Portland Internatioal Airport Scenery.

This is an improved version of the stock KPDX (Portland International Airport) located in Portland, Oregon, USA. Many changes and additions have been made to include (1) a new terminal building which has been placed so automobile traffic does run through it, (2) other buildings have been moved to avoid the traffic and to be more accurately placed, (3) numerous gates have been added and all have been given general or specific airline assignments including Fedex and UPS, (4) the control tower has been moved to the correct location, (5) a parking lot has been added plus (5) numerous other changes and additions.

Airport Design Editor (ADE), version 1.37.05 was used for this entire project. Thanks to Jon (Scruffyduck) for a great product. The project has been tested with World of AI, FSGenesis terrain mesh and land class, Ultimate Terrain X (UTX) and Ground Environment X (GTX).

Several complexity settings have been made in FSX. Go to Options>Settings>Display...>Settings-Display>Scenery>Scenery objects>scenery complexity.

Very Sparse – terminal building, control tower and parking garage
Dense – remaining buildings and half of the jetways
Very Dense – remaining jetways and some static objects (planes, cars and landscape)
Extremely Dense – remaining static objects

INSTALLATION

Extract and place the two bgl files (KPDX_ADE_DKR.BGL and KPDX_ADE_DKR_CVX.bgl) into the Addon Scenery>Scenery folder and restart FSX.

How to install this mod

FSX / P3D scenery
  1. Extract the downloaded archive

    Use 7-Zip (free) or WinRAR to extract the ZIP to a temporary folder. Don't install while still zipped — the simulator can't read inside ZIP files.
  2. Place scenery in Addon Scenery

    Create a folder under FSX\Addon Scenery\ containing scenery and texture sub-folders.
  3. Activate in Scenery Library

    In FSX, go to Settings → Scenery Library → Add Area. Higher priority means it overrides lower entries for the same location.
  4. Always read the included readme

    Every mod ships with a readme.txt or README file. It tells you exactly where files go, what dependencies are needed, and any quirks specific to this add-on.
