EGTE – Exeter Airport UK – Upgrade v1.0
EGTE Exeter is my nearest proper airport so I couldn’t look myself in the mirror until it was saved from ignominy.
The in sim airport has bizarre taxiways that have oozed all over clearly disused land and it has the usual blankness that we all know and love.
This version has had the taxi system ripped out and rebuilt, erasing the rogue aprons, taxi routes and parking spaces and adding a more sensible set up with some north apron and grass parking along with the main apron.
The ground markings have been removed and redone and some custom textures added. The non bonkers aprons have been erased and closer matches have been glued on.
A ton of extra detail has been added including letting my increasingly deranged obsession with car parks run riot. The buildings and hangars on the opposite side of the airfield have been filled in. The industrial estate around the airport has been lit properly as it was pitch black at night, and of course the airport has too as that was near dark as well.
There’ll be places where the buildings don’t match as I decided it would be better to keep what was there due to lighting. No doubt I’ve left some gaping mistakes here and there as I’ve been churning at this non stop for days so if there’s anything you spot please let me know.

Great to have Exeter Airport, but the runways are the wrong way around. Runway numbers should correspond to the compass direction of take off. Would it be possible to correct this as apart from that it is a great replacement of the dreadful default offering and much appreciated, so thanks very much.
