HDAM & HDCH - Djibouti - v1.0
This scenery was originally created for FS by Alexandre Remy, who was kind enough to allow me to convert and distribute his scenery packages for X-Plane.
You can have a look at Alex's website and thank him for his scene here :

PLEASE NOTE:
This package depends on the OpenSceneryX package. It will work without but you will miss a lot of objects.
If you do not have OpenSceneryX installed yet, please grab the handy installer for MAc, Windows or Linux here:

Comments are always welcome, they help me improving the scenery packages you can find here.
Have Fun !

Exceptionally, this package consists of two folders to be placed in your Custom Scenery folder, i did not have time to find out how to fuse two packages into one.

Another hit becomes part of our list: Marocco & Western Sahara is an amazing scenery.
It adds over 40 airports, and ranges from Marocco to Mauritania.
This Scenery has been made by Alain Laurent (Al-Youx) who was kind enough to let us list it here in order to cover the map a little bit more :)
have fun !
Merry X-Mas in March :) , Jens Ansorg kindly allowed me to post direct links to the download pages of his South African scenery packs on x-plane.org .

This allows me to fill the map of Africa a little bit more with the following airports:
FAJS - Johannesburg International
FAKN - Mpumalanga International
FAGM - Rand
FAVG - Virginia
FADK - Klerksdorp & FALY - Ladysmith double pack

Hello there,
Just a short post to introduce XP-Africa.
My goal here will be to provide quality scenery creations and conversions from FS packages for the region of Africa. X-Plane doesn't have so much scenes for Africa yet, so i hope you'll like our work. This project is supposed to serve the X-Plane community and i'd love it to become a true community project. I'm also happy to connect the FS and X-Plane communities a bit more by starting this collaboration with Frédéric Kabalu who's scenes will all be converted, including the future releases he's curently preparing for FS.
We'll start in this month of March 2008 with the sceneries for Dakar GOOY and Banjul GBYD in their first beta version. Both are pretty much finished for the airports part but i promised myself to have the city of Dakar around the airport ready for GOOY v1.0.
In addition we will also have the scenes for the Gabun Airports, hopefully coming before end of the month.
I would like to thank Frederic Kabalu and Jean Charbonnel, creators of some beautiful Africa sceneries for FS, for their support in converting their scenery packages. I'd also like to thank Daniel Leygnat and the whole XPFR crew for their continuous support and giving me the motivation to make XP-Africa.
If anyone has interrest in participating to the project, contributing to scenery development or testing the realeases, please feel free to contact me as any helping hand is always welcome.
Furthermore, your opinion and comments about theses releases being one of my primary source of inspiration, you're warmly welcome to post them here.
