FSX Christchurch International Scenery

Christchurch International Airport (NZCH), New Zealand, v2. Updates the default scenery. Includes two versions, one with the crosswind runway activated and one without. Also includes updated taxiways, taxiway signs, assigned parking, extra fuel truck and other improvements. By Ray Smith.

ADE Home Edition (Freeware) was used to design these BGL files: This is an update of my previous version, my previous version not required, these 2 files are only for the FSX default airport: one with the Xwind rwy 11/29 activated where both rwy's will now be used for takeoff/landing and one as default: all taxiways now updated to the Nov 07 AIP NZ ground movement charts, all taxisigns changed to match the taxiways with missing taxisigns added, assigned parking with extra parking, and for the Canterbury Aero Club the grass rwy 2L/20R is now open and start locations added, support vehicle roads rebuilt, extra fuel trucks and several other improvements, airport views are from the roof of control tower (when in tower view) fully tested with Ultimate Traffic/WOAI but not required, please view the readme before installation

There are 2 BGL files: NZCH_ADE_RS.BGL and NZCH_ADE_CW_RS.BGL

The 'NZCH_ADE_CW_RS.BGL' version is with the Xwind rwy activated, the other version NZCH_ADE_RS.BGLis without parking is the same in both......

NOTE: PLEASE ONLY USE ONE BGL FILE AT A TIME:
ie: make sure there is only ONE 'NZCH.BGL' FILE in the Addon Scenery/scenery folder at any time, remove/delete any other NZCH.bgl

PLEASE NOTE: when using ATIS with the NZCH_ADE_CW_RS.BGL file you will hear the fake rwy's, this is the method used in activating Xwind rwy's created by Jim Vile and should be ignored or if prefered use the version NZCH_ADE_RS.BGL

To Install:

1. simply take the BGL file of your choice and place it into: Flight Simulator X/Addon Scenery/scenery folder.

2. Start up the Flight sim and the changes will be present.

To Uninstall:

1. Delete the BGL file and the default will then be active.

TIP: when at NZCH in tower view: go to your control settings and look for the "View track/pan Toggle" allocate a keyboard key stroke to it (i allocated a button on my X52 controller) this will unlock the user aircraft, then you can use the hat switch to pan 360 degrees around the airport, hitting the key stroke again (in my case a button) will return you to the user aircraft position

Enjoy and happy flying.
