Popular Post Aimee Sanjari Posted November 26, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted November 26, 2018 Hello everyone, The latest airport in our British series is EGHR Goodwood. This airport is near and dear to our JV's heart - not only is it his local airfield, but it's also the site of the Spitfire sim which uses TrueEarth GB! EGHR Chichester/Goodwood Airport is located in Chichester, West Sussex and is the first airport Orbx released for England. The developers have tried to capture both the history and the natural beauty of the aerodrome and the surrounding area. Almost every single object seen at the real airport has been photographed, modelled and placed, allowing you to immerse yourself in a realistic flight simulation environment. The airport is located on Goodwood Estate which was the home to the Dukes of Richmond for over 300 years and was donated by Freddie March, the 9th Duke, to help in the Second World War effort and was used by the RAF. The airport's surrounding road was converted into a racing circuit after the war and creates the unusual cocktail of racing and aviation, which has been perfectly captured. Fun fact: The Boultbee Spitfire Academy is located in the large green hangar - see if you can find it! Key Features: 15/60 cm ground imagery Static aircraft and cars Animated Ferraris racing! Varied vegetation Includes Goodwood House Includes Goodwood racecourse Animated clocks Photographed on site Matched to TrueEarth GB Please note that for the best experience, we recommend using EGHR in conjunction with TrueEarth Great Britain South. The scenery will work without it, however some users may experience the following: Missing or misplaced forests Missing or misplaced buildings surrounding the airport Photoreal blending EGHR Goodwood Airport will be available to purchase from OrbxDirect soon for AUD $32.95 (approx. USD $24.35 / €21 / £18.50) - Previous buyers of the FSX/P3D version will get an automatic 40% discount. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VH-KDK Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Good news and it will be a great addition to flying along the south coast. Some of my earliest memories are going to the motor racing at Goodwood in the late 50s so this scenery is dear to my heart! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vfr_steve Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 (edited) Very nice! As you clearly have a higher resolution version of the UK available and are using it for areas around your airports, you could have an option for this to be available for the UK - I'd buy it even if it was 1TB per region and £100 Edited November 26, 2018 by vfr_steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthijs Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Another masterpiece, but now it’s time for some animated people in this scenery. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patster-NZ Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Please notify my bank manager! Looks 1st class. I still haven't come down to earth after installing Shoreham. Best regards from NZCH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you clearly have a higher resolution version of the UK available and are using it for areas around your airports, you could have an option for this to be available for the UK - I'd buy it even if it was 1TB per region and £100 We don't have that resolution imagery available for the whole UK. We only license ZL18/19/20 for specific areas at airports. Would you buy a TE region at ZL19 for £400? Because that is what the price would need to be for us to afford the hosting bandwidth costs, perhaps even more. It would also take us about 5-6 times as long to clean up and colour match that resolution of imagery purely because of the sheer size of the files to manage. What we are looking into instead is offering ZL19 areas where flying is popular or interesting. You will see this in the upcoming SP1 for South in central London and Portsmouth at ZL19. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Hargreaves Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 I think that is a good solution, looking forward to sp1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTH Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I love it one question. Was that a church or a convent I flew over the other day. ( a photo of it is above me) If not what is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Venema Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 That is likely Chichester Cathedral. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
