UKJim 502 Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 Ok so lots of addons like uk2000 are big airports and not really what I am looking for. There are those guys at Orbx that have done some nice small GA airports but you need Orbx England to get those going. Once again nice airports but don't want the rest of it. So, could anyone suggest a really good GA airport scenery addon freeware or payware I'm not fussed? I'm just looking for options at the moment to make a new home for my cherokee.

allardjd 1,853 Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 Rob - MH screen name rob16584 - has done a number of enhanced, small UK airports. Nothing like the Orbx stuff, mainly added buildings and objects, etc. but they're a step up from the stock airports. I know he's done at least these...

UKJim 502 Posted July 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 Yeah I think I have a few of them but what I'm looking for is not default fsx buildings but more of a detailed ga airport similar to the quality of orbx or uk2000. I understand that this probably does not exist but thought worth an ask Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 You might just have a troll through the file libraries at AVSIM or Flightsim.com. Sometimes the amateurs do some pretty impressive work and make it available to the rest of the community for nothing. On the other hand, some freeware is worth every penny it costs.

John Yeah I think you may be right - I've been flight simming for a few years now and I'm sure if it existed then I would have heard about it by now. Does anyone know if the Orbx England Airfields work standalone or do you have to have orbx England installed? I love some of their airfields but don't want England installed Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,487 Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 Doesn't Gary's VFR airfields fit the bill? http://www.uk2000scenery.com/vfrairfields/index.html Link to post Share on other sites
Christopher Low 63 Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 Jim, Do you have any of the ORBx FTX Europe regions installed? If so, then you will be able to use the ORBx FTX UK airfields. Contrary to the ORBx advertising, you do not specifically need FTX England to be installed to use them. You only need a single FTX Europe region, so that you have access to the relevant ORBx LIBS files. Alternatively, Gary Summons has created a very nice UK2000 Xtreme version of Cumbernauld in Scotland. You may want to check that out? I can also highly recommend the UK2000 VFR Airfields packages. Obviously the individual airfields are not up to ORBx FTX or UK2000 Xtreme standard, but you do get over 70 of them in a single package! Version 2 of VFR Airfields Volume 1 was released in October 2013, and I am happy to report that version 2 of VFR Airfields Volume 2 is scheduled to be released this Saturday. I am proud to say that I contributed plenty of time and effort to both products (particularly Volume 1, where I was personally responsible for seven of the updated airfields).

UKJim 502 Posted July 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 Might have to take a look thanks guys Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Firth 114 Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 I had all the orbx airfields integrated into GenX, the compatibility files were here at Mutleys in the downloads section... Link to post Share on other sites
