I notice from satellite views and one photo I can find, that they've apparently built two new hangars to the north of the main one, since I left Lancaster, that are also both substantial size, but I can't tell vertical height. I can, however, notice the shadows they're casting in the satellite maps. So that should tell me the approximate vertical distance. (The smaller buildings I think I'll leave be for now.) I'm going to add these two buildings and then send the over to Martin.
Thanks to everyone who's helped!

Btw Martin, the east end of Runway 07-25 is REALLY bumpy.

I just did a practice run with the main hangar in the scenario. Took off on runway 25, made a right turn over Quartz Hill toward Lancaster, another right turn over Lancaster out to Lake L.A. and then turned back around to line up with the runway for a touch and go landing. (They do a lot of touch and go practice there.) That's when I found out how bumpy the 25 end of the runway was. :blink: But the scenario didn't crash whenever Site 10 was in frame, which was what I was testing.
I also saved two scenarios for inclusion in the next release: One on the east end of the runway, and one lined up for landing.

This is my best guestimate for the size and positions of the other two large hangars. I'm seeing if some of my local friends can get me some photographs of them for me.

Thanks to Google Streetview (why didn't I think of that before?), I have a new reference image for the Site 10 complex! I should have this finished in no time.
I'm also considering adding the Air Route Traffic Control Center, on the south side of the Plant, and as an Easter egg, BJ's Corner. (AV aerospace geeks will know where/what that is.)

For some reason I'm still getting random crashes. I've learned quite a lot in the past few weeks, and I'm not in any hurry... I think I'm going to rebuild the hangars from the ground up and see if I can make them more stable.

I'm working on hangar #1 now, rebuilding it from scratch, then I'll rebuild #2. I'm thinking it might be overlapping meshes or something stupid like that, that's causing the crashes.

My computer blue screened today. Fortunately came back up but it's the same error that had me down for a month, a couple of months back. I'm working on pushing my files to the cloud in case the computer takes a total dump on me again.

Saved everything to OneDrive for now. If I go down, the addon will be delayed but at least my work is safe on the cloud.

Progress report: Computer seems to have survived somehow. Now I just need to survive this nasty cold.
I've got hangars 2 and 3 and BJ's Corner fixed. Going to start to rebuild hangar 1after I get over my cold. Then I'll send it to Martin.

This project is not dead, but is on temporary hold as I've been having stability problems with my home system. (Not a necropost, it's my own damn thread. )
Currently, I have the two smaller hangars in place, one of them textured, and BJ's Corner is working. I was working on rebuilding the largest hangar, which is causing CTDs, when I started having larger computer issues.
I will keep you all posted when there is future progress on this. I'll eventually be sending Martin a copy to add to his addon.
