airports in french guyana
--------------------------------
Here is a pack of all airfield in french guyana included main international airport "rochambeau" but also small GA airfields. The fields are all in one package (with separate BGLs for each airfield) to reduce the numbers of new entries in the community folder .
I discovered recently that when creating new airport in DEV mod we can make several airport in one package and then compile with the SDK
So I recommend as much as possible to all scenery designers who make multiple airfields in the same area to put them together in order to make one package to drop in the "community" folder otherwise the community folder will be full of thousands entries very soon....)

ICAO city airport name

What was the original filename? I wasn't prompted to overwrite an existing file after moving it to my folder.

original filename or folder is "guyana" or "guyana airports" delete it and copy the new folder into your community folder

why does this not show when i search "guyana" i found it by accident...what other guyana sceneries are hidden here?
timot75 author
it seems that we can only search by "airport ICAO" "airport name" and "city name" not by region nor countries

Thanks for your work. It was interesting to monitor the height of the trees on final at SOCA 😊

Hello ! I downloaded this file and tested it immediately. Interesting to see several airports there but one thing should be improved. Too many high trees are disturbing approach of taking off. Can't these tree be excluded if it is not so in real word.

hello to you
of course I can reduce tree size, but I think in this tropical amazonian forest trees are very tall, from what I was told by some people
and landing are quit difficult to be done safely....
but if you find some airfields impossible to land on, let me know I will fix it
