Welcome to the Real New Zealand Dunedin, scenery for FSX, FSX Steam Edition, Prepar3d v3 and v4. This is the first 'Real New Zealand' scenery for some time, so here's a quick intro to what 'Real New Zealand' represents.
'Real New Zealand' means photographically accurate airports and points of interest, on the highest quality aerial imagery available for the area. I always visit and photograph Real NZ airports myself, as real photo textures are what defines a Real New Zealand scenery, along with some serious thought about what makes the airport special.
Features:
- 2,400 square kilometres of Photoscenery covering the Taieri Plains, Dunedin City, Otago Peninsula
- Detailed airports -- NZDN and NZTI
- City and surrounding points of interest
- Prepar3d v3 ground textures for forward compatibility
- FTX NZSI compatible
- Default/Vector Land Class compatible
- 5 metre elevation mesh for city, peninsula, hills and coastline
- SODE controlled airbridges at NZDN
- SODE-operated custom windsocks
- Full autogen coverage
- Custom vegetation autogen classes for more realistic southern trees
Why Dunedin? From a flightsim scenery point of view, NZDN is just a terminal in the middle of a paddock. Luckily there's also Taieri Airport, the home of the Otago Aero Club, From the Aeroclub website: "The Otago Aero Club is the oldest aero club in New Zealand dating back to 1927. Taieri airfield has a rich history and was once an active RNZAF base." It has a southern charm which represents a part of New Zealand which is being lost in more northern parts.
