Lowering an add-on airport

[GHD 21]

I have an airport which was designed for FS2002. Having now got a new mesh, I would like to lower the flatten area by a few metres. Is there a simple way to do this?George

do you have the source files for the airport?Bob Bernstein

No, just the bgl's and bmp's. Is there a program which will decompile the bgl's?George

there are a couple, but I've never found the output useful. I'd start by contacting the author. Ask for the source files to lower the aiport to fit the mesh you have. They may be grateful. Bob B

Thanks Bob,The author is uncontactable, the files are dated February 2002.George

I guess the other approach would be to alter the mesh to fit the airport.That can be done with an LMW polygon.B

I just did a search on AVSIM main library level using the word "disassemble". Brought up 6 or so files. SCDIS was the only one I've ever used that seemed to work.Good luck!Bob B
