Essential freeware?

is there any mod to get rid of those nasty taxiway blue lamps?

Nope...this is how the AI builds taxiways.  I just recently did my first airport rebuild and realized why this happens.  You can fix it but it requires rebuilding all the runways/taxiways from scratch and hand-placing the taxiway lights which is what I had to do in order to remove them.

Edit:  I want to give some props to the Air Mail route mod.    Follow it's beacons is a really nice way to relax in msfs.

Seems pretty decent to me. Flies so much better. The new avionics put it in a different class altogether from the default + mod.


Note though that the Longitude mod will break the new default (currently in beta release) Longitude. The mod is not currently compatible with the beta.

O.K., here's a test. How's the taxi/landing lights at night when viewed from within the cockpit?😐

I really admire this freeware regional airport and scenery...EDHK,Kiel-Holtenau. The amount of detail is amazing and the ships,and harbors add to the interest, as do the various helipads. There is so much going on. I'm not German, but, it's a pleasure to fly around this area in Northern Germany. https://flightsim.to/file/1920/edhk-kiel-holtenau

If you fly to Tokyo often, this enhancement for the Handcrafted RJTT is nice

Only done one full night flight but they seem to be ok as I never took note of anything being wrong with them. They were not too dim if that is your concern. Will take a closer look on the next night flight tho.

Looks great...I've visited Budapest and loved it. It should be fun to fly around the area...it appears very detailed. 

Thanks!

The real airframe is a Lear Jet,   I guess they didn't have a model and figured it was close enough.    The author is an Avsim member,  and post regularly.   I think they might be static displays IRL.

Could be just a static plane at the museum 😉 Imagine it has been transported here without its wings 😉 Ok, it a rotorcraft museum ;))))

Yep, I just picked something approaching from the MSFS default library (I don't like to use external lib and not 3D model enough capable). Initially, I wanted to put something in front of this hangar. Bing Map Street View-like shows the plane is flyable. Ok, I'll update it with a small Citation 😉 that should get thru between hangars.

Check my free MSFS sceneries : https://flightsim.to/profile/vbazillio/trending and my hardware configuration.

FSLTL is fabulous and is free.  I really like the Subtle-taxiway Ribbon as well.

That was quick,  just downloaded the new version!   Also downloaded the rest of your airports,   because I'm flying the DG808 down the entire west coast right now.  I'm really interested in the geology of the region.

Got your two bush flights while I was at it!

You do an exceptional job of making the regional airports look alive.   Particularly since your scenery uses default libraries and doesn't require any 3rd party libraries.  

Thanks for your contribution.
