Send them, I'll check what's already there and will create stuff for whomever wants to import

to all,

yet required:

handplaced palm and pine trees (quality and real local vegetation style only, no fantasy stuff),

golf courses,

residential areas on approach pattern (opposite side of laguna),

main gate (base entrance from highway to Honolulu),

Boats in the Laguna and landing stages around the peninsula,

Roads (at least main road from Honolulu),

Cars, lots of Cars on Parking lots,

Tarmac and Taxiways,

Bushes and Grass seaming the terrain,

ground personnel.

.

anyone?

and:

anyone finally adding a terrain mesh (1 meter at least)?

The USGS has 1 foot imagery of this area but I don't have the time nor patience to build that many tfw files. They don't have any 1m stuff for here. duh. Dave said in another thread that it is possible to use the GIMP clone feature to cover up most of the clouds with favorable results.

no worries Ray, leave the USGS source for all users, someone will pick the job.

so you can focus on the airport models.

Dave W.

the opposite is the case, Dave.

Clear tagging rules prevent chaos, so i had to jump in and save Jeff's life.

If all user scenery uploads need to go via Jeff's Desk, no wonder he is busy.

It seems aerofly is not ready for user content flow.

My request for was directed to the users by the way, so they are aware of proper content naming.

agree to Ed's thread #67 .

name it e.g.

Hawaii - Hawaiian Islands, all Airports identifiers for Aerofly's GUI Nav Planner. V 1.0 by Rodeo. Does not include Airports Models or Scenery Objects. Requires -

Oahu, HI. - Island DEM and 1m pixel Sat Terrain map (Geoconverted). Does not include Airports Models or Scenery Objects.

PHNG - Airport identifier for Aerofly's GUI Nav Planner. V 1.0 by Ed. Requires -

PHNG - Airport 3D Model. Includes Area Sat Image, Runway, Buildings, Static Aircraft. V 1.0 by Dave. Requires -, WIP

Very nice work Ray

Jeff, would you give the download page a better way of explaining how the meanwhile 3 oahu downloads go together?

Name them in proper hirachy or users will have a mess.

Quote from Overloaded

It doesn't sound as if you would have enjoyed your first solo flight?

felt all alone

what the hell, yeah, fill that tub !

will you mark updates ?

e.g. NAS Kenohe on Oahu - update 2

and:

how do Ed's and Dave's downloads go together now?

Seems that link is missing in Post #36.

Cheers, Ed

just showing a P3 on final from surface level of the laguna site. it does display on my screen, but you won't miss a lot Ed.

Dave, the carrier seems a bit displaced aside the helicopter base. The laguna is not deep enough, a carrier would strand half a mile before entering it.

It should park somewhere offshore at the extension of Rwy04, half a mile at least.

the small tower could not handle the aftermath ops of 9/11 where Kane ohe played a substantial role in Pacific Logistics, so they built the new one, much taller, much better equipped, and a better view over the entire pensinsula's ground ops. So, no mil secrets and no dual thing like in Hickam, just historical replacement for new requirements. Before 9/11 Kane Ohe was planned to shut down.

to use the smaller one to control heli ops would make sense, but it could also split for levels of authority (Terminal/CTR/App ctrl).

Main rwy for both landing and departing is 04 by the way.

Jim, it will load with steam.

it will somewhere in this decade. that's how i got it from sources.

where can i send a Oahu.DEM?

that would be the digital elevation model of the island.

Ray, is there an aerofly library for static aircraft?

if yes, P3's, CH-53's, Seahawks, etc. are welcome.

Can't wait for the download.

Quote from edpatino

interesting to see if it'll fit Ok with my already geoconverted area of Kaneohe Bay.

Thanks and cheers, Ed

Screenies please Ed.

When i checked the dowload page, the merge of you 2 was obvious.

revise source of sat imagery?

what about the height mesh?

Ray, if i understand you right, your work is not downloadable yet, is it?

@AlRayes_BRN, you want to decide on whether you fly VFR, IFR or military when in Switzerland,

Terrain and Weather would be a good base for you to decide, how to get to your destination,

and by that you design a flight plan. Hopefully around a mountain, not into it.

Obviously aerofly's flight planner does not cover the real conditions like terrain height.

A flight plan still is a plan only, it is created in your mind,

and it includes departure point, destination and how to get there. IFR is completely different to VFR.

the how to get there is the most cruitial thing, as it defines the waypoints considering the obstacles like mountains, weather, and coliding objects.

you may also consider the must follow rules of swiss airspace management, that guides you via precise navigation points (radio or visuals)

in order to stay off conflicts or accidents.

use your eyes, maps and instruments to get to your destination. And do your flight in mind before in real or in the sim.
