| SKMD Medellin/Enrique Olaya Herrera, Colombia |
|
File Description:
Googly scenery for Medellin/Enrique Olaya Herrera (ICAO: SKMD, IATA: EOH). This
centrally located airport, named after the 1930 president of Colombia, was once
the only airport for the city of Medellin but most international flights are now
concentrated on the new international airport inconveniently situated 24 miles
away. Nevertheless the airport is very busy with domestic, charter and private
traffic and is regularly served by scheduled services of AerolĂnea de Antioquia,
AIRES, Easyfly and SATENA. There are many charter operators based or serving
serving this airport, including Aexpa, Heliandes, Sarpa, Helicol and TAC; these
are mostly smaller aircraft or helicopter operations.
Remarkably for such an important airport, Microsoft have only provided a runway
at this airport in Flight Simulator 2004 and this scenery seeks to redress the
situation so that you and your "AI" traffic can use the airport realistically.
The scenery does not purport to be ultra-accurate. Based on high quality
satellite imagery from Google Earth, the layout is proportionally correct but the
added airport features, such as buildings, are built from default Microsoft objects
and add-on libraries so will not look exactly like the real thing.
You are not obliged to download and install any additional scenery libraries,
but to enjoy this scenery in its entirety, you may wish to. It will work fine,
with or without.

File Description:
Googly scenery for MRAO Turtuguero, Costa Rica - another one that Microsoft
forgot in FS2004. It is a small domestic airport located on a long spit of
land that almost seems like an island. Turtuguero is just a village but the
airport also serves the lush Tortuguero National Park (rain falls all the
year round here) which draws thousands of visitors each year. The airport
is served daily by DHC-6 Twin Otters of Nature Air.
These scenery files create the airport and add taxiways, aprons, buildings and other airport features, so that you and your "AI" traffic can land, taxi, park and take
off in a realistic manner.The scenery does not purport to be ultra-accurate. Based on less-than-perfect satellite imagery from Google Earth, the layout is as good as I can get it, but some imagination has been used as I cannot tell what buildings exist. The
buildings and other features I have provided are built from default Microsoft
objects and add-on libraries so will not look exactly like the real thing.
You are not obliged to download and install any additional scenery libraries,
but to enjoy this scenery in its entirety, you may wish to. It will work fine,
with or without. [File re-uploaded at request of AVSIM]

| HLLQ El Beida/Labraq |
|

File Description:
Googly scenery for HLLQ El Beida/Labraq - a joint civilian and military airport
near the north coast of Libya that is poorly provided for in Flight Simulator
2004. These scenery files add taxiways, aprons, buildings and other airport
features, so that you and your "AI" traffic can land, taxi, park and take off
in a realistic manner.
The city of Al Beida, or Al Bayda' or El Beda or Al Baidhah (depending on who
you are) has achieved its own airport status by using the end of a dead runway
at Labraq Air Base. In turn the airbase has contracted to use the opposite end
of the runway as its base of activity. The city is served by jets of Libyan
Airways and turboprop craft of Air One Nine and Ghadames Air Transport.
The scenery does not purport to be ultra-accurate. Based on high-detail satellite
imagery from Google Earth, the layout is proportionally correct but the added
airport features, such as buildings, are built from default Microsoft objects
and add-on libraries so will not look like the real thing.

| PASN St Paul Island in Alaska |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is St Paul Island airport, plus the town and the harbour which has featured alongside Dutch Harbor in the tv series Deadliest Catch.
St Paul is in the Pribilof group of five islands around 250 miles north of Dutch Harbour. The town has a population of less than 600, so a lot smaller than Dutch Harbour and with only one processing plant, Trident.
The Ai includes a PenAir flight, a Coast Guard C-130, and Coast Guard helicopters; sea AI includes a fishing boat and a Coast Guard cutter. The Coast Guard C-130 and helicopter flights are to Dutch Harbor, so both sceneries are required to make it work as it should. The airport has 6,500 feet of 150 feet wide asphalt with 1,000 feet of over-run at each end, aligned 36/18, lit, and with two aprons at the southern end. There is no hangerage except for Coast Guard helicopters. Runway 36 has at its northern end a hill.
In real life the runway slopes up to the north by over 60 feet, but in FS9 it doesn't; hence the change in airport elevation to 80 feet ASL to get the northern end at least partly out of a box canyon. There is fuel available and it is dispensed from a truck, there are no pumps.

| Mountain View CPZ3 in Ontario, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is Mountain View, a small RCAF airfield at the eastern end of Lake Ontario on Prince Edward Island, some 40 miles west of Kingston. Mountain View is used for training during the summer months, and part of this training is for C-130 crews, who practice landing on rough or unprepared landing strips. The crews are based at Trenton, which is a large base 10 miles to the northwest on the mainland. There are (or were, I haven't seen it recently) numerous parked and ancient fighter planes such T-33's and Canadair Tutors; these could also have possibly been used for summer training or perhaps were just stored. Last summer there were only two hangars left standing; in 2002 there were five. In real life you would be on the lookout not only for C-130's but also (at certain times during the summer) for parachutists and also gliders. This airfield is one that you will fly over and not land on; I confess that I have cheated with the length of the 06L-24R gravel "practice" runway, so that it became possible for the FS version of a touch-n-go with a C-130 to be completed without using the grass. The aerial photograph shows the new "practice" gravel runway under construction.

