146th X-Plane.org fly-in (Switzerland)

-return to picture archive-

 

This weekend marked Fanki's last regular visit to the fly-ins for the time being, so we decided to go with this suggestion and picked Männlichen Airfield in Switzerland for this Sunday. There was a newly released scenery package available for the airfield, which was actually required to see the airfield at all as it wasn't present in the default airport data. As usual, Fanki improved the airport layout a bit, adding a proper runway where the scenery package originally only had empty terrain surrounded by scenery objects to mark the runway's edges. Since the fly-in location was pretty close to my time zone, all the fly-in shots are taken with real time settings.

PS. Unfortunately the scenery package seems to be no longer available for download. Apparently there were some copyright issues with the conversion from MSFS. However, by downloading Fanki's airport data you should be able to see the airfield minus the custom scenery objects.
