I enjoy flying the PMDG DC-6 in a USAF livery using a mission generator. Many of my flights are to and from Berlin and my airport of choice was Tempelhof as Brandenburg is too modern and was of course in the old Russian sector of Berlin.
As of SU6 Microsoft deleted the airport which closed in 2008 but thanks to Superspud it was possible to fly to the airport again, albeit without any aids.
Superspud very generously provided his project files to enable development of the scenery and this is my result.
I have retextured the runways, apron and taxiways, removed the modern solar panels and buildings on the north east apron.
Most parking spots have been added including 2 under canopy stands.
Runway 9R/27L has approach lighting, PAPI and ILS added. Runway 9L/27R has a 3.7deg PAPI.The runway information is from 2001 data
The VOR TOF has been added along with two approach NDB.
NOTE There are some annoying lights near runway 9L/27R and the East taxiway that are part of the MSFS imagery and would take major work to remove;Sorry.
I would recommend you also install the Berlin Tempelhof scenery by Tribalowski which provides the iconic curved terminal building/hangars with canopy.
INSTALLATION
Delete any existing airport-eddi-tempelhof and berlin-vor directory and extract the file in the zip (airport-eddi-tempelhof} to your Community Folder.
Once again many thanks to Superspud for reinstating the airport
v 2.1 Replace missing VOR and NDBs
V 2.0 compatible with SU7
Taxi routes now connected to ATC, frequencies in NAVDATA text file (IMPORTANT to read)
ILS DME positions adjusted to better fit approach charts
Runways/Displaced Thresholds adjusted and Runway Starts improved (not perfect)
Taxiways and Aprons improved and signs added
Parking sizes enlarged to improve AI aircraft and Ground Services
All navdata now in main file (IMPORTANT TO REMOVE BERLIN-VOR DIRECTORY)
Danke für deine Kreativität.

Hi,
I installed the latest version of Tempelhof, but the buildings on it are not like reality. It looks with me like a collection on a row of default hangars. The airfiled as such, runways etc are nice and fine.
What do I have to do to have tha building as shown on the pictures in the heading?

Hi Piet
It is in the description and dependencies, you need to download the file https://flightsim.to/file/19112/berlin-tempelhof-airport-eddi

Thank you for the quick update fix 👍
It is also good that you give a shout-out for the Berlin Tempelhof addon by Tribalowski, as it works very well with your mod.

Great addon, I enjoy flying to older airports and having EDDI back on my list is awesome!
One thing I have noticed is that there appears to be a rogue A320 impaled in an apartment block just to the west of the main terminal building. DownedAviator shared a video of this, but here are a few screenshots also: https://imgur.com/a/V6nNVNi

Hallo Leute, Vielen vielen Herzlichen Dank und das meine ich ernst, endlich ILS am Tempelhof zu haben. Hätte aber noch eine "klitzekleine Bitte". Wäre es möglich, die Original ILS und VOR Frequenzen einzufügen ? Natürlich nur wenn es nicht zu große Umstände macht. Wie auf der Anflugkarte: https://nav.vatsim-germany.org/files/edbb/charts/eddi/public/EDDI_AllInOne.pdf Viele Grüße Tim D. ihr seid echt Super.
Hi friends, Thank you very much and I mean it, to finally have ILS at Tempelhof. But I still have a "tiny request". Would it be possible to insert the original ILS and VOR frequencies ? Of course only if it is not too much trouble. As on the approach map: https://nav.vatsim-germany.org/files/edbb/charts/eddi/public/EDDI_AllInOne.pdf Many greetings Tim D. You are really great.

Hi, thanks for your comments. The answer to your request is no because as noted in the text file, these frequencies have been transferred to EDDB Brandenburg. As the airports are so close together you would get confused readings.
Best regards, Don

Thanks a lot for your addition. Everything works perfectly. Now flying has become much more interesting.

Great work.
The VOR and the two NDB:s are working ok so now possible to do NDB / VOR approach,
The both ILS:es do not show up on the ground and no DME:s with them.
Best,
Bjorn

Sorry you are having problems with the ILS/DME. I have checked and working fine here. Are you using the changed frequencies in the EDDI Tempelhof Navdata.txt file.
the DME distances are not quite right and will be corrected in an update in a few days time.
