    Info
    Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport is a medium-sized aerodrome found in Mpumalanga, South Africa. 
    Also referred to as KMI Airport, it is located in Mbombela (Nelspruit) which is the gateway to the world’s most iconic game reserve, the Kruger National Park, its third largest canyon the Blyde River Canyon, ancient caves and many scenic & heritage attractions in close proximity.

    Since commencing business operations in October 2002, KMI Airport has opened up the skies over Mbombela for over 3 Million passengers, affording new opportunities to the tourism and business industries of the province. 
    KMI Airport serves an average of 260,000 passengers per annum. This is an ICAO approved International Airport with a runway of 3.1km which can accommodate up to a Boeing 747 and Airbus series. The Airport also prides itself in being the holders of a Fire and Rescue Category 7 international aerodrome license, which is a first for the province.

    The terminal building, constructed as an African theme all under thatch has a total floor space of 7350 square meters, making this the largest thatch constructed Airport in the world, a true aviation masterpiece to be seen. The unique aesthetics and decor of the building blend in with the surrounding bushveld, which has become a favourite landmark among passengers visiting the beautiful province.

    Details

    Notes:
    - ILS only available from RWY 05
    - Runway lights: HIALS-1, with threshold and PAPI lights on left side.
    - When landing RWY 05, aircraft should backtrack the RWY to enter Apron area

    Author Notes
    - Took way too long to make this, but I think the end result is pretty good
    - For this version, there are still a few issues, but I'm looking at improving it later.
    - There might be something wonky with the ILS, it sometimes doesn't give me a localizer, need to test further and figure out what is wrong.

    Thanks for downloading the scenery!

    To everyone that might have downloaded the main file which was 0.9, it is now fixed, so if you download the 'Main File', it will be version 1.0. Apologies.

    Gorgeous rendition of Africa's largest thatched structure - Kruger Mpumalanga International. Wait for your flight in the Fever Tree Bar, enjoying a "Mother Land Coffee" - or stay for the night in the adjacent SleepOver accommodation, in case your flight departs in the early morning.

    From the photos you posted it looks like a very good job

    I downloaded the file version 1, unzipped and put it in the Community folder but it does not show up in the sim

    It is shown as not installed in the Content manager

    Any idea what the problem may be?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello! Sorry for the late reply. Without more info I would suggest you ensure that you've copied the 'skyy-airport-fakn-krugermpumalanga' folder inside the zip file, and placed that inside the community folder.

    I'm not sure where the fuel area is at FAKN, however, you can use ground services to call the fuel truck which will drive to your location and then pop up the fuel dialog for you.

    I see now that the 'main' file is set to the 0.9, and the new one is 1.0 but isn't main. I'm trying to figure out how to switch those on the site...
