As I don't like the google maps capture of this 1220 feet tower (yes it's higher than the Eifel tower Paris), I've decided to create it myself with Blender. Took me many hours and there still is work left to do.
If you already downloaded a google maps capture of this tower and you prefer this one, be sure you delete the 'old' file from the community folder before you install this MOD.
Expected :
- To build a version for X-Mas with 120 LED lights (separate upload). I've already managed to place the light points but these lights aren't visible from distance. Lighting in MSFS2020 is really a p... in the a...

Thanks for the compliment and I've written a PM to let you know that I've uploaded the requested Alticom tower. Kind regards AxeV

Hi Axev. I immediately downloaded the Alticom Tower in Hoogersmilde and placed it in the Communitymap after reading your message in response to my enthusiastic response about the Gerbrandy Tower.
I flew straight to the location with my Cessna and all I can say is AMAZING!
The tower is exactly in the right place where it actually stands in Hoogersmilde.
The proportions are good and the details are very beautiful and exactly as they are in reality.
I will be using it a lot and would like to compliment you again on your work. It's great that there are people who can do this.
Thank you very much for this Add-on!

Thanks for the compliment. I'll try to make an X-Mas version but it depends if I'll be able to create bright lights which can be seen from a certain distance. Until now I didn't manage.

Very nice addition to the Dutch flying experience. Thank you very much.
I made an image and placed it in the user gallery.
We also often visit Hoogersmilde in the Dutch province Drenthe. We miss the Alticom tower there very much when we fly there. I think it is almost the same tower as the Gerbrandy tower.
Maybe you could also make a duplicate or customized MOD of the Gerbrandy tower to put there.
These are the coordinates of the tower of Hoogersmilde: 52.9027962480172, 6.403618965695138.
