Description
This scenery airport is currently broken. I'll see if I have time in the holidays to find the issue, I've narrowed it down to one or more of the models creating a CTD, possibly connected to other sceneries (though not confirmed).
If you do download this, be aware of the possibility of a crash, I myself don't get a crash in the sim, but the scenery does crash when I build it now.
Apologies for the inconvenience. :(

Hello, once I install your airport I can neither fly into the Johannesburg area nor start a flight at surrounding airports - always CDT`S. Once I uninstall FAKT I can fly normally in that area!!!!

Morning! With some trial and error I have isolated the Kitty Hawk scenery as the one causing the CTD in the new MSFS beta.
over 3 years ago
Oh no, I'll take a look.
over 3 years ago
Hmm. Mine seems to work fine? Might be a combination of other sceneries with mine causing a CTD?
over 3 years ago
Ah I see now you said the beta. I'll have to wait for that to release then I'll take a look.

Not sure but when I disable yours it stops the CTD when I load at JHB and Lanseria

Okay. I'll wait for the beta to release, then I'll check if it happens for me as well and try and figure out the cause. Apologies for that.

Hi, thanks for doing FAKT, just love quick flights in here while flying around Pretoria, Just want to mention that the wind socks seem to be 180 degrees out, maybe have a look at that. Great job thanks again... How about doing Wonderboom Airport FAWB ? Cheers

Ohhh, I've had that said about my other sceneries too. I think its a bug on the windsock positioning. I'll take a look at this and my other sceneries.
I have FAWB on my list.
