Calling all FSX "misfit" (non-fitting) airports


Neil Hill

Recommended Posts

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

Thanks again, Neil, for all your work on the misfit airports and freeware airports! :)

 

I just checked a large number of airports in North Carolina and found a number of misfit airports. I'll probably post a list of them with screenshot links tonight or tomorrow morning. I hope to do something similar for Virginia (I think I've already found some more misfit airports there) and check some airports in other states, as well.

Here's a list of the misfit airports I found in North Carolina. (Some of the issues are more minor than others, and I'm not sure if all of them count as misfits. Some might also be remedied with the Vector AEC tool; I would have to test that to see.) Some of the airports now have new names or ICAO codes in the real world, but I've listed them as they are listed in FSX.

The following two airports are airports in the FTX Global NA Airport Pack. A Vector update added realistically drawn beaches to the North Carolina coast after these freeware airports were released, and now the airport background textures no longer mesh properly with the beaches. I'm not sure if this thread is the right place for these, but I thought I'd go ahead and point it out.

 

KHSE - Mitchell - Hatteras, NC

http://fsfiles.org/flightsimshotsv2/image/Gbjf

 

W95 - Ocracoke I - Ocracoke, NC (This airport also appears to have some sort of texture bleed-through issue with the background textures, as can be seen in the first screenshot. I'm not sure what's causing it.)
