How do you add airfields

Postby CaptainCub » Thu Mar 27, 2003 1:13 pm

I've got some relatives up in Wisconsin who have a grass airstrip on their farmland. (Two of my cousins are pilots and one is restoring a Stearman Biplane) What I'd like to do is recreate the strip, complete with the big corrurgated hanger and put it in FS2K2 so I can fly in and out of it. Is there software available that can help me do this?

I just use FLight Simulator Scenery creator and plot the coordinates, and then place a runway right in the middle.

Is that part of the FS2K2 Package, or is a seperate item? Also how would I add buildings? (I already created models of their house and barn for Train Simulator and was wondering if I could drop them in as well.)

You can get Flight Sim Scenery Creator here at Simviation or at Avsim (basically evrywhere) You can add buildings to the scenry the same way you add runways; you just plot the coordinates and insert them into the scenery. FSSC includes some tutorials that you should read before creating the scenery. And BTW, to add some houses or good quality buildings, its best to download the macros on this site.

with that is it possible to add buildings and things to an already existing airport?
