KCUI Chippewa Co International Airport

Here is interesting video on adding dynamic lights however, it mentions P3DV4 using MCX. Perhaps same methods can be used for your sim or you
may of already done this with your airport.

Thank You

I tried to add the spotlights with MCX and they did not show up when doing NAAS Corry Field. They do not work in any other sims besides P3D V4.5 or later according to Arno. Its a new thing in P3D late versions but does not work in either earlier P3D or FSX because of the programming. Thanks anyway. I am going to see about approaching this as I did the hanger and see how that works. Posts later.

Here Is The Final Version

I have stretched my skills to the limit trying to finish this. Here are two screenshots of the terminal day and night. I am satisfied with all the doors and windows but no matter what I watched/tried I was unable to untile the texture for the "billboards". I am providing the mediafire link to my final version. I hope you can enjoy all the work that went into it.

With Success At KMBL

I am going to redo the night texture for the airport sign over the canopy instead of the "baby spots" look it has now. I am going to try the same technique that I did with Manistee with a texture of the sign and then create an LM of it so that it looks nice not "silly". More later here.

Now That I Know

Now that I know how to do this, it only took me 1/2 the time that it did last night and achieved I think good results. Much better than that flash bulb effect before. Here are a couple screen shots and a download link to the new airport.

Now That That's Fixed

I went out this morning to check the airport flight schedule (real) and found that CSA Air Cargo flies in and out. Found both the textures for the HTAI C208B Cargomaster in Fedex livery and also the winter Flightplan though its 2018, that's alright for simulation. Installed both. Then I checked the timetables and they fly all over Michigan including the airports here in recent posts. Went out to Grand Rapids and Pellston. There were 4 aircraft waiting at Pellston, so cool.

Here are a couple of screenshots: The first is at Pellston, the second at Grand Rapids and the third at Chippewa County.
