Nice shots. This new scenery is indeed fantastic.

I've just installed mine and it looks quite nice. Like most UK2000 products, the scenery doesn't go much further than the airport boundary. Otherwise, I quite like this airport, very nicely made.Cheers,Clem

Actually if the Ratcliffe-on-Soar power station is included (and it is displayed in one of NyxxUK's screen shots) that facility is actually something like ten miles away in the vague direction of Nottingham along the A53...and yes I live about 30 miles away and visit the airport on a regular basis.I wonder if someone might be kind enough to post an image of the car park. Silly I know but over the last year EGNX sadly went from being one of the most easy-access airports around to a rather annoying money-grubbing shambles where there is now "VIP parking", "taxi's only", and so forth. Plus you have to pay a minimum of one pound even for a 5 minute drop-off where this used to be free :( .I'm just curious which version Gary got in there!

Ted, sounds awfully like Leeds. Silly drop off/payment rules and now cones and traffic bullies to stop you dropping off in the side roads nearby. Bah.

Yes, that is true, as you can see from Julian's picture. It is a step further from their usual!Clem

I can confirm that Gary has included a model of the Ratcliffe power station in his East Midlands Xtreme package.

Why the question mark? Ted seemed to be unsure if the power station was included in the East Midlands Xtreme package. I am confirming it.

[Nyxx 6,993]

There is no ? it comes with the airport as you can see.

Home airport finally released - installed and already i'm back to flying in and out of it every flight! :( Now i've just got to IMAGINE my house being under the approach pattern until i learn scenery development :wink:Massive thanks to Gary - The scenery is absolutely fantastic!

[Christopher Low 5,332]

Sam,Do you have Playhorizon's VFR GenX photoscenery? I would assume that your house might be visible (although somewhat blurred) unless it has only recently been built. Which approach path is your house under?

It shows in my screenshot, so am wondering why you posted to confirm,

Haha love the screenshot of the parking lot...thanks for that. Pay kiosk and taxi stand totally accurate lol!With regard to the power station an earlier poster mentioned Gary's airports bieng somewhat short range in coverage beyond the airfield confines. Having Ratcliffe station included shows just how large the actual coverage area is!Hope that clarifies things and we can return to rubbernecking at this lovely airport :(
