Leeuwarden Air Base and Its Significance

Leeuwarden Air Base (ICAO: EHLW) is a key military installation in the northern region of the Netherlands. Its primary operations often include defense-related missions, maintenance facilities, and various operational structures. The air base is well-known for hosting annual air shows, which makes it a historical and strategic location within Dutch aviation.

Key Add-On Features for FSX

How to install this mod

FSX / P3D scenery
  1. Extract the downloaded archive

    Use 7-Zip (free) or WinRAR to extract the ZIP to a temporary folder. Don't install while still zipped — the simulator can't read inside ZIP files.
  2. Place scenery in Addon Scenery

    Create a folder under FSX\Addon Scenery\ containing scenery and texture sub-folders.
  3. Activate in Scenery Library

    In FSX, go to Settings → Scenery Library → Add Area. Higher priority means it overrides lower entries for the same location.
  4. Always read the included readme

    Every mod ships with a readme.txt or README file. It tells you exactly where files go, what dependencies are needed, and any quirks specific to this add-on.
