As with all my scenery, it is created to use Rhumbas new world mesh & show off the huge amount of work Dick carried out in providing this more accurate mesh. That said, it has it's own watermasks & excludes, so it should work with an old world install.
TBH an "old world" install should just use the old Pen32win Port Moresby & Maskrider Papua New Guinea airfields.

Thank you.
A bit OT: is there a good (or at least acceptable) GSL randition of Rabaul for stock meshes? I use an "old world" install for South Pacific, mainly because of stock airfields and all the old missions/campaigns I have, but I have always been quite frustrated by how "empty" Rabaul area looked like.

Myola Lake proved a tough landing ground to make use of. Unsuitable for DH84s or C47s, they tried to get a Hudson in there & it nearly lost it's undercarriage on the way out. They used a Ford Trimotor but that overturned on landing. They were more succesful using USAAF O-49/L-1 Vigiliants for CASEVAC.
But no FS version of the Vigilant exists, so I've converted Joe Binka's "Shaky Jake", a Cessna 195, & given it a 1942/43 USAAF ambulance paint job as a stand-in ...

THe Kokoda Track gsl is completed, I 'm now starting on the gsl for the Port Moresby area itself - this may take some time. Meanwhile, here's a few screengrabs to hold your interest.

So nobody noticed the windsock object in the screengrab above
I did. It is excellent, like all of your work, so it doesn't really stand out by itself. That's a big compliment BTW. But it explains why it wasn't singled out for comment. Does it rotate with the view or is it stationary?

I showed John's screen shot to my wife, who grew up in Port Moresby. Her family home was on Paga Hill (aka ack ack hill). She gives it her tick of approval.
Years ago I saw my Father-in-Law's photos of wartime Moresby. At one end of Ela beach, out at the end of a jetty, was an officers' club. Along the top of the hill was a handful of houses with wide verandahs.
