Version 2.1.1
Update Includes
Various lighting modifications
Custom Shuttle Bus now added to gates replacing stock Asobo bus.
modified IGS for a slightly lower approach for the right turn.
various texture changes
numerous small tweaks
Version 2.1
Nav Data added
The long-promised SID and STARS have now been added natively as well as correctly programing the IGS and ILS for runways 13 and 31 respectively. you no longer have to manually add the ILG/IGS frequency in the FMC.
I will try to add the SC NDB approach at a later date.
Modified lead-in lights.
removed items left missed in the last update
Charts for VHHX can be found at IVAO East Region
https://xe.ivao.aero/
Version 2.0
After many months of work version, 2.0 is here!
This was a near-complete rebuild of the entire airport (still a lot more to do)
New leadin approach light system.
90% of the buildings have been re-modelled and textured; this Includes the cargo building, maintenance hangers, fire stations and partial passenger terminal interior.
Well known Kai Tak advertising billboards included at the threshold of rwy13
New checkerboard.
Custom Apron lights.
Airfield height was raised to the correct height.
Road traffic driving across the runway and apron has been stopped.
the majority of random lights have now been removed. (a couple do remain, unknown why)
Signage and markings improved
I have not had time to add all SIDs and stars yet, (current file causes CTD so I have not included it)
If you use the ingame ATC for some reason it will always direct you to use rwy 31 for landings, I don't know why.
Don't forget to remove the previous version from the community folder.
Hong Kong Kai Tak with the famous runway 13 approach that closed in 1998, little remains today of the original Airport with much of the site being redeveloped into housing and a cruise terminal. This scenery brings back that challenging approach passing low over the Kowloon district of Hong Kong the making a 47 degree right hand turn to line up with runway 13.

Thanks for your nice work. With the latest update, elevation for waypoint Golf for ILS13 approach has been set to elevation 0 feet. Should it be set to 6000 feet?
ali501 13 hour(s) ago
Hi Thanks for your comment. I am aware of this problem, in the code it is set at 6000 or above but for some reason unknown when compiled Golf altitude is at zero. I will hopefully resolve the issue in a future update

Very nice thank you. I only have one issue to report. The ground equipment etc. is floating in the air at gate 61. Maybe you can fix with a minor tweak.
ali501 2 day(s) ago
I missed that. Thanks for letting me know
DownedAviator 2 day(s) ago
I just noticed the same thing at gate 58. Just seems to be in that vicinity. I had a quick look around and everywhere else seems ok.

Love this approach, great add-on!

Hi ali,
after the updates on 7th Jan, It crashed to desktop every time when I flew near the airport. Could you advise what might go wrong?
Thanks!
Ek6666
really nice, such a good airport!
Sixtymikegrr
Is this compatible with the Hong Kong city scenery?
Ek6666 25 day(s) ago

If you knew how much I love your airport...I prefer it even over payware ones

Working great here thank you. (SU7). I was lucky enough to fly into Kai Tak just a few months before it closed. So this really brings it back for me.
I have one issue which is probably known. Aircraft (not Sim) crash when crossing bridge to parking, after landing. As if the bridge is there but the sim thinks the aircraft has gone into water.
Thanks anyway. 😊
ali501 1 month(s) ago
I'm not sure why that's happening. If I'm understanding you correctly your aircraft is falling through the taxiway bridge as if it isn't there?
Admiral 1 month(s) ago
Yes, exactly. However, the two flights I did where this happened were night flights. So I will verify that I am 100% on this and post back. Thanks very much for the reply.
Admiral 1 month(s) ago
Ok so just checked again and very carefully taxied across the bridge with no issues. I have no idea what happened previously. Thanks again and sorry for the hassle.

Hello,
very good scenery.
I also use samscene HK, because of that, I have building on the appron.
i add the exclude from samscene website but it exclude too much, including Haeco maintenance buildings.
I did my own exclusion package, so, if someone else run into same issue, I will post the exclude.
another issue is during runway 13 approach, when arriving above kowloon, a whole area of autogen disapear and reapeare progressively in a few seconds, this is very ennoying. this happen only at first pass, if passing again the same place, it doesn't occure anymore (for exemple take of from VHHH and go direct to approch runway 13). without the scenery, it doesn't happen. this happen the same way on the payware scenery, exactly at the same place. for the moment no solution came out.
Ali501, As you look verry skilfull, maybe you have an idea of the cause.
thanks again.
Best Regards.

Tigershark85000 1 month(s) ago

kai tak
I did that but it was still not working, after erasing content.xml, after restart MSFS everything works as it should.
Ek6666 25 day(s) ago
so,have you solved it now? i am really concerned about it
Tigershark85000 22 day(s) ago
yes it works with the samscene file supply by them on their website. the alphabetical order is important.

Thanks so much for bringing us v2.0. Amazing scenery, day or night, but particularly during twilight hours.

Very nice update, but could you remove the black tall building on the left during the approach in picture 19?

Thank you

Great work, but there's cars casually driving on the runway, taxiways and apron
funkyhut
Your Kai Tak is still the very best. Thank you for all your efforts.
Unfortunately the CH VOR was recently downgraded to DME only and no longer radiates. A big ask, but would it be possible for you to add a working CH VOR to your scenery?
Thank You.

I cannot find ILS etc for runway 31

Thank you for the wonderful scenery. Very good. However, many AI cars are running. I made a MOD to remove AI cars.
