    LJAJ - Ajdovscina Airfield & Pipistrel factory scenery, Slovenia - Image 2

    Description

    Watch the Youtube release trailer to get a full video presentation of the mod.

    For my 6th project, I've recreated a real-life replica of Ajdovščina airfield. The airfield is missing from the original game and it's finally brought to life.

    Ajdovščina Airport (ICAO: LJAJ) is a local airfield and tourist airport in the Vipava Valley, Slovenia. The airport was originally built for the Battles of the Isonzo during WW1 and is today home to the Josip Križaj Ajdovščina Aeroclub and the ultralight aircraft manufacturer Pipistrel. The flying club is named after the Slovene war ace Josip Križaj (a.k.a. Giuseppe Krizai).

    This package contains detailed surroundings scenery including the Pipistrel factory, the municipal stadion home to F.C. Primorje, the Mlinotest factory silos, and a substantial revamp of the town of Ajdovščina.

    Thanks to everyone who contributed gathering material and giving suggestions. The main data for textures were obtained by myself, online references were used too. The build was tested and reviewed for VR with good fps results (i7 8700, rtx3080, 32Gb, Reverb G2).

    Did you try to find out why Nova Gorica area has like out of season satellite imagery, it kinda stands out and doesn't look good, and you are making quality mods FPS friendly.

    Also here many thanks from Germany for designing this special and perfect designed Airport to fly :-)

    Another 5 star release from neptune11 which turns a rather mundane grass strip in the default scenery into a charming airfield. It also adds surrounding structures and the Pipistrel factory. The result is that Ajdovscina becomes not a place to fly over in MSFS, but rather a place to stop and spend a few relaxing hours. And then come back again and again.

    Runway UNDEFINED... LJAJ- shows a water runway, .... need fix

    over 3 years ago

    This seems to be caused by some sort of conflict with Navigraph's AIRAC Cycle base packages. Removing them also removed the issue.

    Runway UNDEFINED... LJAJ- shows a water runway, .... need fix

    I can confirm this issue - trying to take off from any runway or parking place results in a warning that a water runway cannot be used with a land-based aircraft.


    EDIT: upon further testing this seems to be caused by some sort of conflict with Navigraph's AIRAC Cycle base packages. Removing them also removed the issue.
