AFCAD File For TXKF

L.F. Wade International Airport, St. George Island, Bermuda. By Kyle Cormier / Alpha-India Group.

This is L.F. Wade International Airport, St. George Island , Bermuda for the FSX Default airport and was produced using ADE V1.39.07. L. F Wade, formally known as Bermuda International is the only airport servicing the islands of Bermuda. Though it had 3 runways at one time only runway 12-30 is used today. Peak season of July and August can see up to 300 flights daily. The airport is a NASA space shuttle launch abort landing site used during low and mid inclination launches. ATTCC services are provided by the New York ARTCC.

Main Changes:

• Terminal building and gates repositioned or adjusted to reflect real world conditions.
• All Taxiways re-aligned to their correct positions as per current FAA airport diagram and verified from Google Earth.
• All Aprons re-aligned to their correct positions as per current FAA airport diagram and verified from Google Earth.
• All Gates, Cargo Ramps and other ramps, including GA parking, repositioned according to FAA charts.
• Autogen scenery appearing on or close to the adjusted taxiways moved.
• Service Vehicle routes changed to a more realistic layout and to avoid interference with taxiing aircraft.
• All taxiway signs re-positioned and amended as needed.
• Fire station, vegetation, static vehicles, cargo crates, Boat facility north of the airport and more added.
• Extra fuel trucks added.
• Helicopter pad with start position added.
• Parking lots with lighting and cars added (cars and lighting will only show with Acceleration package).
• Landclass for all islands which make up Bermuda added.

Special Notes:

The default landclass for the islands of Bermuda look like desert land with little vegetation and no color. I have added some landclass. I have included a second TXKF file called which is needed along with the TXKF BGL file.
