Known bugs / stuff left to do:

1. There's a cloud shadow near the threshold of RWY 02. It's not a show-stopper though.
2. Hedgerows need to be adjusted with new textures and adjust tree shapes/sizes to make it look more like hedgerows.

Misc:

This is my first attempt ever in Feb 2012 at:
- Making an Airport
- Using GeoTIFFs
- Making a Draped Polygon
- Using any of the X-Plane scenery tools
- Using OpensceneryX

Thanks:

1. This was completely done in WED v1.3 for MacOSX - Thanks to Ben Supnik and various details on his blog regarding scenery optimization.
2. GraphicConverter. Great software for batch ortho conversions and alpha blending. Pretty much all my gfx work was done with it.
3. All the previous threads in the Scenery Development forum on x-plane.org, which I found 99% of my answers to. The [sEARCH] button is your friend.
4. Carlos Garcia for pointing me in the right direction for the grass forest files from capnsully/Simmo W
5. Support from the community in general.

This scenery is Pieware - Meaning that if you like it, you are obligated to send us some kind of edible bakeware in pastry-and-filling format.
We especially like Blueberry Pie, but will settle for Apple, Strawberry Rhubarb, or possibly Lemon Meringue.
