Scenery Project Kölner Bucht
The Kölner Bucht (Cologne Bay) is a small region in Germany with a long aviational history. It is named after the city Köln (Cologne), which lies in its centre. The biggest airport is Konrad Adenauer Airport (EDDK), which is one of the 19 non-american Space Shuttle abort landing sites. But there also are smaller ones like Bonn-Hangelar Airport and historical ones like Butzweiler Hof.
Cologne City is the home of German Space Agency (DLR) among with the European Astronaut Centre of ESA, the EASA, the Headquarter of Lufthansa, the Horten Brothers developed there their planes - but in FlightGear Scenery, it has no more to offer than the standard generic scenery. This has to change!
Why this page?
The intention of this page is to organize, coordinate and document the progress of the scenery creation in that area and to encourage others to join in. This is a huge project, but hopefully it will procede with a steady pace. The goal is to see the same skyline as in reality!
Approach
Every item listed below will get its own wiki page. Any relevant information will be stored there. For some of them there already exist some untextured models (aka 'w.i.p.'). If interested, everybody can become a maintainer of items or help other maintainers. The progress shall be documented in this wiki.
Points of interest
The following tables list the points of interests in that region, among with a maintainer and a progress indication (for now: not started, wip, done). Roads, Tracks and Rivers aren't covered, they are expected to be included by next-genenration generic scenery (Source: OpenStreetMap).
