Project Hong Kong is aimed to improve the Hong Kong scenery in FlightGear.

Forum development thread: http://forum.flightgear.org/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=24508&start=45#p238855

Current status (May 2015)

  • built custom scenery, using landcover provided by statto and Martin
  • "fixed" airport layout -- had to remove a taxiway because I couldn't create an airport with holes in it.
  • add OSM forest/parks (some prominent ones are still missing)
  • add osm2city buildings and roads
  • add curved approach lights, based on OT-666's LOWI approach lights

Airports we are planning to work on

  • VHHH
  • VHXX
  • VHSK

Hong Kong terrain improvements

We also will fix the FG terrain in Hong Kong to be close as possible to Real Hong Kong
