    Tribhuvan Intl. Airport (VNKT) - Runway Profile Hacks - Image 1

    Description

    * The Main File is used with the version by TurtleTank1997, while the extra one is used with the version by KapilGyawali. Do not get confused otherwise they won't be rendered properly *

    Flights between Paro and Kathmandu is very scenic, which you can see Mt. Everest from the aircraft. Tribhuvan Intl. Airport by both   KapilGyawali and TurtleTank1997 look great, but the terraforming for them are not accurate by totally flattening the whole airport area, which also affects the accuracy of VNAV during RNAV approaches. Although I think it is somehow irrespectful to make a mod over another mod, it is essential to do so for the said technical reasons.

    The runway profile of Tribhuvan Intl. is pretty uneven, where the elevation difference between threshold of both ends is 75ft. On the other hand, the elevation difference between the parkings bays are also as much as 4m.

    Tips for operating on Runway 20:

    • Single-engine taxi before departure or after landing is not recommended, as you may need some more power to climb the part of the airport with a little bit steep slope
    • Use reverse thrust anyway after touchdown to give more braking force as the runway is sloped downwards. There is no noise abatement limitation on this airport, don't worry. 

    I have made separate versions to give hacks into the airport for the two creators. I haven't tested them thoroughly on FS2024 but it seems that there is no obvious problem.
