridge at altitude you may not even see the airport over the nose of your aircraft before you overfly it. The runway for this airport is 1600' feet long but it is curved and slightly sloped perpendicular to your roll, so significant rudder will be needed to stay aligned - be careful when operating with any crosswind component! It is highly recommended that you only depart via Runway 25 and arrive via Runway 07 to avoid having to clear significant obstacles prior to landing or after taking off. This airport has no hard-surfaced runway and there is a very noticeable "bump" in the terrain halfway down the runway that will literally bounce your aircraft into the air - I tried my best to smooth it over but could not get rid of it entirely. When taking off make sure you have back pressure applied so your main gear only bounce you high enough to remain within ground effect - hitting your nose wheel can cause an extreme pitch up leading to a stall. Trees close in tight to the runway at the end of Runway 07 or the start of Runway 25, however collision has been disabled with the trees nearest the runway so you can scrape some branches if needed on the takeoff/landing rolls. The author has successfully departed and arrived on both runways in the default Cessna 172 under moderate crosswind from the northeast. This field may definitely require some practice but it is usable!! This airport has no edge lighting, so daytime VFR operations only are recommended.

This scenery is meant to be used in conjunction with MegaScenery Earth New York 007. It is not required, but apron use is minimized to allow satellite scenery to show through as much as possible, and objects are placed based on the MSE textures - lack of it may make scenery look out of place.

| Spitfire Aerodrome Airport (7N7), NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 02 miles S of Pedricktown, New Jersey on 48 acres of land, Spitfire Aerodrome Airport is a public asphalt single-strip field that allows transient craft to tie down on the apron. There are also helicopters based here on this field (note there is no Jet-A fuel available) so the helicopter start location will place you on the ramp.
Although this airport has a beacon, FSX for some reason does not include one with the stock airport file and I can't yet create rotating beacons so it is there and lit at night but does not rotate and is not as visible as the rotating ones. This will be addressed in a later update. Also take note of the layout of this airport, it requires that AI traffic cross the runway in order to taxi to either end for take off. AI aircraft DO NOT hold short when taxiing across runways (this is an FSX limitation), so use extreme caution on approach and departure to avoid any unfortunate runway incursions. Aircraft can fuel up by parking near the fuel truck beside the hangar south of the runway. If you have trouble locating the windsock, look on top of the hangar roof north of the runway. The crashed aircraft in the pond is fictional, there is a distinctive airplane-shaped object there in the satellite textures but I could not determine what this might be from aerial photos so I just crashed a plane there for kicks :)

| Stoe Creek Farm Airport (7NJ2), NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 01 miles S of Canton, New Jersey, Stoe Creek Farm is a private turf field 1725' in length. The runway is largely clear of obstructions although on approach for Runway 05 you will deal with 20-30' trees a few hundred feet back from the threshold and there are transmission towers along the approach corridor to Runway 23 you should watch out for. The runway does have edge lighting, although the windsock is not lit at night and daytime VFR is still recommended. There are no services for transient craft at this airfield. Since you will be landing on terrain, it is recommended that your mesh complexity is set as high as possible.

| Coombs Airport (7NJ7), NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 04 miles NE of Elmer, New Jersey, Coombs Airport is a private turf field 2000' in length wilth clear 20:1 approach and departure at each end of the runway. You'll find some surrounding buildings but they are all located several hundred yards from the runway. This is a good strip to keep in mind for emergencies if you're in the area. You will be landing on terrain so having your mesh complexity set as high as possible is recommended. This airport is not lit at night, daytime VFR operations only are suggested. There are no transient services offered.

| Dave's Aerodrome Airport (7NJ9), NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 01 miles SW of Cedarville, New Jersey on 43 acres of land, Dave's Aerodrome Airport is a private turf field 2000' with a 600' displaced threshold on Runway 12. Each runway has a clear 20:1 approach slope, but in the case of Runway 12 be sure to aim for a landing past the hangar! There are power lines running along the road at the runway threshold that are not just there for decoration - come in too low and FSX will register a crash. In real life they have red balls on them - unfortunately I have no way of adding those in the sim at this time. So be on the lookout while on approach. Also take note that it is a right pattern for Runway 12 and a left pattern for Runway 30. The windsock is located next to the hangar and is not lit. There are no lights at this airport so daytime VFR operations only are suggested. No services are offered for transient aircraft. There is no hard-surfaced runway, you will be landing on bare terrain so set your mesh complexity slider as high as it will go for the best effect.

| Strawberry Fields Airport (89NJ), NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 02 miles N of Mays Landing, New Jersey on 220 acres of land, Strawberry Fields Airport is a private turf/sand strip. SkyVector lists the runway as 2200' long, but as measured during development it is closer to 3000'. In addition to Runways 14 and 32, there is a second runway that is not listed in the airport directory and presumed closed. However if you need it in an emergency the numbers are 03 and 21 (no starts are available for these runways). This airport is not lit and is best used only during daytime VFR conditions. The windsock can be found at the intersection of the two runways and is also not lit. You will be landing on bare terrain so have your mesh complexity slider set as high as possible for best effect.

| Correction of Taxiway signs for Aerosoft's Mega Airport Frankfurt (EDDF) according to new ground layout 2010 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
In 2010 Fraport introduced alphanumerical taxiway designators for EDDF.
Hence almost all taxiway signs needed to be modified.
Unfortunately the present Aerosoft scenery does not reflect this change.
The BGL included allows you to update your MAF scenery to the current state.
This addon of course does not contain the Aerosoft scenery itself!

| KTPA Tampa International (redux) - xwind |
|
File Description:
FlyTampa-Tampa (redux) xwind AFCAD.
This modified AFCAD for the fantastic Tampa airport scenery (redux), by the talented folks at FlyTampa, opens the airport for xwind operations and effectively makes runway 9/27 available. The main runways (18R/36L and 18L/36R) are now used predominantly by airline traffic while GA mostly makes use of 9/27. This is quite convenient because of parking locations, but more importantly reduces go arounds and long hold short waits (or annoying disappearances). This is my first upload to the AVSIM library; hope you'll like it.

| Hammonton Municipal Airport (N81) NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 03 miles NE of Hammonton, New Jersey on 107 acres of land, Hammonton Municipal Airport is a public asphalt strip 3601' in length. It has recently been renovated with all-new taxiways and aprons and this update is depicted in this version with the big change being the extension of the main apron to join the previously-separated north and south tarmacs. The airport's magnetic variation, traffic pattern height, and PAPI glide slope and location have also all been accurately adjusted. All tie down parking locations are located on either the North or South tarmacs. Parking spots marked as RAMP_GA are occupied by static aircraft/objects and should not be chosen to start in (although all static objects have collision disabled). North parking spots can accommodate wingspans up to 50' while South parking spots should only be used by aircraft with wingspans of 40' or less. The one DOCK_GA location in the hangar start that can accommodate aircraft with wingspans up to 45'. The helicopter start location will place you on the North tarmac in front of the main hangar. Fuel is available by stopping on the concrete area on the North tarmac or by the fuel truck on the South tarmac in front of the hangars. Please see the ReadMe for known issues regarding AI aircraft parking.
