DominicS Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 KFYJ Middle Peninsula Regional Airport An Interactive & Animated HD Photo-Realistic Airport By Marc Leydecker This is picturesque KFYJ (a.k.a.West Point). It has taken me over 1400 hours to build this photo-realistic HD airport. KFYJ is located between Washington DC and Norfolk Virginia. Alfa Farms=16 miles KRIC=30 miles KPHF=31 miles Langley AFB=37 miles KORF=53 miles KIAD=92 miles KDCA=105 miles All objects, including vehicles, static aircraft, buildings, vegetation, animations, etc. were made in SketchUp and are based on pictures I've taken. Highlights: Interactive animated “static†GA's (position yourself in front of the Orange C170 and open your doors/canopy or move your controls). Interactive animated school bus (put your handbrake on and the bus will “unload†students). Animated skydivers based on real data and parameters. Animated work zone (working bulldozers, dump trucks, rollers, bobcats, etc). Animated equipment: generators, forklifts. Animated airport vehicles. Animated people. Animated Goodyear “blimpâ€. Animated medivac Helicopter. Animated river barges. Animated tugboats. Animated paper mill factory. HD Photo-realilsm (every building was accurately crafted using photo-textures). HD Photorealistic cars, buses and trucks are in perfect scale with the photo-textures. HD Photo-realistic airport equipment based on pictures. HD Custom made building lighting. HD Custom made lamp posts, telephone/power poles. Custom grass, weeds, trees, flowerbeds, bushes and forests. Custom pavement textures based on photographs. Super detailed nearby horse farm (Alfa Farms). Please EXPLORE this scenery as there is a scene and surprise around every corner. Important notes: Special thanks to the KFYJ staff for letting me take thousands of pictures. Special thanks to "Alcala"for letting me modify his gorgeous C170! The few objects which I have borrowed are used with the developers permission (file names are marked as such). My moving flags are based on the great work of Mr3D. Manwalking and Manwalking2 are 2 free samples of LP3D. LP3D_Audi is a free sample of LP3D. Belga_AXYZ_ManStepLadder is a heavily modified free sample of AXYZ. Mandun's MIL was used as a base to create my own version. The orthophotos are modified and tweaked downloads from USGC (the USGC orthos were taken in the winter and were overlaid with real photos taken by myself). Instructions Unzip and place the created scenery folder into your X-Plane/Custom Scenery folder. This airport requires the latest version of OpenSceneryX. Make sure you have “runway follows terrain contours†disabled (needs X-Plane restart!). MAC users might have to tweak gamma setting (in rendering options) if the scenery looks washed-out. Documentation: Charts and airport info is located in the documentation folder. Most importantly...please enjoy this scenery (comments are welcomed).

Hensen2 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Thanks Marc for such a great work. My grandson and I will enjoy getting to know this area and discover the surprises. He should be able to solo soon. I got my PL in Norfolk many years ago. (C150 wet for $10/hr). Thanks to all of you who share your talents to keep us "flying".
