Julia Creek Airport is a small public airport serving the rural town of Julia Creek, Queensland. It sits about 2km SW of the town, and 140km East of Mount Isa. The airport is served by Regional Express with regularly scheduled flights to Hughenden, Mount Isa, Richmond, and Townsville. Private charters, state government flights, and both regular clinic and emergency medical flights also use the airport regualrly.
The main focus with this scenery was to remove the automatically generated buildings from the apron and update the scenery, as a lot of work has been done since the satellite imagery was taken. This scenery uses all stock assets, you don't need to download anything else for it to work.
Version 1.1:
- Added star to world map
- Removed plane flying pattern in the satellite imagery
- Minor scenery fixes
Version 1.0:
- Improved the runway turnarounds and material
- Removed random buildings from the apron
- Updated the apron to its new shape with the extension on the south east corner
- Added new windsock locations at each end of the runway, and removed the autogen windsock
- Added gabels and cones
- Added blue taxiway lighting
- Improved painted lines on apron and runway
- Fixed stand locations
- Removed blurry autogen road
- Removed airport service vehicles
- Added NDB masts and equipment NW of the apron
- Improved general airport scenery
- Removed trees from roads and railway
- Misc. scenery and vegetation fixes/additions
Known Issues:
- Runway light in the taxiway (may sometimes appear correctly embedded in the taxiway)
- No perimeter fence (won't happen until Asobo develops a fence tool)
- Minor ground texture issues
If I've overlooked anything or you have any suggestions, please leave a comment.
Thanks, and enjoy!
Just flew into Julia Creek from Cloncurry with the Airbus H145 at night.
My first time at this aiport with the enhanced scenery and it looks great! HOwever, just one issue that may be SU7 related, being the main terminal building is brilliant white all over. I suspect there may be a small texture issue.
Otherwise, it's a great addition to the "Outback" of western Queensland where I like to fly a fair bit. (My family were cattle station owners around Pentland!)

Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the heads up about the texture issue, it's apparently one of many from the last update. I've submitted a ticket to hopefully get it fixed. I'll provide an update when it's available.
