    EGHQ - Newquay Airport/ St Mawgan AB - Upgrade - Image 1

    Description

    This is a reworkathon of EGHQ Newquay Airport /RAF St Mawgan. 

    Back in olden times before we donkey punched grannies who came within 10 metres of us I often used to take the night train up to Gatwick to fly back to Newquay for the pure living hell of it. The seated carriage for the deadbeats who didn't book a bed made for superb pick pocketing too. 

    Nothing beats arriving in Newquay with grimy eyes and a greasy chuff knowing you have another 4-5 hours on buses and trains to go to wind up exactly where you started from 16 hours ago. Take it from me. 

    I've seen worse in sim airports but this still needed going over big time. Not too far off every single building has been liquidated and replaced or installed where there wasn't one before. I can't help that not too far off every single replacement building is beige. Did Asobo lose a bet? 

    On the industrial estate side there were roaming packs of tower blocks so they've all been wiped out and that whole section has been fiddled with too. It has been fenced to within an inch of its life but they couldn't cope with some gradients so they're a bit daffy in places. Other outlying areas have been populated such as the fire training bit. Lighting has been smeared liberally. 

    Other than the runway every single ground texture has been binned and replaced with something closer to reality but I did start to lose the plot with that so some are a bit cheesy still. The autogen terminal has been replaced with something much tastier than the real thing. You deserve it.

    Lots of diverse things happen here like plane scrappage and museums and there are a few bits and bobs for you to browse in those areas. Does it reflect reality? Nope, it's sexier. 

    This has a new taxi system. Planes now point the right way on the main apron which was my prime irritant. I tried and failed to change the name back to Newquay. 

    Spaces 20-23 on the main apron now have all of the ground services, but 20 and 21 are the ones for you if you're a big un, plus two on the south apron. The correct GA parking has been added on the top right. 

    There are two separate versions. 

    The main download is standard Newquay. the second separate download is the G7 edition to commemorate the sheer weirdness that G7 in Cornwall was. 

    This adds Air Force 1 and 2, some presidential vehicles, helicopters and V22s, the HMS Prince of Wales off St Ives - ICAO ASCI - lots of police and a few other bits and bobs. 

    The G7 version is a fair bit bigger so you may prefer to download the standard one instead. You download the version you prefer, there's no overlap. 

     

    V 1.7

    Updates both editions with some better ground textures, some added detail and sorting out some models made weird by SU6. 

    The G7 edition also gets a heliport at Treganna Castle in Carbis Bay - ICAO EGG7.

    I used this frequently on 2020, how does it run on MSFS24?

    Hello! I was wondering whether this one is still ok with the latest MSFS updates? I read something about trees in the comments?

    It's a bit tree ish still.

    I have got started on it, but I'm not going to do anything until 2024 is out as the aerial image for 2020 might update at the same time which could wreck everything.

    This needs a lot of brushing up so it might be quite a while before it's properly improved.

    Hey there Superspud....just noticed after the WU17 UK and Ireland...theres now trees all over the approach lights from the westerly Mawgan Porth end..along with a few conifers along the runway...
    I'm assuming this is Asobo and their over active tree planters working overtime...
    Any chance we could have an update to remove these...and while I'm here...could peeps see of trees are all over their cliffs like I'm now seeing...wondering what addons to use to tidy up the coastlines again...all the best Spud

    They got me again? Sheesh. This badly needs a proper update but that'll have to wait. I'll give it a prune in the next day or two.

    There's a second choice to download, the G7 one has more aircraft. There's a dropdown option when you hit the download button.

    This is gonna become a popular AFB for HB/IFE F14 Tomcat users as it provides the best airfield for carrier training of the Miltech CVN78 carrier in the English Channel. After having downloaded and played with it G7 version its a beatifully detailed little scenery perfect for training drills!

    Hi, firstly thanks for all the addons that you have produced.
    Since the last SIM update my overall frame rate has gone u p to around 40-60fps (don't have the highest spec pc) which is great. I am having issues with some of your UK airfields particularly St Mawgan and St Mary's with frame rates of only 1-12. (not high detailed glass cockpit just the likes of C140 etc.
    Any ideas?

    Is this since the sim update only?

    Both are just dumb scenery and neither are particularly heavyweight so I can't think of much reason why.

    It's usually another mod that meddles with the sim in a more fundamental way.

    I guess start off with only here in the community folder, see if it's the same, and if it isn't you'll need a process of elimination.

    It seems to be, had not noticed it prior, I quite often run flights from in that area Newquay to the Scillies etc or from Bristol down to the area. Yesterday as soon as I got within about 15 miles of Newquay the frame rate dumped.
    Probably first flight since last Sim update.

    Hi,
    Had a check through all the addons that I was using (Use MSFS Addons Linker to install regions being used). so removed all adding them in sections until the issue recurred.
    The scenery that seems to be causing the problem is the latest Culdrose update. With that removed and all the other ones reinstated I was back up to 50+ fps.
    Sorry' not sure if that helps or gives you a headache!

    The only noticeable difference with the latest version of Culdrose will be extra ships moving around. Other than that the only changes have been to make it a bit less demanding.

    Try deleting the scenarii folder in the Culdrose package and see if that makes any difference. Beyond that I can't think of anything.

    This is awesome! Just wish the touchdown zone markings were the UK kind and not the solid bars like the US. Also, starting at the terminal the plane is angled so aggressively to the taxilane.

    This is due a muscular revamp soon with proper bullidngs etc. I need to get some other stuff done and go down there with my droopy lens too before I can.
