SCENERY FILE FOR FRANKFURT/MAIN AREA Created by Dr. Christoph Schoeler CIS 100010,2712 August 1992 FRANKFURT / MAIN, GERMANY SCENERY FOR FS4 SIMULATOR AND AIRCRAFT & SCENERY DESIGNER. Version 1.0 This is the documentation for the scenery files: * FRA-1-WE.SC1 * FRA-1-WE.DY1 * FRA-1-WE.MOD * FRA-1-WE.TXT (this file) In order to use the scenery files you will need: * Flight Simulator 4 * Aircraft & Scenery Designer * European Scenery disk * (A detailed map covering Frankfurt area) * (Jeppesen Frankfurt/Main, Germany Area Chart) * (Jeppesen Frankfurt/Main, Germany Airport Chart) These scenery files contain: * Nav aids (All important VOR's and NDB's of Jeppesen Frankfurt/Main Area Chart) * detailed airport layout of Rhein-Main International Airport including U.S. Air Force Base * ILS, control towers, airport buildings, hangars, some dynamic scenery * Boats cruising on the river Main and other scenery objects crucial for aerial navigation will be added later. Airports and NAV aids are based on data from "Frankfurt/Main, Ger. Area" and "Airport" maps from Jeppesen. The size of FRA-1-WE.SC1 is about 5984 bytes and the size of FRA-1-WE.DY1 is about 9632 bytes. Due to mismatches of location/FS coordinates in the European scenery file, several attempts were necessary to achieve maximum accuracy. Using the default NAV aids and relative bearings for locating scenery spots appeared to be the most appropriate method and has therefor been applied throughout.
