Well, I decided to take the Nestea plunge and do a bit of scenery development in FS2004, starting with designing my own airport.  So far, using AFCAD 2.21 and the MS BGL SDK, it's been *relatively* straightforward.  Radar dish(es) rotate, control tower looks boffo, ILS approach behaves properly and so on.  I've been able to put in all of the appropriate buildings as well with one exception:  the ILS localizer antenna array.  The other two components are there in the SDK Excel spreadsheet list as follows:

ILS localizer hut:  "SCO_gen_ilstransmitter"
code:                 7328626911d303801000859c2ae60c5a

ILS glideslope hut w/antenna: "SCO_gen_checkershed"
code:                  c545a27011d2e2ec1000849c2ae60c5a

The one I can't find is the long narrow array that sits some five hundred feet off the end of the runway aligned parallel with the threshold end that consists of multiple yellow T-shaped antennas on a bar.  One would think it'd be part of the SCO_gen_ilstransmitter construct but as far as I can tell, it isn't.

Anyone know the title/code for it?

Also, long as I'm on the topic, the only windsock I see in the list is an nasty-looking grey thing.  Anyone know the code for the default orange-colored windsock?

Thanks.

Some followup info after furthering tinkering and cursing.  I figured out how to do the windsock (plowing through the unpleasantly bug-ridden BGL SDK documentation did the trick).  Even got my rotating beacon up and at 'em but I'm still stuck on the ILS localizer antenna array issue.

Any takers here?
