But if your new to this project, you will first need to install---

vietnamwaraiscenerypack1.zip


and then install the update packs that include my scenery enhancements---

23tw_vnaf-a1_f5_bien_hoa_afb.zip
12tfw_f-4c_cam_ranh_afb.zip

all from Flightsim.com

I would like to make it clear that the original scenery is about 10 years old, and made with FSSC, ive done my best to make the ground polys and Afcads work, 95% successful i'd say, there are a few small areas where im getting bleed-through, FSSC generated taxiways dissapearing while taxiing, i hope this doesn't take away the enjoyment of this scenery.

cheers ian


 
This is an excellent project Ian and something that will bring back many memories to a lot of people who frequented those Phantom haunts in SEA during their tours.

There were a number of SEA airbase add-ons made for use in FS2002 I have been using in my FS Silver Wings 60 iteration that fit in well in FS2004. They cover Army and AF bases primarily, although Khe Sanh, a USMC airfield, is definitely included. I think their author was in the Army at the time and was stationed at many of these fields at various times. Do you think these AI aircraft, or the base pack, would conflict with that scenery?

i might be wrong but i think the airfields you mention may be by the same designer as the airfield were adapting, George Knowles.
these are the airfields we are covering---some have been released, some are still in the pipeline,

Bien Hoa
Cam Ranh Bay
DaNang
Hue
Nha Trang
Phan Rang
Phu Cat
Pleiku
Tra Noc
Dong Tac

We also have permission for a small update to Tan Son Nhut found within the Calclassic Indochina scenery by Mike Steven's, to accept F101 traffic

I haven't quite decided yet, but we may look at some of the major Thailand airbases also, but we'll get the Vietnam airfields out the way first
as long as the base's your using dont duplicate with the above you should be fine.
