The story of Birch Coppice

Birch Coppice was a coal mine in Dordon, Tamworth. UK. After closure the sprawling site was turned into an industrial estate. There are already road and rail links. I thought I'd add an airlink. A 10 min cab ride from Tamworth Snowdome the sim usually puts you on final approach to R20 directly over EGBB Birmingham International, passing Kingsbury Water Park on the left. R02 approach takes you over the villages of Polesworth and Dordon and virtually over my home. I worked at Birch Coppice in the late 70s - early 80s as a coalface electrician. last_modified -09 /10/2026

Great airport! I see a lot of good work has gone into its creation. But I just wanted to let you know, that if you haven't seen it yet, there are a small clump of trees in the middle of your runway. Probably a small foliage rectangle that you forgot to erase. Other than that, excellent job.

B

Bravo D722

I landed last night at BC and didn't see any trees. Thanks for taking the time to comment. I'll have a look in a bit.

B

Bravo D722

I'm not seeing trees on the runway. Neither do I see the trees I placed that are clearly visible in the airport view.

B

Bravo D722

Am I alone? Anybody else seeing trees on the runway?

Hi Bravo D722 realy nice work, the airport feels real and well built. And you are not alone. I also see trees on the runway in the line with heliport No8

B

Bravo D722

Thanks LIMA 3K7M. B3 BURNER was the first to report this. Unfortunately I don't see any trees on the runway. If I can't see I can't fix it. It's as it appears on the airport view. So I can't even take a picture.

L

Lima 3K7M EDK9 EDH1

Hi Bravo D722 I had the trees today still again. I could make a picture of the trees but cant send it here. The rest of the airport is normal I think.

L

Lima 3K7M EDK9 EDH1

Hi Bravo the trees seem to be from the program and not trees from default coming thru. Maybe you klick around the centerline of your rwy in a line with the light pole in a line with heliport 8. Maybe it shows a klick spot to you that you can delete. Otherwise: I made a screenshot but cant post it here. I could sent it to you if I know where or i put it as an bug report in the discort chanel for bugs, if you want me to do that.

L

Lima 3K7M EDK9 EDH1

Hi Bravo ok, I posted my screenshot in your bug report in discord so you can see it too

B

Bravo D722

Hopefully the trees on the runway have gone.

L

Lima 3K7M EDK9 EDH1

Good news Bravo, I cant see the trees any more, so everythin is fine now!

B

Bravo D722

Thanks for checking for me.

Lima 3K7M EDK9 EDH1
