Aerial imagery for PHNL - Daniel K. Inouye International Airport exracted from Google Earth. This add-on significantly improves the quality of the ground textures surrounding the Honolulu airport. This is a scenery package containing a giant ground texture with georeferencing and some scenery items. It is meant to be used with LimaJuliet and DanielK's PHNL scenery packages (the screenshots shown here were taken with the other two packages installed).
Version history:
1.0:
- Initial version, Covers area south of H1 and South Avenue.
1.1:
- Covered up some undesirable 2D clutter on aerial imagery close to taxiways with ground texture polygons
- Added a few antenna objects where they appear on aerial images
- Added B2 bombers where they appear on aerial images (model by https://sketchfab.com/manilov.ap, textures by me)
- Added a couple of hangars near entrance
Installation:

HaHa. I also got both PHNL and PHTO from MN. I also would love some aerial improvement for the other 3 main islands' airports. Hopefully @Marionettework uses his talents to complete all of Hawaii.

There are a few missing buildings around the main terminal. Can you update them too?

I don't really intend to do yet another scenery package, there are already two. I hope the other freeware scenery builders continue improving PHNL. The most I would do is cover up ground textures with polygons and perhaps add some clutter.

Does it work with the new PHNL freeware scenery?
Marionettework author
Absolutely, I made this aerial image after seeing the new PHNL scenery by LimaJuliet, otherwise it wouldn't be worth doing.

can create one for kuwait airport

Keep in mind this is only worth doing if the Google maps aerial imagery is much better than the Bing imagery, I don't know if that's the case for all airports.

Always happy to see new content for us folks who (live / fly / both) in the islands! The default MSFS/Asobo stuff left much to be desired.
Just one suggestion - you might want to note that South Avenue is on Joint Base Pearl Harbor Hickam to the west of PHNL in your description. I had to look it up and I live across the island lol! 😊
