For further informations on the airport visit the site( http://www.bastia.aeroport.fr/)

Bastia Poretta is one of the two most important airports of Corsica with Ajaccio Campo Dell'Oro.

I tried to design the main passenger terminal as accurate as possible as well as Saint Exupery aéro-club( The famous French airman took off from Bastia for his last and tragical flight)and the tower with the meteo building. But I had to imagin the smaller details as I have never been to the airport myself and I didn't have much documents about it. Although, Ithink it might look like this.

You must install Thierry Pignot's mesh of Corsica. It is freeware and you will find it on his site(www.pacaflight.com).
You must also have installed Gerrish Gray's trees librairies(trees_v3). You can download it from SurClaro and avsim online.

Unzip and install as you usually do.
You can either create a new folder(Poretta for example) including the sub folders SCENERY and TEXTURE and activate through FS library or you can put all scenery files(.bgl) in FS2002/SCENERY and all texture files(.bmp, .r8) in FS2002/TEXTURE.
