FSX Punta Raisi Airport Scenery

Scenery Punta Raisi Airport (LICJ), Palermo, Italy. Includes one version with the crosswind runway activated and one without. Adds assigned parking, extra fuel trucks, support vehicle roads and more. By Ray Smith.

This airport was designed with the latest version of ADE(v1.47) and made only for the FSX default airport: one file with the Crosswind rwy activated and in full operation, now activated by ADE where both runways will be used for takeoff/landing and one file as the default runway operation: assigned parking with extra parking, extra fuel trucks, support vehicle roads rebuilt, helipad 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 3 BGL files: LICJ_ADE_RS.BGL, LICJ_ADE_CW_RS.BGL and a LICJ_ADE_OBJ.BGL file.

The LICJ_ADE_CW_RS.BGL version is with the crosswind rwy activated and in full operation.
The LICJ_ADE_RS.BGL version is the same as the default rwy operation.
Assigned parking is the same in both.
The LICJ_ADE_OBJ.BGL is the scenery objects file and should always be used with either RS.BGL file.
Please make sure this goes into the correct folder.

To Install:

1. Take the LICJ_RS_BGL file of your choice and place it into: Flight Simulator X/Addon Scenery/scenery folder.

2. Take the LICJ_ADE_OBJ.BGL file and place it into: Flight Simulator X/Scenery/Global/scenery folder.

3. There are jetway extensions, and to see these you need to add the textures for them, please follow these steps:

Browse to the FSX\Scenery\NAME\Texture folder. Go down the list until you see jfk_jetway.dds (day texture) and jfk_jetway_LM.dds (night texture). "COPY" them from that folder and "PASTE" them into the Scenery\Global\Texture folder. This is not required if you have already done this with any of my previous airports.

4. Start up the Flight Sim and the changes will be present.

IMPORTANT NOTE: PLEASE ONLY USE ONE LICJ_RS.BGL FILE AT A TIME:
i.e: make sure there is only ONE LICJ.BGL FILE in the Addon Scenery/scenery folder at any time, remove/delete any other LICJ.bgl to avoid incorrect parking and other airport conflicts.

PLEASE NOTE: when using ATIS with the LICJ_ADE_CW_RS.BGL file you will hear the fake rwy's as well as the airport runways, this is the method used in activating non parallel runway's and should be ignored or if preferred use the version LICJ_ADE_RS.BGL

To Uninstall:

1. Delete/remove the BGL files 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 LICJ 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.
