Let's be honest, the procedurally generated EGAA for MSFS is pretty lousy...so this cleans it up a lot!
I am not an expert in 3D modelling, so don't expect a fully blown add-on here with lots of eye candy. However, as far as functionality is concerned this is a complete re-work. No more grass taxiways!
I am hoping that one day there will be a fully developed EGAA, but I hope this improves things for now.
The main features of this modified airport include:
1. This is a starred airport with working ILS that will be auto-tuned by onboard computer when selecting ILS25 or ILS17 approaches.
2. The vegetation that blocked some of the approach lighting has been removed.
3. Parking is more in line with the real airfield parking stands- both for the main apron and the small GA aprons. Main apron has some markings added.
4. Gate 22 now has functioning jetway.
5. Taxiway signs added.
6. Added a stock SDK control tower.
7. Apron lighting added.
8. Correct taxiway network with lighting.

I guess thats nothing a third-party could make, since its some core-sim functionality.

Hi guys,
-
I think its time for a section "working on". It would be so good to see if anyone is actually working on something particular, to avoid multiple people doing the same thing. There is this request section on flightsim.to which is awesome, however, I suggest a supplementary section, where people can actually upload their WIP.

Do you plan to improve this airport with handcrafting like you did with Belfast city airport?

I only hope that MS give it as much love as you have I flown 80 hrs here under ppl.
Ps Woodgate Air owned a red van that would ferry the private pilots to and from the main thermal for their food. Just those we details help thats who did the ppl at aldergrove as well as Belfast Flying CLub

Nice one. Just to inform you: I had a plane sitting on my parking position (assigned by ATC).
it was after landing at EGAA,
a position assigned by MSFS ATC (blue frame around the position),
it was for sure AI traffic (rarely fly multiplayer),
it was live traffic.
I don't know the specific parking position anymore. I think it was #9 (according to offical EGAA chart).

awesome work!!! only problem is the a320 at the airport glitches into the ground and glitches out again.

Nice work buddy, vast improvement of my home airport (I live 4 miles away in Antrim)

Nice work Tamalien. Had a nice flight from EGAC with a scenic tour of the city to Aldergrove and back. Really enjoyed. John is making a patch so your EGAC does not clash with his city scenery.
