File Description:
This project adds and updates all of the airports of Bhutan. Bathpalathang (VQBT) and Gelephu (VQGP) are added, Yongphulla (VQ10) is updated and recoded as VQTY, and Paro (VQPR) is fully updated to reflect current satellite imagery. These are all fully functioning AI airports as well. Special attention was given to the entire Paro Valley, and numerous road/river vectors were updated around Gelephu. Accurate coastlines, lakes, road and river data, as well as corrected landclass are provided based on the latest available satellite imagery. They are optimized to fit seamlessly with FTX Vector's roads/water, but they should be fully functional in all FSX configurations.
GA-encoded flight plans for the Buddha Air/Kathmandu charter are provided to enhance service to Paro. NASA SRTM Global 3 arc second terrain mesh is also included for all of Bhutan. Updates were created or rebuilt in a manner which carefully aligned airport data with current satellite imagery, when available. Scenery was created using Airport Design Editor X v1.61.5298, SBuilderX 3.13, and the FSX Object Placement Tool. Scenery objects were added and modified from stock FSX scenery to resemble as closely as possible the actual airports.

Hawaiian Airports Part 3
This scenery features the airports at Princeville, Port Allen, Waimea and Upolu. HI01-Princeville and PAK-Port Allen are located on the island of Kauai, the film location made famous by Stephen Spielberg's blockbuster, Jurassic Park. PHMU-Waimea and PHUP-Upolu are located in the North West of Hawaii, also known as the Big Island. All runways, aprons, taxiways and buildings have been repositioned to their correct locations, and the scenery has been recreated based on photos of the real airports. The scenery features many animated objects including people, aircraft, animals, waves, cars, trucks and many more. Full night textures with light maps are included.
All the scenery files have been sub-divided so they can be switched on or off according to user preference and hardware configuration. It has been designed for, and tested in DX9 and FSXA only. The airports include sloped flattens so they can also be used with high density mesh. This file also includes updates for Hawaiian Airports Part 2. Please enjoy, and I hope you like my scenery as much as I enjoyed building it.

| Airstrips of South-West France |
|
File Description:
Part two of my "Airstrips of Western Europe" project, these 90+ sceneries are mostly default basic airstrips from FS2004, enhanced with taxiways, parking spaces and aprons as appropriate, to facilitate the activation of lightweight GA AI traffic, primarily over the south-west of France. Hopefully these will allow a degree of continuity between my previous upload (Airstrips of North-West Europe) and the existing freeware releases for Spain and Portugal.
Again, there's no photo-realism here, just a selection of basic 'generic' buildings, more or less accurately sized and placed to reflect the airfield layout as seen on on-line satellite imagery and aerial photography. These buildings have minimal effect on frame-rates, so are ideal for this kind of job. The airfields are aligned as well as possible with the roads etc. in UT Europe and the Genesis Europe mesh, but should mostly be fine in a default installation or other configuration.
A good number of airfields in this area have been neatly implemented in the "Occitania_VFR" package, so I've not duplicated their work.
Also included are some "bonus" sceneries from further north that weren't included in my previous upload. Just copy them over as appropriate if required.

| 2016 Kigali Intl (HRYR) Rwanda |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This sequel to the 2009 Kigali Intl (HRYR) Rwanda scenery (by Jacques Botha and Frits Beyer) brings it up to date with the current layout and enables full compliance with FTX Global/Vector and FSX. Buildings are added and adjusted to their real-world locations, and the new taxiway and south apron are added according to the May 2016 satellite imagery. In addition to real-world gate locations, custom apron markings are added along with apron lighting. The landclass around Kigali is also updated, and SRTMGL1 (30m) mesh is included. This scenery can be complemented by the Goma (FZNA) and Gisenyi (HRYG) scenery (FSX_FZNA-HRYG_CS.zip), and GA flightplans are included to supplement the commercial traffic at Kigali and provide more activity at FZNA and HRYG.
Updates were created or rebuilt in a manner which carefully aligns airport data with current satellite imagery. Scenery was created using Airport Design Editor X v1.70.6042, SBuilderX 3.13, and the FSX Object Placement Tool. Scenery objects were added and modified from stock FSX scenery to resemble as closely as possible the actual airports. The FSX apron lights included are from the set created by Jim Dhaenens.

