Description
Here's my next instalment of MSFS's missing airfields of Australia. Today's add-on covers the Apple Isle (aka Tasmania) and some of its islands in Bass Strait. Lots of hills and mountains in Tasmania, so no surprise that almost every single airfield has a slope of some sort, and several are one-way strips.
Update Version 0.2.0Lots of changes. I've added 25 new airfields to the 20 that were included in the original version. I've also changed several of my fictional ICAO codes to the official ones I managed to identify. PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOU DELETE ALL THE OLD YTxx FOLDERS FROM YOUR COMMUNITY FOLDER TO AVOID ANY ISSUES BEFORE INSTALLING THIS UPDATE. Also, rather than listing the details of 45 airfields in this crowded space, I have moved them to a PDF file included in the download.
Please also make sure that you have installed the latest versions of the dependencies, particulalry colinj's object library, as I have replaced hangars included as model libs in the original versions with the ones from his library.
Note 1. The download comes in two separate files. 44 airfields are in the main download. YDLI Deal Island is in the other one. Reason being, Deal Island is just a blob in default MSFS, so I have used Google imagery for this scenery. However, even at the relative low resolution I have implemented, that's still 250MB to cover the island. Also, and you probably know this already if you have a low-medium spec system, flying over/near large areas of Google aerial imagery may cause poor performance of the sim. I'll leave it up to you to decide.
Note 2. I'm experiencing some weird mesh behaviour around Redbanks (YT13). I initially thought this was caused by my runway terraforming, but the mesh morphing appears to happen with or without my mods, so I believe there's something wrong with the sim's mesh data in that area, not my mod.
Installation
Simply copy the included folders into your Community folder. (If you are updating this scenery to a newer version, first delete the existing folders of the same name.)
Dependencies
You may wish to install my Australian Salt Lakes Fix mod (I highly recommend it!), as many of the airfields covered in this pack are near dry/salt lakes, which in the default sim contain unrealistic amounts of water.
In addition, you may also want to consider the excellent Powerline and Solar Farms mod for some added realism. Tasmania has powerlines aplenty!
To see the scenery objects I've placed, you will need to have the following object libraries installed:

My appreciation also goes to Windhover for his Open Hangar Library.
Many thanks to the library object developers for making them available!
[Note: the scenery will function without these libraries, but will look less interesting.]

Btw. After reading where you are from, I feel like a cold and frothy drink right now. Flying is done for the day :-) Unfortunately they don't sell your excellent local beverage around here, at least not "vom Fass". Ah well...next time I get to NRW. Prost!
