FSX EGBE Coventry UK Scenery

EGBE Coventry UK. Updated scenery of the base version with added buildings, perimeter roads, navaids and static objects. Runway 17/35 closed. This is a fictional enhancement, not intended to be 100% accurate, but respects the original airfield layout and surrounds. Runway markings courtesy of FSX Runway Numbers And Markings freeware add-on by Lance Tucker (RWY_MARK.ZIP); not a pre-requisite but recommended. By John Ball.

Scenery - EGBE Coventry UK (CVT).

For use with base FSX scenery ie not tested with any add-ons.

An enhancement of the basic FSX representation of Coventry Airport.

The Scenery is extremely basic in the FSX version. This is a reasonably accurate scenery, with added details around the airfield and custom marked runway touchdown zones.

(FSX Runway Numbers And Markings freeware add-on by Lance Tucker required for full realism but not essential if you can't or don't want to download it) (file name rwy_mark.zip, or search for FSX Runway Numbers And Markings)

Runway 05/23 total length 6600 feet (2010m). Displaced thresholds of 600 feet (183m) on rw05 and 700 feet (213m) on rw23 mean the marked runway length is 5300 feet between thresholds. FSX does not allow full TDZ markings on runways less than 6000 feet. The TDZ has hand-placed markings - these are contained in the Lance Tucker object library above. If you do not install these objects the scenery will work fine albeit without TDZ markings on the runway. Each end is marked with 500 foot bars, 1000 foot uk-style brackets, 1500 and 2000 foot bars, as in real life. PAPI resited at 1000 feet from thr both rwys.

I have added small turning areas at runway ends, which are not present in real life but help to turn a large aircraft.

Added buildings, perimeter roads, navaids and static objects. Runway 17/35 closed. This is a fictional enhancement, not intended to be 100% accurate, but respects the original airfield layout and surrounds.

INSTALLATION:

1) Paste all EGBE_ADEX files (4 in total) into your main FSX\Addon Scenery\Scenery folder.

2) You should also download and install file - rwy_mark.zip. Follow installation instructions included. A small file and easy to install.

Run FSX and go to airport EGBE - UK, Coventry.

This works fine with my system. I don't see any reason why it should not work for you if installed as above. Hope it works fine and you enjoy the scenery.
