..........For some really great scenery!!!!
I downloaded your scenery for the famous Kai Tek Airport and I must say,...you certainly did your homework. This is a great add on and a big "Thank You" for your generous donation the flight sim community. I have so many shots, I did not know what to post. Grin

Here a few from the taxi and take off.......
The approach shots will come later!! Shocked

...I just need to get up the nerve! Grin

The tower gives us the go ahead as we roll past the apartment complexes that dot the outskirts of the airport.

Rumbling past the baggage handling trucks.....

The huge jet makes its way to the take off position.

The tower gives this Cathay Pacific Airliner the green light as the four engines start to spool!!

This huge heap of metal starts to roll down the runway!

Rotation and take off from the famous Kai Tek!!!

Will post more later of the checkerboard approach!
Thanks Roger for some real great scenery!!

Yup there is an FS9 and a 2k2 version available. Go to 2k4 scenery downloads its one of the fairly early ones, and its great.
Dave, nice shots, and I'm glad to see you stopped flying that Indian rustbucket!

Blimey Dave - haven't had a lot of time lately to come to the forum. Dropped in here like I always do and waddayaknow. Didn't know what to expect when I saw my name in the index!

I am so pleased that people are enjoying the ole scenery. I'm amazed. Official downloads of the 02 and 04 packages combined are now just on 16000 with just under 75% of those being on Simv!

Bet that'll surprise a few folks who like to look down their noses at this site a bit compared to the other more 'professional' ones. How do you spell RHUBARB - is that right? Cheesy

I also keep coming across it on some other sites but that's OK by me as long as no-one's trying to make any money out of it.

I'm so busy right now (working on a new website for my business) I just haven't had the time to do any more design stuff. I know what I want to do to add missing bits - just can't find enough hours in the day. Never mind, can't go on for ever....

Anyway, thanks to everyone for their kind words. It makes all the effort worth it - but it's still strange seeing pics of my scenery with other aircraft in it.

BTW if you haven't got the AI loaded, take the time to do it. Especially make sure you keep the small GA stuff activated because if you carefully follow the instructions to edit cfg files, a lot of that starts and finishes at the Aviation Club (in reality, at the very end I understand that because the place was SO busy, the Club was allowed just ONE SLOT per day. What price on that eh?)
