FSX FL Jacksonville International Scenery

Jacksonville International Airport (KJAX), Florida (FL). Includes operating crosswind runway. Adds extra parking, new control tower, cargo buildings, extra fuel truck, lighted helipad, support vehicle roads and more. By Ray Smith.

I have given this airport a total makeover designed with the latest version of ADE(v1.37) and made only for the FSX default airport: one with the Crosswind rwy activated and in full operation, now activated by ADE where both rwy's will be used for takeoff/landing and one file as the default rwy operation: the holdshort problem at rwy 13 (ANG side) is now fixed, assigned parking with extra parking, new control tower, new cargo buildings, extra fuel trucks, lighted helipad, support vehicle roads rebuilt and many other improvements, airport views are from the roof of the control tower (when in tower view) please view the readme before installation

There are 2 BGL files: KJAX_ADE_RS.BGL and KJAX_ADE_CW_RS.BGL

The 'KJAX_ADE_CW_RS.BGL' version is with the Xwind rwy activated and in full operation, the other version KJAX_ADE_RS.BGLis without. Parking is the same in both.

PLEASE NOTE: when using ATIS with the KJAX_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 KJAX_ADE_RS.BGL

NOTE: For those that have Acceleration installed will see extra flood lighting in the Cargo area and some other areas.

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.

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