Some time ago, I began the development of the Roucourt aerodrome mod with the encouragement and graphical assistance of Olham. RAF_Louvert contributed his knowledge to the project as well. Without these two the project would not have happened. Currently the only things left to complete is the creation of a properly scaled church and the chateau.

The following is a vid capture of the current state of affairs.

Robert, great that you are still thinking of completing it!
I see you planted the trees for the park now - everything looks great so far!

I never touched 3D modelling yet - somehow the summer got in the way! biggrin
But I really think it should get finished, and I will ask Hauksbee again -
maybe he can build the Chateau for us, or I must try it - with his help.
Same for the church.
Would be a shame to leave it unfinished!

Looks good! cheers

Constructive criticism: remove that long building by the coal mine. You see it at 1:43 in the video. Photographs show no such building was present at that location.

Tnx for the support folks, it is appreciated!

JFM, thanks for the pointer about the long building. I will make a mental note to remove it.

Best Regards

Great work Sir! Looks very lively and believable! Must be much more rewarding to survive a mission and come home to THIS fully fleshed out, breathing aerodrome (not to metion the final approach via the church...).
Great, great, great!!!
