    Description

    Akaroa Airstrip, New-Zealand, for MSFS
    Real-life airstrip, fictitious ICAO code NZ69
    Version 1.1

    --Description--

    There are hundreds of small airstrips in NZ dedicated to agricultural aerial work (crop-dusting / Top-dressing).
    Just above Akaroa, the French town of NZ, the "Akaroa Airstrip" is one of them (the name is from my own imagination).
    It's located in the Banks Peninsula, south-east of Christchurch, in South Island, and provides a great view on beautiful Akaroa harbour.
    The approach is fun since you have to follow the hill slopes and turn left to line up with the grass strip. On top, be careful of the top dressing bins!

    --The scene--

    It's a new airfield in MSFS and for this I used custom assets, default assets and some assets from various libraries. Please make sure you have them installed in your "Community" folder.
    It features:
    - custom Fletcher FU24 aircraft (quite an old one actually!)
    - custom bins
    - kilometers of fences
    - sheeps

    It's a great addition to my other existing scene in the area:
    - Summit Road Airstrip (NZ67) (https://flightsim.to/file/21397/summit-road-airstrip-nz67)


    --What's new--

    v1.1
    Made compatible with World Update 12 "New Zealand" from February 2023.

    --Installation--

    Please remove any previous version of this scenery you may have.

    Just unzip and drop the "sbworks-airport-nz69-akaroaairstrip" folder into your "Community" folder of MSFS.

    It is strongly recommended to install those libraries:
    - SBWorks Asset Library v1.1 or above (https://flightsim.to/file/21396/sbworks-asset-library)
    - Windy things (https://flightsim.to/file/14024/windy-things)
    - Mikea.at assetpack v0.3.1 or above (https://flightsim.to/file/1923/mikea-at-assetpack)
