Coal Aston Airfield

TheGarner

Coal Aston Airfield is located in Derbyshire (United Kingdom). This freeware airfield is for Microsoft Flight Simulator.

Use the ICAO code EGCA to locate the airport within Flight Simulator.

Important Note: As of 27/08/2020 there is an error within the simulator that makes this airfield have two ICAO codes. According to wikipedia the correct ICAO code is: EGCA but EGDF will also allow you to spawn at this field. Due to this, I have included 2x ZIP files, as I had a problem with airport vehicles spawning when using the correct ICAO when building the package. Putting both inside your "Community" folder will make sure the airport vehicles do not spawn as they did not fit in with the type of airfield this is.

Features
I took a bit of a creative licence with this airfield and added features that may not be there in real life but makes the airfield feel a bit alive but tried to keep it realistic.

Runways added including number markings (The numbers do not exist in real life but thought it would make it easier to identify)
Multiple GA parking spots
Multiple static aircraft
Multiple static objects such as buildings, cars, fences and more.
2x Light posts added around main hangar building, 2x Street lamps next to road
Windsocks

TheGarner loving these strips, could I suggest my local airfield at hardwick to you as another that is sadly missing from this wonderful sim .

(52.4659303, 1.3266048) Is the hangar for hardwick grass 800m grass strip already somewhat depicted in sim and (52.4636741, 1.3175064) the hangar at the ‘hard’ designated airfield. With two runways one concrete runway (52.4642140, 1.3101133) and one grass (52.4663823, 1.3150619). As of current this area is just a very strange camo texture. I hope this helps. Thanks for your time.
