UK2000 VFR Airfields for FSX Vol 2 released!

[Ant1981]

Ok, I've installed and already having issues. The scenery is underneath and to the side of airfields, so I see a 'google map' airfield plus the Horizon one to the side.

Perhaps this needs it's own thread, not sure were to post it though!

Chaps, if you haven't yet bought VFR Airfields vol.2 (81 ADs this time) then head on over to Flightstore.co.uk, who are having a sale on, and get it for £20 (plus £2.99 postage). Ordered mine yesterday - arrived today.

Have you selected that you have the Horizon scenery installed in the UK2000 config menu?

Have you got both the UK2000 airfields and Horizon GenX installed, or just the GenX stuff?
If it's just GenX, then you may be looking at a default airfield which is incorrectly placed and doesn't line up with the photo scenery properly.

Did you remember to delete the trees?

I've only got the Horizon scenery, not the airfields add on.

That sounds like what's happened. So what do I need to do?

[Ant1981]

Ok, I think I know the solution, so I've just ordered the VFR Airfields. Expensive week for me

A bit late now, but there is a thread on the CBFS section that lists loads of freeware airfields for Horizon scenery. However, you cannot go wrong with UK2000 stuff, worth every penny!!!

So far so good with the VFR Airfields

I was hoping for more detail in the airfield lighting though, such as port and starboard papis where they exist as there are some with just port where there are actually the two - but I can edit that, plus even seeing the approach light poles, runway and taxiway lights - the actual fittings, as I've seen screen shots with those, but that's just the little things. Otherwise, very impressive.

The scenery, it's alright, nothing to shout about to be honest and it makes the ground look odd when your plane is on the ground, but from the sky it's an improvment.
