Hi guys
can anyone help me
i am wanting to put all the little wee short mountainous airstrips we have round here (Nz) in fs 02
i dont need anything fancy but as long as they are dirt strips i;ll be happy
later on i want to add the superphospate bins and associated stuff to them but as long as i can land on them for now i'll be happy
most of them are downhill sloping or split level (flat then a down hill step of say 8-9 feet then flat or slightly downhill again)
any help is appeciated thanks guys

cheers
RIK

Hi Platanim - welcome.

You can use the original AFCAD with FS02 - AFCAD2 will only work with FS04. There's a little more compiling work to do with it but it'll do the job of putting in grass airstrips.

Also, you could download the add-on terrain mesh for NZ from the downloads section - it'll make the topography better than the default.

You can also use a program like RWY12 to put in miscellaneous objects like piles of crates, drums, light aircraft etc. You'll find AFCAD and RWY12 easily by googling.

;)
