TNCM - Princess Juliana, St. Maarten, Netherlands Antilles (FlyTampa)

This is part of the launch round of Afcads issued by Alpha India Group. AIG Ground aims to create high quality Afcads for both FS2004 and for FSX default and add on scenery airports. Our Afcads are created drawing on a number of resources and aim to simulate the real world airport as closely as possible but also to take account of FS constraints and ensure good levels of traffic and realistic traffic parking and flow around the airport.

Main Changes:

1. Please keep in mind, FlyTampa's scenery was obsolete when it was released. The old terminal has been torn down now, and more ramp space has been built in its space. Obviously, I remained true to the scenery.

2. All taxiways and gates re-aligned so that aircraft follow the centerline without "pinching" turns, as well as park within the aloted space without penetrating the terminal or surrounding scenery.

3. Lots of General Aviation parking spots added to handle all the business jet traffic seen on weekends.

4. I've turned the ramp space just to the west of the "C" taxiway into overflow GA parking. Out of all the types that operate to TNCM, Gulfstreams are the only ones which overwhelm the airport, especially on the weekends. Now, you will see mostly corporate jets in this ramp, with the ocasional airliner, as in real life. The layout is not completely accurate, but it is a layout that allows the most aircraft to park without colliding.
