Experience a meticulously updated rendition of Melbourne International Airport (YMML), located in Victoria, Australia, crafted specifically for Microsoft Flight Simulator X. This freeware release, created by Ray Smith, refines parking assignments, runway alignments, and more, while offering optional crosswind functionality for an authentic representation of operations at Tullamarine.
Refined Airfield Layout and Structures
This add-on features two distinct airport configurations. One file activates the secondary Runway 9/27, enabling simultaneous movements on both runways. The other file retains the standard runway arrangement. Both variants incorporate:
- Extended gates to accommodate aircraft up to the Airbus A380
- Updated Terminal 2 (T2) expansion to mirror real-world modifications
- Widened Runway 16/34 and revised taxiways/taxi signs per recent charts
- A newly positioned control tower for increased realism
- Additional service roads and extra fuel trucks for enhanced ground service coverage
All critical improvements adhere to official documentation, ensuring a faithful depiction of this busy Australian gateway known for handling long-haul operations from various global carriers.
Included Files
Three core BGL files facilitate the improvements:
- YMML_ADE_RS.BGL
- Provides standard runway patterns without crosswind activation.
- YMML_ADE_CW_RS.BGL
- Enables Runway 9/27 for simultaneous takeoff and landing operations.
- YMML_ADE_OBJ.BGL
- Handles updated jetway items and extra objects for a realistic apron environment.
Choose a single runway configuration file according to your preference, and keep in mind that assigned parking remains the same across both options.
Advanced Runway Operations
When using YMML_ADE_CW_RS.BGL, you may notice extra ATIS runway calls. This is typical of crosswind runway activation methods. If you prefer default runway declarations, simply opt for YMML_ADE_RS.BGL instead.
Installation Instructions
- Before proceeding, remove or overwrite any previous version originating from this developer to prevent conflicts.
- From the two runway operation files, select either YMML_ADE_RS.BGL or YMML_ADE_CW_RS.BGL and place the chosen file in your “Addon Scenery/scenery” folder.
- Add YMML_ADE_OBJ.BGL to your “Scenery/Global/scenery” folder.
- For jetway extensions, copy the jfk_jetway.dds (day) and jfk_jetway_LM.dds (night) files from FSX/Scenery/NAME/Texture and paste them into the Scenery/Global/Texture directory. If you have previously completed this step for Ray Smith’s other airports, you can skip it.
- Important: Only keep one YMML_RS.BGL file active at any time to avoid incorrect stands or ground conflicts.
- Ensure that AI traffic add-ons have not installed another AFCAD for YMML, as simultaneous AFCADs could lead to issues.
Uninstall Procedure
- Remove the installed BGL files from the “Addon Scenery/scenery” and “Scenery/Global/scenery” folders. The default stock airport will then return to use.
Enjoy the upgraded realism of Melbourne’s principal aviation hub and have a satisfying flight experience. Developed by Ray Smith.

Not good. Loaded at gate 22 Large and it instantly creates a building crash
