X-Plane cut off my ATC once I landed at Tauranga Airport because there were only 4 parking spaces, that were all full, at the apron and none were added for GA parking. The four spaces were fill so ground cut off my ATC which I was testing the new system out.
I looked at editing the airport and ended up almost redoing the whole thing from scratched. Check it out:










I’ve added a fair bit of detail using only default assets, so it’s super easy to install. Just drop it into your custom scenery folder in X-Plane 12 (only).
The airport features multiple car parks that are hand made (although they are a bit rough, but good enough for a flight sim). There are many hangars, a couple of which are open with aircraft start positions:


There’s long lanes of hangar buildings, and I wish I had more variety in the buildings available, but this will do.

There’s also a gliding club:

I’ve tried to get the apron and terminal fairly close and add enough objects to keep it interesting:
