Great looking little airfield. The Flying Reporter on YouTube brought my attention to this field in his latest video. I can't wait to try it out!

I hope you enjoy it! I love The Flying Reporter's videos and I done my circuit training at Cumbernauld so it was great to see it get some coverage.

Keep an eye on the request for it ( https://flightsim.to/request/scenery/2205/egpt-perth-airport ) if you haven't already so you'll know if me or someone else decides to do it.

Would you be interested in doing Fife Airport (EGPJ) with custom buildings?

I'm working on EGEO Oban just now and I'm pretty busy apart from that, but I'm definitely keen on doing Fife in the future. I've got your request for it on here bookmarked so if nobody beats me to it I'll let you know when I start on it
