Wisconsin, USA
I present to you General Mitchell International Airport!!! This is the
most realistic version of this airport available for X-Plane. To make
this I completely deleted and redrew many of the taxiway fresh from
scratch using satellite imagery. I have spent about 7 months working on
this bit by bit over some weekends.
General Mitchell International Airport serves
the largest city in Wisconsin, Milwaukee. The airport is the busiest airport in Wisconsin, with about 6.75 million passengers in 2016. It is commonly described as Chicago's third airport, as many travelers in the suburbs north of Chicago use it instead of Chicago's O'Hare and Midway airports
The terminal has 48 gates across 3 concourses. There are currently 10 airlines with service at MKE; Air Canada, Alaska, American, Apple Vacations Operated by Norwegian, Delta, Frontier, OneJet, Southwest, United, and Volaris. Allegiant Air will begin flights out of the airport starting in November 2017. Currently, only concourses C and D are open at this airport. Concourse E was shut down in May 2017 for a remodel which will add US Customs and Border Protection processing facilities replacing the IAB just north of the terminal.
The airport is also the home of the 128th Air Refueling Wing, part of the Wisconsin Air National Guard which operates KC-135 refueler aircraft out of the airport.
The gates in this version of the airport are modeled as such.... I did
not model the Alligaint gates as they only added to the airport website
list the day I published it.
In this scenery pack, I took the default 3D objects and layout and added and adjusted things; like I always do On top of that I took advantage of the wonderful new X-Plane 10.50 features (the only sad news to this is that this is only compatible with XP 10.50 and higher). I added the new ramp starts introduced in XP 10.50 where X-Plane will automatically spawn static aircraft at gates if you have that setting on. With MKE I even took this a step further and put the airline codes in that use the gate so you should see the right airlines using the right gates. This airport is compatible with X-Plane 11 and 10.
