This airport turned out good considering most of the imagery on Google is badly distorted and hard to distinguish the shapes of buildings or get an acutual height measurement.
Monroe County Airport (IATA: BMG, ICAO: KBMG, FAA LID: BMG) is a county-owned public-use airport located four nautical miles (7 km) southwest of the central business district of Bloomington, a city in Monroe County, Indiana, United States.
Facilities and aircraft
Monroe County Airport covers an area of 1,035 acres (419 ha) at an elevation of 845 feet (258 m) above mean sea level. It has two asphalt paved runways: 17/35 is 6,500 by 150 feet (1,981 x 46 m) and 6/24 is 3,798 by 100 feet (1,158 x 30 m).[1]
As constructed, the original runway was 5,200 feet (1,585 m) but was later lengthened to 6,500 feet (1,981 m) permitting the operation of Boeing 727 aircraft. In 1995, the aircraft parking ramp was completely replaced allowing for the handling of larger planes. 13 hangars were added at this time as well. Fixed Base Operator (FBO) services and car rentals are available. There are two FBOs at the airport: Cook Aviation (owned by Cook Group) and BMG Aviation.
Commercial carriers offered scheduled service to and from Monroe County Airport until the late 1990s. Operations at Monroe County Airport received federal funding under the Essential Air Service program until 1997, when these subsidies were cut due to the airport's proximity to Indianapolis International Airport. After the loss of these subsidies, it was no longer economically viable for commercial carriers to operate at Monroe County Airport.

I forgot to change the version number in the manifest.json file with the latest update. It is indeed v1.0.1. You can open the manifest file in notepad, change the line "package_version": "1.0.0" to 1.0.1, save file. Make sure it still have the json extension, or dload it from my Gdrive https://drive.google.com/file/d/1F3trY_IQzHIFWMdxUJrYxKcdI-t_2Vas/view?usp=share_link

WOW! What a great and accurate rendition! Have flown in and out of Monroe Coutly countless times and simulator versions have lacked resemblence. This one is true to life, including character due to color rendering of the various facilities and a colorful array of aircraft and parked vehicles.
It also includes a parking spot inside a sizable open hangar that is very nicely outfitted, allowing you to spawn from there as if it is your own personal hangar!
He certainly has done it justice! Take a couple of minutes and compare it to the MSFS default KBMG to understand just what James has done here!

Wow! Flew into this KBMG well after dark last night and found the night lighting to be absolutely incredible! So many airports are lifeless. Not this one. This airport is alive!
