    VABB Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport (BOM) - Image 2

    Description

    Welcome eveyone to the first vabb airport of msfs. Myself Abhijit Anil. This is my first ever airport work so i started with my home airport.Aviation in the Mumbai region dates back as far as 1932, when mail planes used the Juhu air strip, less than 3 miles / 2 km from the actual site of the city's airport today. In 1940, Mumbai decided to find an alternative site and a spot was chosen at Santa Cruz and Chhatrapati Shivaji Airport was born. Used by the military during the war years, Mumbai Airport was managed by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation from 1946 onwards and in 1958, a new terminal was opened.
    In 1972, the operation of Mumbai's Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport (BOM) was taken over by the International Airports Authority of India and expansion plans were soon implemented over the next three decades. By the turn of the new millennium, the airport had grown to become the busiest in the whole of India.
    Both the domestic and the international terminals at Mumbai International Airport offer extensive passenger and visitor facilities. These services include cashpoint machines, exchange desks and postal services throughout, while snack bars and restaurants provide sustenance, along with a series of vending machines. Duty-free shopping is also available, together with left luggage facilities in both terminals, medical services, quiet rooms, a Telecom centre, television screens and child care rooms.
    Business centres and executive lounges are available at Mumbai Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport for the exclusive use of business-class passengers. Conference facilities are to be found at the nearby Leela Kempinski Hotel, with is less than 1 mile / 1.5 km away and can be reached in minutes.


    Features:- 
    1) Added Missing gates 
    2) Added Night Lights to each gates and taxiway.
    3) Made Boundary and reworked on the surrounding area 
    4) Accurate ground detailing
    5) taxi signs and taxi way are assigned according to real world chart.
    6) Wind sock position accurate to real world.
    7) All ground vehicles will follow service path instead of taxi line 
    8) All GA aircrafts have given a separate location in the airport with small hangars next to it.
    9) All Cargo Plane have given a separate location in the airport with cargo hangars in front of it.


    Installation:-

    Just drag and drop the sub folder vabb-alkee folder from vabb-alkee_rAvqK into your community folder. (Note :- If you have previous verison of my airport delete it and add this new file "vabb-alkee' instead.

    The ILS ISCZ and IBBY get corrupt with this, removing this mod brings them back. Just FYI. For users who want to use this without ILS can still get their ILS using the RMP Panel on the pedestal in the aircraft overriding the MCDU.

    Love the work. I enjoy taking off from here. However, is it just me or anyone else facing issues with ILS 27 approach? Tried different planes but unable to capture glide scope. Please advise if you faced the same. Overall love it otherwise.
