This package refines EHGR Gilze Rijen Air Base within FSX, adding high-fidelity details across runways, hangars, and surrounding terrain. It forms part of the larger NL2000 v4 suite, which models the entirety of the Netherlands as a modular scenery offering. Created by The Netherlands 2000 Scenery Design Team, this particular release requires the NL2000 v4.0.20 installer for proper integration, ensuring that Gilze Rijen Air Base merges smoothly with other regional enhancements. Although compact in size, it introduces precise ground textures, optimized 3D structures, and faithful representation of an airbase that is historically significant to the Royal Netherlands Air Force.

Precision at Gilze Rijen Air Base

Gilze Rijen Air Base sits in the province of North Brabant and has long served as a pivotal training facility. In this add-on, it features accurately placed lighting arrays, runway signage, and advanced ground coloration that captures the airbase’s distinctive layout. Designers have incorporated elements such as static objects and realistic apron markings, ensuring each detail is true to its real-world counterpart.

Structure Modeling and Texturing

Buildings, control towers, and maintenance hangars incorporate hand-crafted modeling, reflecting authentic profiles and dimensioning. Textures utilize photoreal sources for crisp detail, while roof and wall patterns highlight subtle weathering. This method delivers a natural look under both daytime and nighttime conditions.

Modular Concept Within NL2000 v4

The Netherlands 2000 Scenery Design Team has divided the full country into packages for targeted updates. Gilze Rijen’s expansion seamlessly blends with other segments, preserving a cohesive environment. You can merge this release with the broader NL2000 suite to enjoy high-resolution coverage of fields, roads, and urban areas for the entire nation.

Required Installer and Deployment

In order to set up this EHGR Gilze Rijen Air Base package, the NL2000 v4.0.20 installer must be used. Through that application, the scenery is selected and integrated, allowing you to place the installation files in the correct simulator directory. After you enable the scenery within FSX, the enhancements will be visible with no further configuration.

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.

    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.
