Yip , I still recall them taxing in on the single taxiway in Christchurch , two engines shut down rolling in .. the water pipe type frame and chicken wire fence .

[Riddlez]

Thank you! sure did grow up around the corner! And I agree Lawrie has done amazing things for the NZ Flight Simulation Community. Every airport in NZ is alot better thanks to him I mean every airport!

I heartily agree Lawrie. Your NP was good and I have enjoyed it (NP being my home base) but I am certainly looking forward to this updated version from an ex NP lad who was raised just around the corner from my home .It couldn`t be more accurate. Congratulations to Mr Ridland. And Lawrie it is so generous of you to acknowledge this improvement on your excellent portrayal of NZNP. You are still a master of scenery design.

Not sure if I should go Freeware or Payware as it does take a while to create with all the detail.[/quote]

Either way I'll be getting this and be happy to recompense you for your time.

That would be much appreciative! The biggest thing when making scenery is having access to lots of references photos to make it as accurate as possible. Obviously I'd give you the scenery for free if you helped out!

Nah don`t think so Ian. Jims café gets most of its custom from the travelling public. Plenty of flights arriving and departing from New Plymouth these days.

Great idea with the TV !!

Hawera scenery got parked up for a while due to other commitments. Now I have a new FS PC set up and running I will get it dusted off again. Its basically all done, but needs some tidying up.

[zk2704]

Definitely a first class scenery , But there is going to be a problem This scenery is going to compete against Lawrie's New Plymouth Scenery!!!

[Riddlez]

Does anyone have any photos or could get any photos of the Koru Lounge at New Plymouth??
I'm almost ready to release the Scenery and most of the Interior of the Terminal has been modeled, except the Koru Lounge and Baggage/Service Area. Will modeled the extra areas if anyone has photos of these areas.

Definately no problem here,.............
Im going to be the first to ditch my ancient old outdated NZNP scenery, and replace it with this beauty.
My FSX New Plymouth was only a quick and dirty conversion of my old FS9 scenery anyway, only intended as a "gap-filler" until something really good
like this came along......................

Lawrie.

[Riddlez]

Thanks Lawrie!
I wouldn't usually do another airport that someone else has done but since it was already half done and it is my home airport I thought I would release it.
