    Description

    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.

    sorry I didn't explain it correctly. I had posted the Caldera del Bandama on Flightsim.to as a separate scenery pack. That old version is now superseded by the version contained in this megpack.

    just delete the standalone version of the Caldera del Bandama landing challenge scenery folder IF you downloaded it when I originally posted it here https://www.flightsim.to/file/13530/caldera-del-bandama-in-gran-canaria-landing-takeoff-challenge. The latest version is included in the Gran Canaira bushstrip Capers
