Ratmalana International Airport (IATA: RML, ICAO: VCCC), is a international airport serving the city of Colombo, the capital of Sri Lanka. Ratmalana airport was declared open for small international commercial flights from August 2012. It was the country's first international airport and was the only international airport in Sri Lanka until the inauguration of Bandaranaike International Airport. The airport currently serves several domestic services and is home to several aviation training organisations. A relaxation of rules has recently seen the airport open for international corporate jet operations and charter flights. The airport is located 15 km south of the Colombo City.
Features:
High resolution ground textures
Photorealistic building textures with ambient occlusion effects
Many hand placed objects and static aircrafts (By Acceleration Repaints)
Custom modled sorrounding area
Dynamic lighths for all aprons
Custom runway, taxiway & Apron textures sensitive to rain
Tried PT Colombo Intl. Airport scenery in P3D4, & found working fine. No noticeable frames effect. Runway details are accurate to show even faded old markings. SLAF museum a/c can be seen, when using eastern taxiway. Night time dynamic lighting is good. Big thank you to the developer for the details, & scenery is highly recommended for SL aviation fans.
Few things to consider in the next update:
1. Scenery is matching Google maps details 100%, but limited to about 2nm radius from runway. This is rather too limited for a VFR circuit, even for a small Cessna a/c. Increase the scenery to include at least 5nm 22 approach path, & up to the shoreline in 04.
2. Include few parked a/c on the aprons & inside hangars.
3. Perimeter road is hardly visible, though vehicles can be seen.
4. Better to identify the scenery as 'Colombo Ratmalana Airport', to avoid confusing with VCBI.
If southern ground scenery is extended up to VCCN, scenery will be really outstanding.
Fantastic! Decent modeling if runway & markings, hangers accurately placed. The autogen buildings & tree placement is dense and looks stunning on either approach path, photoreal blends well with the likes of orbx global. Solid dynamic lighting for some enthused night flying action!
Outstanding product with Amazing amount of detail. Big thanks to the developper who has done this realistic scennery, we can see a wonderfull landscape as its really there. I have been to Colombo few months back on a business jet, and trust me this is close as it can be.
a great job by one of the best scenery-builders in Asia. Waited long time for some quality scenery for Colombo, and this is very realistic with good frame rates. Really worth the price i paid. Thank you to keep alive that scenery.
Glad to dinally have and own my own Home town's airport in Sri Lanka in the sim, and this has been by far the first accurate and the best designed scenery for VCCC, Colombo, Ratmalana airport. If you're up for VFR on light aircraft, then this scenery is a must along with ProTerrain's freeware Katukurunda airport, VCCN.
Performance wise: Very good on frames
Visuals: Beautiful with PBR and Dynamic Lights, along with photoreal aircraft near hangars and in the Air Force museum side.
Highly Recommended and worth the price!
