If you can provide some pictures then I think we can do something about it.

 

That's awesome, will sort out some pictures for you tomorrow.

 

Couple of decent videos on youtube showing the approach as well.  You can see the trees I'm talking about from near the 24 threshold, running along the north side of the river up until just before the midway access road. All shorter trees and gorse bushes along the fence there as well. Rwy06 end isn't too badly represented by default.

 

Thank you!

Hi, this looks stunning. I haven't used a flight sim since FS2004, but am one of the xbox users eagerly awaiting launch later this month.

 

Can I ask if this will be available eventually in the in-game marketplace on console?

If so it would be a definite purchase for me.

It will be available for both platforms. XBOX will follow later after PC release. Thanks

It's a top add on this one. Given it a quick blast and attention to detail is excellent. Compare the airport to the picture on the official airport website and its uncanny. Superb stuff!

Just finished my first flight into EGPH - and WOW!!!!! I only had a cursory look around, and I'm pretty sure THIS is the new standard in scenery design! Man, you have come a long way in a short period of time - considering your Tivat scenery as a starting point and NOW THIS! Congratulations! Btw - my first impression is always the approach in the WT CJ4 and the question: will the ILS tune automatically? Checked!

Agree, this is easily a top tier airport for the sim!  The terminal interior is one of the best I've seen to date.  I also noticed the screws were turning on the de-ice treatment or water treatment area on the ramp?  Very cool.  I particularly like that you modelled the entire landside area WITH the roads.  This looks a million times better.  Great work guys.  :)

Yeah, this lives up to or exceeds expectations - the detail is incredible, you have a serious talent for modelling! The nicest airport I've seen so far for MSFS, without a doubt.

 

Couple of small requests for improvement though (and I know it's me moaning about trees again!)...could some excludes be added to get rid of incorrect trees within the airport perimeter? There are currently a bunch sitting inside both ILS antennas/approach lights, another one or two dotted around the grass at the 06 end, and a few near the fire trainer, none of which should be there. Most noticeably though, there is a full on forest running along the length of the Gogar burn, from the Archimedes screws, out past the end of the car park. They are really not noticeable IRL as the burn runs along a deep ditch and the trees are much smaller anyway so cant be seen. Right now the terminal buildings are covered by trees in that area, which looks really weird. It's the default MSFS placement, I know, and the mesh isn't detailed enough to show the ditch, but if an exclude could be easily added, it would add to the realism.

 

One more thing, and I guess this is a SDK issue as every airport I have seen so far suffers....the runway/taxiway/apron lights are huge. You can barely see them during the day, but in MSFS they are big glowing orbs! Can anything be done here?

Just run into one more issue - I have no illumination on the tower at night?

Get close and it will lit up, sometimes the lights don’t load in at a distance.
 

 As for the trees, noted. 
apron lights - nothing can be done, afaik, maybe custom modeled lights but that’s quite a tedious job…

Is it possible to force the tower lights on permanently? It would be really subtle during the day and that would mean any approaches at night time would show the tower lit up. At the moment, the tower is not visible during approaches at night time.

Another fantastic airport from @pyreegue! Love the details, really one of the best airport's out there! I enjoy just spending lot of time looking around the airport, including the amazing interior. Makes you wanna fly to and from Edinburgh a lot.

 

The only improvement I could think of is adding passengers, especially by the gates, so when you pull up to the gate you see people inside the terminal.

 

Keep up the good work and looking forward to your upcoming airport's!

Seems to be working fine with SU5....only thing I've noticed it some of the boundary fencing is sort of staggered, Can't remember if it was like that before?

Hi, can you specify the locations where it’s bugged? Thanks

Hello, thanks for your review. Currently working on a solution to add some people to the terminal. Cheers

Can’t think of a possible solution, AI is doing whatever it wants at the moment, I’ve also updated to SU5 yesterday and SDK appears to be totally drunk. Projects on hold for now.
