Hello Gary
          Are you aware there is no fuel supply at EGPK either by Fuel Box or by Tanker?. I cannot believe there is no refuelling available in the real world and the icon message bar option is not immersive IMHO.
Any chance of a patch ?
Regards

Cornwall Newquay Airport EGHQ (MSFS has it incorrectly listed as 'St Mawgan AB'), situated in the picturesque county of Cornwall, UK, is a vibrant hub of both commercial aviation and aerospace innovation. Nestled near the renowned coastal town of Newquay, the airport serves as the gateway to one of England's most beloved tourist destinations, providing convenient access to Cornwall's stunning beaches, rugged cliffs, and charming villages.

History:
Cornwall Newquay Airport started as RAF St Mawgan EGDG, an airbase for the Royal Air Force during World War II. The airfield was primarily used for anti-submarine patrols and as a Coastal Command base. RAF St Mawgan continued to be an important base for maritime reconnaissance and search and rescue operations. The United States Navy used the base for anti-submarine warfare during the Cold War. The Air base was also home to classic British Nimrod during the 1980s,1990s and 2000s. In the 1980s saw the construction of the Hardened Aircraft Shelters (HAS) which were primarily used to house and protect the United States Air Force aircraft. Specifically F-111, these shelters were designed to safeguard the aircraft from potential Soviet attacks during the Cold War. In 2008 the airport was rebranded as Newquay Cornwall Airport and officially separated from RAF St Mawgan. Commercial operations were expanded, and investment was made to upgrade facilities to support increased passenger traffic. In 2019 Cornwall Airport Newquay was recognized as the fastest-growing airport in the UK in terms of passenger numbers, reflecting its increasing popularity. In 2021 The UK Space Agency announced that Cornwall Airport Newquay would be the site of Spaceport Cornwall, with plans for horizontal satellite launches in partnership with Virgin Orbit and in 2022 Spaceport Cornwall saw its first operational activities, marking a significant milestone in the airport's history and its role in the UK's space industry.

Today:
The airport boasts modern facilities designed to cater to the needs of travellers and businesses alike. The terminal building offers a range of amenities, including retail outlets, dining options, and car rental services. Cornwall Newquay Airport offers a variety of flight services, including scheduled domestic and international flights, seasonal charters, and private aviation options. Key routes connect Cornwall with major UK cities such as London, Manchester, and Edinburgh, as well as popular holiday destinations in Europe. The airport is served by several airlines, including Ryanair, British Airways, and Loganair, providing travellers with a range of options for their journeys.


This Product will be available from the MS Marketplace and the simmarket shortly.
Please Note: Screen shots were take before the MSFS world update July 2024, the video was after the update. (the difference is the default  aerial photos of the ground)

The latest UK free MSFS package has fixed the IOM problem. No more bad aerial images😀. It's also made my Cardiff redundant😕

However I still use my cardiff as Im not a fan of this blotchy ground and over the top dirt everywhere.

I will also check the other airports, I know Bristol has tree issues with the Update.
