Hi everyone i've noticed around that there isn't any freeware scenery for manchester airport so i've decided to take the challenge of making some scenery for the airport. i'm pritty new to making scenery but i will have a go at it.
i've only just started so i haven't got any screen shots for you but i will keep you posted as i progress.

thanks

Aidan

Looking good so far :hrmm:.

Just stick to the project. If you get stuck, don't quit; otherwise you'll just keep bumping into the same problems and not knowing how to fix them. All of us here are more than willing to help you out :hrmm:.

When I learnt programming, believe me, at times I wanted to quit, but I didn't, I persevered and it got me far.

Good luck!
Hope you do this, and I will download it :P.

Perhaps my knowledge of Manchester airport is naive, but the last shot posted appears to have some AFCAD issues with the holding bars and the taxiway lines. Still looking good :hrmm:
