Milford Sound Airport (IATA: MFN, ICAO: NZMF) is a small but very busy (in terms of flight movements) airport in Milford Sound, in New Zealand's Fiordland region of the South Island. It is mainly used by tourist / flightseeing operators.
The Airport is located in the village Milford Sound located at the head of the fiord Milford Sound. It serves the Milford Sound tourism industry including boats, kayaks, Milford Track, as well as the fishing boats based at Milford Sound. It stands at the head of the fiord at the junction of the Cleddau and Arthur rivers.

Question. I have the ME DEM and everything seems load ok with 2 exceptions. The biggest thing is a steep drop in elevation on the taxi way making it unusable. The 2nd is the fact that several airplanes are parked very close to the runway. Not referring to the helicopters FYI. Any suggestions ?
Jimbo787
Awesome airport mod. The airport and close surrounds are great. The only issue I have is the further towards the exit of the Sound, the cliff faces are sitting proud of the Orbx mesh. There is a large gap between them and the underlying mesh. Otherwise its a perfect product. I downloaded both the Orbx mesh and V2.3 of this airport on the same day, so have the most up to date of both.

Hi Jimbo787,
Sergio, the creator of this great scenery already told me that his current Milford Sound Airport v2.3 Orbx is only tested with the first(!) Orbx NZ mesh ves. no. 1.0.0
The current version of the Orbx NZ mesh has the build no. 1.0.1 and is therefore not realy compatible with Milford Sound Airport v2.3 Orbx.
Unfortunarely Orbx does not offer any downgrade via Orbx Central.
Anyway, in my opinion the Milford Sound Scenery still looks great, especially if you set the time that the sun shines deep in the fjord ....:thumb:
regards
Oliver

This is a great rendition of Milford sound, just as I remember it. One of my favorite places to fly and in default MSFS it was so bad. I am very happy now.
A big thank you to the talented creators.
Galdeano
The addon is perfect. I was there and it is like that.
I have a problem that is not depending by the mod. It is permanently snowing at Milford Sound.
Anyone with same problem?
carrotsusu 22 day(s) ago
yes me too. are you experiencing like hell of scenery? the entire scenery esp airport is curved.
LazyLime
Wow, this scenery is amazing. Your work is thorough, works cleanly, and the outcome is jaw dropping. I have never been to this beautiful place in real life, but this depiction brings it to life in a way I didn't know was possible in the sim. Thank you!
smoothflyer
Fantastic scenery, one of the few scenery's, that actually appeared, and did not shut down the sim, excellent work, keep it up.
Terblanche
Do you foresee any problems if one uses the ...
seafront-livingworld-vessels-ai
and
seafront-livingworld-vessels-globalshipping
instead of the ship-mod you suggested ...?
laginnwt 25 day(s) ago
I am curious about this too, since i own these. Reluctant to install the global AI ship Traffic. Am a big fan of the vessels effort for sure. Do they conflict or support eachother.

Many thanks for your default mesh update Sergio. While it may be true that buying the ORBX mesh and using that version will yield better results, I'm quite happy with the result achieved for the standard mesh. It represents a noticeable improvement over the prior version and love the new docks and terraforming. Also appreciate your thoughtfulness in providing a couple of water/dock parking spots for seaplane operations. Your extra effort to include us 'default-meshers' in this most recent excellent update is recognized and welcomed.
eraser2727
Thank you for updating the standard mesh version as well!

Blinn 26 day(s) ago

CH4Pz
Im a little confused! desription says for orbx use 2.3 no dem, but then theres 2 versions of 2.3 no dem (one is in the title then the other says it in descrip.)? is it possible to name one orbx and one default to tell them apart better or are they the same file?
Blinn 26 day(s) ago
IF YOU USE ORBX New Zeland DEM file USE V.2.3
IF YOU USE DEFAULT DEM WITH HEIGHT LAYER MAKE BY ME USE 2.3 NO DEM
check it now
CH4Pz 26 day(s) ago
Excellent, thank you, says Orbx now 😀
FlyMe2Dunoon
I can see the cruise centre building again - yay! I love this airport, a great piece of work.
I still can't find the seaplane though.
Jimsimmer79
Had to get the Orbx mesh aslo as the airport was in a weird valley so had a terrain issue. Love all the work gone into the surrounding water etc. bought me back 10 years to when I was last there. Thanks Serg. Great job
warthart
Anyone else experiencing issues while loading the airport?
I have ORBX Mesh and the latest version of the airport (main file) but when I try to load the airport, the screen stucks at half of the loading indicator.
Dart15
Hi... Are you intending to update for those , like me, using the Mike AT DEM in the same way that you have updated the scenary for those using the ORBX DEM please?
KennyPDY
Hi,
The version in readme.txt and also in manifest.json of the main file still 1.9. Am I download the correct file. If I have ORBX DEM, do I need the one with OBIX_DEM?
KennyPDY 1 month(s) ago
OK. Found out that if I have Orbx DEM, I need the one with orbx_dem. Main file was obsolete.
FlyMe2Dunoon 1 month(s) ago
Thanks for that. I also have the Orbx DEM and parts of the scenery are either not showing or are underwater. I've now downloaded the Orbx2.3 file and will try that.
nilsenja
Just checking that I have the right files...
Since I have the mesh from Orbx do I down load two files... the one labeled Main file and the one that says SDR Milford 2.3 Orbx Dem?
Blinn 2 month(s) ago
Orbx 2.3
File system on flightsim its horrible
nilsenja 2 month(s) ago
Yes, but have I listed the right files above?
Eldrarak82
Is version1.8 still valid for Default (Asobo) DEM users, even after SU5?
JohnG 2 month(s) ago
I support this request. Not all of us are using the Dem.
Blinn
Well....
SU5 is... mmm
....double mmm...
i dont know.
what i know is that using the sdk and editor is hell.
This is what I see when I open the Milford scenario.
Sometimes it loads the templates sometimes not ...
I have been here for 8 hours in front of the monitor trying to understand how this system thinks now .. it has changed and for the worse.

I'm experiencing weird things with my sceneries as well. CTD when landing, even after rebuilding the runway, removing all parking, all custom objects... Frustrating.

Hi SDR, i am getting some pink chequered elements (textures missing?). for example: The bottom side of the blue helicopters, the front side of the covered fuel tank and the door frame of the small building next to it.
if u want, i can send you screenshots.

paul
