Description
Hi there,
this is the enhanced version of the small airfield "Poltringen - EDSP" near Herrenberg in the south of Germany.
It is used for small planes and gliders but was incorrectly modeled in MSFS stock so I decided to rework it.
Features:
- corrected runway length incl. second runway for working glider start
- parking spots incl. 2 spots for glider start
- fuel spot with real-life modelled objects
- corrected terraforming
- custom material for aprons
- correct frequencies for "Poltringen Info" & ATIS
Custom modelled and textured buidlings and objects:
- Restaurant, tower, main hangar and other hangar buildings
- animated flag depending on wind strength and direction
- small sheds & rods
- fuel station
- half-way marker & ground markings
- windsock
- several signs, art, gate and other objects
Highly detailed objects have several LOD to increase performance and reduce memory amount.
Added life to airport with some planes and cars and people.
Installation:
- Make sure you delete the old folder "edsp-poltringen-airport-karlo" first!
- Just copy the folder "skydesign-airport-edsp-poltringen" to your community folder.
For best results, you will also need to install:
- Dave's 3D People Library https://flightsim.to/file/5452/dave-s-3d-people-library
- Mikea.at - AssetPack https://flightsim.to/file/1923/mikea-at-assetpack
Known issues:
EDSP has no own ATIS, but here it has :-)

Super gute Szenerie. Da ich nur wenige Meter entfernt wohne, bin ich mal hingegangen und hab die Szenerie mit dem Original verglichen. Einfach der Hammer!
Leider funktioniert die neue Version 1.7.0 bei mir nicht mehr, MSFS scheint sie gar nicht zu erkennen. Kann dies jemand bestätigen?

Hi, habe Dir gerade geantwortet - bei mir funktioniert die 1.7 problemlos, habe sie auch nochmal von hier runtergeladen. Näheres dann per Message wenn du noch Probleme hast.

Eine sehr gelungene Szenerie, die wirklich nah an das Original herankommt :D
Seit dem neuen Sim Update 11 sind Segelflieger ja auch direkt im MSFS umgesetzt. Der Start funktioniert hier jedoch nur über eine Piste, was die Schleppstrecke in der Szenerie leider nicht nutzbar macht.
Wäre es möglich, die Schleppstrecke als eigene Piste in die Szenerie einzufügen, um auch mit den Segelfliegern von Poltringen starten zu können?

Many thanks to SkyDesign for this scenery complementing other gliding ranges in southern germany.
Here a setup for power soaring in MSFS SU11 W11:
Even if SU11 locates he gliders always on existing runways at any airport, there is a workaround to move to glider range positions:
(in real world gliding ranges do not have "runways" as used by general aviation, in some cases the GA runways are used for lift off using tow planes)
Just drop the cable of the winch/tow plane and move the glider in "slew mode" to the real take off position for gliders:
Press "y" the move by "num-4,-6,-8,-2" depending on the direction to take or even rotate "num-7,-9-1-3".
After positioning of the glider, press "y" again to leave "slew mode".
For soaring in MSFS SU11 I currently use (my favorite glider is the AS33me):

For a soaring contest the same thermals can be loaded on different PCs

https://xp-soaring.github.io/tasks/b21_task_planner/ planning of flight tasks (Ian Lewis (B21))
Using this setup, the soaring conditions in SU11 are a mixture of ridge lift and thermals created by MSFS and thermals loaded by "kinetic-assistant".
The thermals processed by "kinetic-assistant" are more realistic, they can be bumpy or smooth, they even may kick you out at the edges.
"kinetic-assistant" still works in SU11, but the lift-off can be weary, since AS33 has its own winch lift, MSFS tow planes interfere with those of "kinetic assistant".
But with a little practice it works (see workaround above).
In the "aircraft.cfg" files of the gliders above the entry: ui_typerole="Aircraft" needs to be changed to ui_typerole="Glider" since SU11.
In addition you can use LittleNavmap https://albar965.github.io/ to navigate/track your flight on an "open-street-topo-map".
"LittleNavmap" is very useful for ridge soaring using the topo map and for your current VFR navigation around airports, which are quite dense in Europe (two monitors are needed to do that).