| Airstrips of Switzerland |

File Description:
Just a small collection of of ai-enabled airfields, that don't appear to have been implemented by other authors, to further expand my Airstrips of Europe project.
Again, there's no photo-realism here, just a selection of basic 'generic' buildings, more or less accurately sized and placed to reflect the airfield layout as seen on on-line satellite imagery and aerial photography. These buildings have minimal effect on frame-rates, so are ideal for this kind of job. The airfields are aligned as well as possible with the roads etc. in UT Europe and the Genesis Europe mesh, but should mostly be fine in a default installation or other configuration. As before, the files for each airfield can be easily identified by the ICAO code, even if the airfield names vary slightly, so you can pick and choose and mix and match to suit any sceneries you already have, should you so wish. There is no requirement for any other download. Each airfield will exist as a stand-alone entity should you only want a few of them. Please read the rest of this "blurb" in the included text file. There may be some details of note or interest.

| Herr Mountain Airport (5NJ2), NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 02 miles N of Stanton, New Jersey, Herr Mountain Airport is a private turf strip. No aircraft are based here, so don't expect much except for ample room to land and take off again. There is a residence on the property, but no hangar or storage facilities. The runway is 2800x100 feet so not too hard to arrive and depart from. Approaching Runway 25 can be a slight challenge given that you need to level off your descent to cross over a mountain top before diving in to land. There is no hard surface runway, so you will be landing on terrain - be gentle! It's recommended to have your mesh complexity set as high as possible to get the full effect. The runway is not lit so daytime VFR operations only are allowed at this airport.
Scenery constructed with use of satellite images/streetview/aerial photos - the author has not been there in person.
This scenery is meant to be used in conjunction with MegaScenery Earth New Jersey/Delaware 001. 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.

| Thomas Browne Airpark Airport (61NJ), NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 02 miles W of Glassboro, New Jersey, Thomas Browne Airpark Airport is a private turf strip 2000��80 feet. There is no hard-surfaced runway, which means you will be landing on terrain so it is recommended you set your mesh resolution as high as possible. Watch out for trees and buildings alongside and at opposite ends of the runway. Crop fields are planted to the south of the runway and border the runway. You won't crash if you run into them but it certainly won't put you in good favor with the field owners! Take caution to avoid the transmission line towers as they are not lit at night! Neither is the runway, for that matter, so daytime VFR operations only are recommended for this airfield.

| 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.

| Crosswind Runways for California Central Coast Scenery for FSX with CCFSXMSG.ZIP or CCFSXMS.ZIP Installed |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This scenery contains several revised files for my previously uploaded California Central Coast sceneries CCFSXMSG.ZIP and CCFSXMS.ZIP. These are the versions of my CCC scenery for FSX with MegaScenery Earth. The "G" version also requires Genesis Terrain Mesh but is the most complete version. Included here are revised AFCAD files for the major airports in those sceneries which will add interesting crosswind capability to C80, PRB, SBP, SMX and SBA airports. Additionaly, revised AFCAD and associated files for IZA, LPC, L52 and VBG are included. In some cases ground traffic has been added, a few glitches repaired and minor improvements effected. The crosswind AFCAD's for the 5 airports with tangential or crossing runways were revised using the technique developed by Jim Vile and executed by Airport Design Editor (ADEX). This procedure will unavoidably bolix up the ATIS runway advisories at the 3 tower controlled airports with ATIS (SBA, SBP and SMX) but will make all of the runways useable for AI traffic depending on wind conditions. This is not a problem at C80 and PRB since they are uncontrolled fields and have no ATIS available. Therefore, I've included revised AFCADs for SBA, SBP and SMX that do not have crosswind provisions that can be substituted if desired.

| Halka Nurseries Airport (9NJ6), NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 02 miles W of Fairton, New Jersey on 150 acres of land, Halka Nurseries Airport is a private turf strip 2400' in length. The airspace has been analyzed and deemed suitable for aircraft up to a light twin. Take caution on the Runway 18 approach as power lines are strung up along the street opposite the runway. There is no hard surfaced runway so have your terrain mesh set as high as possible to experience bumpy terrain. There is no windsock, so be sure to know your weather before arriving or departing - the winds in this area are predominantly out of the west and this runway is north/south. Trees and bushes are close to some areas of the runway and can pose a danger in high crosswinds. There are no services for transient aircraft.
