    Ameland Airport (EHAL) - Image 1

    Description

    This is a small general aviation airport on the frisian island Ameland, Netherlands. The scenery covers the whole area of the airport including the solar park. The complete feature list can be found below. All custom buildings are completely handcrafted.

    All information, procedures, and charts for your real or virtual flight to Ameland Airport can be found on the official website: https://www.ehal.nl

    ATTENTION: The Ameland lighthouse is not part of this scenery anymore. It is now distributed with my Lighthouses Wadden Sea NL scenery in order avoid conflicts between both packages and for a clear  distinction between airports and landmarks. However, it comes in a separate directory to allow for installing the Ameland lighthouse without installing all other lighthouses.

    If you like my scenery, I would be very happy about a small donation to buy me a coffee or a beer. This is of course 100% optional.

    It works very well in FS2020 but completely not in 2024 . All that you see is a general generate building and tower . Strange! The previous version works fine in 2024. Maybe the latest 2024 version is the cause of it. I don't know, it is a pity.

    Thanks for the information! That's indeed strange. I'll check with a friend whether we can reproduce it.

    Great looking airport! Just as an FYI, here's a screenshot showing the issues under FS2024. There's a glider right on the runway start that intersects with the spawn point of the player plane. Also, looks like one of the parking spots is too large for this airport as MSFS keeps spawning airliners there. :) So just moving those gliders down a bit from the runway start and adjusting that large parking spot would likely make things 100% with both sims. (See captures)

    Thanks for the information! Those glides are automatically spawned by MSFS2024, which does not happen in 2020. I will see what I can do about it. The spawning at parking positions appears to be different in 2024 as well, since 2020 doesn't spawn airliners at medium parking positions (at least I haven't seen this). I will change all of them to small, this should resolve the issue.

    Could you please remove the assets on the runway in msfs 2024?

    6 months ago

    Unfortunately, I don't have MSFS2024 yet. I removed some vegetation on approach to 26 and updated the exclusion zone, I hope this helps for 2024 as well.

    In 2024 staan er assets aan het begin van de baan. Je moet dus daar over heen vliegen als je wilt landen.

    Thanks for the remark! Do you mean in the sim or in the real world?

    I just released a new version which fixes the issues after World Update IV. Furthermore, the runway numbers have been updated according to real-world changes.

    The lighthouses on Schier are also still there.

    Real nice job.
    But with the benelux update, the tower and airportbuilding groundlevel is different from the airport and at the same time the bornrif lighthouse is gone, but not Brandaris.

    about 5 years ago

    Thanks for the bug report! I'm already aware of the elevation issue, which also breaks the appearance of the fences. There is an additional problem with the ground coloring that was introduced with the Benelux update. I'll check the lighthouse as well.

    Wow! I remember loading into this airfield with the default scenery and feeling lost, the grass strips and taxiways are pretty hard to see plus the hanger and tower area in the default scenery are just bad - see my video on Ameland here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3hPKdDyOgc

    about 5 years ago

    I just released a new version that fixes the issues with World Update IV. I checked the lighthouses and they are fine on installation, including the one on Ameland. Would you mind to check if it is properly installed and try to reinstall it? Note that it doesn't come with the EHAL package anymore and is port of the lighthouse package now. There it is located in a separate folder (sinusjaycee-lighthouse-ameland).

    Version History

    - Changed all parking positions to "small" to prevent jets from spawning - Changed helipad parking position to "mil cargo" to prevent aircraft from spawning - Added additional exclusion areas to prevent random gliders, trailers, and trees from spawning in MSFS2024 (thanks to DignomDesign and Garfield) - Improve internal structure of taxiways and parking positions (thanks to DignomDesign) - Removed windsocks next to runway because they are not there IRL

    Taog Lama SA315B Heer 7505 (Heeresfliegerwaffenschule)

    This add-on features a detailed livery of the SA315B Lama helicopter, replicating the Alouette II registration 7505 operated by the German Armys Heeresfliegerwaffenschule. The livery includes historically accurate colors, personalized crew uniforms, and intricate markings. While technically fictional due to the unavailability of the Alouette II model in MSFS, the Lama serves as a close approximation, enhancing the visual authenticity of the training aircraft.
