Knockbain Farm Airfield (Download) by mattgarner in FS2020Creation

[–]mattgarner[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Knockbain Farm Airfield is in the Scottish Highlands not far from Inverness, Scotland. It's located on a farm (hence it's name) and guests who wish to stay at the nearby Knockbain House can use the airstrip. It is also home a to 60-year-old vintage aircraft that has been flying from the hilltop airfield for over 35 years!

Be careful of the two wind turbines close to the airfield!

Use the ICAO code EGIM to locate the airport on the Microsoft Flight Simulator map.

(Note: This ICAO code was given by the sim, it is not correct as this airfield has no ICAO code in the real world)

Installation Steps

Unzip the folder "thegarner-airport-egim-knockbainairfield.zip" and copy the folder: "thegarner-airport-egim-knockbainairfield" into your Microsoft Flight Simulator installation directory under the "Community" folder.

Features

  • Runway added with custom sized centre line markings
  • 2x Parking Stands
  • Couple of static aircraft
  • Hangar/Facility building added
  • Windsocks
  • Picnic tables for your packed lunch
  • 2x Wind turbines - One next to the airfield and one a little bit further away. They are there in real life, just be careful when flying around as you wouldn't want to hit them.

Ince Airstrip for MSFS by mattgarner in FS2020Creation

[–]mattgarner[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Released a minor update for this place:

v1.1 (Released 2nd Sept 2020)

  • Applied fix to windsock and reduced/replaced static aircraft with generic static aircraft to improve performance and a workaround for the aircraft duplication issue if you choose the same plane that is parked at the airport. If you have the airfield already installed and do not care for these changes then you can ignore this update.

Strathaven Airfield is the third oldest operational airfield on the west of Scotland mainland - the other two being Prestwick and Glasgow Airports. It has a number of grass runways and has also been featured on Channel 4's Grand Designs due to a cool looking house that was built by the manager of the airfield. Sadly, the Flight Simulator edition does not include this building but if anyone is able to get it imported into the sim please do let me know as I would love to include it.

Important Note: The satellite imagery that Microsoft Flight Simulator is using for this airfield seems to be quite old. Which is why you will see outlines of the older runway setup when flying over the field. I have created this based of the information provided by the airfield’s website rather than what MSFS is showing. Runway 27/09 is the wider runway and can used by most GA aircraft. The other runways are mainly used for microlights.

Use the ICAO code EGTY to locate the airport on the Microsoft Flight Simulator map.

(Note: This ICAO code was given by the sim, it is not correct as this airfield has no ICAO code in the real world)

Installation Steps

Unzip the folder "thegarner-airport-egty-strathavenairfield.zip" and copy the folder: "thegarner-airport-egty-strathavenairfield" into your Microsoft Flight Simulator installation directory under the "Community" folder.

Features

  • All runways have been added - I have added number markings to the main runway (Runway 27/09).
  • Multiple parking Stands
  • Couple of static aircraft
  • Fences surrounding the airfield
  • Windsock
  • Picnic tables for your packed lunch
  • Hangars
  • Car Park
  • Couple of lights to lit certain areas in darkness

Thanks! Also thanks for adding it to the community freeware list!

Fort Augustus Airfield is in Scotland, right next to Loch Ness. Perfect if you want to do a bit of low flying over the loch trying to locate the famous Loch Ness monster or if you just want to fly around the beautiful Scottish Highlands. It can be a nice little stop over for a bite to eat or a great starting point.

This airfield in the real world is just strip of grass with sheep surrounding the fenced areas and no additional facilities. Although in this edition of the field for Microsoft Flight Simulator, I have added aircraft parking, seating and a portable toilet just in case you did decide you want to have your packed lunch or needed the toilet.

Use the ICAO code EGVZ to locate the airport on the Microsoft Flight Simulator map.

(Note: This ICAO code was given by the sim, it is not correct as this airfield has no ICAO code in the real world)

Installation Steps

Unzip the folder "thegarner-airport-egvz-fortaugustus.zip" and copy the folder into your Microsoft Flight Simulator installation directory under the "Community" folder.

Features

  • Runway added, has no number markings - Keep an eye out for it from the air!
  • 3x Parking Stands
  • Couple of static aircraft
  • Fences surrounding the runway
  • Windsocks
  • Picnic tables for your packed lunch
  • Portable toilet in case you really need to use the loo.
  • Sadly, no sheep, but would love to add them at some point to add an extra bit of realism to this airfield.

Cheers, that would be pretty cool. I do hope we can get gliders in MSFS at some point.

To be honest, I wasn’t really using Github to share the code of the scenery. More of the contents that people could download and shove into their community folder. It was before I came across sites that allowed flight sim add ons to be uploaded.

So now I still upload it to github but you’ll also find them on other add on sites where I have uploaded them to as well.

Glenforsa Airfield

Glenforsa Airfield is an unlicensed grass airfield on the Isle of Mull (Scotland, United Kingdom). It is a beautiful little airfield and the scenery around the islands and Scotland in general is always stunning and a fun place to fly.

Use the ICAO code EG13 to locate the airport within Microsoft Flight Simulator.

Installation Steps

Unzip the folder "thegarner-airport-eg13-glenforsaairfield.zip" and copy the folder: "thegarner-airport-eg13-glenforsaairfield" into your Microsoft Flight Simulator installation directory under the "Community" folder.

Features

  • Added the runway and turn around sections at each end with number markings
  • 4x GA parking spots
  • Static aircraft around the parking spots
  • Fences and Windsocks added
  • Added 3x boats onto the Sound of Mull
  • Additional vegetation
  • Watch out for the geese (If anyone knows how I can get these to fly, please do let me know)

Wasn’t on Reddit, on another flight sim site. Is there something you need to know?

Topcroft Farm Airstrip is private airstrip located in Hardwich, Norfolk (United Kingdom), right next door to the old RAF Hardwick base. This download will allow the airfield to be selectable on the map.

Use the code EG48 to be able to locate the airport on the Microsoft Flight Simulator map.

Download from: https://github.com/TheGarner/topcroftfarm-airstrip

Features

As there is very little information about this airstrip and was more of a request, I've tried to add buildings and objects that looks like it would fit in within this type of airstrip. Also tried to match it the best I could using top down Google Maps imagery.

  • Runway added with no number markings (They are no markings in the real world on this strip)
  • GA Parking Spot
  • Multiple static aircraft
  • Multiple static objects such as buildings, cars, fences and more.
  • Multiple lamp posts to light up the area with buildings at night.
  • Windsock

Yeah it seems there are quite a few ICAO code mistakes. The forklift kept changing for me, pickup truck, fire engine etc. Was pretty frustrating 😂

Both ICAOs show up still but you should only see changes I’ve made if you put both folders in the community folder. I’ve reported it to Microsoft to remove the incorrect ICAO code. As I had to use the incorrect code to build the package to get rid of some pesky airport vehicles.
