Description
v1.3 - Fixed overlaid default buildings. Works now in 2020 and 2024.
Hartford Brainard Airport - Located just south of downtown Hartford, CT alongside the Connecticut River. This package corrects taxiways and taxiway signs and includes 2 Helipads present at the real airport. Buildings are all hand-crafted in Blender with PBR textures and are modelled after their real-world counterparts. Custom labels on taxiways and by helipad. Control tower now appears correct for this airport and has a rotating airport beacon on the roof as in real life.
Simply copy the h2air-airport-khfd-brainard folder into your community folder and you are good to go!
Hope you enjoy!

Special Thanks to the BVARTCC (www.bvartcc.com) community for being patient as I peppered with questions and screenshots of WIP. Models are original. Textures came from a variety of sources including custom made, the free Pixar 128 library, and Poliigon.

Delightful airport. Suggest you include the airport code in the title for ease of searching.

Looks great but can you please rename the modelLib.BGL to something unique, having the default name causes lots of CTD's this is a known issue among scnery makers. Make sure you also change the name change in the layout.json file or models wont show up.

Thank you for the good catch! This is the first project I put together and forgot that the tutorial I was following set it up that way. I am modifying and will have a new version up soon.

I just downloaded a clean copy from here and installed it and it works fine - did you happen to copy it in without unzipping it first? You want the enclosed "h2air-airport-khfd-brainard" folder in your community folder, not the .zip file itself. This will be true for pretty much any mod you download from here or elsewhere.

Thank you! There are a lot of regional airports around the world that a lot of simmer wish were upgraded as much as you just upgraded this one.

TY. I would love to know how to fix the Mouth of the CT River and the Jamestown-Newport bridges.

Ahhh. The Jamestown and Newport Bridges are a good one for sure. I was flying VFR and was expecting to use them as a visual cue.
