My third Antarctica airport, that is not included in the original game.
EGAR - Rothera Research Station is a permanent British base in Antarctica. Rough weather and a short 900 meter gravel runway make this a very challenging airport to land at. In real life it is serviced by specially fitted Dash-7 aircraft.
This being my third project, I am still learning the SDK, but this is my most advanced project so far. It took a ton of terraforming and landscaping since Bing and OpenStreetMap are almost bare down there. Layout, features and services should be rather accurate, including PAPI on runway 180, though I am not sure if the angle is correct. Don't sue me if you crash land your plane, but feel free to comment if you have any ideas on how to improve it. :-)
For installation, just drop the unzipped folder into the community folder.
Enjoy!
If you like my work, please feel free to buy me a coffee. Thank you! :-)

thank you very much for this scenery. In the old fsx I used the addon Antarctica X from Aerosoft. EGAR was my favorite airstrip. You bring it back to us. Great work!

Oi, did you use my EGAR addon (Deepseagames) to build yours?! Some things look just the same! Yours seems a bit more detailed where I couldn't figure out the program yet. However would have been nice to know or collaborate. I guess with aerosoft beating us both now there's no point in carrying on for me. Nice base though!

Good Job. I can take off (just) with a fully fueled DC-6A. Will be staging out of there for my North-South Pole series of flights. Will try to land (and stop) tomorrow.

Also when requesting fuel near the hangar, the fuel truck doesn't go to you. It moves like 5 feet and stops.
