Land's End is my second favouritest airport before St Marys on the Isles of Scilly and rather handily that's pretty much the only place it flies to. A geezer who works there told me that almost every single person passing through is overjoyed to be there and you can't really say that of most airports.
Why should you as a discerning flyingist choose this over the Asobo version? I dunno.
Main differences are -
New taxi system with parking space 5 starting off inside an open hangar.
This version retains runway 25's sloping gradient.
A juicier terminal overall with plenty of opportunity for snacking.
More effort put into the areas around the approaches with frighteningly realistic additions such as a coach about to block the single track road it's on.
The Asobo one does a better job with the ground markings, a much better job with the apron textures and some of the surrounding buildings and does a fine job elsewhere too.
Large up to Skell300 https://flightsim.to/profile/skell300 for doing a brilliant rendition of the service building next to the terminal.
I will leave you to explore and discover the other additions for yourself, there are plenty of them. What type of maniac would download a mod without surprises?
To take this much further would basically involve my paying for your taxi fare to the real place so you can run up and down the runways with your arms outstretched before you're forcefully removed. As of right now I'm too mean for that.
V 2.4
This is considerably smaller than the previous versions having had a lot of crud cut out of it so I suggest you completely delete the old version.
Adds opening door for the improved GSX Pro proflie by ElevateSolutions available here - https://flightsim.to/file/41377/gsx-profile-for-eghc-lands-end-st-just-airport-by-superspud-freeware so make sure you have the updated version of that too.
Improves some ground details and texturing with the buildings.
Adds a helipad.
Tweaks a few other details here and there.
A version of the Longships lighthouse just out to sea is included with the scenery file in here https://flightsim.to/file/3615/eghe-st-mary-s-airport-isles-of-scilly-uk-upgrade
Great work as always

Not sure what's happened but I've not flown over here since the last update of the scenery, but I did a flight from St Mary's and noticed this issue when flying towards/over Lands end - if I delete your mod it looks fine (albeit with a terrible rendition of St Just as I have also removed the Asobo version as well).

Whilst typing this, I remembered that I had an older version from when I had to back up my community folder, due to needing to re-install windows, and that version works fine (I couldn't tell you which version it is - maybe 2.3 as it seems I backed up in May 2023).

Got heavy stuttering (framerate drops every few seconds) since last updated (latest MSFS Update, animated people updated MAy23 and your latest update). Use it with animated people. When using MS Version, everythink is ok, but your scenery looks much better. What can I do, do anyone observe the same? 17.May23

Hmm. Not sure. The existing people are unchanged post update apart from randomising when the animation starts and the airport itself had very little added.
You could try deleting the Scenarii folder in the package which has a couple of horses and a tractor moving around but I can't imagine they'd change the behaviour all that much.

Great airport.
Works perfectly, looks great
and is a great upgrade for the MSFS.
I particularly like the many small details.
It is compatible with SU11,
thanks for that

Love the update Superspud. Loved your original too. Cornwall and the Scillys is my favourite place to fly and I have all your creations in my community folder. Another 5 stars.
Are you planning any more updates for the Channel Islands?
2 years ago
Yes. I'd like to do Jersey airport properly and more work to the other airports. Not sure when though.

Thanks for the fixes. To think....I never deleted the Asobo version and everything was fine for the last two years. I deleted it today and its still great.
Great work, as usual!

As per Dunkeswell, I think SU9 may have done something horrid to this one's ground. I will need to triple check content manager though.

I was there last night and it seemed fine enough to me. It is lumpier than it should be due to the impossibility of terraforming precisely, but no lumpier than it was before.
I'll try to do something about that again soon.

Great little scenery! I flew out of Land's End back in October with Skybus; this is a top, faithful recreation of the aerodrome and a great spot to fly the recently released Aerosoft Twotter in and out of. Definitely worth a download!
2 years ago
This is of course the first place I took a Twotter. And I couldn't start it.
I also think I need to deal with a few unseen bumps even if that adds to the drama.
I spent much, much longer here than I was planning a few times last year hence the extra detail. Good old fog.

Hi, I may have broken one of your restrictions for this scenery, but I'll let you be the judge.
I've just posted an answer to a question on Quora, and in looking for a couple of pictures to represent what I think is the best of 3rd Party Developers that we have, I've posted two (slightly "normalized" - you'll see what I mean) pictures of this scenery on line. You can find it at https://www.quora.com/How-Microsoft-flight-simulator-was-made/answer/John-Glossop-1?prompt_topic_bio=1 and if you don't like what I've done, then I'll remove your images forthwith.

This scenery has restrictions? Not sure I've never bothered to check them.
As soon as it leaves my hard drive I don't really care what anyone else does with it, but I would be unimpressed if someone else charged £500 for it, and even less impressed with anyone who paid it.
The only thing I can't do is allow the paid 3d models, and there are a few in there, to be used elsewhere. That's in their conditions of sale.

With the V2.1, I cannot use the MarketPlace or the Content Manager... I am very disapointed to not use this beautifull scene !

Do you have the same problem with the old version? This airport has always caused problems for a few people. I've never discovered why.

Hi ... great modelling skills ... thank you 😊
I just loaded v.2.1 without deleting the Asobo version from Content Manager and the hanger doors are open.
Cheers

Agreed. I'd prefer it if the modelling skills were mine, but they're not.
I am now dead confused about the original airport deletion. It seems to be happening for some, but not for others. It's still a waste of 360mb to keep one or t'other so I might as well leave the advisory up.
