FS2020 Section

NOTE: Your sim must be up to date with all world updates and POI's installed. You do not need any photogrammetry installed,  just the base world updates as I borrow scenery from those resources. This project makes extensive use of the UK2000 Scenery Library which is free in the Marketplace. Please make sure you have it installed.

This is the full release of Newman airport, combiing Stage 1 and Stage 2 and is now complete with the surrounding scenery. Newman Airport serves one of Australia's largest mining operations, employing over 1000 people and is one of the more popular mine sites on the FIFO system.

I hope you enjoy this mod, I have attempted to keep as close to the layout as possible, but I have taken the liberty to exercise creative license to make this airport attractive as well as being functional. A lot of extra detail, effort and thought has gone into this one.

COMPLETE REBUILD:

• Payware quality as is expected by my followers.
• Full overhaul from the ground up, a complete rebuild.

Tip:
Don't forget to reload your Little Navmap scenery library now and then in order to keep your new airfields accurately portrayed within it. This way all your new taxiway designations are updated among other things.

LNM automatically searches through your community folder during the process which runs in the background so you can keep simming.

From the menu bar of LNM:  Scenery Library | Load Scenery Library | press Load. When finished, press Use Database.

Instructions:
