File Description:
Gandeer is on the east coast of Canada and is the closest North American airport to Europe on the great circle route. In the early days of transatlantic flight, and in fact into the 1960's, this made it very important as a refueling stop either before the ocean hop or just after. Since then it's importance as an airport has faded somewhat as planes now fly directly to the larger city destinations. It is still an active air force base for ocean patrol and search and rescue planes, and military flights are around half of the total flights into and out of the airport. The main attractions of the airport now are the long runways and the cheaper landing fees, and there are some cargo flights and cheap charter passenger flights. This version of Gander is based upon a forgotten-about video taken in October 2010. By then the two longer runways, 13-31 at 8,900 feet and 03-21 at 10,200 feet (though in FS9 this is still designated 04-22, as it had been in 2003) had been closed (one at a time) and totally resurfaced. The third runway 09-27 (3,500 feet in 2003) was closed and starting the process of being broken up, along with associated aprons. This was part of a long process of demolition of some of the older buildings, aprons, and taxiways as they became unused with the fall in the number of daily flights. I have made it clear which of the 2010 taxiways and aprons were still in use by showing them as asphalt, while those in the process of decaying disuse or removal are in the darker tarmac texture; this is somewhat realistic as when asphalt aprons are "ploughed" for removal the darker underside becomes visible. In the renovation process of taxiway repairs only the centre strip of the taxiways was repaired and this is marked by new and closer edge lines. One end of the closed runway was still being used in 2010 for access and parking. There is a warning note in the April 2010 edition of the NAV CANADA Flight Supplement that states "surface rut on Gander Flight Training's private taxiway" (written with extremely shortened words). The Gander layout page is included here, showing that in the Spring of 2010 a much-shortened version (1,875 feet) of the 09-27 runway was still in use; my version is for late 2010 and after that runway was closed. The older buildings (and some of them are now 70 years old or more) are built in concrete and flat roofed with bitumen water proofing; hence the almost black roofs. The terminal building is one of these, though it has been enlarged by the inclusion of a hangar that is now used as the main terminal space. Almost all of the buildings are correctly replicated here. The main GA parking area is to the east of 03-21 where there are two large hangar buildings. One of them is for maintenance and the other is for a large FBO called Gander Aviation. There are other FBO's on the airport, closer to the terminal. These are Irving and Woodward, both to the west, and Allied to the south. There is a further FBO at the eastern end of the apron, name unknown. Shell, who only did refueling, were next to Woodward in 2010 but left, I believe, in 2012. The large red building behind Woodward and Shell is for the maintenance of all airport equipment (from luggage trolleys, snow clearers, de-icing trucks etc to air conditioning, radar, and radios). Most of the remaining buildings are for the air force base, though there are some private companies (such as Universal Helicopters) and even a small private cottage.

| Bumba Airport (FZFU/BMB) |
|
File Description:
Scenery for Bumba airport (FZFU/BMB), namely a small airport located in the North part of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Mondala Province, serving the small town of Bumba located near the Congo river. Bumba is an ideal reference point for VFR flights along the Congo river in that region, as well as around that part of the DRC forest. The scenery contains two parts: the landclass, that defines the terrain at and around the airport, and the airport scenery, which contains the runway, the aprons, and the 3D objects. In comparison with the default FS2004 scenery, this contains brand new runway and aprons, drawn using custom textures that should give a more realistic feeling of the airstrip, and the landclass has been modified in order to represent faithfully the real landscape around the airport. The Static Object Library of RWY12 is necessary in order to properly display the 3D objects: it can be found easily in the AVSIM library.

| N'djili (FZAA) and N'dolo (FZAB) airports, Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo |

File Description:
This is a scenery for the two civil airports of Kinshasa City in the Democratic Republic of Congo, namely N'djili (FZAA) and N'dolo (FZAB). The scenery improves substantially the default ones. In particular, for N'djili the new terminal area as well as the new tower have been drawn from scratch using Gmax. The ground of the two airports has been carefully drawn using custom concrete, asphalt and taxiway textures. Parking spots have been added to both airports, in particular for N'djili Apron 2 I have reproduced the real life scheme as it can be grasped from satellite images.
In order to visualize some of the 3D objects, it is necessary to install the Static Object Library objects available here on AVSIM.
