  1. I took the aircraft on a flight of 248nm from Tsay Keh airport to Quesnel airport in Canada, and it behaved normally. Checked the maintenance manager after shutdown and everything was green. Thanks to all who donated their help. I have to say this is a very impressive aircraft with all of its features. Well done for all of those individuals who worked on it. It was neat when I got an announcement that my VNAV was soon to engage, not too mention it functioned quite well, when it did. The synthetic vision is really cool, as well. Bravo.

    This is my version of the Honolulu Intl. Airport (PHNL) on the Island of O'ahu, Hi. Even though it's not completely finished yet, I felt like sharing my progress with the community to enjoy. All in all it's a pretty accurate depiction of the airport using the Lego-Brick method with focus on the civilian part of the airport. All civilian terminals are modeled (Diamond Head, Central, EWA & Inter Island concourses) as well as the freight apron and the GA area in the South East. Special attention has been payed to taxi/apron markings which contribute nicely to the overall appearance. I plan to improve the package in future updates and include a more detailed Hickam AFB. This package works great with X-Aviation's RS Enhanced: Island of Oahu, HD Mesh V3 and X-Plane 10's default scenery. And last but definitely not least, I want to thank all authors for contributing their incredible work to the community and letting me use it for this scenery. Thank you very much!!! Features: Orthoimages from Pearl Harbor to Waikiki Main Concourses - Diamond Head, Central, EWA, Inter Island & GO Freight apron - main freight apron near the GA area in the East & small freight apron for Aloha Cargo west of the EWA concourse GA area - located in the south-east of the airport close to RWY4R with Hangars and marked tarmack tie downs Air National Guard - Ramp starts and shelters for fighter A/C in the far west of the airport F/A-22 Scramble post- located close to RWY8L Populated Gates - Gate are full with service vehicles and ramp equipment Autogate and DGSs - Marginal's awesome Autogate plugin has been used extensively to improve immersion HDR lights - nice lighting at night in the right places Highly accurate Taxiway-layout based on the ortho-imagery of RS Enhanced: Island of Oahu Highly accurate RWY/Taxi/Apron markings - including Gate Numbers, taxi restrictions, RWY & ILS holds as well as service roads Many ramp start locations - either for you to choose or for AI A/C to populate AI-Taxi-network - AI A/C taxi correctly along the specified taxiways Airport Flows - user and AI A/C will be assigned by ATC to the most appropriate RWY depending on wind conditions. (I'll try to include time rules as well to enable noise abatement during the night---> 4R & 8R for LDG) Test-features: High-rise buildings in Waikiki - I added a few skyscrapers to improve/create the skyline you normally see when departing eastbound Marina close to Honolulu Harbor - inspired by VogoonZarniwoop's "Friday Harbor Boats" package I added this to populate the airport surroundings If you like the Test-feature, tell me in the comments and I'll improve them in the next release.

Now this package includes a wonderful Boeing B717 in Hawaiian's beautiful Pualani livery. All credit goes to Skycycle for granting permission to convert and use his model. Please ask for his permission, if you plan to use this object in your scenery package. Furthermore, I'd like to ask the community to create static A/C in Hawaiian Airlines liveries and post them here. Especially nice models of a B767 and an A330-200 would be very appreciated. Have fun!!!

    Nothing special here - just a quick'n'dirty heliport (only the helipads, no taxiways, no custom buildings) in Cape Town, where I had the treat of a (real) sightseeing flight around the Cape Peninsula in November 2013. I did this "scenery" (primarily) for myself - and for those who want to do virtual sightseeing flights in Capetown from the original location. There are 4 or 5 heli charter companies operating there. In reality there is no ICAO code for it, so I created FACH (CH = Cape Town Heliport). As I meanwhile found out, there is an ICAO code FACH (Cookhouse Airport), which is not in X-Plane. Thus, I had to change the ICAO code for the Heliport to FAC1.

    My second scenery, I decided to tackle something bigger than my previous 8G6, and it proved to be quite a fun challenge! Now that I have another airport under my belt, I am one step closer to my main goals, KLCK and KCMH. Please forgive me if I made a mistake somewhere, and dont hesitate to leave a comment or shoot me a PM so that I can fix it! For now though this airport is 100% done and I do not have any plans of expansion or updates. Happy Landings! This scenery package made use of the resources of OpenSceneryX, therefore it is more or less obvious it requires OpenSceneryx to be installed, it can be found here: http://www.opensceneryx.com/ Planned Projects: KLCK(On Hold) KOSU KCMH 04I 6I6(WIP) KZZV KNXF(WIP) Completed Projects: 8G6 (http://forums.x-pilot.com/files/file/644-harrison-county-airport-8g6/)

    S83 Shoshone County Airport Located just west of Kellogg, Idaho. Sits low in a narrow valley at 2200' surrounded by 3500' and 4000' peaks and ridges. It is between the St. Joe and the Coeur d'Alene mountain ranges. Test your hand flying skills, no instrument procedures, and a nice 5300' runway. In real life the airport can be a great test of your cross wind landing skills. Includes static aircraft, trees, exclusion zones so there should be no issues with the beta or future updates.

