Very pleased to be able to offer a remake of an original addon, one of my first for FSX in 2014. All that remains of the original airport addon is the tower, the rest has been extensively revamped to leverage all the best features of MSFS. For example, the original airport needed approaches added to complete it, MSFS automatically includes the HELENS6 approach, as well as a few alternatives. So I tried to add and improve, not just change.
Amazon PDX9 Fulfillment Center, just the other side of NW Graham Rd, is the largest warehouse in the Portland metroplex and an obvious visual reference that was completely ignored by both default photogrammetry and Asobo, so it had to be added.Elsewhere,one of the hangars has an opening door, it is triggered by setting yoke visibility to hidden, there is a section in the preview video showing this procedure.
To use the scenery, place the folder rk-airport-kttd in the Community folder. To start in the animated hangar, select military 1 parking. AI planes do not spawn on military parking places, unless they are also military, but in practice is is seen the AI vehicles do not hesitate to drive through the doors to park there. Without the AI vehicles, there would be no fuelers or animated pushback, both of which are available at this airport.
ALERT: A POSSIBLE ISSUE HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AT MYNN AIRPORT. IF YOU ENCOUNTER PROBLEMS:
Navigate to C:\Packages\Community\rk-airport-kttd\scenery\kttd and delete the file "objects.bgl."

Hello, can you please confirm this airport doesn't make any changes to MYNN Nassau Lynden Pindling? This scenery appears as a mod for that airport when searching for addon sceneries on my addon managers.

This airport has no relation to Nassau.

A much needed improvement. When I first landed at KTTD the runway lights were a hundred feet in the air! I found your addon and now it's all good. Thank you!

So I'd grabbed this a while back but hadn't flown in until an FSEconomy flight took me into the Portland area. Wow! This is absolutely beautiful work! The buildings, the "aliveness" of the airport, the great mix of static aircraft models. Really nicely done! Thanks for sharing this with the community!

This was my home base for a long time, and depending on which row that movable hanger is on, mine might be the one directly to the right of it! Can't wait to try it out and report back with what I hope is 5 full stars!

The opening door hangar can be found by starting at the Mil 1 parking, or by locating the Rutan Quickie, at the extreme north east end of the tarmac. Thanks for visiting!

The hangar door is buttery smooth now! Question, is it possible in the sim to synchronize objects with other online players that have the same scenery? Example, my friend and I can both open the hangar door but the change doesn't show on the others scenery. I'm not sure if Trent Palmer's hangar door syncs on Multiplayer or not either...A feature like that could really open up the door for content creation. No pun intended.

MSFS is not a server based game like Star Citizen or Second Life. Granted MSFS has online servers that correlate position for group flights, but this server system will not even show the actual planes being virtually flown, unless the viewer possesses a copy of that plane in his Community folder.
The MSFS server system does not support that level of data exchange.

Simply Amazing Quality! Love all the extras. The animated hangar is something I been looking to do but with not much success. The Blender Export doesn't like me very well. Still trying to get the models out. Your quality is truly payware!!!

Love the work! I have tried EVERYTHING to get the hangar door to work. 7 Planes later I even edited your script from yoke to nav lights and tried an A variable and it still doesn't work for me. Also, FYI...many payware aircraft have their own yoke_hidden Lvars so I would recommend using taxi, nav, land...things common to more aircraft than yoke seems to be. I hope we can get this sorted out because it would be very cool to have this feature working!

Thank you for raising this issue. I can tell you how to enable the doors, the fix requires that you are able to use the tool, "MSFS Layout Generator" to complete the work. The problem is that when I consolidated the various sub packages of the project, I inadvertently placed the SimObjects" folder within the "Scenery" folder, while it should reside alongside Scenery at the same level.
Once this folder is moved to the proper location, it's position will no longer match the contents of the "Layout.JSON" file and MSFS will reject the changes. The tool MSFS Layout Generator will scan the directory and rewrite the JSON file to match, one could perform the same procedure manually and doing this will also enable the true to wind windsock.
If you wanted to wait, I'll upload a fixed version that also includes a missing section of the interior door jamb that I'd never noticed in all my testing.
As to door triggers, I prefer to focus on the aspects of flight simulation in which Asobo and MSFS excel, which are mostly visceral and as someone who considers themself somewhat cerebral, that is challenging enough.
I think a really great way to trigger the door animation is to the edit out the "yoke visibility" trigger and add a proximity trigger instead, or just edit one's favorite plane to have a yoke visibility switch for the sole purpose of opening the door.

First airport I ever flew a plane out of. Gorge Winds Aviation building looks good, ramp looks good. Thank you much.

Oh wow! Thank you! I wanted this since this sim was released and finally someone has started this. I even requested this.
I mean, it even has the fence and the warehouses.
If you need pictures, let me know. I live near here.
How do I open that hangar again? I watched the video but it didn't work for me.

Thanks! You have to use a plane that has a joystick that can be hidden. In the cockpit view, hold the mouse cursor near the base, or stem of the joystick/yoke and a message should appear that offers to hide the yoke if you click.

AWESOME!! Thank you! Any chance you can do HIO?

You know, that is on my list, but it is a big field and Asobo has weird things there like windsocks on the runways and dirt taxiways, plus nothing in relation to Nike hangar, or whatever that has become. I really feel like Salem with the Garmin factory is more my speed.
If you can't tell by the FBO hangar, I get kind of swallowed in the details. It's even got a job board, right underneath the mandatory Oregon workers rights posters.
