Maintenance area moved to the chart position
The hangars, tower, compound and tank farm now sit where the 1996 chart and airport plan put them, at the chart's angle.
The maintenance area has moved to where the 1996 aircraft parking and docking chart and the airport plan put it: a strip of hangars and aprons behind the terminal's north-west end, turned to follow the chart's angle instead of the runway's.
What changed
- The hangars, workshop tower, interline building, fenced compound, blast fence and floodlights moved together and turned to the chart's angle
- Parked maintenance aircraft face the hangar doors again
- Hangar walls and the tank farm still block aircraft and the autopilot correctly
- Three maintenance office buildings were added from the chart
The sim's terminal block and car park do not match the chart exactly, so the strip sits slightly further out than on the real plan to stay clear of them.
維修區已經移去1996年停機坪及泊位圖同機場平面圖所示嘅位置：喺客運大樓西北端後面一條機庫同停機坪，跟圖表嘅角度轉向，而唔係跟跑道。
改咗啲乜
- 機庫、工場塔、聯運大樓、圍欄維修區、擋噴氣牆同泛光燈一齊移動，轉到圖表角度
- 停喺維修區嘅飛機再次面向機庫門
- 機庫牆身同油缸區仍然會正確阻擋飛機同自動駕駛
- 根據圖表加咗三座維修辦公大樓
模擬器嘅客運大樓同停車場同圖表唔完全吻合，所以呢條維修區要比真實平面圖再遠少少，避開佢哋。
