Hi caleb1 A region of Alaska north of SAK is in the thinking process so I am hesitant to add these as it's complicated to remove them later if that region comes about. Cheers, Neil -

Hi thunderstreak, I found an Air Force museum at KFFO, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base but no KFFB. Are you sure of the ICAO? Cheers, Neil Wright-Patterson Air Force Base -

Hi BPL, I've noted the airports you've mentioned here. The vast majority are vector issues but I will see what I can do. Cheers, Neil -

Hi robertkoon, KEKN has been completed and is part of the next Pack due in April. I agree, it looks nice nestled in the hills. @PcDrummer, I've added your suggestions to my list of proposed airports. Cheers, Neil -

HI Troyboy, KBOI is one of the airports in the ORBX Central Rocky Mountains (CRM) region. It won't be done as freeware. @ Sabretooth, I'll add NY89 to my list of proposed freeware airports, it looks interesting. Cheers, Neil -
Hi all you old farts, I'll turn 80 in August and have a myriad of issues but I'd like to think I'm still useful to ORBX. Revising airports is what keeps me from going nuts. Nice to see I'm not the only oldster around here. Cheers, Neil

Hi all, I'm working on the list of noted airports from reports starting Oct 2016 to present, I'm about 1/3 complete. NOTE: Only misfits not yet fixed in some other way will be done, ie: airports in regions, payware airports , Tongrass Fjords, ones already fixed, etc will be skipped. If you have questions please let me know. Cheers, Neil -

Hi Drizzle, This is not the correct thread for your EGHA issue, try the main forum. This thread is for misplaced (ie: misfit) stock FSX airports that showed up when "Vector" corrected the worlds shorelines. EGHA is one of our payware airports. Cheers, Neil -

Hi Guys, I've noted the "misfits" mentioned above and will look into fixing them. The majority of previous fixes has been in the Caribbean but I can expand that to include any others that are noted. Cheers, Neil -

Hi FireRx, We do not do freeware airports for those already done as a "region" airport". KFAT is one of the airports of the Northern California (NCA) region. As for airports NOT in regions, I continue to keep track of all that have been suggested. Cheers, Neil -

Hi All, All the NA airports have been noted and added to the loooong list. @Maxhades- Larry and I focus on NA airports. Maybe someone from EU would like to undertake some Europe freeware airports? Cheers, Neil -

Sorry H3pilot, This thread is for freeware airports outside of ORBX regions. KNZY looks better than most airports as it has a PR background. Cheers, Neil -

Hi johnfromoz, At JV's request I'm currently doing ALL Aussie airports for an update that will eventually be released, just not soon as there are a LOT of airports. You're the 2nd person who's requested airports that are already done as freeware. PAUN, CYQT and CYZF are all currently released freeware airports. Cheers, Neil -

Thank you FalconAF, KSGU was an interesting challenge, how do you move an airport many miles while using the same ICAO, I had to recreate the old one with LC textures only. I think it turned out pretty well and I'm glad you like the new one. @ Captain Coffee, Please use ICAO's when suggesting airport changes, it saves me a bunch of time. I did find the ones you mentioned and have them on my misfit list. Cheers, Neil -

Hi manfredc2, I took a look at KCOS to see what I could do and found I only needed to disable AEC and all looked fine. I use stock FSX mesh and carefully looked at the airport ground texture and found nothing amiss, no trees, no houses all looked fine. Check to see if you have some other KCOS scenery addon's that might be causing you grief. Cheers, Neil -

Hi Drizzle, I will pass onto Eugene your interest in having more towns included in the Caribbean Islands. My focus is on airports so I'm trying to get them in order. Cheers, Neil -

Hi guys, Eugene's provided a fix for KBUY that will show it as dirt again. It will be part of the Freeware Pack 28 release. As far as KMCO is concerned I think I'll put the fix in a new folder we're working on for fixing OLC issues with default FSX airports. The fix that's part of 1.15 doesn't seem to work or everybody Cheers, Neil -

Blast!!! OLC strikes again. Eugene changed the "dirt" ADE uses to "Heavy Industrial" for use in NA_OLC textures. I'll add it to my list to find a fix for. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. Uncheeers, Neil Edit: I forgot that Eugene has actually fixed UT68 already and it will be part of Pack 28 when it's released. Recheers, Neil -

HI Drizzle, MYXB is already fixed, just trying to work out how to release this and a number of other "misfit" airports. @Motodave, the trees issue at KLSV has been fixed. Cheers, Neil -

Hi Greg, I've done KCQX, it's part of a special group in the new England area, I'm not sure when the group will be available. Cheers, Neil
