Liverpool John Lennon (Speke) Airport (EGGP) Ver 4.0 DerboSoft 2004 - uk.geocities.com/derbosoft
This all new version has been specifically created with the Default FS2004 scenery in mind. However, it is also aligned to the Visual Flight / getmapping VFR Scenery published by Just Flight.
Version 4.0 contains all new macros and textures including for the first time full night textures! Note however, the download no longer contains the additional landmark objects included with previous versions. These are still available however from the derbosoft website and from AVSIM.
This scenery forms part of the "UK2002 Scenery Project" co-ordinated by John Woodside - http://fsaviation.net/.
Thanks go to John Woodside and to Peter Leadbeater for the information they have supplied to me regarding the airport.
Special thanks also go to Dave Graham and the rest of the guys at North West Air News (www.nwan.co.uk) without whose photo's and information this new version just wouldn't exist!
