KCHA_Lovell_Chattanooga_v1.0.0
Every building on the airport are handcrafted 3D models, with the exception of the ILS, Glidesloe antennas, red and white sheds and light poles. I'm still using sketchup because haven't taken the time to learn blender yet. I give credit to Texture dot com for all the textures used in this scenery. This airport was started with the release of p3dv5 but never finished. The copper dome on the terminal building is my first attempt at PBR, I think it turned out ok. I searched for a way to turn of the floating light orbs, but no luck, from other comments on the net, I think they are part of OSM, like the roads, can't be excluded. If someone know how to turn them off, please leave a hint.

This is what I've been waiting for, for so long. The only thing I'm seeing that is missing is the Parking Garage and the ramps that go to Hwy 153 access. I also didn't have the FedEx plane parked when I loaded up didn't know if that was included in the scenery.

I'm using Google Earth to build the footprint and estimate the height for buildings. I don't see a parking garage on the satellite imagery that is available. I don't see it on the Bing imagery either. Satellite data used in Google Earth and Bing are old and outdated. This data will not be updated anytime soon unless something major happens that requires an update. The FedEx 757 is from offline AI traffic using AIG-AIM and AIGTech Traffic Controller and I have not seen it or any other FedEx aircraft using online AI.

Thanks for this excellent mod to KCHA airport... Great work! The whole airport is now so much better and more realistic. It's a real pleasure to no longer dodge taxi lights blocking the taxiways. The buildings and roadways all look great now as well... and even the solar panels at the south end are now present and look great!

Man, how many times do I have to update this thing? Is it this website saying I have not updated this over and over? Or are you updating this multiple times?
2 years ago
Daily updates right now. It's free, actively supported, lightweight and of great quality. What's not to like?

Appreciate your work and continued improvements!!! I was curious... when landing I don't get a "Taxi to Gate" option, just North or South GA Parking, Taxi for Takeoff, or Ground Services. Is this something that can be added/incorporated? I do know I had the same issue with a payware airport and they corrected a .bgl file and resolved it (if that might be of help).
Again, thank you for your work and contribution!

Scenery looks great! I just downloaded it, so am on version 1.0.2, and I have a giant default tower at the airport overlaying the one you added.

I accidentally deleted the polygon around the tower. Corrected - v1.0.3 uploaded. Thanks for catching that, enjoy.

Thank you for the airport. Looks nice. The light post are too close on both ends of RWY 20/02. I am not sure if this is how it is in real life. Just wanted to let you know.

Yep, was thinking the same thing while placing them. I uploaded v1.0.2 which removed them. Thanks for downloading and enjoy.

Do you have static aircraft there. I was directed to a parking spot that had a plane in my spot. If you do, is there away to remove the statics. I prefer AI planes. I see a lot of developers adding a lot of statics, but I think a lot of people prefer not to. They take up space. Thanks

No static, the aircraft you are seeing are AI. Unless you have traffic set to off, you will get AI.
