| Sorted POI global cities and airports pack for FSDiscover! |
|
File Description:
README:
FSDiscover! Global Point of Interest pack.
Here is a poi pack of roughly 147 000 cities, 40 000 small airports,
1 177 seaplane bases, 4695 medium airports and 475 of the largest
airports.
Airports are split up in categories, small, medium, big, seaplane base.
Cities are split up into files of 10 000 cities each by size.
There are 15 files for cities.
The smallest cities are in xaa, xab, xac, xad, and so on.
The biggest cities are in xam, xan, until xao.
You should open the files in notepad to see for yourself which city
files to activate in FSDiscover! to balance clutter and detail.
This has been my main problem with the default populated places list;
there is no way to sort by population size
Compared to the default FSDiscover! populated places here are some
notes:
I have noticed that in the default FSDiscover! set for europe and many
other places, the coordinates are placed like on a "honeycomb" grid
which obviously is not very precise. In general, in terms of city map
precision, this pack should be better.
In the default pack, in an area I am familiar with, a city was placed on the other side of
a river compared to reality. In many other areas, you can clearly see
that the cities are not well-aligned with Ultimate Terrain europe or
even some places in UT USA. My theory is that either data was not super
precise for europe to begin with or that the dataset has been arranged
in the honeycomb grid fashion perhaps to reduce clutter or something.
Mostly though, the default populated places FSDiscover! file is very
useful for really small villages since these tend to be forgotten in
other datasets. The problems come when you want to filter out smaller
villages or airports. This is where this pack comes in handy.
Since no data is perfect, you can use this pack alone or in
combination with the FSDiscover! defaults. Personally, I put the same
files in both "Documents/FSDiscover Files" and
"Program Files/FSDiscover" so I can pick and choose a useful combo
from relevant sets inside the options.
Personally, I prefer the cities from this pack and the rest
(mountains, rivers etc.) from the default FSDiscover! pack.
INSTALLATION:
Just unzip the archived files into "C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Documents\FSDiscover Files"
or "C:\Program Files (x86)\FSDiscover!\geodata" or both!
I do not know if the geodata folder is completely overwritten some
times or not so keep that in mind. (probably safe, though)

File Description:
Built with ADE with satellite aligning. Reqiures EZ scenery library: https://www.flightsim.com/files/file/143843-fs2004-ez-scenery-librarys-exe/.
This is the first airport in this series, focusing on old airports in China that now only lives in memory. Nanjing Dajiaochang Airport (NKG/Z08T) was an airport that served Nanjing, the capital of East China's Jiangsu province. It is located 6.2 kilometres (3.9 mi) south of Xinjiekou, the center of Nanjing, and is surrounded on three sides by the Qinhuai River. Opened in 1934, it was an important Chinese airbase during WWII. Civil aviation moved to the new Lukou International Airport in 1997, and then the airforce moved out in 2015 when Dajiaochang finally closed.

These are some ficticious FPs,(only the destinations and days are real, since they do not give any departure times in their site. For the use of the existing freeware repaint abaeti_emb-110.zip (avsim)
AFCAD modifications of the default airports for SBSV,SBLP,SNBR,SNGI,(ficticious) + callsign (ficticious ,but possible).
In order of the airports to be shown correctly, you will need the freeware SRTM Terrain Mesh of South America by Andy Weir (avsim)- Files: sa11.zip, sa14.zip,\ & sa17.zip

| Official Water Aerodromes located in Province of Quebec territory. |
|
File Description:
These are AFCAD2 Scenery files for most popular and visited waterbases located in the province of Quebec, Canada. Your Ai floatplanes will come alive with these "invisible" waterbases airports installed (AI traffic flightplans required.) and your flyable floatplanes will be allowed to take-off directly into water, at official water aerodromes, using FS9 airports menu. Thanks to Holger Sandmann who has developped this technique. Must be used with Gilles Gauthier's "Terrain Mesh Province of Quebec" for FS2004 and his excellent "Quebec Sceneries Enchancements".

| Vieques & Fajardo |
|
File Description:
here is my scenery of Vieques (tjvq) and Fajardo (tjfa) airports. It's a simple configuration adding a terminal building and ADF frequencies. in Vieques i also flatten the ground so the airport in not in a "canyon"
to create a more relistic feel. i also will include the new afcads for these airports , the have a tower frequency so you can create AI traffic
on them. i have released repaints of the local airlines (vieques air link) and also have Isla Nena livery.
