FSX George Bush Intercontinental Scenery

George Bush Intercontinental Airport (KIAH), Texas (TX). Includes two versions, one with crosswind runways operating and one with just the default two runway operation. Also, taxiways have been updated, assigned parking added, fuel trucks added, vehicle roads rebuilt and more. By Ray Smith.

These 2 updates were designed with the latest version of ADE (v1.37) and made only for the FSX default airport my previous version not required: one version with Crosswind rwy's operating, now activated by ADE where all 5 rwy's will be used for takeoff/landing and one as the default 2 rwy operation: Taxiways and taxi signs updated, assigned parking with extra parking, extra fuel trucks, support vehicle roads rebuilt and many other improvements, airport views are from inside the control tower (when in tower view) please view the readme before installation.

There are 2 BGL files: KIAH_ADE_RS.BGL and KIAH_ADE_CW_RS.BGL

The 'KIAH_ADE_CW_RS.BGL' version is with the Xwind rwys activated and in full operation, the other version KIAH_ADE_RS.BGLis without. Parking is the same in both.

PLEASE NOTE: when using ATIS with the KIAH_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 KIAH_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. Overwrite my previous version if you are using it or remove/delete it.

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

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

And my ever enduring wife to put up with the hours spent making these files.

TIP: when at KIAH 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.
