The default KESN airport in Easton, MD is missing all the hangers. This file simply adds MSFS hangers that somewhat resemble the hangers seen IRL.
To install, unzip and copy the folder KESN.Easton to your community folder.
V1.1 has lots of changes. See changelog!
V1.2 swaps some hangers for open hangers. Thanks to Windhover and his Open Hanger Library (https://flightsim.to/file/26325/open-hangar-library). Note: file name has been changed. Do not forget to delete the old "KESN.Easton" folder from your community folder before installing this update.

Jim! You have added so much life to this airport, which was DOA in MSFS. Not only in earlier versions did you replace melted spots of color where hangars and other faciities should have been, but now with 1.3 and 1.4 you have added open hangars and nicely positioned static aircraft, including aircraft in open hangars. The vast majority of MSFS default and addon airports still lack open hangars and thus they look dead and lifeless. You rock on this one! This airport is now ALIVE! And should be a great example to other addon developers.
Then you added the vintage fighter jet parked near the main ops facility. You have added so much LIFE to this airport. As the original requestor I cannot thank you enough! But will say,thank you so much! A HUGE thank you!

I did it all just for you. Heh...
I saw it as an opportunity to learn a little bit on how to modify an airport. It was fun!

Would you consider adding in the "crashed" Piper (N926SA) that's parked in the grass next to the shell station? It's right across the street from the threshhold for RWY 22.

I started working on a taxiway cleanup for Easton to get everything labeled and signage correctly. Just curious how MSFS would handle 2 sets of updates for the same airport. Or would there be a benefit to combine updates into 1. Since you got here first, I'd be willing to send you my file if you think you can combine them together.

I honestly have no idea what would happen if there were two active addons for the same airport. You might want to give it a try with both my and your addons active at the same time and see what happens. My best guess is that which ever addon appears second (alphabetically) in the Community folder will be the one that is shown.
I'm about to leave for two weeks, so will not be able to do anything for a bit. If you do the above and it does behave as I suspect, I'd be happy to try to incorporate your changes into my addon, with appropriate credit. Do note that I did label the taxiways (using an airport chart) and include appropriate signage to the best of my ability with the current version, but improvements are always welcome.

For those who are not aware, KESN Easton-Neunan Regional in Easton, Maryland, was horribly neglected in MSFS with only blobs of color on the ground where buildings should have been. Mr. Brown has beautifully corrected that. Just look at the before and after images he posted.
