This is my first free scenery for MSFS. Greater Kankakee airport statys between Champaign Urbana Airport (KCMI) and Chicago Meigs KCGX. These two airports were used by me in the 90s to fly in the FS4 and FS5 so that's why I love this airport.
This is an early beta but you can try. I hope you like it.

Early beta? Looks more complete than paywares from one certain vendor...
Very nice. Hope you will build a few more like this.
(Although, I did see a couple minor issues you may know about: the floor in the terminal is flickering, and I would love to see you add in the flat building behind the terminal.)

Thank you for creating this scenery. I look forward to your continued work. The next information is not a criticism but simply advice:
-Update the name of the modellib.BGL file in all of the scenery files to reflect MS/Asobo guidelines (Oct. 2020) to give it a unique name (such as adding the 'ICAO code' for airports to the file: Example (ICAO-modellib.BGL) or in this case, maybe kikk-modelLib.BGL, and then update the layout.json file to reflect the new name.) Always give each modelLib file a unique name in every scenery/airport.
-The Problem: MSFS only reads the first file in the Community folder named modellib.BGL and then uses that file for all others with the same name. Renaming it avoids conflicts with any other scenery in the Community folder and gives your scenery the proper appearance with fewer problems/conflicts with other files in the Community folder.
-The same is true for the 'mycompany' folder. If other companies use the 'mycompany' folder name, then conflicts can occur. (EX: kikk-mycompany)
-The same is true for 'mymaterials\' if that ever applies to your scenery. (EX: kikk-mymaterials)
-The same is true for 'MaterialLibs\textures\' or 'MaterialLibs\mymaterials\textures\' if that ever applies to your scenery.
-Just remember to update the layout.json file so the entries match the folder or file names.
-I hope you don't this as a criticism of your work, because that is a nice beginning.
