Superb freeware scenery find
« on: March 20, 2007, 02:26:05 pm »
Are y'all ready for this? Whilst digging around for the best Alps mesh/scenery for FS2004 (I'm probably going to get the FSGenesis 11M mesh as that seems to be the overall most believable. Scenery is a problem though...) I came across a free Courcheval scenery pack that includes the sloping runway!

Perfect for those that haven't done the Alps Tour yet:

and just to add to the fun, here's all the other sloping French altiports:

Thanks Muzza,

I'm two legs away from the dreaded Courchevel landing on the Alps tour.

I was actually on the lookout for some working mesh and sceneries as I there is a big variety but I don't know which ones are working with which.
So I am always interested to hear what others have installed and is working for them.

Hi Daniel,

I flew around Courchevel the other day, with some aircraft, i could land but some it went through, the C172 is a good plane to use for the airport :)

the Cirrus SR22 can touchdown on the rwy if you put it down reeeaaaallllyyy smoothly and can touchdown without fail at the upper part of the rwy just before reaching the flat part of the rwy

argh, I had really big problems landing at Courcheval. Javier was there with me, and I think I had 5 attempts at landing on that dreaded runway. Bad memories, though I wish I had the scenery when I landed there!
