FSX Argentine Airports Scenery

Argentine Airports scenery revitalizes six remote strips on the Andes’ eastern slopes—Andalagala, Belen, Fiambala, Frias, Tinogasta, and Chamical—with fresh airport objects, tuned landclass, and updated AFCAD layouts that keep the rugged character intact. Built for FSX, it includes a bundled object library and requires one global scenery BGL for airport buildings.

This is a group of 6 airports in Argentina on the eastern slopes of the Andes Mountain Range.

Andalaga
Belen
Fiambala
Frias
Tinogasta
Chamical

As these are all very remote airports, they are devoid of any hangars, vehicles, maintenance services, fuel, etc. in the default version of FSX. At the request of a fellow simmer I did my best to enhance these airports somewhat without making them look overdone. In some cases I adjusted the Landclass to better suit the general area, so I think they still achieve the "remote" appearance, but with a few small flourishes.

Five of the six airports are relatively close together, so the only true challenge I found was making it up and over some of the mountains to the next airport. Chamical is the exception as it is approximately 145nm from the closest other airport. The average altitude for these airports is around 4000' with some mountain peaks at about 13,000 within a relatively short distance so you can see that you better have an airplane that can handle the climb.

Most of the scenery objects are default, however one of the airports does require one scenery library and that has been included.

INSTALLATION:
The airports should remain in their folders and placed wherever you put your addon scenery. Then just activate each scenery folder in the Scenery Library. The Scenery_Object folder is done the same way.
The one exception to this is the "Airport_Buildings_AP.bgl". This file must be placed in the main FSX scenery/Global/scenery folder.
That's about all there is to it really. Load up FSX and go flying in some very remote areas of Argentina. Enjoy!!

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.
