Has a great atmosphere doesn't it? If you want the scenery, you can get the airport and photoreal under the file names ' city_of_timaru.zip' and 'timaru.zip' from AVsim.

Awesome pics mate - very nice :D

I have that airport and Timaru scenery too, I carried out the instructions in the City Scenery as far as removing some of the airport files, but I get white square pillars around the airport. I have a feeling it's due to me not having the Gerrish Grey Trees installed, which brings me to a question it that's the case ...

The read-me for the Gerrish trees v3 mentions finding and replacing up to 65 different textures, but the instructions are for FS2002. It seems a mammoth task and one I can't recall doing during my previous install when I had the files set up. I don't know if the effort would be worth it and wonder is there a FS2004 version available?

edit: Nevermind, I found all the files and deleted them and installed Gerrish's... no more white pillars and all looks awesome