    This scenery package adds the 2 concrete and 6 grass helipads in the precise location for the Circuit of the Americas (COTA), the track in Austin, Texas that hosts the Formula1 Grand Prix. Sorry, the race track facility isn't in this package -- it's the heliport only, however this adds a great option for practicing short haul heli flights as you ferry F1 fans from nearby Austin Bergstrom (KAUS) and Austin Executive (KEDC). Be sure to download my KEDC scenery package as it has the necessary helipads. Have fun!

    HAPPY THANKSGIVING. To celebrate, here's LaCrosse Wisconsin. KLSE. NOTE: There is currently a navaid issue which will be addressed in a future X-plane update. If you do not correct this, then the glidescope transmitter for R18 will appear (almost) on top of a taxiway. Since the data was updated, the taxiway and glidescope transmitter was moved. This airport file places the taxiway in the correct location, but you must (optionally) edit the earth_nav.dat file if you want to move the glide scope transmitter to the correct location. In a future update of X-plane, this will be fixed. Until then, you will need to edit the earth_nav.dat file after every time you update X-plane. Find the line in earth_nav.dat contains "ILSE" and ends with "GS", edit the lat/lng (second and third field) to match this line: 6 43.89033333 -091.25760000 652 11110 10 300179.446 ILSE KLSE 18 GS

    Spokane, Washington State USA KGEG, Spokane International Airport, under construction. This airport has had several changes over the last two years and is in the process of taxiway reconfiguration, building a new ARFF facility, and several other projects. I am almost complete, but wanted some feedback. Version 3 will contain custom objects. I have the airfield side configured as it will look at the end of next summer when the taxiways are reconfigured. Right now I am using only the default objects. I have placed some airfield side ramp equipment. All the buildings, lighting and lights are placed as close as possible to real with default objects. I have excluded most of the default roads (wrong locations) at the airport due to new construction. I have placed new polygons where the roads and drives actually are. I added photo scenery and several more buildings surrounding the airport. Please see the attached txt file for some changes that need to be made to the earth_nav.dat file, otherwise the glide slope antenna for rwy 3, and localizer antenna for rwy 21 and the IM of rwy 3 will be in the wrong locations, two of them right in the middle of the runway. I have placed some fun stuff. I will have a few changes and additions to make but I didn't notice until I had everything zipped up. Let me know what you think. Thanks Chris

    About KOLM KOLM Olympia Regional is a general aviation airport located along the I-5 corridor just south of Washington’s capital. It is a public use facility owned by the Port of Olympia. KOLM offers two paved asphalt runways, an instrument landing system (ILS), the Olympia VOR nav aid, 100LL and Jet-A fuel services, flight schools, oxygen, hangars, tiedowns, and aircraft maintenance facilities. KOLM is also home to the Washington State Patrol’s aviation division and the Olympic Flight Museum. The museum puts on an annual air show offering numerous civil and military static displays, aerobatic and warbird flight demonstrations and usually a US Military jet fighter or two. In 2009, Olympia Regional averaged 131 air operations per day, the vast majority of which were general aviation related. My Rendition KOLM was an airport I have wanted to build in WED ever since I got started in scenery building. It is much larger than all the others I have built thus far and I really wanted to save it until I had properly honed my design skills to do it justice. Having attended the annual, “Olympic Airshow,” here on several occasions, I was highly motivated to bring a good quality version of KOLM to XPlane. Well…here we are! Setting out in the design, I was very pleased to find that the default apt.dat for KOLM was already very well laid out with great lines and a majority of the taxi signs already accurately placed and labeled. Though it still required a significant amount of tweaking, having a good base to build on really made my life a lot easier from the start, helping the rest of the airport design fall into place. As is the case with all of my other airports, I have sought to make KOLM as accurately rendered as possible utilizing available resources. You’ll quickly notice that this scenery package includes several custom modeled building objects expertly designed by our own Brian Godwin, the designer of the excellent and hugely popular KDFW Dallas Ft. Worth project. While consulting with Brian regarding custom ATC routes, he generously offered to model several of the buildings for me. It really worked out well as I was able to provide my own photos for use in the textures as well as a, “boots on the ground,” perspective. The end result is a scenery package that is exponentially more accurate than I could have created on my own. Included in the download and packaged with the scenery are two separate ICAO’s, WN70 Northwest Helicopters, and 0WN4 Olympia Heliport. Northwest Helicopters in directly on site and didn’t really require much from me. Olympia Heliport, however, to the immediate southeast of KOLM, is modeled more plausibly, though it’s still a nice place to fly rotorcraft. KOLM features custom ATC routes and numerous custom buildings. I have also included some, “in hangar,” start locations to add to the immersion level so the user has the choice of making Olympia Regional their home field. Enjoy! Acknowledgements Thanks to the following for the big and small contributions made to this scenery: - Ben Supnik (creator of WED), none of this would be here without you! - Jacques Brault (creator of several buildings and objects used in this scenery) - The many contributors to OpensceneryX - walterblenny (horizontal fuel tanks and anemometer and wind vane objects) - Mr 3D and chris noe (Real Flag, Flags of the World, Flags of the USA states) - Aerospace (consultation) - Pierre Lavaux (consultation/testing) - Lightman (consultation/testing/encouragement) Special Thanks KOLM is really a joint project on so many levels. A very special thanks goes first and foremost to Brian Godwin for all your help bringing this project to life. Thanks for devoting so much of your time and energy to this, from 3D modeling to consultation, advice, and encouragement. I couldn’t have done it without you! Thanks also to tubakid2347 for the fantastic looking custom segmented circle object.

