I have just been sitting here staring at the screen wondering what area to attack now. I have just about covered all the small to non existent strips up North where all the nice mountains and snow are. But now I need a different area. I was starting on Montana and actually have some scenery done for some small strips around there. Everybody seems to be working on a favorite area. But I am at a loss here Good grief I hate gridlock rant over.....

Banditt, try this site for some great old abandoned, but nice old airfields with a few photos, and drawings for Ohio. I used to live there, and it would be great to see these fields come back to life. Thanks, John Skokan www.airfields-freeman.com/

If someone could build an airport around Parsons, Kansas, (like Tri-city, KPPF), I think that would be neat. I live in parsons, and it is in southeast kansas.

A few years ago I spent some time in Hutchinson Kansas, It has a great Airport , it is only 216 miles south of the US Mail run we have done. I will be working on it as soon as we get the rest of the scenery's posted, which should be by the end of the week I would think. I have to put some pen to paper to help with the readme for them. Does anyone have any Idea how to write a readme for 20 scenery's? help

TO: willyb; I used to write documents for my uploads for FS2002. One upload (Texas) had over 80 airports in it. I always wrote a readme.txt that only contained a short (one paragraph) description of the upload. I then include a Word document that had a longer description and anything unusual about the airports. I then included a spreadsheet that listed each airport, the town and state, the NDB frequency, lat-lon info, and altitude. I included another document explaining how to load into the flightsim. This zip file included four folders; Documents, Scenery, Textures, and Static Textures (I often changed static textures in different areas). Yours don't have to be as extensive as that, but I explained everything I could like the pilot was a newbie and had never downloaded scenery before. It prevented a lot of emails asking questions. Just a thought. Del.

Thanks Del I have got it all figued out!!!!! My trusty sidekick is looking after it "Snowman" is the greatest at making it simple, for me as well as all the newb's. They would more than likely be confused at my explanation of how it should be done. So I leave it to "The Man"------ Snow that is!
