For downloads starting 8/25/23: "Yellow Star" designation will now appear in the World Map for this airport. I was not aware of the designation's significance until I received feedback after the 2.0 release. No other changes have been made from the 2.0 update. If you would like this designation just re-download the file. Thanks again for the support!
**UPDATE** 8/21/23: Well that didn't take long! Here it is, Pokhara Domestic Airport V2 (final). Check out the Changelog (below) and Screenshots so you don't miss out on all the changes, fixes and additions made.
About the 8/21 update:
Along with 4 additional custom created buildings, several immersion improvements, fixes and reworks were made to bring Pokhara Airport closer to its real life self. For all the helicopter enjoyers, the real life heliport has now been added and can be selected. Thank you all again for the overwheming response on the initial release, I still can't believe it. I hope this update further enhances your experiance flying out of this airport. Namaste!
About the project:
It is my pleasure to introduce my second created airport, Nepal's own domestic airport in Pokhara (VNPK). I still cannot believe the overwhelming positive response to my first created airport Nepalgunj. Thank you so much for the kind words, downloads and support. It was you, the community that gave me the inspiration to create Pokhara Airport to share and I hope it meets your expectations. Pokhara Airport was a MASSIVE project to undertake to say the least! Check out the features section below and trailer! I hope that Pokhara Airport adds to your enjoyment and love of Nepal flying in MSFS. Namaste! :)

A special thanks to the following Youtubers for the excellent tutorials I used for help with MSFS SDK or Blender. I once again couldn't have created this scenery without your videos. Check them out:

Does this Domestic Airport still exsist and operate/ Or has it been replaced by VNPR which is the Int'l Airport?
Thanks

Do you know if there is a way to get rid of the conflict with "Pokhara/Muktinath/Annapurna region scenery" ?

Please give it the yellow star so that it's very clearly visible on the world map that it's a modded airport.
Thank you!
