VHHX - Old Hong kong International

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

I discovered that I had the freeware 9Dragons scenery of VHHX (the old Hong Kong International) for FS2004. It was out of date, so I downloaded the latest version from flightsim.com and installed it. here's a dawn screenshot of the famous red & black chequerboard as this B757-200 of Continental lines up for the sharp turn to land:

Unfortunately, I found out too late that this scenery disables the 'new' VHHH, which no longer shows in FS2004. It wouldn't matter, except that it screws up UT for FS2004, because traffic can no longer find VHHH. The only solution was to reassign all traffic to VHHX, which I've done. So now all traffic goes to the 'old' Hong Kong International.

	Hi David, nice shot! I hereby offer a variation on this theme, with Fly Tampa's Kai Tak scenery in FSX, with UT2 (sorry for posting in the 'classic' forum). And, thank you for the AI files! Jeroen

	That's a great shot. The FlyTampa scenery is better than the freeware 9dragons, which is for FS2004 only. Also, looking at my screenshot, there are some missing textures.
