Typical Air Traffic

There is much general aviation on all islands in summer. There come only a few to small islands like Baltrum or even 60 on bigger like Norderney or Wangerooge.

Additionally there are flying the airlines LFH, FLN and OLT to the islands:

• The LFH (Luftverkehr Friesland Harle) flies mainly to the island Wangerooge with 3 BN-2B Islanders; also it goes to the islands Langeoog to Juist with 4 Reims Cessna 172. An important special ist the so called "Filmflug" (Movie Flight): Mainly the chief flies by the whole German North Sea cost and changes the movies of the island's cinemas to get a very fast movie exchange between them. (www.inselflieger.de)
• The FLN (Frisia Luftverkehr Norden) flies to the islands Norderney and Juist. It uses 3 BN-2B Islanders and 2 Cessna 172.
• The OLT flies with its BN-2B Islanders to Borkum and from Bremerhaven via Wangerooge to Helgoland in summer. It flies cargo to the islands with its Cessna 208B Grand Caravan, too.

Compatibility

This scenery is compatible to FS2002 and FS2004. AFD datas are available for both versions, AI flightplans only for FS2004.

If you install the lighthouses scenery of Marcel Kuhnt or the FS2000 Helgoland scenery of Arne Kintzel, they should have a lower priority then the East Frisian scenery; in FS2004 you can use the scenery without any problems together with MyTraffic 2004. I have NOT tested it with MyTraffic for FS2002.

Installation Update 3.1

• You have to have installed the version 3.0. Then you have to extract the zip file into a temporary directory. Now you have to copy the "Ostfr" folder into the FS2004 directory, where you had copied the old "Ostfr" folder.
• Just for FS2004 I made new AFD-Datas for the airfield Anderwarfen (unreal ICAO code: ADWF). You find it in the folder "ostfr_afd_1" which also has to be copied to this place where you once copied the "ostfr_afd_1" folder while you installed version 3.0.
• Now you will a landclass data file in the folder "ostfr_landclass". This you have to copy into the "scenery" or the "addon scenery" directory and to register in the scenery library. If you have vfr-Germany 1, its landclass folder should then should have a lower priority then the new entry.
• Also there are now new effects implementated: you have to copy the contents of the "effects" folder into the "effects" folder of the FS.
