Yes.. rather nice that. I think I'll take a look. Cheers Peter ;)

Edit.. I can't see where it's available from so I'll check the main 2 first :)

Hi Peter :hello:

Tks ;) I found one file around a year old and a-n-other 5 years old. The latest had that filename so I'll download it now knowing it's the right one :thumbsup:

EDIT..
Very nice Peter. Have a look over on the military side and in between the parked C130 and a yellow hangar.. there's a hangar with brown doors facing you (presuming that you're looking toward the hangars :lol: ) that has a flashing red beacon close to it but, as far as I can make out, is not attached to anything :-O Can't see me spending much time on the military side so it doesn't really matter but I'd be interested to see if you see this non-attached beacon too :)

Yes I've found that Dave...It is rather strange as its position is not fixed...As I walk up to it, its size increases a bit but it wanders about and as you say it is not fixed to anything...Mystery! :dunno:

Cheers Peter.. a little Easter Egg for us :lol:

When I first noticed it, I was doing a tour in the AHF Alouette and thought I was seeing a reflection of one of my beacons. It looked a little odd so I went outside and there it was.. :-O
It shouldn't detract from what is a darned good airport though and I've just loaded WOAI MEA, EL AL and Gulf Air to see what pop's in ;) Pretty much the full extent of the Trident ops.. I do hope I see one there on what will be one of my infrequent visits ;)

I hope none of my Tridents finds this parking slot..

Dave there was a new AFCAD in the Zip to replace the previous that had some parking errors...Also a few textures and bit to manually add...All covered in the readme.

Hi Peter :hello:

Believe it or not, I read that and included the new afcad and all the new textures. It mentioned 6 in para 3 but there were actually 7 (just to prove I was paying attention) :lol: To prove to myself I'm not a complete dingbat.. I've checked the AF2 file included in the zip and the one in the scenery folder and they are one and the same.. 23.5.2009 12:37. That position is over by J8/J9 if I remember right :)

Yes I counted seven as well...However, one of those seven had the same date and time as the one it replaced ;)
