London Elstree Aerodrome, UK - hand-crafted airport
Another airport re-crafted from scratch to match the real-world features as closely as possible. It mostly uses stock objects but it includes custom taxiway paint markings and custom model for rugby posts on 26 approach (crazy close to the glideslope!)
Enjoy it!
Info:
London Elstree Aerodrome (ICAO: EGTR) is an operational general aviation aerodrome located in Elstree, and is situated 2.6 nautical miles (4.8 km; 3.0 mi) east of Watford, Hertfordshire, England.
Elstree Aerodrome has a CAA Ordinary Licence (Number P486) that allows flights for the public transport of passengers or for flying instruction as authorised by the licensee (Aldenham Aviation LLP).
The aerodrome has one runway aligned roughly east–west. The runway (08/26) is 2,136 feet in length.
Includes:
- Completely overhauled airport from scratch
- Runways and taxiways base on airport charts.
- Custom runway and taxiway paint markings
- Taxiway signs
- LITAS (PAPI - accurate 4.5 degree slope)
- Custom model for rugby posts on 26 approach
- Over 200 other hand placed stock scenery objects (inc. hangars)
- Added ground ATC
- Night lighting

Extract the "gobby-elstree" folder to your /Community/ folder.
Notes:
· The PAPI (LITAS) lights for 26 approach are not exactly as EGTR. It has a 3-3 formation of lights in real-life, but a 2-2 formation is the closest available.
· I've noticed a slight drop in frames due to lots of general aviation planes. I included over 50 parking spaces to accurately reflect how busy this airfield is.

I have asked a few developers here to seriously redo EGKB - Biggin Hill for a while, since it is now my local airfield and flying club. 2 Skyhawk repaints were done for the flying club and london Biggin hill needs some serious touches by you, with your accurate skill. Any Chance you can remake in default this airport for us Kent/southeasterners please? it will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!!!
Cheers!!
