FSX Henri Coanda Airport Scenery

Henri Coanda Airport (LROP), Bucharest, Romania. This airport update was designed with the latest version of ADE (Airport Design Editor) and made only for the FSX default airport. The terminal rebuild includes the new terminal extension with 18 gates all with animated jetways, assigned parking with extra parking, taxiways and taxi signs updated, extra fuel trucks, support vehicle roads rebuilt and many other improvements. Airport views are from the roof of the control tower (when in tower view). By Ray Smith.

There are 2 BGL files: LROP_ADE_RS.BGL and a LROP_ADE_OBJ.BGL file.

The LROP_ADE_RS.BGL file is the Main airport file.
The LROP_ADE_OBJ.BGL file is the scenery objects file and should always be used, Please make sure this file goes into the correct folder.

To Install:

1. Take the LROP_ADE_RS.BGL file and place it into: Flight Simulator X/Addon Scenery/scenery folder.

2. Take the LROP_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:

NOTE: If you have already done this with any of my other airports then this step is not necessary.

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.

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

IMPORTANT NOTE: PLEASE ONLY USE THE LROP_RS.BGL FILE in the Addon Scenery/scenery folder: i.e: make sure there is only my LROP_RS.BGL FILE in the Addon Scenery/scenery folder at any time, remove/delete any other LROP.bgl file to avoid incorrect parking and other airport conflicts.

To Uninstall:

1. Delete/remove the BGL files and the default will then be active.

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

TIP: when at LROP 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.
