    LVGZ - Yasser Arafat International Airport, Gaza - Image 1

    Description

    One for those Gazans with broken wings. This airport had a very short life indeed but I thought it would be fun to fly from.

    For a site of national importance it's quite amazing how little visual info there is about it.

    There is no photographic record I could find of the layout of the buildings, or the buildings, other than one 2008 satellite shot of the ruins so it's partially made up and partially guessed. You do see the odd glimpse of a hangar on Youtube but Bill Clinton is usually in the way.

    Rather embarrassingly if you Google image the airport this mod is now one of the most prominent results. Without an aerial image and more refs I'm afraid this is always going to be pretty terrible. 

    The terminal is the most, and pretty much only, photographed building but there's no way of replicating it with SDK items so I just did a weird-looking lash up with some others.

    There are several large parking spots for airliners on the main apron and some small GA ones to the side plus a helipad. Fuel trucks and a fuel bay are available. 

    V 1.4

    Corrects the ICAO so this navigation mod - https://flightsim.to/file/81547/gaza-navaids-rfh-ndb-and-gza-vor can be used correctly. 

    Removes some buildings that clearly weren't there originally.

    While I'm not sure this can truly be considered Palestinian territory, I’m hopeful for a 2024 version of this airport that remains fundamentally intact.

    I think it will need someone else who's better at filling in the unknown parts because there isn't enough for me to work with.

    I can't even find a map of the full layout of the buildings, let alone ground markings.

    I'll see if there's more out there somewhere.

    Appreciate this effort.
    Just question about the ILS, it didn't work.. and I noticed something in the description above mentioning something about the ILS not working? Is there some limitation impacting this or is there hope it will be fixed in the future? Thanks.

    All Buildings are incorrect in the Internet you can find many Fotos at the real Main Building Tower and so on before Gaza Airport was destroyed in 2001
    It would be nice to Improved the Airport to have the real atmosphäre when LVGZ was working !
