Tengah AB - Singapore

Does anyone have or know of an afcad for Tengah Airbase, ICAO-WSAT, in Singapore?

There's an aerodrome plan here.

The Singapore CAA website contains their entire AIP online with plans for all their aerodromes.

I appreciate the link.

I was actually looking for info on whether anyone else, beside myself, had gen'd up an afcad for this base. Mine is pretty basic but GoogleEarth-based. Unfortunately, the FSX landclassing of Singapore really sucks, so even a GoogleEarth-based afcad looks out of place here right now.

Well, as few responses are forthcoming here (and interpreting that to mean that I haven't overlooked anything that is already available), I'll make a comment concerning a cheap thrill I had while doing some afcad work elsewhere in the Singapore area.

I hadn't installed the Exotic Alberts - Singapore C130s pack yet and finaly got around to it this weekend. I was saddened to find that there aren't any truly decent FSX-specific afcads for Changi Intl/WSSS which has both a westside for the military sharing one of the civilian runways and an east side military-only area. The latter area is just a runway in the default and there isn't any update available. The only FSX-specific addon for the former lacks military parking completely.

So, sigh, I fired up AFX and did some work, one thing leading to another and a few hours later, I'm still at redefining the landclassing for the surrounding area. Anyway, I just turned the traffic sliders back up and what do you know? There were EP-3E's parked at WSSS where before I hadn't ever seen them there! Cheap thrill to say the least but it kinda made the day's effort worthwhile despite the fact that I hadn't even thought this would be one of the benefits.

Ya'll have a nice weekend.

Ford
As fate would have it I have been working on one for about a week now. I'll send it to you later today.

The virtual airline I fly for has a hub based at WSSS. I have been working on a RSAF package to add some mil air to the skies. I have found repaints for the C-130, F-16C/D and the Fokker F27/F50. Right now I am looking for RSAF repaints for the KC-135 and the new F-15SG (AKA F-15E)

Cheers

2 x KC-135 paints on Avsim by Graham King for the PAI model.
Any chance of a copy of that AFCAD as well?
Many thanks Cliffie2025

Scott,
If you search for 'Graham King Singapore' on avsim it will reveal itself to you.

Ohhhhh you mean those repaints... yea I found them...

Stupid search engine on avsim making me look bad...

Yeah, its not the most intuitive. IMHO.

jgibson_sniper · Post by **jgibson_sniper** » 25 Nov 2008, 23:15

I'm putting the final touch on it (adding more trees) right now.

Heads up rather than trying to steal Jake's thunder.... but his FS9 Tengah AB package has hit the avsim streets! Now available for download as rsaf_tengah_ab.zip

FS2004 Scenery — Tengah AB (WSAT), Singapore. Tengah Air Base is located on the tiny Island nation of Singapore and is home to two of its F-16 Fighting Falcons Squadrons, its E-2C Hawkeyes and a large number of UAVs. This scenery was created using RWY12 Objects. Users must have RWY12 object Libraries installed to see any objects. Included in this package are two photo-real AFCADS. The first, (WSAT) for the main base, and a second, (WSAU) for the Helicopter Base just to the west of the main runway.

Edited to add:
I plugged this into my FSX installation and I have to say that he's done a great job on it. I only wish I didn't have to disable the FS9-textured trees and manually replace them with FSX-texture trees myself!

We'll throw this over into this forum now that the package has been released.

I fancied painting the KC-135R's as I have not painted them in a long time. I have used Elvis's KE-3A model.

You can download them here.

Hi All,
are there any flightplans for the RSAF F16 about and if so where?

No thunder stolen Ford.

I hope everyone enjoys it. I was limited by the # and type of objects that can be placed by RWY12, but it is definitely better then default. As for F-16 fltpln’s, I don’t know of any. Camille Bougerol though, has just released fltplan’s for the 4 KC-135s and the 9 Fokkers. It’s on avsim file name “mil-singapore.zip”. I am hoping to get EZ Scenery for Christmas, and if i do I'll update it with MAIW objects later.

Ford Friendly · Post by **Ford Friendly** » 09 Dec 2008, 03:33

I'd recommend Instant Scenery over EZ Scenery.

IS is also a later development by the same programmer who developed EZ Scenery. IS works with both FSX and FS2004 - while EZ Scenery is FS2004-only. EZ Scenery is no longer being developed while there have been minor updates to IS.

One other thing.. you'd save $5US. LOL!

Also not based at Tengah, at laeast I do not think so, I have painted the reformed Black Knights display team.
