Can I just say that Wanganui although good is actually sitting in the wrong place in relation to Rivers and Roads? The airport is buildings are sort of L-Shaped in relation to the road. Someone did a revised AFCAD for it with a few stock building but I can not find that anymore the site it was hosted is gone.


Yes i know,........... i built the original scenery a few years ago,...... before NZ Topo was around, so it was built to fit into the default FS9 location.
One day, i may update the scenery with a better terminal and some other details, and move its location to fit NZ Topo a little better.

Thames Airfield, NZTH, to fit the new updated Godzone Coromandel Photoreal should be up on Avsim by this weekend.
Also, had a number of requests for a freeware Tauranga Airport , i have ignored this airport, even though it is my hometown airport, probably only because i am fortunate enough to have RealNZ Tauranga. In view of the requests ive had, i will do a freeware version if it for those not fortunate enough to have Robin's beautiful RealNZ Photoreal version.
Also, am going to re-do NZWT Whitianga, and NZUN Pauanui to fit into the new Godzone Coromandel. They were built to fit the RBE NZ Topo scenery. Also under construction, NZCX Coromandel Airfield.

:blink: Huh? :blink: All that's at Hanmer (as of Easter '08) is a hay shed. Mind you, it's that stand of pines bisecting the rwy that makes it interesting. :wink2:

Hi Lawrie,

Now m8, that's not what I wrote (or even implied). I simply thought it was an interesting choice for inclusion in your list.

The real problem with releasing NZHR will be deceiding whether to fit it into the Heath Wells photoreal Hanmer-Pacific Coast scenery, or staying with the default.

Using your scenery "magic touch", I know NZHR will come alive.

Still working on NZSD Stratford, and currently also working on NZMK Motueka.

NZLE Nelson Lakes, is complete, and will probably be available on Avsim later in the week.
As this is yet another one that Microsoft DIDNT include in FS9, there wont be any default or GNZLAP traffic there, so included is a traffic file for those that have the HTAI Cessnas package, using some of the default HTAI aircraft. (just wont have NZ rego's on them).

Lawrie, I have just spoken to my dad - he reckons there are other hangers (2 or 3) there now from what I/you have indicated. The Taranaki gliding club is based there now. No photos though - anybody out there got some of the new hangers?
