Another Florida Airport Enhancement (and Fix this time!). This is a nice little airport that makes a great destination in the picturesque Space Coast area.

Merritt Island Airport (KCOI) is a General Aviation airport located on Merritt Island, on the east coast of Florida, northwest of Patrick Space Force Base and close to Cape Canaveral and the Kennedy Space Center.

Merrit Island needed terraforming and fixing, as the runway was unusable because of uneven terrain and glitches. (My plane did a full flip on the raised glitch when I tried to land there the first time! Like hitting a massive speed bump that was square!) These have been fixed, as well as a reduction and fix of the surrounding vegetation melted blobs that were everywhere. KCOI Merrit Island is flyable once again!

- Completely terraformed and flattened the airport to remove all terrain glitches that made the airport unusable.
- Removed most of the most egregious autogenerated melted blobs of vegetation around the airport.
- Trees and vegetation around the airport have been cleaned up.
- Replaced some default autogen buildings and hangars with more accurate ones.
- Windsock placement has been fixed and inaccurate windsocks removed.
- Tower beacon has been correctly placed.
- Added static elements, fuel tanks, fencing, vehicles and other bits to make the airport feel like a real place.
- The airport has been lit for night time with correct lights added.

Salasnet,

Thank you for this one. Merritt Island was the very first airport I ever flew out of with my father. At the time he was the main flight instructor for the Civil Air Patrol in that area and we used their Aeronca L-16 that they kept here. 

Followed the link in the readme and grabbed all of your other Florida sceneries this AM. It's good to see some 2024 Florida sceneries showing up. 

Thanks again.
