Tin City AFS was a continental defence radar station constructed to provide the United States Air Force early warning of an attack by the Soviet Union on Alaska. It was one of the ten original radar surveillance sites constructed during the early 1950s to establish a permanent air defense system in Alaska. The radar site was connected to the base station by a 7,200' aerial tramway. All large equipment was required to be disassembled then re-assembled at the top camp radar station. The tramway cables were constantly breaking because of high winds and ice, and fog and the extreme cold made repairs hazardous. Ice 16 inches thick built up on the cables in winter.
-I’ve added back some of the military infrastructure and buildings that were there during the Cold War.
-Many thanks to the creators of the Required and Recommended libraries.
-In addition, you should have the free EDLP Paderborn airport, and the free UK2000 Common Library installed in order to view everything.
-Did I mention that they are free to download from the sim Marketplace as well as World Updates 1 - 15.
-Remember that downloading a dependency library is a one time process! Once you have them on your local PC, you never have to download it again.
-Easter Egg is hidden.
Installation:
Copy the tn-airport-patc-tin-city folder inside of the WinZip file into your MSFS Community folder.

Thanks Doc,
I was able to work around that problem and get my parking spots operational again. Whoever made that change to the SDK does not work with bush strips and small GA airports which don't require taxiways or a hold short. All is good.

Hi. Thank you for creating this airfield. I made UHML on the other side of the bering strait, its only 76nm away 😊
Could you please check your runway alignment? In my little navmap it looks like the runway numbers are turned by 180 degrees.

Thanks for pointing that out.
It's an easy fix but SU7 messed up the SDK. Every airport I built with parking spots can no longer be saved. Hard error "Parking not linked to the main graph".
I'm not editing any airports for fear of corrupting them.
SU8 should fix this.
