FlightGear NL is the name under which scenery is being developed for the Netherlands.
The Netherlands are a country in the northwest of Europe, and has nearly 17 million inhabitants. It used to be one of the very richest country's back in the 18th century, due to the booming business of the VOC. In FlightGear it is far from attractive, since there is literally no scenery to look at. Well, except some (faulty) land usage data and a couple of runways and taxiways. That's pretty much it. We can't stand that and thus we do something about it by means of modelling buildings, bridges, enhancing the airports etc. In other words: make our country worthy of a virtual visit :-).
Volunteer
Please feel free to help us, it is definitely appreciated! Our todo list:
- Model buildings.
- Collect data about buildings, airports, bridges etc.
- Place the models in the scenery.
- Enhance the scenery (by for instance adding rivers, roads, railways etc.) so we can place the buildings correctly, and to make VFR flights a pleasure.
- And last but not least: test-fly the new scenery!
If you're interested, please visit the discussion page.
Thank you
