Always great to see freeware like this still exists out there.

I'm having a problem installing this into P3D 4.5.  I added the three scenery files to my Add-on Scenery folder. However, after loading P3D and selecting the scenery option, Grand Rapids doesn't show up in the list.

Any suggestions?

Did you do all the steps including 5?

"Step 5 final Important   ''Scenery Layer Order''

This one isn't compatible with P3D V5 out of the box. 

One needs to add an exclude to prevent default scenery from popping through

Awesome! Thanks for the heads up!

For some reason, in v5.2, even with excludes...I have large swaths of white next to runways and taxiways (which also look washed-out).

I’m having the same issue, I assume it’s designed for v4.5.

Grand rapids never shows up in the list of add-on airports. So, I can't move them up or down.

If I missed a step it's not that one.

I have it working just fine in 5.2.   To get rid of the default blgs, in the \Prepar3D v5\Scenery\0302\scenery\ folder, turn off file OBX25160

Did you have ground texture issues as well you resolved?
