Flight Simulator X Prepar3D

Experience a refined depiction of Charles M. Schulz – Sonoma County Airport in Santa Rosa, California, meticulously crafted by Clear Sky Simulations. This freeware package enhances the default layout within Microsoft Flight Simulator X, providing updated taxiway geometry, parking configurations, and optimized runway approaches to better reflect real-world operations. Located near the heart of wine country, the airport (identified as KSTS) typically accommodates a variety of regional traffic and occasional charter services.

Focused Airport Refinements

The package employs BGL files compiled through Airport Design Editor, which helps ensure accurate markings and geometry. Buildings, hangars, and other scenery objects stem from default FSX libraries and appear when graphics settings are at least set to Normal. These modifications encompass apron corrections, taxiway alignments, and an improved gates layout, reflecting the current airport configuration.

Highlighting Key File Details

This set includes two primary BGL files:

KSTS_CSS.BGL: Main layout file, reworking taxiways, ramps, and position data.
KSTS_CSS_CVX.BGL: Supplementary file controlling terrain and exclusion regions for accurate ground textures.

Scenery Integration Procedure

Copy KSTS_CSS.BGL and KSTS_CSS_CVX.BGL into your Flight Simulator X Addon Scenery/Scenery folder.
Launch Microsoft Flight Simulator X and the enhanced scenery elements will be active.

Removing These Files

Take out KSTS_CSS.BGL and KSTS_CSS_CVX.BGL from the same Addon Scenery/Scenery directory.
Reload Microsoft Flight Simulator X to restore default configuration.
