FSX Gen. Mitchell Int'l Airport Scenery

Gen. Mitchell Int'l Airport (KMKE), Milwaukee, Wisconsin (WI). Includes two versions, one with the crosswind runway in operation and one without. Features assigned parking, added gates and jetbridges, helipad, extra fuel trucks, support vehicle roads and more. By Ray Smith.

These 2 BGL files were designed with the latest version of ADE (v1.26) and made only for the FSX default airport: one with the Crosswind rwy's operating, now activated with ADE where all five rwy's will be used for takeoff/landing and one as default: assigned parking with extra parking, missing gates/annimated jetbidges added where possible, helipad added, extra fuel trucks, suport vehicle roads rebuilt and many other improvements, airport views are from the roof of the 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: KMKE_ADE_RS.BGL and KMKE_ADE_CW_RS.BGL

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

PLEASE NOTE: when using ATIS with the KMKE_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 KMKE_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.

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

To Uninstall:

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

Jim Vile for his Technique that activates crosswind runways.

TIP: when at KMKE 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.
