Ghost Airports PA - Update 1. Update #1 for Ghost Airports Collection - Pennsylvania (GHOST_AIRPORT_COLLECTION_PENNSYLVANIA.ZIP). Updates four intermediate lighted airfields from the New York to Chicago Federal Lighted Airway found on 1940 Cleveland Sectional Chart plus updates the original readme file. Additional information files included. By Richard O. Finley.

This update makes a few changes I noticed after the originals were posted. They only affect the four lighted auxiliary airports from the 1940 Cleveland Sectional chart. The biggest change is the addition of a beacon tower on a concrete pad shaped like an arrow at each of those four airports. It is a daytime decoration (eye candy) only since Airport Design Editor does not support operating beacons at this time. It also updates the original readme file (allow the unzip tro overwrite that one too).

Installation:
This is very simple. Now that you have unzipped the downloaded file, put all resulting .BGL files in ~~microsoft flight simulator X\addon scenery\scenery. Allow it to overwrite the old files.

This scenery is released as Freeware.
