File Description:
A custom made Marble Hall Airfield (FAMI), Limpopo, South Africa with photoreal textures and photoreal ground.
The small airfield has been recreated with custom true to life models and photoreal textures. Some of the buildings on the approach to rwy 22 (and even the road-signs) have been modelled with custom true to life models with photoreal textures and the marble works next to the airfield is also included with custom models and custom textures. The airfield is mostly used by cropdusters and as an added bonus, two static cropdusters are included with the kind permission of their respective developers (a Piper PA-25 Pawnee by Andy Strukowsi and a Turbo Thrush by Marcel du Plessis). Both planes are flyable aircraft (see download details in Readme file) which were converted to static aircraft models by myself.
The paved runway is aligned 04/22 and 1 000m long and sits at an elevation of 3 000ft.

| Columbus Stainless Steel Factory and Airfield, Middelburg, South Africa |

File Description:
A custom made Columbus Stainless-steel Factory and its airfield, Middelburg Mall and Afgri Silo's in the town of Middelburg. The airfield is not in use anymore in real life, but this package will bring it back to life in the simulator. The Columbus stainless-steel factory is the biggest stainless-steel factory on the African continent and is situated south of the town of Middelburg, right off the N4 highway. Co-incedentally, it is also adjacent to the site of the original Middelburg airfield (included in this package) and east of the suburb of Aerorand (named as such because of the location of the original airfield right next to it) which is also where the newly built Middelburg Mall is located.
This is a nice addition to my Middelburg (FAMB) scenery (worx50.zip).

| Graskop Airfield, South Africa |

File Description:
Graskop Airfield does not appear in the default FS2004, neither is the town included which is a pity as the airfield lies right on the edge of a gorge where bungee jumping and even a Gorge-lift (elevator) or a slide across the gorge can be enjoyed by the adrenaline junkies. Added to this, the airfield (and town of Graskop) is merely 10km from the world famous God's Window (also featured in the film, "The Gods must be Crazy").
This package will add a custom (Gmax & Sketchup) made Graskop Airfield, Mpumalanga, South Africa with photoreal textures and ground textures. The included Landclass file will also add the town.
The small airfield has been recreated with custom true to life models and photoreal textures. While being a very small airfield with only one hangar and a large antenna tower, the importance of the airfield far outweighs its size. The airfield plays a vital role in the fight against wildfires as there are water bombers based at the airfield during critical times. In real life the runway is quite challenging, being sloped quite significantly and very narrow, with a one-way-in one-way-out landing and takeoff procedure. Due to the limits within flightsim, the slope could not be replicated but all the other challenges are there.
The asphalt runway is aligned 15/33 and only 800m long by 8.5m wide and sits at an elevation of 4 854ft.

| South African Lighthouses |

File Description:
This file will add 21 real life lighthouses to the coastline of South Africa. All the lighthouses are placed using real world coordinates and their focal planes are at the correct height. Only default objects are used so no other files are needed. Thank you to Bruce Kennewell for giving me his kind permission to follow his idea.

File Description:
This package will add a custom (Gmax) made Howick Airfield (FAHC), KwaZulu Natal, South Africa with photoreal textures and seasonal ground textures.
Howick is a small town in the KwaZulu Natal Midlands just off the N3 freeway which connects Johannesburg and Durban and home to the famous Howick waterfall. The Umgeni river falls 95m (311 ft) over the cliffs on the way to the Indian Ocean. The town is also home to the Midmar dam. This dam is very well known as being the location of the annual Midmar Mile swimming event which, in 2009, was recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's largest open water swimming event with 13 755 competitors taking part.
The sloped grass runway is aligned 16/34 and 825m long and sits at an elevation of 3 615ft. Both runways have obstacles on the approach, with powerlines 730m from the threshold of runway 16, while runway 34's approach have hills around 900m before the threshold. The sloped runway has been created in FS2004 within the limits of the simulator itself.

File Description:
Have you ever visited the "Hangar Cafe"? Great place to have a meal and get lost in conversation with fellow aviators and aviation lovers.
McKenzie Airfield does not appear in the default FS2004, neither is the town of Richmond included. This package will add a custom (Gmax) made McKenzie Airfield (AWK5), Richmond, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa with photoreal textures and ground textures. The included Landclass file will also add the town.
The small airfield as well as the adjacent McKenzie Plant-hire yard, has been recreated with custom true to life models and photoreal textures. McKenzie airfield is also home to the "Hangar Cafe" and an ex-SAAF Bosbok. The runway is not too challenging, just keep the aircraft in the middle and away from the trees right next to the runway. All the electrical high-wires have also been included in the scenery as it plays a prominent role in the look and feel of the airfield as has the flower beds.
The grass runway is aligned 11/29 and only 800m long.
