Local Taupo resident here.
Had done this airport a while ago but decided to upload it for those here to enjoy and also for the ability for the Sounds air PC-12 that is now on AIG manager to use this airport properly.
It's just a basic airport with lots of parking spots around the airport to reflect this very popular fly in fly out VFR and the size of gate 5 is reflective of it's current use as a medium parking for large business jets that fly in VIPs to the 5 start resorts fround around the Taupo region, still a wee bit of a work there are helipads but I need to learn how to make them an actual parking spot.
Hope you guys enjoy it.

What's the huge terraformed pit for? Is that there IRL

Not quite at that extreme but they are there and they are definitely steep.
They are lava channels found all round Taupo when that massive big lake was one of the worlds largest super volcano 95AD !!! Legend has it that the Romans and the Chinese saw a red glow on the horizon
