    KNYL MCAS Yuma, Yuma International Airport - Image 1

    Description

    Place included package folder named:  airport-knyl-yuma in the Packages/Community folder applicable to your MSFS installation.

    This scenery package contains enhancements to existing scenery for MCAS Yuma/Yuma International Airport as follows:

    • Correction to ILS 21R Approach alignment.
    • Replacement of all taxiway and runway signage.
    • Creation and addition of custom DASR Radar model.
    • Creation and addition of custom PAR antenna model.
    • Creation and addition of custom TACAN antenna model.
    • Creation and addition of custom T Shade aircraft parking models.
    • A-Gear motor placement (Native MSFS Models).
    • Some minor building and hangar placements (Native MSFS Models).
    • Some enhancement to vehicle parking at terminal (Native MSFS Models).
    • Addition of refueling areas:  GA Ramp Self Serve and Military Fuel Pits.
    • Re-arrangement and addition of aircraft parking:
      • North Parking = Customs
      • Gate = Terminal
      • Northeast Parking = Military Ops and North (Rotor Wing) Fuel Pit
      • East Parking = Military Parking Lines and Fixed Wing Fuel Pit
      • Southeast Parking = Military North CALA
      • South Parking = Military South CALA
      • West Parking = T Shades, Million Air FBO, Hero Hangars, and Care Flight
      • Northwest Parking = Northwest Hangars
    • Improve taxiway lighting.
    • Addition of some water towers and water tanks (Native MSFS Models).
    • Addition of some ground personnel at parking spots (Native MSFS Models).
    • Addition of ramp lighting (MSFS Models).
    • Some landcaping to hide MSFS auto generated infield asphalt, which is incorrect.

    Primary initial goal was to re-align the ILS localizer signal that was off by a few degrees.  Secondary goal was to correct some missplaced and incorrect signage, which ended up being an entire replacement of taxiway and runway signage.  Sign proofreading and editing is ongoing for improvement.  This scenery is not yet intended to be a complete visual re-creation of the airport and this scenery still relies on many auto-generated buildings and other automatically generated objects. 

    Future attention will be to create realistic hangars and buildings to replace the basic models placed on the airfield as well as to replace some auto-generated buildings.  Additional landscaping will be included later to roughen up and otherwise enhance the auto-generated airfield layout.

    Existing issues for future improvement are: 

    • Fuel trucks can be slow to respond due to extended travel distances.  Enhancements pending.
    • MSFS ATC only taxis departures to the main parallel runways but this seems to be a generic MSFS issue.  Troubleshooting continues.
    • Limitations on ramp naming conventions for ATC.  Use the list above for ramp selection when using MSFS ATC.
    • Interaction of adding an airport over existing airport erases many painted lines on the ramps.  This will require manual painted line placement later.
    • Auto generated landscaping is too crisp and visually unrealistic.  This will be enhanced soon.
    • Taxiway light spacing on long straigh routes needs to be adjusted for wider spacing.

    Looks great! Kinda works in 2024. Just missing the shelters for the military parking. Any chance we could get that? Still looks amazing.

    Overall this airport looks great and thanks for doing the freeware. It would be great if there was a static F-35B model to incoprate into the scenery as the case has something like 4 squadrons there.

    Some of eh aircraft shelters have had auto-gen buildings spawn under them. I've provided an image. Some of the static F/A-18s also have landing lights on.

    Yeah, this is one of the best sceneries available on this site... everything custom, you haven't skimped on anything. I'm an nerd for everything ATC (and it's my job!) and the attention to detail having put a PAR antenna next to the runway is something that got me excited. Would be so cool if even VATSIM could simulate doing a PAR approach.

    5 stars, hands down as-is, and looks like you keep improving and updating it too. I love it!!!

    Thank you for the comments. A live PAR controller would be pretty cool. Next update the PAR will have some better detail and will turn to face the runway approach with regard to the wind direction.

    ILS for 21R works great. I did run into several "hidden" bumps and dips on some of the taxiways. The visual graphics show the taxiways as "flat and level", but in the trouble areas the plane will pitch up or down, as if going over a bump or dip.

    Thank you, I do have a running list of the bumps and want to get those smoothed out soon. It's mostly a problem created by attempting to make the various ground elevations realistic (terraforming). The method to do this in the sim can create some "knuckles" where two or more terraforming shapes come together. I do like the visual effect of the subtle variances of the terrain heights but the bumps bother me. Anyway, it is something I want to improve for sure.

    Great job ! Love this airport ! The rotating Airpot Surveillance Radar adds more realism. Animations add life in msfs 2020.

    Scenery includes enhancements to Yuma Airport auto-generated scenery. This enhancement primarily was initially created to correct ILS alignment and to correct taxiway and runway signage. New models were created for Airport Surveillance Radar, Precision Approach Radar, TACAN, and T Shade Parking. Other enhancements are included and/or pending.
