Launceston Airport (IATA: LST, ICAO: YMLT) is a regional airport on the outskirts of Launceston, Tasmania. The airport is located in the rural area of Western Junction 15 km (9.3 mi) from Launceston city centre. It is Tasmania's second busiest airport in the state, after Hobart Airport; it can also run as a curfew free airport. Runways 14L/32R and 18/36 (all Grass) were closed some years ago when the entire airport went through a major upgrade. Enjoy!
ILS/DME 109.5 on RWY 32L

<--- MODIFICATIONS --->
*** make sure you DELETE the old package folder airport-YMLT-launceston from your community folder
Do Not simply replace files
V1.3 - Modified to fix ILS that has been off to the left and landing you at the check-in counter... since WU8
- WARNING!! If you use NAVIGRAPH you may not want to use this modified version
- This is the only change in this version update - the old V1.2 is still available
- Nice little screenshot of ILS bung on-line
- Am working on the terminal.... at the moment it's a bit like a giant toilet block :)
V1.2 - Re-built using SU10 Beta
- Fixed various buildings poking through since WU8 (Australia)
- Fixed some surface textures
- Fixed the Hold-Short lights
- Removed extra taxiway lights
- WIP doing the terminal as time allows
V1.1 - Fixed the parking spots which may have caused some AI aircraft not to spawn or be the wrong size
V1.0 - Initial release
this is an excellent freeware airport, great job.
is it possible in the next version to update the parking so that the airliners are at the terminal gates and not parked down in the GA bays to the south?

Great to see this one. I did have trouble with high trees on final for 32L. They do appear to have gone now. Will d/l tomorrow hopefully and have a look.
Second, Can you look at the ILS for RWY32 as it seems quite offset from runway extension....Or is this just an anomaly with the CRJ perhaps?

ILS appears OK for me touching down on track. I checked with a couple of default aircraft. Will try my CRJ too

Thanks for that! WU7 that updates Australia is great but unfortunately has slammed most of my airports (including YMLT) with extra buildings and trees. I’m going to have to check each one and correct. That’s going to take some time

Hi and thanks. I’m trying to finish YMML which I’ve been doing for about 12 months.
I’ve had a look at it previously and will do again to see what I can do. I also have St Helen’s 3/4 done

Thanks. I did YDPO and lots of other Tassie ones. Just view scenery by Australia (or search for the ICAOs). There’s Wynyard and Smithton, Hobart, King Island and Strahan to name a few. Enjoy!

Glad to see an airport that I have been to many times in real life 😉 I can still see it's not perfect and missing things but then you can only do so much.

Thanks. The changes in the underlying software updates introduced new ‘challenges’ each time. It’s taken some time to get to here. I know it’s not perfect but I wanted to get something out. Will come back to it. I also don’t have many pictures. I m after a decent one of the terminal from front and back

THANKYOU, THANKYOU, THANKYOU!!!!!
Have been waiting for this since the launch. My favourite airport (despite being a Dane) of all in the sim. There is so much to see in Tasmania and Launceston is right there in the middle, and you have done a beautiful job. Think you even felled some trees at the end of rwy 32.
Going to spend much time here. Thanks!
