I’ve been to this airfield IRL haha
Straight outta Compton (Abbas)
If you install this and Thurrock together you get pink fences. BurningBlue must not expect anyone to pay for multiple of their airports.
I worked around it renaming the folder to “bxrningbluedesign-airport-egha” to force it to load last.
Some pink textures for me
Not sure if its just me but this scenerey does not load. the progress bar goes to the end and it freezes there. Nothing else in Community folder. Others working fine – not sure whats the problem.
