• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

An early version of a rework of Land's End/St Just (EGHC) (home of the crazy 'runway/taxiway sign storage facility')

v0.2.0

**edit removed onedrive link, see github link below**

* All 'built-in' airport features overridden apart from auto generated buildings
* Runways 07-25 and 16-34 corrected to use Asphalt and have lighting/APAPI
* Runways 02-20 and 11-29 set to grass with no lighting
* Taxiways A and B created with Hold Short terminators
* 'Gates' 1 through 6 created with routes to taxiways
* Added 'Parking' 1-5 on the grass area to the west of the main apron
* Placeholder Tower Model from library
* Tower frequency corrected to 120.250 (no separate ground frequency)
* Added RNAV for runways 25 and 34
* Added a Fuel Truck with Parking to the South of the Apron ( not entirely realistic but allows refueling)

Not sure if these will work for other people, but there are two 'Flight Plans' for the RNAV approaches (25 and 34) as circuits starting from the same runway, the weather should be wind straight down the runway with cloud down to zero.

** removed onedrive link, I am not sure the flight plans uploaded will work for other people **

Updated to fix a few issues, including the windsock direction. Still working on sorting out the taxiways properly but the game AI is conspiring against me.

v 0.3.0 Changes
  • Correct Windsock direction (set heading to 0 degrees rather than default 180)
  • Remove house close to start of runway 11
  • Remove RW25 and RW34 Waypoints - they don't need to be specified as they are implicit 'runway' waypoints
  • Adjust height profile of runways to try to remove some weird effects where they cross

Minor Update.
Mostly just some tidy up on the markings on the runways and apron, still a lot to do.
Taxiways are still causing me grief but I will get there.

v 0.4.0 Changes
  • Ensure airport is flagged with a 'star'
  • Update markings on grass runways
  • Use proper 'grass' material for runways
  • Add green 'pedestrian' markings to apron
  • Clean up/improve runway ends
  • Set correct pattern altitude (1400 feet)
  • RNAV Approach tweaks
  • Added ReleaseNotes to Package definition

Reworking taxiways - still not happy with them as I have had to do a lot of 'hacky' stuff to get them to behave.

v0.5.0
Reworked taxiway routes from parking to runways 07-25 and 16-34 with a view to having
  • Reasonable instructions from ATC
  • 'taxi guidance' blue arrows that mostly get you where you need to be
  • Correct 'runway start' positions when spawning ready to take off.
Changes
  • Removed hold-shorts at end of taxiways A and B
  • Added hold-shorts to runway starts
  • Reworked taxiway routes to 25 and 34
  • Added taxiway routes to 07 and 16
  • Runway 25 yellow lines using Painted Lines not taxiway
