Coming to my website in the next day or 2 will be a full ground up rebuild of NZNR Napier Regional airport with full custom buildings.

YES PLEASE !! Anything you could get would be of use.
I have a few Google Aerial shots, and various other photos ive found online ( some not so good, or very small),...... so anything extra would be of great help.

Glentanner was on my "to-do" list quite some time ago, but Hugh Palmer beat me to it with a scenery.
Hes also done Pukaki, Franz Josef, and Ruawai.
His Franz Josef is on my website, but the others arent.
If i can locate his original file zips,.... i'll upload them to my website.

Another new scenery soon to be released, a joint effort between Godfrey Tier, Charl Du Toit, and myself,.................

New Zealand Rural Airstrips Package Part-1. A collection of 9 small rural airstrips in the Bay of Plenty and Waikato regions of the North Island of New Zealand. Some strips have sloping runways. The ideal aircraft for these strips would be Deane Bounton's Fletcher Topdressing Aircraft.
The scenery features many custom buildings and other objects.
Scenery will also feature Fletcher and Air Tractor AI Aircraft at various strips, in NZ paint schemes.

NZR1 - Kauaeranga Valley Airstrip, approx 3nm from Thames in the Waikato.
NZR2 - Maniatutu Road Airstrip, near Te Puke, Bay of Plenty.
NZR3 - Kopu Hikuai Road Airstrip, approx 8nm from Thames in the Waikato.
NZR4 - Wright Road Airstrip, near Katikati, Bay of Plenty.
NZR5 - Port Charles Road, Waikato. 12nm from NZCX (Coromandel) * 34nm from NZTH (Thames)
NZR6 - Te Wairoa, Bay of Plenty.
NZR7 - Sisam Valley Airstrip, near Whakatane, (NZWK).
NZR8 - Stanley Road South Airstrip. 11nm from Whakatane.
NZR9 - Ridge Road Airstrip, Te Puke, Bay of Plenty.

Yep,......... that you can.
Good fun in a Fletcher, or an Air Truck, a Dromader, Cessna Ag Wagon, Piper Pawnee,.......... whatever tickles your fancy.........

NZTT Te Kuiti will be released shortly,......... another place to go flying your Fletcher around the hilly areas of the King Country.

Didn't think we could have sloping runways in FS9 Lawrie?

You can have a sloping runway in FS9,................ as long as it follows a Topo grass strip and the underlying mesh in NZ.........
You just cant have an AFCAD style runway, as they need to be "flat" for AI use...........
AI cannot use a sloping runway...........

Classic and old example of a sloping runway in FS9 is Aerosoft's "Luckla and Mount Everest" scenery.
A real challenging place to get in and out of !!
