Installation Procedure

All necessary files come in the form of BGL documents. To install:

Copy the two .bgl files into your FSX/Addon Scenery/Scenery folder.
Confirm that “Addon Scenery” remains activated within the simulator’s library.

Removing the Files

To revert to default data, simply remove the two .bgl files from the FSX/Addon Scenery/Scenery folder. This restores the original airport configuration while keeping your simulator’s core installation intact.

Developed by Joost de Wit, this AFCAD modification seamlessly integrates into Microsoft Flight Simulator X, bringing a more precise rendition of Groningen-Eelde Airport and enriching virtual aviation in this northern region of the Netherlands.
