Hi all,
All airports mentioned so far have been fixed, even the 15NK mountain.
Cheers, Neil

Hi Dominique,
Put your airports on my list, I'll get to them when I can. I just send Bernd the last group but these should make the next SP also.
@JPL19, that issue at 15NK will take some thinking, I tried a couple of things but so far nothing works.
Cheers, Neil

Hi Roger,
I've added KOKM to pack 28 as it's "interesting" and not accurate in FSX at all.
@Marty, I've added KOGD to the list but it's VERY large so don't hold your breath.
I DO add all airports requested on this thread to the list, even if I don't mention your name.
Cheers, Neil

Hi FlyBlueSkies,
I'll check 29G and "reset the draw flags", that should fix it. I only have FSX and don't see this issue but really try to reset those draw flags for every airport, but there are a bunch of them.
Try the attached file in place of the one of the same name in the "FTX_FTXG_AIRPORTS/Scenery" folder, all should be OK now. I'll add the fix to Pack 28. 28G has changed names and KPOV is it's current name.
Cheers, Neil

All you've given me so far have been fixed, I like MYAW best, see screenshot. I have no idea who would fly there but at least it looks correct now.
Cheers, Neil

Bring 'em on guys. These take very little time to do, at least the simple ones, so I'll spend today working them if you keep finding them. I (generally) can place them correctly but I can't fix the land added to make the old ones work. Here's MYXB, even added a few houses.
Cheers, Neil

Hi Again,
I just finished MYXZ, it's back on land now. I'll add MYXB to the list.
Cheers, Neil

OK Sylvain,
I'll see what i can do for MYXZ, I've added it to my list for group 2 of the "misfits". Group 1 went out with Vector 1.40.
Cheers, Neil

HI All,
All these requests have been added to my list. With OLC_NA out now I figured I'd get a bunch on add'l requests. I'll not be able to get to them all but undoubtedly some will be upcoming.
Cheers, Neil

Hi Bermuda,
KDTS and KAJR have been added to my list.
@fluro35, I do exclusively NA airports. If someone down under would like to do those you suggested as freeware I would be happy to help.
By the way, airports I'm working on now will show up as Pack 28. Ed is making those 50 smaller airports I did Pack 27, they should be released any time now.
Cheers, Neil

Hi awreaper,
Sure, I'll throw M25 in to Pack 27, a welcome relief while working KBWI, KMKG, KWMC and KMOT, all of which are in Pack 27.
By the way I've sent Ed a group of 50 "small" airports that were requested over time but I passed over to get mid size airports out for you guys. He'll get them released when he gets a chance.
Cheers, Neil

Hi BPL,
W88 is finished and part of this group, 5NC3 would be an good addition.

Hi Pete, thanks for the suggestions
TN44 is an interesting location and the LC in the sim is very good at this location. 57NC (essentially abandoned?) was a challenge to do, not the airport, but the LC around it needed quite a bit of tweaking.
Cheers, Neil

Hi Pete,
I'll take on 57NC, that leaves only 3 more airports to get the 50 I need to finish the small airports pack I'm working on.

Hi BPL,
Thanks for the suggestions of small airports, these all went on my list, some of which will make it to my first group of 50 which I'm working on right now (about 2/3 done).
Cheers, Neil

Thanks Dan,
I'll add KLHV, William T Piper Memorial to my Small Airports Pack, it looks very interesting and thanks for the photos.
Cheers, Neil

Hi dansandiego,
OK, but your picture is not 3GM, it does looks like a good one for my small airports pack, any idea of it's location and ICAO?

Hi Guys,
I'll let Larry have these as I'm busy working on a 50 pack of small NA airports at present.
Cheers, Neil

Hi guys,
I'll do KMKG for Pack 27, it looks like an interesting location. I've added KBTR (don't hold your breath, it's very large) and KISP to my list. JV has given an OK to do a bunch of smaller airports and I'll see about some in Idaho for that group.
I confine my freeware airports to NA so the two military ones in EU aren't being added, sorry.
Cheers, Neil

Hi Ken,
I've finished the fixes to KFRG, no simple matter as it turned out. It should be available in Vector 1.40 which is not all that far away.
Cheers, Neil
-
Hi Ken,
I put KFRG and my "misfit" list, and welcome to our forums.
Cheers, Neil

Hi Archive82,
Coeur d'Alene's main airport is KCOE, I assume that's the one you're talking about and I checked it out and see no issues with the runways. It does have an elevation adjustment (ADE_FTX_NRM_KCOE_elevation_adjustment) so you might want to check Scenery/World/Scenery to see it's active (not .off) when NRM is active. If that looks OK there may be some other scenery that is interfering. It would not be considered a "misfit".
Cheers, Neil

Hi Guys,
I've completed both KETX and CD82. I'll send them in soon to be part of Vector 1.40.
Cheers, Neil

Hi caaront,
KMWL was done in Pack 24. This thread is for freeware airport requests, anything beyond the confines of the airport (other than to make the surrounding LC accurate) is not on the menu, sorry.
Cheers, Neil

Hi Ripcord,
Duly noted. The number of the airports that need tweaking poses the problem in that I'm limited in the number of freeware airports I can do per quarter, but these fixes can be done quickly (well relatively) and added in Vector updates as "Fixed APT" files with no limit to how many. That way, while not up to the "freeware quality standards and ORBX objects", I can fix glaring issues quickly and reasonably. I correct the airport layouts, backgrounds and placement of default objects, etc, just no detail work or custom objects.
Cheers, Neil
