Mayday!
OTHH does not exist in FlightGear (???!!!)
I'll have to fly into OTBD. Is that OK?

And Colombo Bandrinake is broken in TerraSync... grass covers runway

Could use some love.

I had a lovely landing... my best manual approach and landing ever on the bus!
Came in manually, on the glideslope, flared properly, touched firmly but not thumping, nor floating.

Good Job
I see what you mean about this airport.
As you know this is a community driven effort. If you want a better OTBD, the only guarantee to have it done is that you roll your overalls sleeve, get you builder attitude, open WED, and get it done. Once that's finish, submit to the Gateway.

Otherwise, we'll need to wait till someone in the community (here or Xplane) cares to love the same airport. This could mean years of a wait.

Hi Lego
viewtopic.php?f=26&t=182
I created this thread as a good place to 1) vent steam about this, 2) make a "database" or airports seriously needing some love, and 3) maybe attract WED developers to gain interests in airports we also care about.

Best,

In fact, Doha Intl is closed.... that is, would it not be better to make OTHH available, instead of OTBD being made better?
Great idea for killing time on those longhauls!
I'll start with Hamad and then maybe do Doha and Colombo....

There, that's my simbrief done, charts downloaded, NOTAMS reviewed... off to bed, then tomorrow I will start Quatari 5344 to Istanbul early

Speedbird 769 departing LTBA for EGLL
Yes, my MP callsign is BAW5344...

I guess Speedbird ran out of planes:
They are using an Easyjet A320 today.

LTBA is next on my 'make list', assuming noone did it and it is not waiting for next TerraSync generation.
