Dubai

An area to discuss scenery addons for virtual NZ

Postby Kelburn » Wed Dec 02, 2009 8:48 am

Does anyone know of any Dubai scenery with the present airport layout (refer to google maps or google earth).
They used to have parallel ruways in line with each other but now one is displaced (it helps take-off and landing flow - I landed there bout 5months ago...)
There's only the one terminal as well.
So anyone know of any scenery that has this layout?
(I have no idea why they'd demolish a terminal and move a runway!)
Cheers,
Kelburn

Maybe Flytampa Dubai payware addon mite help you ,its for FS9 ,features are the main two terminals and some hangers ,the terminals are the best ive ever seen in 2004 that are fully open with ppls and stands models inside the windows ,also has custom AI models running about ,not sure how update thsi is as Dubai grows like no other country ,so there would be big differences now to the way it was then ...

having looked at the demo (the full version with large purble boxes obscuring some of the airport), It has the old 2004 layout... The new layout came about in 2007 (I think) REally hard to describe though...

Know of any other scenery that does? I suppose there are not many options ,maybe load the payware in then find a third party addon to put the new updated buildings in ,or build it yourself etc ,remeber if its not out there you have to start from somewhere ,flytampa have put in most of the ground work ,we as hobbyist add to it or use it as is ...

yeah. I might have a try later on. I remember landing and thinking, "this terminal doesn't seem so large. I thought there were three!"

Well I found this:

http://library.avsim.net/search.php?Search...n&Go=Search

I downloaded it and installed it. The terminal and downtown show up all right but the photo scenery and the runways and taxiways do not. Any idea how to semi-"convert" from fsx to fs9 at all?
Thanks,
Kelburn
