Version 5.0
Added night lights and some improvements in the parking lot.
Goldmund created a GSX-profile for Apia. A big shoutout to him! You can download his work here:
Version 4.6
A little update on request. Since Dave's 3D People Library is no longer available, I had to do a change in personnel. Akiko, the beautiful japanese stewardess had to go and make room for Sandy, the attractive pilot. She spent a wild night with John the pilot so she is still tired. Who knows if she is fit for a flight?
Johnny, the mechanic in the blue overall had to make way for Dave in the brown overall. Dave seems awake and at least pretends to work on the Bonanza.
The result: Dave's 3D People Library is now obsolete!
Version 4.5
Jetway 4 improved
Taxilines and taxilights completely redone
Several minor improvements
Version 4
Moved 707-scene to its original position
Main terminal improved
Added third jetway
Added fauna markers to animals
Added a few buildings
Changed the parked KingAir for the Asobo model
Version 3.1
Finally I found the Apia Tower frequency and was able to enable the ground services and get the jetways going. New in this update:
Working jetways and ground services
Taxiway signs
More visible yellow lines in runway overruns
More ground markings on secondary apron
Corrected ground markings on main apron
Better whales
Some work on the main terminal
Version 3.0
The following things were updated:
Removed passenger bridge on gate 4. Due to the shape of the building it is attached to, it had to be very small and didn't look appropriate. So I deleted it and moved the 707-scene to gate 4. Two real gates should be enough for Faleolo's traffic.
Corrected runway startup locations
Added runway markings
Added taxi lights
Added apron markings
Added runway signs
Removed grass in the small terminal
Changed static road traffic to driving on the left
Added solar panels in the remaining fields
Version 2.0
This version features a redone runway and parking. Due to the simple nature of ATC that Microsoft added to Faleolo by default, ground vehicles can still not be adressed. This is something for a future update.
I removed unwanted gas stations and added lots of extra eye candy, sea life and fun for the whole family.
Captain John flew in with his beautiful Quantas 707. Last night he had more than a drop too many! Now the passengers don't want to fly with a drunk captain.
Version 1.0
Welcome to Faleolo Airport in Apia, Samoa. I've been dropping things onto the island for a week now. Cars, trucks, Luggage, airplanes, people, animals, even buildings. Then I flattened the whole are. Now let's give the Samoans a little rest.
Hope you enjoy this rendition of the airport. It's not handcrafted so you need some phantasy but if you've never been there, you won't even recognise. Check out all the little detail including some turtles and birds on the coast.
This scenery is no less than historic because Samoa was the last nation in the Pacific that hadn't been touched by addon developers yet. :-)
Planned updates:
- Removing unwanted objects like gas stations
- Proper gates and moving jetways
- Adding all solar panels east of the airfield in 3D.
- More clutter
This is going to take a lot more time, so I decided to release the scenery now. Enjoy!

Only issue is that the jetways don't seem to work. I've downloaded all the links but still nothing.
Would you be able to try and fix it? Might need to swap them out for default jetways.
