File Description:
We've produced this scenery to provide taxiways, buildings and details as they
were around 1960 for airports with airline service in Africa. We've added custom GMAX or Sketchup terminals for the major airports, usually
with many other details included. We've added a library object terminal and
details to virtually every African airport that was served by an airline in the early 1960's. We have been working on this project for 13 months, and there are 105 airports/fields. All have scenery - some very sparse, others full of action. All airports have flags, lighting, windsocks, and rotating beacons. If possible, the airports are placed accurately with maps2bgl as reference.

| YPDN 1960 Darwin Intl. |
|
File Description:
In 1919 when the England to Australia air race was announced,
Darwin Airport was established in the suburb of Parap
to act as the Australian Terminal. It operated as two airports,
a civilian airport and a military field.
In 1945 the Department of Aviation made the existing
Darwin military airfield available for civil aviation purpose.
As a result, the civilian airport at Parap was closed down
and airport operations combined with the military airport.
Between 1950 and 1974 Darwin Airport acted as the primary
domestic and international airport for the Northern Territory
and a very important stop for airlines such as Qantas.

File Description:
Denver (KDEN), Colorado, Photo-Scenery for FS9 & FSX.
This package covers Denver, the capital of Colorado which is also nicknamed Mile-High City because its elevation is one mile (5.280 ft). The sixth RW (16R/34L) of Denver Int'l. Airport (KDEN) is the longest commercial RW in the US with a length of 16.000ft. This allows fully loaded B747's to take off in Denvers mile-high altitude during hot summer days, when density altitudes can approach 9.000(!) ft.
KDEN is a major hub for United Airlines and the headquarters for Frontier Airlines. The airports distinctive white tent-like fabric roof is designed to be reminiscent of the snow-covered peaks of the Rocky Mountains which you can see on approach or departure.
Other important airports covered by this region are Centennial Airport (KAPA), Buckley AFB (KBKF) and Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport (KBJC). Extends my Mt.Evans/Georgetown package to the east and provides another 3.500 sq km in 4.7m/pix quality.
High resolution versions for FS9 and FSX (much sharper, but larger and multiple downloads) are available at www.blueskyscenery.com/GNB_SouthEast.html
. The screenies are taken from the high-res versions, so expect this version to be slightly more blurry. YourDonation@Work: Dedicated to Mark and Charles. Thanks!
