Description
I have created a scenery of all towers (FMT Typentürme) listed here (de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_der_Typent%C3%BCrme).
This scenery is autogenerated, most of the towers are not yet modelled after their real life counterparts, but are a default tower scaled to the correct size.
I will add the models for the towers one after the other, currently modelled after real life are:
- Fernmeldeturm Hünenburg, Bielefeld
- Fernmeldeturm Jakobsberg, Porta
- Fernmeldeturm Köterberg
- Fernmeldeturm Nüttermoor, Papenburg-Leer
- Fernmeldeturm Münster
- Fernmeldeturm Nürnberger Ei
- Olympiaturm München
- Sender Westerland
- Fernmeldeturm Mannheim
- Fernmeldeturm Hamburg-Lohbrügge
Because this scenery is mostly autogenerated there could be some problems with placing, etc. (Wikipedia coordinates are not so exact). Please contact me, I will correct it asap.
Some of the tv towers have already been available in my OWL Landmarks package, please update it to the latest version, to avoid issues with double objects.
If you have already modelled one of the towers on the list, please contact me. I would be very glad to add it to this package. We could have one scenery package with all the towers vor VFR flying instead of several different packages.
Having problems with double objects? Have a look at the FAQ
Requests? I really drink a lot of coffee ;-) This speeds up my modelling, so feel free to buy me a coffee.
If you like to support me working for the freeware community: I invite you to become a member on my BuyMeACoffee Channel. Your benefits: Your requests for scenery will be handled with priority (regardless which of my projects), also you get beta access to my airfields I am currently working on (at the moment: EDVY, EDLR coming soon), before these are published.

Is this scenery already compatible with Sim Update 6? If not, I would appreciate an update a lot, the TV towers are sorely lacking in my sim now. ;) Thank you for your great work! Grüße aus Gütersloh!

Bitte die Sendetürme Marinefunksendestelle Rhauderfehn – Wikipedia
Die Marinefunksendestelle Rhauderfehn mit dem Rufzeichen DHO38 ist ein Längstwellensender der Deutschen Marine. Sie untersteht dem Marineunterstützungskommando. Die Anlage sendet seit 1984, wurde zwischen 2017 und 2019 mit Halbleitertechnik modernisiert und soll nach Planungen der Marine bis ca. 2039 in Betrieb bleiben. Die NATO-Bezeichnung der Anlage lautet NATO VLF / MSK Marinefunksendestelle Rhauderfehn. Bei der Bevölkerung im Umkreis ist sie als „Die Türme“ bekannt. Sie liegt innerhalb des Naturschutzgebiets „Esterweger Dose“.
Der Sender befindet sich in der Nähe von Saterland-Ramsloh im Landkreis Cloppenburg (Niedersachsen). Durch das Gelände der Marinefunksendestelle verlaufen die Grenzen der beiden Landkreise Cloppenburg und Leer. Fünf Antennen stehen in Ostfriesland, drei auf Cloppenburger Gebiet.

This is a great help in orientation. For orientation, these towers are defining pieces of landscape. In X-Plane I can see TV towers (X-Europe) from everywhere, however MSFS scales down LOD too early. Is there something you can set so that MSFS will show the towers from greater distances? Skyscrapers show from much further out, so it is not necessarily my buildings settings, which are on high.
Kelkheim-Eppenhain (Atzelberg) is slightly besides the VFR objects tower, it seems to be off compared to OSM and bing satellite maps.
Coordinates in OSM are https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/50.17448/8.38885
Thanks!
