    Description

    KPDK Dekalb Peachtree Airport

    DeKalb–Peachtree Airport (IATA: PDK, ICAO: KPDK, FAA LID: PDK), also known as Peachtree–DeKalb Airport, is a county-owned, public-use airport in DeKalb County, Georgia, United States. The airport is located in the city of Chamblee, just northeast of Atlanta. It operates 24 hours per day, although it is uncontrolled from 11:00 PM EST to 6:30 AM EST (Monday through Friday) or 7:00 AM EST (Saturday through Sunday). The airport has many hangars and is the second-busiest in Georgia. There is one helipad which is used by the four major network-affiliated television stations (WAGA, WANF, WSB and WXIA). PDK is also the home of AutoPILOT Magazine, an advertorial publication covering all things aviation-related. Nearly every building at the airport are handcrafted, with a few not done because the information from Google Earth was just to blurry and couldn't be determined what it is.  Three open hangars, Atlantic Aviation, Signature Aviation. and Aero Center EPPS Aviation. 

    History
    The area currently used by  PDK was a Army training camp during World War I for the 82nd Division.  In 1940 the land was converted into a Naval Air Station with operations beginning in March 1941, a few months before the United States entered into World War II.  The NAS later moved to Marietta and was called Dobbins Air  Reserve Base. NAS was eventually closed by base realignment and closure (BRAC).  PDK was converted from military to civilian use from 1957 to 1959. Commercial shuttle service began in 2017.  Ultimate Air Shuttle began operating commercial flights between PDK and Lunken Field in Cincinnati.  Service was expanded to connect PDK with Charlotte Douglas International Airport in 2019. However, service was suspended in 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

    Hey Daniel:

    Just wanted you and your scenery users to know that I made some static scenery for your excellent KPDK which will hopefully add a bit more realism to this busy airport. It can be found here: https://flightsim.to/addon/114973/kpdk-static-aircraft-for-kpdk-scenery-by-danielsjam

    Most recent update shows the auto-hangar doors floating 100ft above the hangers. I use MSFS 2020. Fixable?

    Only those hangars that are supposed to have automated doors are affected. Same thing happening at your KTRI airport. Sorry, don't know hot to attach screen shot.

    I reworked all animation and all worldscript files. It's hard to troubleshoot this because I'm not getting floating doors. From search on the net, this is a known issue, but there don't appear to be a fix. Not sure why you are getting this and I'm not. I sent you a PM with a link to download the reworked version. I will send a link for KTRI later. You could try a verify and repair using the xbox app. This will not erase any of your config info.

    Just a note to the dev: Proximity to a hangar door opens it in a payware scenery I have for 2024 if I remain stopped for a bit.

    I have seen that some payware from parallel 42 that use a remote to open close doors. Let me know what payware you have with proximity trigger. I have made progress on the proximity trigger and able to get the doors to close smoothly, but the open snaps. The blender animation is the problem, but I just don't have much experience with Blender animation. Also watching a lot of YT videos, but there are none on animated hangars doors. I'm just doing trial and error trying to get it to work. I'm using worldscript to make the proximity happen, but there is limited info in the SDK.

    Great work! Thanks for sharing. I use MSFS 2020 and don't see the animated hangar doors as noted in your recent v1.0.5.
    Does this only work for MSFS 2024?

    Yes it work in FS2020 which was used to create the scenery. I just downloaded it from flightsim to make sure there are no problems. You can trigger the animation by using the weather settings to change the time to something between midnight and 6am to see if the doors will close and after 6am to see if they will open. Also check here

    jd-airport-kpdk-atlanta\SimObjects\Landmarks and see if you have 5 directories
    atlantic-doors-front
    atlantic-doors-rear
    kpdk-epps-aviation-doors-front
    kpdk-epps-aviation-doors-rear
    kpdk-n-ramp1-hangar-doors

    I'm using the MSFS Addon Linker to manage my addons so I don't use the default community folder location for mods.
    If it's working in FS2024, then I would say that you have issues with FS2020, this verify that the download is good.
    If all looks good, you can try a verify and repair using the XBox app. I use it don't lose any of my configuration settings. If you have the flight yoke hidden, the doors will remain open between midnight and 6am

    Thanks for your help. Indeed, the doors work during the times you indicated. Very cool. It would have been great to have some sort of trigger apart from the time periods (i.e., keyboard command). I note with some other addons hangar doors can operate automatically every 2-3 minutes, which might also represent another alternative. I particularly enjoy the cold and dark parking spots within the hangars that you have implemented. Thanks again for your excellent work.

    Hide/unhide the flight yoke between midnight and 6am will open/close the doors. This does not work on certain planes in FS2024. The only thing I dislike about this is that this will open the doors on all hangars. I am thinking of having you tune the nav radio to a frequency for each hangar with a sign on the inside and outside of each with the frequency. I will also look at the keyboard option. There is also the proximity option that will open the doors when within a certain distance from the hangar.

    Indeed, the yoke hide/unhide works well. Appreciate the tip. Any of the other options you indicated would also be very useful. However would it be possible for any of the above options to work around the clock instead of 12-6am? Most of my flights tend to be outside these hours.

    So you would like an option to open the doors any time. If I remove the time option, the doors should remain closed until the yoke or what other option is used to open them. The only problem is that any AI traffic including airport vehicles that use the hangar parking will just taxi thru the doors. Not an issue for those that don't use any traffic. I will see what I can come up with.

    Personally, I would think the AI issue with the doors is an acceptable trade-off for the ability to open/close them 'on command.' Thanks for considering!

    I was able to get the doors to open by turning the NAV light on/off. The only thing with this is when you land with the NAV lights on, the doors will open regardless of the distance. I tried to use a light that is not normally used, like flood or panel. The sim will only allow NAV. I would like to get the doors to open by tuning the NAV radio to a certain freq which would have many freq to choose from. I'm also trying to get the proximity to work.
