FS2020 Section

Note  your sim must be up to date with all world updates installed. You do not need any photogrammetry installed,  just the base world updates as I borrow scenery from those resources. I also recommend to install the UK2000 Scenery Library which is free in the Marketplace and used by many devs, including my work.

Mount Keith Airport is owned and operated by BHP, one of Australia's largest mining corporations. The entire town owes it's existence to the company. Since the town is literally across the road from the airport I have done the town as well. I've added the main streets, the fuel depot, shopping centres, carparks and the service station. There is also a recreation centre in the middle of town that I added, so enjoy!

 

V 3.0 (16 Aug 24) NOTE THE DEPENDENCIES HAVE CHANGED

This is the latest airport in my collection of FIFO WA scenery that I am giving new life to before MSFS2024 comes out. When it hits the store all of my 2020 work will be of near payware quality and  I can concentrate on the new SDK while you still have great scenery for the old version.

• Payware quality as is expected by my followers.
• Full overhaul from the ground up, pretty much a complete rebuild.
• New buildings and objects.
• Accurate apron and markings.
• Your own GA hangar to spawn into.
• Redid all of the ground textures with custom multi-layered ground work.
• Rebult all of the fencing and gates.
• Completely redid the runway, placing the VASI lights in the correct position.
• Cleaned up most of the MSFS artifacts.
• Added a cold and dark chopper start under the helipad (Parking 100).
• Improved the lighting.
• Checked FPS, all good.

 

V 3.1 (24 Aug 24) - FINAL UPDATE.

• Added aircraft parking designation markings to the main apron.
• Added some animated people that I had forgotten.
• Moved the helipad away from the fence, it was a bit tight for chopper pilots to safely operate their craft.
• This completes this airport.

Tip:

Don't forget to reload your Little Navmap scenery library now and then in order to keep your new airfields accurately portrayed within it. This way all your new taxiway designations are updated among other things.

LNM automatically searches through your community folder during the process which runs in the background so you can keep simming.

From the menu bar of LNM:  Scenery Library | Load Scenery Library | press Load. When finished, press Use Database.

Instructions:

Unzip and drop into your Community folder.
