- 101005 – ollie 02/27/2024Various improvements to markings and lighting. Starter extensions (not displaced thresholds) manually created to enable accurate approach lighting and markings. Runway length and threshold positions otherwise accurate per CIFP (WED gives location warning). https://www.aip.net.nz/assets/AIP/Aerodrome-Charts/Queenstown-NZQN/NZQN_51.1_51.2.pdfApproved Recommended
- 100924 – ollie 02/21/2024General tidy-up including runway alignment, redundant exclusion zones, misc. validation warnings, line markings, taxiway and approach lighting.Approved
- 95413 – PL4 04/22/2023- Big taxiway area splitted into multiple segments. Solves twy-rwy intersection issue. Also looks more realistic since different segments headings where tuned to reflect the asphalt production process. - Some asphalt seames added. - Taxiroute naming C1 and C2 (was C).Approved
- 95045 – PL4 04/06/2023- RampStarts: number of airlines reduced to max of 3. - parking area east hidden (outside airport boundary) - vegetation: lib/g8 replaced by appropiate lib/vegetation. - some mowing traces in GA parking area.See comments
- 94552 – PL4 03/18/2023Removed traces of recent (not anymore existing) taxiway A2: - Sign for recent (removed) taxiway A2 removed. - Taxiway "Grass West" removed. - Helipad H4 removed. - Northwest cargo parking area expanded (sources ESRi and Google Maps). - Northwest ground routes modified. Seperate entry and exit from/to terminal building (sources ESRi and Google Maps). R2A Rampstart for Turboprops and Jets. More "blue passenger areas" on apron with plausible adjustment of security fences. Facade details at passenger north exits to apron.See comments
- 94499 – PL4 03/16/2023- set appropiate height of terminal facade - Ground routes revised to avoid trafic hitting the apron front of the terminal. - some ground texture headings adjusted to look more realistic. - runways, taxiways, patches / draped poligons: added seams and edges where appropiate. - Fuel truck destinations deleted where at same place as Parking. - ground gate marking and number painting revised, reducing complexity of markings. Source: Google Maps and ESRi. - white rwy markings added (source: Google Maps, ESRi and YT vids) - unconfirmed taxiways and (foot?) paths hidden - not in Jeppesen, seem to be abandoned.See comments
- 94012 – PL4 02/13/2023Ovrhd_Flood_Med.obj deletedSee comments
- 93849 – PL4 01/27/2023- some objects/facades/forest included into airport boundary due to reducing nodes of it. Other objects outside boundary hidden. - groups: "external parking west" and "external parking south". South has been cleaned up to match the sattelite image more closely. Both parking areas are close to RWY 32, so I'd consider they are not distant but can now be hidden individualy.See comments
- 93694 – PL4 01/12/2023remote objects "Five mile retail center" and forest hidden.See comments
- 93577 – PL4 01/04/2023- Airport boundary fixed "runway and taxiway not fully inside". - MSL issues changed to GND - RWY 05/23, 14/32 length and disp. thresholds slight adjustments acc. to Jeppesen 5-AUG-22. other changes according to Jepp. 5-AUG-22: - TWR,INFO Freq 128.9, Queenstown INFO 22.2 added - Taxiway adjustments/renaming, Size A for Acft < 5.7t - added taxiroute B1,B2 and taxiway B2 - added taxiroute and taxiway C4,C5 - segment of taxiroute C renamed to C3 - added taxiroute Y7 and B4 - RWY 14 inside fence - all Rampstarts changed to TieDown - Rampstart R1, R1A size B - Five mile retail center visual reference for RWY 14 approachSee comments
- 80874 – flyingpauls 11/02/2020Updated the airport to new gateway standards (I hope). Removed turn pads, stuff outside the airport area, fixed frequencies and flows, added left and right PAPI as to RL and some tiny fixes.Approved
- 66914 – ronb62 03/17/2019full reworkApproved
- 64393 – jimrooney 11/26/2018TXWY Bravo is grass between the apron curve and B1. TXWY Charlie does not exist (currently) between the beginning of RNWY14 and 23. Excellent model otherwise (this is my home airport)See comments
