FS2000 Duxford Airfield and the Imperial War Museum
This scenery is an upgrade to the default airfield adding grass runway and taxiway with holdpoints and signs and the control tower.
Also included is detailed scenery for the Imperial War Museum which is sited on the airfield.
Duxford is a former RAF base, best remembered for its part in the Second World War, which is now a fully operational airfield, home of popular annual airshows and houses a branch of the Imperial War Museum with it's vast range of exhibits, many of which are outdoors.
For a full history of the airfield see the official web page.

INSTALLATION
Unzip the file DUX2000.zip directly into the directory where you place your add-on scenery and a new folder named Duxford will be installed with the relevant sub folders for Scenery and Textures in place.
Add the new scenery through the scenery library and you are ready to go!
Scenery Density
A setting of very dense is required to see all the scenery. Anything less will not show the museum exhibits but most of the other scenery. If frame rates are poor, an improvement may be gained by removing the scenery file barriers.bgl.
This scenery was made using Architect 2002 and Airport for Windows 2.90 beta version, objects were created with Nova
