Tocumen International Airport (MPTO) v1.0
Yet another airport being made on request, but this is the biggest airport project by me in this moment. It is an important and busy hub for flights among Central America. You need to have USA Update to be installed as a prerequisite.
Limitations:
There is no published instrument procedure for taking off from 21L/21R, and I don’t know what it would be in real case
There is no published STAR paths towards “TUM” VOR, so the instrument approaches that utilise it are not implemented, and then the VOR approach for 21L is not implemented, even when there is no other published instrument approach for it
Although there are RNAV(RNP) procedures for departures and approaches(3R/21R), I’ve only implemented RNAV(GNSS) procedures for them as the support for RNAV approaches in the game is still quite buggy, and there have been alternate instrument procedures.
There has been an autogen terminal building in the game, and I just use it directly. However, the autogen terminal building doesn’t fit the actual gate positions very well, the position of the gates have been adjusted, and some of them has been skipped.
Only a few of the gate numbers for Terminal 2 are documented, so the others are just by guess.
Taxiway signs are not being made, so just turn on taxi ribbons in case you need.
Known Issues:
ATC will only assign visual approaches, even if you have selected STAR and instrument approaches in flight planner, and you will be asked to report runway in sight during approach.
ATC may ask to to land on the other runway during approach
ATC don’t know which taxiways should be assigned for leaving some of the gates to the runway, and just tell you to taxi using taxiway.
The only ILS localizer (3R) can be considered accurate, but aircrafts failed to align with the runway precisely using autopilot.
Althought I think making an international airport with handcrafted terminals and a lot of details is the business of those payware developers, collaborations are welcomed if you would like to do so.
