Thanks for that but I'm already using LINZ aerial for big photoreal coverage.

I've been waiting for Napier stuff for a while too. Unfortunately, the LINZ stuff is ancient so I've been hoping someone would approach NCC or Regional Council to see if they would cough up some recent stuff (like, that has the Prebensen Drive extension in it at least) for cheap or free. The big prob with the old stuff is that it is missing a key feature just short of the south approach (34) of the runway - a major road extension called "Prebensen Drive". It's been there for a few year's now. However, anything 2004 or older doesn't even have the beginnings of the major roadworks that took place - works that radically altered the area which one has to fly over to land. Further, there is now a large housing development in that area called "Lagoon Farm" something-or-other, which has grown in leaps and bounds over the last 2-3 years. Call me picky, but if I'm gonna enjoy Napier photo-real, I'd like it to at least look like Napier today, not be a time-warp trip... Know what I mean? Hence me not being in an overly large rush to have photo-real, knowing that much of the free stuff is just too old.

Not sure what age the stuff was that Mike was using. Eddy: what source imagery are you using, and how old is it?

Can anyone tell me where I can get a file called napier_fsxv2? I have tried to download it and no success. It would appear this is a recent version for FSX
Please help. I am looking more at the airport as mine appears to have a few black objects around the place

As Mike noted in the thread that you started, the file is available from Snowman's website: http://fs-snowman.com/

Note that it doesn't work so well with FSX Acceleration (I have Gold which includes Acceleration) - even with the object library loaded, I find that the airport is so complex that combined with it's non-Acceleration friendliness, my machine grinds down to 9-12 FPS whenever any part of the airport is in view, even from quite some distance away. NZEddy is working on a new Napier which looks more promising - might pay to wait for that.

Yup. Working on Napier atm which will take a long time to finish.
