Grantley Adams International (TBPB) for FSX

A couple of shots from the FSX conversion I am doing.  Ground polys went down ok with only minimal tweaking to the FSX default terrain. The FSX version has a much more dramatic drop off the end of Runway 09 into the ocean, as seen in real life. Hopefully time will permit me to convert the rest soon.

Thanks yeah It took me a few attempts to move off FS9, it's a great sim. In the end I bought the LevelD which performs great in FSX, allowing me to do some proper flying time and getting to love it.

Thanks Mr. S, The buildings & 3D models are maybe 50% converted now to FSX compatible materials. The transparent parts need re-working to display in FSX correctly. Trees are always a big problem.

Working my way through it. I might ask you to evaluate a test copy for me when it's ready.