    CYMV Fly-In Theater (FIC) Prince Edward Island, Canada CYMV is just that, a fly-in theater. The runway is big enough for a V35 Bonanza and there's hangars and tiedowns for your plane while you watch Top Gun. How to watch: Simply place your aircraft at CYMV, wait until sundown and it will start. Thanks to daveduck for the screen and his permission Enjoy, vsully

    Hello everybody! This is a HUGE improvement from my last KROC if any of you have seen it. X_PLANE 10 ONLY, PLEASE don't ask me for a v9. This version includes all accurate gates, jetways, and airlines with aircrafts.This version also includes a true to life cargo center and GA area WITH ALL of our training planes here in ROC. If you haven't figured out, this is my home airport! A lot of time and effort put into this one. The biggest plane ever flown here would be the 767 So the biggest flown here for commercial would be around the 737. Not a very big airport! Hope you like my scenery! If you fly over my house please wave!!

    My first upload with X-Pilot and my 16th on the .Org is KFFA First In Flight Airport on the same island that the Wrights were the First to Fly. It's an small GA airport with no buildings and one runway. X-Plane simulates it with an extra runway, 19/01, that in actuality is a road. In the "KFFA First Flight Airport _NORMAL" file the extra runway has cars and trucks on it like an road and in the "KFFA First Flight _FR" file the runway has taxiways connecting to the normal runway and is easily accessible with an Piper Cub or an Stinson L5. Enjoy, vsully

    D38 is a small GA airport in the Finger Lakes/ Adirondacks area of New York. It's a great spot if your looking for a scenic flight over farm country, or a scenic flight over a lake or a short lake to airport flight. With three long hangars, this aircraft has car rental in the front parking lot near the FBO. Around here, we call it "storage land" because many people store their aircraft there, but there are never really many flights. Anyways, in the real world, who would want to land in the middle of Redneck country any way Overall it's a nice quiet airport with not many things to do in the vicinity except fly! FLY FLY FLY!!!

    Idaho, USA It is a nice and long U.S. Forest Service dirt strip in the glorious backcountry of Idaho! It can take of and land a C208 easy....WITHOUT FLAPS! The runway is invisible but the taxiways can be seen. I made it this way because the runway is a bit curved. So the runway is just that big long stretch of curved dirt. It You don't even have to worry about it because it all works fine. Just fire up X-Plane an go to S81. Cheesy. You will love it. It's only complicated if you are a scenery making freak like myself. Just don't edit it and you're good! I used google maps so it is pretty realistic. The rwy is 100% real but some of the objects are not as real. Made in v9.70 requires OpenSceneryX. Made with WED and OE. Includes custom ramp starts and Tower View. Best if runway follows terrian is ON. It should work in v10 too. Known bug is that a tree is growing out of the hangar and some trees are floating. That will be fixed in the next upload. I will update as needed. Install it, pull up your favourite bush/STOL plane and you're good to go! Enjoy! NOTE: I have this same package on the X-Plane.org forums. I am putting it on here too. I am new to X-Pilot but I have used the X-Plane.org forums for a long time. My VA does some bush flying with routes in and out of this airport. My profile has info about that.

    Located on the scenic Maine Coast, Wiscasset Airport is a lovely little General Aviation airport for your next jaunt over the Pine Tree State. I decided to build this airport after seeing a request for it from another user in the comments section for another one of my sceneries. I was delighted to find that the default apt.dat for KIWI was already very accurately laid out and only required minor fixes and adjustments on my part. The layout of the airport is accurate and current with buildings being the major plausible approximations. Thanks to the following: Ben Supnik, Brian Godwin, Jacques Brault (buildings and static aircraft), the many talented contributors to opensceneryx, Lightman, and Sakai7 for the great request! Note: Please be sure to have, "runways follow terrain contours," off. Otherwise you will have an extremely uneven surface for the eastern end of the ramp.

    The one thing we as XPlane users have in common...the one thing that unites us and brings us together is our love for aviation. I imagine, for many of us, that each individual could recall a specific place, an airport like this perhaps, where that spark, that passion for flight was ignited. For me, this is that place. Back in the mid 70's my dad fueled DC-3's and Twin Otters (among other aircraft) at Robert LaFleur Municipal Airport to help him pay for his flight training. By the time I was a toddler, dad started taking me up in 172's and the rest is history! To say that I bear some familiarity and sentimentality to this small, unassuming GA airport would be an understatement, as I would continue to be my father's, "copilot," as the years passed by. In all actuality, there really isn't anything all that special about KWVL. The scenery isn't that spectacular in Central Maine, just woods and the nearby Belgrade Lakes, really. I suppose the most interesting thing about KWVL is the ILS for runway 5. Still, this place is special...for me at least, and I thought I would share my rendition of it with all of you. Runway 5/23 is the long one with ILS. At 5500 ft and with MALSF on the 5 end, executive flights here with business jets are not a problem. The crosswind runway, 14/32 at 2300 x 60 ft is a fun challenge and has recently been resurfaced and reopened after an extensive period of being closed due to poor upkeep. Since I don't do my own 3D modeling there are no custom buildings here to perfectly match their real world counterparts. Thus, this is a plausible representation of the field, though, I believe, it is as close as we can get with the resources available. I hope you enjoy KWVL. If nothing else, it will provide us with another place to fly in the great State of Maine! Note: This airport looks best with, "runways follow terrain contours," turned ON. Thanks to the following: Ben Supnik, Brian Godwin, Walter Blenny (for those GORGEOUS horizontal fuel tanks), Jacques Brault (hangars and static airplanes), and the talented contributors to OpensceneryX.

    Welcome to Washington's beautiful San Juan Islands! Located smack dab between the Washington mainland and British Columbia's Vancouver Island, the San Juan's are a tourism hotspot, abounding in stunning natural beauty with some quaint island life sprinkled in. The San Juan's are a boater's and sea kayaker's paradise and whale watching is a major tourist draw to the islands with waterways teeming with several pods of resident Orca's (Killer Whales). It is also a poorly kept secret that the San Juan's offer the General Aviation pilot some truly awesome flying opportunities. With at least 20 airports to choose from, between seaplane bases, private airfields, and public use GA facilities, the San Juan Islands are calling your inner Cessna driver! Ditch the push button flying bus, jump into your favorite 100 knot airplane and prepare for some island hopping aviation at its best! S31 Lopez Island Airport is the third largest public use GA airfield in the San Juan's behind KFHR and KORS. If you don't have them already, Aerospace, has modeled Friday Harbor and Orcas Island airports beautifully and I highly recommend downloading them in addition to Lopez. The Privateer has also provided us with a couple of the smaller fields as part of his KNUW Naval Air Station Whidbey Island scenery package. In modeling S31 I have attempted to recreate the airport as faithfully as possible utilizing elements from the default WED 1.2 library, OpensceneryX, and several objects from our own Jacques Brault. I really enjoy modeling the runway to match its real world counterpart and, as always, strive to squeeze in as much realism as possible into my scenery packages. I have populated Fisherman's Bay to the north of the field with several boats and docks to give the scenery on a whole that extra measure of plausibility. According to my research, the airport was freshly paved early last summer (2012) and looks slightly different now than what was available to me for satellite imagery. It appears that the taxiway is now shaped slightly differently at both ends of the runway and the parking T's appear to have been placed differently on the ramp. My rendition, therefore, represents the, "old," version of the airport. I think we can live with it, though I will consider updating the file in the future when current imagery becomes available. Special thanks to the following: Ben Supnik, creator of WED, Brian Godwin, Aerospace, Jacques Brault, and Lightman, my personal beta tester!
