Excellent!
All of his sceneries are very high quality, and it looks like I'll be doing a lot of flying in Hawaii in the near future!
Just installed PT 3 and this guy really made some outstanding professional scenery. I too, will be enjoying flying in the beauty of the Hawaiian Islands.
I went on a mission last night and installed parts 1 & 2, along with the plus version of the photoreal islands from Hawaii Photoreal, Kauai by Ironhand, plus the buildings and trees for Maui & Molokai from avsim. So I was pretty pleased last night to see this post about this new pack of airports!
It's worth noting that this pack includes an elevation fix for PHBK Barking Sands, as well as some autogen trees for the Big Island and Kauai. Had an elevation issue at PHUP on the new pack though.
The combination of these amazingly good airport packs, great photoreal and autogen... I'm seriously in tropical flying bliss right now!!
Many thanks to George for creating these great airports!

Hawaiian Airports #3 is nice however, when I was flying off shore at Upopu PHUP I did notice a little elevation of where the surf meets the shore line. Water flows up to shore.
#3 is terrific! I hope there will be a #4!! (and a 5, 6, 7, etc!!) THANK YOU, George!! Nice work!!

Agreed that 3 is terrific, but not sure what would be encompassed by four more editions other than Wheeler and Bradshaw AAF.
If you consider Mr. Keogh's three packages, FSDreamteam's Hawaii series, and Aerosoft's Dillingham, we have extremely detailed custom airport scenery for the following airports:
- Princeville
- Port Allen
- Barking Sands
- Lihue
- Kalaeloa/Barbers Point
- Ford Island
- Dillingham
- Kaneohe
- Honolulu
- Molokai
- Kaluapapa
- Kapalua-West Maui
- Kahului
- Hana
- Lanai
- Upolu
- Waimea-Kohala
- Kona-Keahole
- Hilo
Wow....all that's missing are the two AAFs, and potentially a few ranch strips which may not even exist anymore.
Which one of those three scenery's is the PHNL Honolulu in?
George Keogh's airports & some freeware photoreal scenery...
HI01 Princeville, Kauai:
JHM Kapalua West, Maui:
PHMU Waimea, Big Island:
PAK Port Allen, Kauai:
With Hawaii Photoreal by Javier Trinidad, Kauai by Ironhand. Also with Alabeo Robinson R66, Cantu Embraer 120, ISDT Beechcraft 200, and default Caravan.
PHUP Upolu, Big Island.
Upolu shore line looks mostly ok to me, with or without mesh...
I wish I could darken the ocean... This coral reef blue is ridiculous here (default FSX tropical water)...
Is there a tweak (I use DX10 and Steve's fixer) or alternate dark water texture?
PHBK Barking Sands, Kauai, with Wozza's Texan:
Vonstroheim,
Try the FS Water Configurator...

I'd love to see a nice PHNL Freeware scenery for FSX/P3D plus KLAS.

i Miss a good Wheeler AAF (PHHI), there is nothing on the Net 😞
Some nice pics there!
My issues with PHUP isn't to do with the shoreline, it's that there's an elevation issue on the airport itself, much like PHBK had before the fix (which was nicely included in this pack!).
Jim Stewart
Same abnormality here... but you can say to yourself that it's the waves crashing on the cliff in very slow motion, and live with it...
A better mesh could help, or an evevation fix maybe...
Too bad, the FS Water Configurator is not DX10 compatible. Yet. FSWC Lite is DX10 compatible, but there is no control over water darkness.
I'm playing a bit with Steve's DX10 fixer, and it seems to work somewhat...
Default FSX water with DX10 on:
With some tweaks in the water shader interface: sky reflexion max 20% sky reflexion min 15% ambiant light 75%
Scenery: Bellows AFB (abandoned) from MegaSceneryX Hawaii (Honolulu and the island of Oahu)
The new version of FS Water Configurator is compatible with DirectX 10 and does let you control both the saturation and brightness, among other new adjustments.
Awesome work again, I'm on my way to Hawaii, currently at Cook Islands slowly moving my way across. With these three packs i'll have to stay exploring for a good while!
cheers,
Lewis

Hi,
Extremely nice scenery (plus)!
I installed to a strictly default Acceleration and encountered several problems however.
I created individual folders for each of the three airport packs and had errors when extracting the following files to the appropriate locations:
passenger2.dds
PHMK_Apron_2.dds
Photo_PHJR_2Apron.bgl
3Photo_PAK_west.bgl
Photo_PHMU1.bgl
Photo_HI01_1.bgl
This is a typical error indication.
I have both Gold and the Steam versions installed and had the same problems with each. If anyone has these files successfully installed please let me know. I may have problems with the zip files I downloaded.
Thanks, Jim F.
