Abingdon Scenery

Post by Chris558 »

I've just stumbled across this (didn't know it had been released!) and I'm a bit unsure about installation.

Where it says "Additional scenery required to be downloaded and installed first", does that include the folder titled "Modified textures for EA super600 hangar"? And does that refer to the following...

1.EA-Super600 Hangar by Greg Ebnit 09/18/06
note: when installed, you will need to overwrite with the modified texture files.
This will give Gregs EA-super600 hangar a very loose resembalance of'F'hangar - still learing how to use GMAX.

Also, where are the following, or are they included....?

2.Matts trees4

3.RAF Building Libraries by Ted Andrews
FS9RAFControlTowersLib
FS9RAFHangarsLib
RAFOpertationBuildingsLibFS9
raf_gse_1980s


It says available at Flightsim and Avsim...can't find 'em :dunno: Hope someone can help :)

I don't know about Abingdon but I use Ted's RAF buildings at my Stradishall...The zip file names to download are:-

fs9rafcontroltowers.zip
fs9rafhangars.zip
fs9rafoperationslib.zip
fs9rafoperationslib.zip

This is assuming that you are talking about FS9 so if you wanted his FSX stuff then you must go back to searching...It is all at AVSIM.

Thanks Peter

Saved me the trouble

By the way - once you have loaded all of his buildings it makes other scenery quite different - Including the Weston Super Mare Helicopter museum scenery for Fs9 (oh yes you also have to download some static helicopters from Hovercontrol for that one as well -- Its a little time consuming but you wind up with some nice freeware scenery in the end -- Abingdon is where I
keep by Belslow and Britannia to play with -- Oh yes and the old Beverly as well .

Ok thanks guys, I'll download the add-ons, and install them first, as it says to do.

Yes Leif, the 'Belslow' had its major(?) servicing done at 'Abbo', so would have been an occasional visitor there. Although, as they were only in service for 10 years, probably the majors only came round...once? I've never read of the Brit being serviced there, though. But I'm sure all VC10s were done there, aswell as all Hawks and Jags.

FS2004 Scenery--RAF Abingdon, UK. The base was opened in 1932, initially as a training station for RAF Bomber Command. It continued in this role throughout World War II. The station was closed in December 1992. It was taken over by the British Army and renamed Dalton Barracks. RAF Benson continues to use Abingdon as a diversion airfield and for helicopter training.
