    BGBW Narsarsuaq Greenland - Image 1

    Description

    Finally, works with msfs2024.

    Compiled with sdk2024 1.6.4 and tested with fs2024 1.7.9 (SU5) with no addons, like navigraph or the taxiway one or anything else.

    Seems to work with bATC? I saw traffic on the ground there but I did not see anyone takeoff or land other than me, its a pretty quiet airport.

    OLD NEWS (the old download still exists and should still work in msfs2020):

    Made it work with WU13!

    If you have Real Taxiways Europe or Navigraph or bijan trees* make sure to exclude their version of BGBW, especially the real taxiways one, you only have to remove the single file that effects, not the whole installation.

    It's a pretty important airport for transatlantic crossing in small aircraft, and if you get into FSEconomy or other career sims you will probably end up here at some point moving a GA plane from Europe to North America or back. This is one of the most important airports not included in the stock simulator scenery.

    Key Features:

    Accurate runway and airport that doesn't exist in the stock simulator, including precise runway slope and lighting system

    Custom built terminal and hangar buildings

    Hand painted Apron and air-side facilities

    Terraforming and terrain fixing of the glacial river adjacent the airport

    Fixing stock urban issues, especially around the harbour and including various boats and wildlife

    POIs for the 5 small towns this airport serves

    Updated to 1.5

    -recompiled with 0.21.1.0, cleaned up night lighting and stock artifacts

    Updated to 1.4

    - recompiled in SDK 0.16.0
    - removed the windsocks from the runway
    - added and repositioned some features

    Updated to 1.3

    - fixed spelling of NarsaRsuaq (facepalm)
    - fixed colouring of letters/trim
    - added night lighting to the terminal model
    - learned to love and hate blender
    - removed stock beacon tower, placed beacon on top of control tower as per the real world

    Updated to 1.2.1

    - removed the vast majority of lake fixes as they are no longer required (2 had to be kept near waterfalls)
    - cleaning up the glacial river by the airport
    - recompiled in SDK 0.10.0

    *in the screenshots is the list of things I force deleted in the install to try to get it to work with Navigraph*

    - made PARKING 4 available with all services (fuel, catering, etc) for larger traffic

    Updated to 1.2 (January 11)
    - rework terminal for better height, better colour and small details, full credit to Trille12321!!
    - added fuel trucks and vehicle paths
    - added custom apron markings and taxiway markings
    - added POI towns in the area (5 total)
    - flattened a further 100 terrain glitches, now over 600
    - clean up the mountain to the southeast of the field (the entire road network is shifted incorrectly about 200m to the southwest. Except for the road itself, it is cleaned up)
    - took down the christmas lights
    - reordered the readme to read latest updates first

    Updated to 1.1 to work with 1.12.13.0 (VR update)
    - scaled the terminal slightly, ground crew don't need to duck to get in the front door anymore
    - smoothed out a number of items around the apron
    - recompiled with sdk 0.9.0.0
    - christmas surprise at night

    Updated to 1.0 to work with the latest version 1.1.1.7 as of mid December
    - COMBINED trille12321's absolutely fantastic terminal building and 2 main hangars (removed all stock buildings from the terminal, its now fully custom!!).
    - added about 150 more lake flattens, the total is now over 500
    - added local ground textures reflecting the old runway and some access roads
    - cleaned the glaciers and white textured lakes to make it the river flowing out of the glacier
    - removed some trees, there are far too many trees versus reality
    - added Narsaq POI (the main town of almost 1350 people)

    Updated to 0.5 to work with 1.0.1.7 or whatever we are on as of late October.
    - removed trees at the shoreline, it should only be rocks
    - added rocks at the shoreline, there should be no trees
    - changed stock buildings to closer reflect the dock in the harbour
    - added boats from the entrance to the fjord to the airport fishing in the area (helps to confirm you are going down the right fjord)
    - recompiled to work with the latest version, moved the camera focus point to under ground (it was visible with the latest update)

    Version 0.1
    -added the airport, apron, harbour.-replaced the autogen hangars with ones closer to photos, the terminal is made of stock parts.
    -terraformed the area around the hangars and terminal, the ramp was at 45 degrees
    -flattened the closest floating lakes along the cliffs of the fjords you navigate through on the approach, I got all the ones I could see within about 30nm, about 400 lakes
    -cleaned up near the town of Narsaq which is on the coast as you enter the fjord toward the airport.
    -gave the runway its precise 1.68% slope, the threshold of 06 is at 11ft and its 112ft at 24, that was the biggest deal beyond the airport not existing, also added the double papi-4 for 06 and the runway matches perfectly with foreflight and other moving map solutions
    -gave the airport a star so its easy to find




    things to do?
    get better satellite imagery underneath

    import the RNAV approaches (getting closer)

    Hi. I just downloaded the 2024 package, and the manifest file says that it's v1.5, not 1.7. Also, the name on the control tower is still misspelled. (?) Otherwise, this was the best version of this airport in my opinion.

    It seems an older build of the buildings found its way into the scenery, that was a mistake from 1.0! The MAIN picture on here of the file is from when it was corrected... D'oh!

    I hadn't touched this scenery for a couple years and I found out it was closing for real a few months ago (April 16) and thought I'd go see how it looked in 2024 after SU5 but the runway was all messed up.... so that took a few days to get back to passable. I must have grabbed an old copy of the terminal... bah. Thank you for the find.

    The things that are really special about that airport from a design point of view is the 100ft drop from one end to the other and its wild location that doesn't have great stock scenery to go with it. Making this special slope accurate on the runway was the whole point to make it in the first place coming from flat/stupid FSX/P3D material. This airport represented what the new sim could do! I don't even know if that runway slope survey page on the greenland AIP still exists to work with now that the airport is closed.

    I am contemplating releasing a final version (with your catch fixed) and with the airport switched to a heliport (as per the Greenland AIP) and put some yellow Xs on the runway, but it makes me sad. If I do, I will definitely always keep a still open version as well.

    Beautiful scenery for an ignored part of MSFS world. So nice to be able to have this airport and its very well done, thank you flightsimthree.

    Anyone thinking of using this scenery make sure you read the description for compatibility adjustments with a few addons.

    I am using MSFS2020.

    Just flatten it in 2024, the airport is unusable because of that... I used to solve it mikithomsen fix... to have it half working. With addons... :/
    You should redo the scenery... and i wont change annything in my 2024, it was always working fine. Installed with no problems scenery and addons everything worked fine until for the first time yours showed up. :(

    The slope of the runway and the elevation of the ramp is more important than a few bushes beside the runway. Learn what is important about this airport.

    There are other renditions of this airport as well with perfectly flat runways, but your crybaby attitude was quite rude. Rather than tell me what to do, perhaps you can learn how to make your own for the community.

    The gall!

    Guys, any update on whether the elevation problem is going to be fixed at all? So far in MSFS24, the airport is unusable because of that...:(

    It seems like that there's a bug in fs2024. BGBW was also like that in ps5 without addons... :/

    It seems to work for me in fs2024 without issues, please let me know if anyone discovers any

    yeah, seeing issues with elevations, there is a 20-30' cliff in the taxiways between the apron and runway, looks like its just stepped down from the approns altogether.

    Same issues as Trex226.
    Will it be updated?

    Nice one! Is it possible to remove the large building and the small tall antenna thing that is near the airport? I uploaded a photo in the user gallery of how it looks.

    Totally redoes the slope in a better way, should be much smoother
