Quick description:

This megapack includes 25 airports/airfields around central Arizona that each have been handcrafted with extra 3D assets and fixes.

What does this mod do?

This something a little different but I wanted to designed an addon for users who fly on FSEconomy or Onair around the Phoenix area of Arizona. Not everyone will visit these small airfields but these destinations should feel like they are actively used by their respected community. It's not just extra buildings but other tiny enhancements like making dirt runways stand out against the desert floor will benefit pilots looking for the airfield. Originally, most of these airfields didn't have a place to start Cold'N'Dark, so I added a parking spot to each airport. Not every airport in this pack is perfect but the adjustments I made should help make the world feel more alive.

More information:

*I have added taxi ribbons to every airport in this pack, but some have issues with this system. I tried to fix these issues, but every workaround failed; this might be an SDK issue. Even though some airports have taxi ribbon issues, hopefully these markers still help guide people using this assistance system. *

If you discover any issues, please make a note in the bug discussion form; thank you.

The ZIP file includes three different addons; each addon contains the listed below airports.

Known Issues:

  • Some airports/airfields taxi ribbons (if enabled) will always lead the player to only one runway; even though the ATC (in-game) asks for a different runway.
  • The taxi ribbon takes ~30 secs to load when you announce taxi.
  • Cars are still driving on newly placed taxiways (still looking for a fix to remove them)
