Mount Gordon Airport is a small private airport serving the Capricorn Copper Mine (formerly the Mount Gordon Mine) and Gunpower Mine. It is about 10km SE of the Capricorn Copper Mine, 30km NE of the Gunpowder Mine, and 100km NW of Mount Isa. The airport is operated by the mines' owner Lightouse Minerals for general support flights, FIFO flights for mine workers, and medical flights to the area. All other movements must have prior approval from the company.
The main focus was to add the apron that was visible in the satellite imagery but not included in the airport model. This scenery uses the old apron layout with one stand, but I can update it to include the newer layout with two stands if there is interest. This scenery uses all stock assets, you don't need to download anything else for it to work.
Version 1.0:
- Fixed runway 08/26 to have a tarmac surface, added edge lighting and custom runway markings
- Added PAPI lights for runway 26
- Added apron
- Added parking locations on the apron
- Added windsock and pads
- Added gables and cones around runway
- Replaced autogen buildings with more suitable structures
- Removed blurry autogen road near airport
- Removed airport service vehicles
- Misc. scenery and vegetation fixes/additions
Known Issues:
- No perimeter fence (won't happen until Asobo develops a fence tool)
If I've overlooked anything or you have any suggestions, please leave a comment.
Thanks, and enjoy!
