An Ireland location at Donegal presents a rebuilt layout featuring a new terminal and control tower, static aircraft staged for maintenance or departure, alongside a car park with 3D cars and a surrounding road. By Harry Patten.

Cardington airfield at EGRA near Bedford, UK, reflects operations dating from 1917 to 1938 and depicts the 1928 layout with Hangar 1 housing the R101 while Hangar 2 remains empty, and the asphalt main runway measures 2990 by 200 feet. NAVAIDs include NDB CARDINGTON on 403.0 kHz and ILS INAS CARDINGTON on 110.500 MHz.

Using the NL2000 framework, designers present Den Helder’s EHKD with dual civilian and military operations, including hangars and rotorcraft parking spots along a North Sea coastline. The v4.02 release pairs with the v4.0.20 installer and high-resolution aerial imagery fuels detailed terminal and control-tower models.

Woensdrecht base appears in the NL2000 v4 lineup, detailing apron layouts and essential facilities to mirror real operations. It relies on the v4.0.32 installer and aligns runway coordinates and orientation with authentic data within the NL2000 v4 ecosystem.

Castlegar Airport in British Columbia receives a patch by P. Nigel Grant that adapts Vern Opperman’s CYCG_V2.ZIP for use with cyxc04.zip. The accompanying archive supplies four bgl files to place in the CYXC scenery folder, two to remove, and a single bmp file moved into the CYXC directory.

Groningen Airport Eelde (EHGG) is faithfully modeled with an accurate apron layout and gate markings. Extensive aerial imagery yields photoreal surfaces around the terminal and runway, and three-dimensional modeling reduces performance overhead, delivering smoother frame rates for regional operations.

Richard O. Finley presents a forty-one-airport Pennsylvania ghost-airport compilation for a historical flight-simulation, drawn from a March 1940 Cleveland sectional and Penn Pilot imagery with terrain flattened to two-thousand-foot runways where applicable. KOIL marks Oil City, many identifiers are improvised, and two ZIPs named GHOST_AIRPORTS_COLLECTION_PENNSYLVANIA_UPDATE_1.ZIP and GHOST_AIRPORTS_COLLECTION_PENNSYLVANIA_UPDATE_2.ZIP accompany the distribution.

The Dijon Longvic air base hosts a civil terminal and a military restricted area, designed for a French multiplayer setting. Production uses ADE 1.40 and static models by Guy Diotte to populate the scene with traffic separation between civilian operations and restricted zones.

By Frank, with Raimondo’s support, Croda Rossa presents a two-meter terrain overlay created from real aerial imagery collected by a local pilot and designed to stack over ItalVFR’s Trentino coverage. The enhancement remains usable as a standalone add-on and remains layered to prioritize Alpine peak details in Northern Italy, particularly Croda Rossa.

Roger Leupold presents a project depicting Ayers Rock, the airport and resort near Uluru in the Northern Territory, Australia. Aerial imagery guides place runways and objects to resemble the actual airport, with credits given to Scuffy Ducks’ design program for making the work possible.

Ortia Fix adds the author’s Secunda base (FASC) and aligns with the real FAJS layout as OR Tambo Intl Airport FAJS V1.2. Wessel Bonnet lists a .bgl file detailing apron redesigns and corrected B-apron gate counts, preserving freeware status.

Rotterdam The Hague Airport is added to the Version 4 series, with the NL2000 v4.0.20 installer for proper integration. It delivers custom terminal facades, photo-real surface imagery of runways and aprons, and animated ground vehicles around the Rotterdam area near The Hague.

CAM3 centers on the Duncan airstrip on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, presented as v1 with add-ons such as a burger joint, extra hangars, 3D people, and gravel industrial operations. Three text files—btfw_cam3_airport_objects.txt, btfw_cam3_gravel_industrial_operations_objects.txt, and btfw_cam3_sproat_lake_objects.txt—list required freeware libraries, while custom rocks and 3D figures install automatically.

Near Metz in France, LFGR Doncourt-les-Conflans airfield has distinct ground with seasonal and night variants. An animated windsock credited to Arno Gerretsen and a VAC chart with accompanying documentation support the layout for the airfield.
In Alaska, a custom airstrip forms the centerpiece of a Dew Line-linked site, with credits to Frits Beyer and Jacques Botha and the PAKA designation. The Rivier Camp(PAKA) folder and the AFX_PAKA_ALT.bgl file hold the practical data.

The airfield sits near La Llagonne at the edge of the Pyrenees in France, offering rough terrain beside a large lake and a region rich in thermals. Registration is LFNQ, and it is not compatible with earlier iterations.

Cons LFBB v4.5 models Bordeaux/Merignac Airport in France with upgraded runway layouts and new objects such as parking areas. A LFBB folder anchors the arrangement, and credits Conrad Asman alongside Peter Stark for contributions to airport facility data and parking positions.

Lake Hood's area near Alaska gains added hangars, animated floatplanes, docks, buildings, and land vehicles, by Daniel Kemmer. It uses Lakehood.bgl and Lakehoodparking1.bgl, and viewers see full detail only when the display complexity is set to very dense.

Two bases anchor this Port McNeill project, Port McNeill Water Aerodrome CAM8 and Port McNeill Hospital Heliport CBM9. CAM8 serves as the float-plane home base for Pacific Eagle Aviation, and Mike Mann authored this work.
Two fixes address Istanbul Ataturk Airport and Sabiha Gokcen International Airport, authored by Serdar Nuzhet, using LTBA2009.ZIP and LTFJ2009-1.ZIP to replace with the original files for each location, documenting targeted coverage at LTBA and LTFJ.
