Description
Alice Springs Airport (ICAO: YBAS) is an Australian regional airport 7 nautical miles (13 km; 8.1 mi) south of Alice Springs, Northern Territory.
The airport has two runways, the larger of which can accommodate the Airbus A380, Boeing 747 and 777 landing (but not a fully laden takeoff due to high temperatures and the runway length). The only scheduled flights using the airport are domestic, although international charters do use the airport on occasions. The airport is not subject to a curfew and operates 24 hours a day.

On 27 May 2011 it was announced that Alice Springs Airport had been selected to be the first large-scale aircraft boneyard outside the United States.The facility, which commenced operation in June 2014, is operated by Asia Pacific Aircraft Storage Ltd. APAS chose Alice Springs because its dry, arid climate is perfect for aircraft storage and preservation. The facility will store commercial aircraft not in use, as well as those planes that have been decommissioned from service and which will be stripped of parts to be recycled, such as engines, electronics and wiring.

Nice to have a decent YBAS.
A couple of things I noticed
the gate numbers don't match the chartsthe PAPIs seem to be wrong, they were showing all whites for me no matter the approach angle.couldn't be sure, because the PAPIs were all white, but it seemed like the approach was coming in early/low on the ILS.Thanks for making this, was nice to fly into for the first time (after navigating the above)

I'm glad someone has given Alice some attention, but i think this airport needs to be recreated by Orbx or whomever, I work at the aircraft storage facility in Alice and it is absolutely staggering seeing over 100 aircraft parked in the desert mainly wide body aircraft including A380s. I think it would be such a unique scenery addon for MSFS.
