FSX Alfs UK Airvields Volume 23 Scenery

Alf’s UK Airvields Volume 23 enhances three under-modeled UK strips—Audley End (X3AE), Beccles (EGSM), and Gamston (Retford) (EGNE)—with upgraded airports, custom objects, and improved ground detail guided by aerial references. Built for FSX, it blends with default scenery for more convincing low-level VFR flying and circuit work.

In FSX scenery there are still many small airfields in the UK with little or no details. I have tried to improve this in a small way. I do not not aim to make them accurate, only better.

They were compiled using aerial views from Google Earth, Pooleys UK Flight Guide, and the FSX SDK Object Placement Tool and Airport Design Editor v1.47. Extra items were produced using Instant Object Maker v1.2.

I partly use the standard FSX scenery objects but for items that combinations of FSX objects could not mimic I have made dedicated objects. I have also started adding a few landclass 'objects' using Google Earth. I hope it does improve some of the smaller airfields. It was designed to use with FSX SP2 so there may be problems if SP1 and SP2 are not installed. NOTE: The sceneries were made to fit into the FSX standard scenery, discrepancies may occur with photo-realistic scenery.

Acknowledgment:
Beccles was requested by Gerry Francis. I am indebted to Gerry who visited the airfield several times to take photographs, gave advice and later acted as Beta tester. If you have a local small airfield you'd like done and can provide the same cooperation then feel free to contact me-though I make no promises!

Installing:
First unzip files into a temporary folder. See ReadMe texts in appropriate folders. (See my Windows 7 Read-Me) To uninstall just remove the files again.

This Volume consists of:

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.

    Great service but please note that at Gamston the large hanger on the pan in front of the control tower does not exist in any form. I cannot find any evidence for it on Google Earth or in Wikipedia's history entry. The rest of the buildings are excellent but the area of that large hangar is simply a tarmac pan often used for refuelling.
