Somewhere in Europe...

[james84]

Any guess?





Here are some clues...
1) there are no MAIW packages for this country (so far)
2) this airport hosts aircrafts that are almost brand new
3) they have all been repainted and I made flightplans for them in the past

If nobody guesses it, you'll know it in a very very very short time, maybe even tomorrow!

Hungary?

This is not Hungarian base!

[james84]

Well, everyone have made reasonalble hypotesis (flat terrain)... but
- it is not Hungary, as it is covered by MAIW
- it is not Denmark because they have 30-years old Vipers
- it is not Greece

but Jetmax answered correctly!


This airport is Poznan-Krzesiny (EPKS) where two of the three Polish squadrons using the F-16 are based.
Looking at the plenty of photos available on the web, it looks like this airport has been completely refurbished with brand new buildings (control tower included) and shelters, leaving the old Soviet-style ones abandoned.
Please allow some artistic license: there were no suitable objects to depict the real shape of the control tower building...

... and the blast-deviating "pad" on the aprons (which is actually a burm covered by a concrete platform)

Also different is the main hangar: at the beginning I wanted to use one of the Atsugi buildings but its blue roof didn't look good in this kind of environment. If anybody has better solutions please let me know!
The scenery is almost complete though!

WOOT WOOT!! SO what did I win?

[james84]

Ehm... the prize is...ehm...

[Jon]

your package

[james84]

Ehm... the prize is...ehm...

your package

Ah, ok

[james84]

Almost done... it took just four days! I only have to finish the taxi signs, tomorrow evening you'll have the files!
I also noticed there is a preserved MiG-21. I installed the MRAI model with a Polish livery in order to use it as a static aircraft. It appears ingame, but not in its parking spot, which is generally occupied by an F-16. I assigned a parking code both to the aircraft and the parking spot (M21) but it doesn't work... any suggestion?
In the meantime... please comment and suggest!

[foufure]

For the Mig-21. Is it not possible to put his MDL in a BGL Library file, so you can use it like any other object ?

[Firebird]

Well for comments, that is bloomin' marvelous.
As for parking, move the MiG-21 spot down to the last spot in the parkinglist, to see if that makes a difference. If it is too high up, then aircraft will use it if they fit there. Try making it the last possible choice for the F16s.
