A Rough Guide to Scenery Installation
This Guide is supplied ‘as is’ no responsibility is accepted for any data loss or corruption that may occur from its use.

Guest File: To assist you with installing ‘AGN’ scenery, George Davison has agreed to my hosting his little program to make life easier for you. Unzip the program file to a location of your choice, tell it where you have unzipped the AGN files that came with your main download, tell it where GenX Scenery is and it will locate the correct folder and place the files. If you don’t have a ‘Texture’ folder associated with the scenery it will create one automatically. Readme included in the zip.
 

‘Blending’ your own airfield to Photo Scenery using FSX_KML with included test file.

Overview

1. My first public offering. This file will replace the default EGFE Haverfordwest Int. Airfield in FSX, (sorry not compatible  with FS9 and earlier). It is designed to blend with Horizon GenX scenery and Mesh. It may work with Just Flight VFR but has not been tested. The AFD file alone should work with default scenery, but, again has not been tested. It’s free so enjoy! UPDATED 17:30 26/06/07

2. If like me you have tried the brilliant EGCW Welshpool for FS9 by Dave L Jones, (available on AVSIM) you will have been wondering when it would be updated. Well, I did not know and unfortunately the email address for David given with the file no longer works. So, rather than wait I have produced this version using objects from the Runway12 and VFR Addons object library. The AFD file has been produced using the Beta 18 of FSPlanner. There is parking for up to 9 AI aircraft and night lighting, (you can only have lighting for real if you are a regular at Welshpool). The runway reflects the extension carried out in 2006 together with the new 3rd hanger.

3. EGDA - RAF Brawdy approximately 8nm from Haverfordwest. Last in service in 1997 the airfield appears in FSX photoscenery but is not landable. It is now! With parking for over 20AI aircraft (not supplied with this package), it is somewhere to fly the occasional fast jet from. All four runways have full ILS.
Added 28/07/2007

4. EGDC - RAF Chivenor was originally a civilian airfield opened in the 1930’s. Taken into military use during WW2 it is presently the Royal Marine Base Chivenor. The only RAF activity on site is ‘A’ Flight 22 Squadron with two Seaking Search and Rescue Helicopters. These famously saw action saving lives during the freak flooding at Boscastle. Fortunately the Marines have moved their vehicles from the runways so you can use them. Good luck for the Marine Corp Marathon guys, Oct 2007.
File added 11/08/2007

5. EGDG - RAF St Mawgan
First opened in 1933 under the name RAF Trebelzue. This airfield has been much used over the years and now also has a civilian side, Newquay Cornwall Airport . Due to close as a military airfield in August 2008, it will continue on in its civilian role.

6. EGNL - Barrow (Walney Island)
Now with David Morgan - Custom Control Tower
13/04/2008
Previously an RAF base used for Navigator training and before that saw action during the war as a target training base for gunners. Now owned by BAE Systems the airfield has recently had Runway refurbishment and plans are going ahead for the installation of ILS. This file has included AI aircraft by Gerry Winskill to whom I am most grateful for his work.

7. EGTG - Bristol Filton
Famous as a development centre and ‘home’ to Concorde. Just 10 minutes from Bristol City Centre. This package comes with Concorde, an A380, AI traffic file and ample parking for you to ‘do your own thing’ You don’t need to go to extremes and taxi out to Bristol Airport, you have Filton available for free on your city centre doorstep.

23. EGOV RAF Valley & EGOQ Mona
The Royal Air Force Fast Jet Training Centre together with it’s satellite station. My thanks go to Ted Andrews for allowing me to include his RAF Hangars with this scenery. The two AFD files should remain in the same scenery file as they share the same blend file and scenery files. The RAF Hangar file should be expanded to your Static Objects scenery and Texture folders.

24. EGLF Farnborough.
Now operated by TAG the site has been associated with aircraft development since 1918. The site is now designated for small commercial use but is still home to one of the greatest airshows held world wide.

57. UK11 (X4YR) Rufforth Airfield.
Another former WW2 Airfield, today it serves as two airfields in one. The Yorkshire Gliding Club function in the Western area of the airfield whilst the Rufforth Microlight Centre operates in the Eastern area. As the airfield had a single runway designated UK11 in the default simulator this version uses the default designation for Gliding and X4YR for the Microlight Centre. The UK ‘safetycom’ frequency is shared between them.

58. X2GC Greenham Common Airbase
Located outside Newbury in southern England this airfield was used by the USAF. In 1958 there was a fire, allegedly involving the destruction of a nuclear weapon. Details are still to some extent classified but many theories abound. The 501st Tactical Missile Wing moved in with Cruise Missiles in 1983 but these were all removed in 1991. The base closed in 1993 and sold for the purpose of returning the land to public use in 1997.
This model is based on the outlines of the runway and taxiways still visible today in aerial photography.
