I hope the tweaked image for Glasgow shows the colours - please remember you are looking at a 2 mile zoom (so it would fit onscreen!)
Not every colour is used on every Kinetic High Resolution outline, so I have included a zoom from the Kinetic Avionic products Paris CDG high Resolutio outline to give you more of a flavour of the grey, yellow, pale blue and pale orange in use.



I have been asked why Kinetic has chosen these clours and the answer is simple really...
These are the colours chose by ICAO as a world wide standard for airfield markings painted on the ground - why re-invent the wheel!

I hope that gives you a little more background into the research that has gone into this work.

Hi Paul

As the guy who does most of the Low-res outlines for the RadarBox forum, I would like to add my thanks for your work - it's very impressive and useful - looking forward to your next release :-)

Rod,
Thank you very much for the kind words. I will PM you in a few minutes.

Bratters,
Kinetic High Resolution Nottingham EGBN...



I have an idea if you download the next version of SBS-resources on Monday 15th February, you may have a smile on your face... (Thats unless you are coming to the SBS openday at ML&S this Saturday)

These outlines are totally compatible with RadarBox software (typical .out files).
So those can be downloaded and copied to your \out folder easily.

SBS-resources is available in 2 versions now - as long as you have version 5 or higher installed, you can download the smaller update package - saves time and bandwidth if you are restricted.

The Kinetic High Resolution Lisbon is in the next edition of SBS-r out next week...
(I hope you can wait;-) )

And don't forget, that even for those airfields that don't have a hi-res outline, you'll be able to use the forthcoming Google Earth 3D option to see detailed airfield layouts.

Hi, might be a bit off topic but does anyone know how to import the Hi-res coastlines into the Airnav system. Much prefer the SBS outlines but not sure if it can be done or not.

Ta in advance

Just put the hires coast outlines into the Outlines folder.  I use:
COAST_HR_England.out
COAST_HR_Ireland.out
COAST_HR_Scotland_E.out
COAST_HR_Scotland_W.out
General.out (the one with the UK and Ireland coasts removed.

I think you mean the OUTLINES folder.
