Refinery addons

Featured Replies

Are there any addons available that add refineries across large areas (for example, the UK)? Despite not being a big fan of PG close up, I have installed a couple of standalone packages of this nature, and they look quite convincing at a few thousand feet altitude. I guess that an entire UK package would not really be feasible, considering the disk space required for these PG addons. Nevertheless, I am curious to know if any (freeware or payware) are available.

There is a standard 3D model package available for the Lindsey Oil Refinery south of the Humber (left of the EGNJ Humberside runway 20 approach), but some of the models do not look all that good to me, and a few are actually floating above ground!

Makes me curious if some of the larger ones have been modeled in the US as well. I haven’t checked, there’s a prominent refinery near Newark but I’ve only flown in at night or in awful weather lately. I’d suspect it’s a mess of awkward PG unless you have an addon though.
