This was a scenery project inspired by another project I was working on. While working on the hangers and terminal at Brunswick Regional (KSUT), I took a flight from there to KILM Wilmingon. I decided along the flight to look for the USS North Carolina moored on the Cape Fear River. And I found her. Only she was a flat Google Earth image (I use the MSFS Map Enhancement Tool and use Goole Earth textures), I imagine the image shows up flat and non-3D in Bing maps also. Although the USS North Carolina in the WARBIRDS FLEET PACK MSFS (purchased at SimMarket, https://secure.simmarket.com/marine-flightsim-warships-fleet-pack-msfs.phtml) is listed as an Airplane Sim Object, I found it much easier to work with here as a Scenery Package rather than a SimObject Package. Coordinates for the USS North Carolina museum are 34 degrees 14.11 minutes N, 77 degrees 57.44 minutes W. Now Wilminton has her boat. To fly to her, take off Runway 24 at KILM, Wilmington, NC and fly directly straight to the Cape Fear River, then turn to port, you will not miss the big boat.

Great. Thank you very much.
Are you by any chance also planning on a USS Alabama and USS Massachusetts mod?

That's crazy, same thing happened in my brother's MSFS. He uses default Bing Maps, but I don't think that should have anything to do with it. I hope others are not having this problem. I even deleted it from my Community folder and downloaded the file here and at SOH to see if it was compatible with the latest SU and in both the downloads took once unzipped and dropped into the Community folder. So I have no idea what the problem may be with some systems.My brother runs Windows 11 and I have noticed a lot of add ons like the We Love VFR are not showing in his MSFS? He has a very fine PC system too, RTX 3070, 32 GB RAM, i9 CPU, and all SD cards, the works. But my PC with a measly RTX 3060, i7 chip, 32 GB RAM, and 2 TB HDD outperforms his with everything cranked. I wish I could tell you.

The crazy thing about KSUT is that Asobo or someone did the main airport with the General Aircraft terminal and all the hangers, but noone touch the jetport, the terminal and all hangers and buildings were flat. I have already added the structures, but have some ground textures I need to attend too before sending it up.

I could do them, but I would have to use the USS North Carolina as a base. I could alter the name and ship number, but otherwise they'd be one and the same. It still beats a flat image. I shall take a look in Google ERarth for them and save the imager, then work from there.
