FSX Harris Hill Gliderport Scenery
Harris Hill Gliderport (4NY8) scenery refreshes the Elmira, New York soaring site in FSX with a second parallel runway, realistic airfield buildings, and carefully placed static gliders, aircraft, vehicles, and clutter for a lived-in feel. Uses only stock objects and aligns layout details to current airport diagrams for believable operations.
Harris Hill Gliderport (4NY8), Elmira, New York (NY). Here is an improved version of the stock Harris Hill Gliderport. It was a single runway in FSX with no buildings at all. The second parallel runway was added, along with several buildings, static gliders, planes, vehicles, and other objects. By Jim Cook.

Harris Hill Gliderport Scenery.
Here is an improved version of the stock Harris Hill Gliderport. It was a single runway in FSX with no buildings at all. The second parallel runway was added, along with several buildings, static gliders, planes, vehicles, and other objects.
Works best with Ultimate Terrain X. I also highly recommend the Low 'n Slow New York State landclass.
I use Ultimate Terrain and FSGenesis landclass but they are not required. All objects are stock FSX so no additional object libraries are needed. Updates made using AirNav diagrams and Google Earth to be as accurate as possible. All work done with Flight 1's AFX program and Instant Scenery.
INSTALLATION:
Extract the file 4NY8_AFX_JC.bgl and 4NY8_JC.bgl into your Addon Scenery/Scenery folder, re-start FSX and enjoy.

Hi, I'm late to the party. Just wanted to tell you thank you and great work. I enjoy using gliders taking off and following the susquehanna river down to scranton wilkes-barre along the way trying to hit a thermal.
