Approaching Quito – Historic Procedures
Aerosoft GmbH 2016
There are two versions of the scenery. The version you should use
depends on whether you use a realistic add-on mesh (we have tested the
scenery with FSGlobal products) or just the plain default mesh scenery of
the flight simulator product. The non-default mesh version provides
more accurate and true-to-life terrain, including the infamous small hill
at the end of RWY 35. You can either choose the version you want
during the install or later with the provided config tool.
Scenery Features
• Historically accurate model of the airport and it‘s buildings
• High definition passenger terminal building, carefully modeled
from reference photos taken while the airport was still in ope-
ration
• Highly detailed apron ground textures, with aircraft type mar-
kings at gates true to what they were during the final days of
operation
• Immediate airport surroundings and industrial areas
• Custom ”Quito style” landclass with autogen annotation for
around the airport to improve blending to the default scenery
• Hand painted elevation mesh to realistically depict the hill and
slope just north of Runway 17/35
Config Tool
This tools allows a change to adapt to “FS Global Mesh” or to the
“Default Mesh” after the installation.
Only for FSX:
You can select between the display of Approach light to RWY 17 or
Autogen just short of RWY 17. Selecting both is not possible due to a
limitation in FSX. As there were hardly any approaches during night or
bad conditions to RWY 17 we recommend the display of the autogen.
Special information
As the old Quito Airport isn’t active any more, there are no recent
charts available. You can find older charts here:

In order to use the airport in the FMC of a modern airplane, the
following text should be copied into the file wpNavAPT.txt (in this case
for the PMDG), otherwise the airport will not be shown in the FMC
QUITO/MARISCAL SUCRE INTSEQU35 10236354 -0.150608
-78.486797110.5035409198
QUITO/MARISCAL SUCRE INTSEQU17 10236174 -0.127197
-78.490311000.0017409217
This should be done after every update of the AIRAC change.
As the waypoints around Quito have changed, approaches should be
made via the VOR/DME QIT and QMS – those are still connected to the
air routes.
Additionally, in the folder and in the Start menu you can find the text
file SEQU.txt, whose text needs to be added to the Nav data.
Please note that any manual changes described here
are done on your responsibility and that we can
offer no support regarding this “tweak”!
