Gran Canaria Capers
Please remove any earlier version of the 'Caldera del Bandama in Gran Canaria - Landing/Takeoff Challenge' scenery package you may have downloaded prior to installing this package.
Gran Canaria is the third largest island in the archipelago of the Canary islands. With high quality default photogrammetry the island is a pleasure to fly around. Pick a ravine and follow it into the mountains or follow the coastline to pick out your favourite spots.
This scenery package adds 16 custom airstrips to support the two airports on the island. Each of the airstrips is different but all of them are usable with a STOL capable GA plane. One of them, the Caldera del Bandama (PZ28), is only suitable for the exteme planes and pilots :)
My personal choice of plane for this bush trip is the Savage Carbon with the STOL mod by GotGravel, slow enough to enjoy the scenery and 'just' capable of getting in and out of the most challenging airstrip.
The package contains:
16 custom airstrips
PZ22 Chira Airstrip
PZ23 Roque Nublo Airstrip
PZ24 Los Caserones Airstrip
PZ25 Tabaibales Airstrip
PZ26 Arbol De Casandra Airstrip
PZ27 Las Hoyas Airstrip
PZ28 Caldera Del Bandama Airstrip (this replaces the original Landing/Take-off Challenge scenery)
PZ29 La Paterna Airstrip
PZ30 Club Aeromodelismo Airstrip
PZ31 El Moreto Airstrip
PZ32 Buenavista Airstrip
PZ33 Mundo Aborigen Airstrip
PZ34 Hoya Del Gamonal Airstrip
PZ35 Guayadeque Airstrip
PZ36 Playa De Los Tartagos Airstrip
PZ37 La Laguna Airstrip
One library (pbk-library) with custom models, the airstrip folders and library folder should be placed in your community folder.
A flight plan pf 100Nm visiting each of of the new airstrips is also included.
The scenery also uses the libraries from:

I love this package of airfields but am no longer able to get them to load in the Sim. Have deleted originals and reloaded a fresh download. They all show in my Addons Linker program as viable files with accurate file paths. I have other scenery addons that work. Scratching my head here....what am I missing?

With the sim closed, try deleting the content.xml file in the root folder of the sim. The sim will regenerate it for you when you restart the sim.
