[Freeware Airport] EGTK - Oxford Airport

London Oxford airport is a relatively small airport to the North West of London, which sees primarily private jets and general aviation aircraft.

The airport is unfortunately only available as a runway in the base simulator, and therefore this has become my first project while familiarizing myself with the SDK.

The airport has been constructed to be as close to the real thing within the contraints of the SDK and without custom models.

Known Issues

Night Lighting is not present
There is little night lighting available outside of the main runways, this is due to issues with the SDK and scenery creator, which place taxiway edge lights hundreds of meters from the runway. This is not an issue I am able to fix at present.

Odd types of vehicles are parked in some areas
Unfortunately there is little reference material available on the types of script needed to change the vehicles which are able to spawn, however it is being worked on.

Refuelling areas are not designated
Currently there is no way to stop a refueling area generating extra equipment, which is randomised each time, and therefore causes issues with taxiway width and buildings.

Without custom models? That’s amazing!

I was afraid it would need a lot of Blendering to get those buildings there!