| Alaska South Slope 3; Kiana PAIK |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
The town of Kotzebue is in the far northwest of Alaska, and served by Alaska Airlines. These are villages to the (mostly) east of Kotzebue on the South Slope of the Brooks Range of mountains, served by local flights from Kotzebue. There will be further additions. Kiana is a small village (population now around 360) on the bank of the Kobuk River, around 60 miles east of Kotzebue. The airfield, called Baker Memorial, is just north of the village, with 4,000 feet of lit gravel aligned 06-24 (as are several other runways in the area) with PAPI on 24. There are scheduled flights by Era (now renamed Ravn) and by Bering Air, both of them originating in Kotzebue and routing east to Noorvik, Kiana, Ambler, Shungnak, Kobuk, and then back again. The AI includes these flights along with Everts Air and Northern Air Cargo flights and GA. In real life the runway is around 200 yards closer to the village; this complicated the removal of roads and revised ground textures so I left it as is to make my life easier. The post includes missing night textures that were omitted from the post of Noatak PAWN. Noatak also has incorrectly installed original FS9 taxiway lights that were, as a result, impossible to remove. I had hoped to somehow manage it, but there is no way.

| Ontario Small Fields in Canada: #05 Pelee Island (CYPT) |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is the fifth in a series of small airfields in southern Ontario Canada, Pelee Island CYPT, an airfield on the island in Lake Erie and the southernmost airfield in Canada. The airfield has an asphalt runway of 3,300 feet, aligned 09/27 in FS9 while today in real life it is 10/28 due to the wandering magnetic pole. There is also a second runway, 36/18 and around 1,500 feet of gravel. There is a small terminal building which now has blue cladding; here it is still in the dirty yellow of the original colour scheme.
This version is based upon what appears to be a "lost" 2005 scenery of Pelee Island. When I started to make Pelee Island I discovered that in fact I already had a version installed; my memory can be excused, as I installed it in 2005. I modified the scenery to include parking, taxiways that connected, revised runway markings, new windsocks, new signage, larger apron, parked cars and planes, revised landclass, AI, etc. My intention was to instruct you to download and install the original and then incorporate my changes. Problem: it does not appear to exist for download; perhaps it was washed away when the Avsim site crashed. I have included it in this post. If anyone knows who made it please let me know.

| Hazyview Airfield, Hazyview, South Africa |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Hazyview is one of the gateway towns to the Kruger National Park and is located just to the West of Phabeni Gate, one of the main gates to use if you are travelling to Skukuza. The airfield in Hazyview is also called Numbi Airfield due to the location of the Numbi Hotel right next to the airfield.
Hazyview airfield is not included in the default scenery of FS2004. With this package, it has been faithfully produced in Gmax with photoreal textures on all the buildings and a photoreal ground as well. Even the Lowveld mall to the North of the airfield and right on the approach to Rwy 19 as well as the Building supplies store to the south and on approach to Rwy 01 is inlcuded with custom models and textures. Likewise, the buildings to the West of the runway (right at the edge of the runway) and the brickyard at the Northern end is modeled with custom models and textures. The two large cellphone antennas are also present in the airport scenery and custom made.
In real life, the runway is quite sloped and this was also recreated in the scenery under the limitations FS2004 presents with regards to non-flat airports.
The grass runway is aligned 01/19 and only 820m long. Take-off is on Rwy 01, with landings on Rwy 19.

| VAOZ Nashik/Ozar, India |
|
File Description:
Googly scenery for Ozar, a small domestic airport located in Nashik (or
Nasik), 111 miles from Mumbai (Bombay). Nashik is a fast-expanding city in
the Maharashtra state in the Western Ghats located on the western edge of the Deccan
peninsula and is known as the Wine Capital of India or Grape City.
Owing to its close proximity to Mumbai, the airport has not proved popular as
the journey by taxi, bus or rail is not much greater after taking into account
check-in times etc. Air Deccan recently withdrew all flights from Ozar and as
far as I can establish the only airline now serving Ozar is Jagson Airlines,
using Dornier 228 turboprops. There is also a military presence at the east
end of the airport.
Flight Simulator 2004 has only provided a runway at this airport and this scenery
seeks to redress the situation so that you and your "AI" traffic can use the
airport.
The scenery does not purport to be ultra-accurate. Based on high quality
satellite imagery from Google Earth, the layout is proportionally correct but the
added airport features, such as buildings, are built from default Microsoft objects
and add-on libraries so will not look exactly like the real thing.
You are not obliged to download and install any additional scenery libraries,
but to enjoy this scenery in its entirety, you may wish to. It will work fine,
with or without.

| EVVA Ventspils International, Latvia |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Googly scenery for Ventspils International - Latvia's third largest commercial airport
(try not to laugh!) although no facilities other than a runway are provided in Flight
Simulator 2004. These scenery files add taxiways, aprons, buildings and other airport
features, so that you and your "AI" traffic can land, taxi, park and take off in a
realistic manner.
The airport serves the city of Ventspils in northwest Latvia and opened as recently
as 1975. Owing to changes in the political situation, operations ceased in 1983 but
it re-opened in 2000. At present, it is unclear which operators serve the airport
- Air Baltic is the claimed contender but there is no evidence in their advertised
schedules. It is believed that occasional flights are operated to St Petersburg and
Moscow by Russian operators but information is hard to come by. Nevertheless, the
airport's own web site (http://www.airport.ventspils.lv/) has figures showing the
increasing numbers of passengers passing through the airport, so something must
call here! The airport also sees a respectable amount of General Aviation activity
and AVGAS has recently been made available.
The scenery does not purport to be ultra-accurate. Based on high-detail satellite
imagery from Google Earth, the layout is proportionally correct but the added
airport features, such as buildings, are built from default Microsoft objects
and add-on libraries so will not look like the real thing. [File re-uploaded at request of AVSIM]
