File Description:
This is an updated version that includes the AI planes and WITH SCENERY TEXTURES. Rayak OLRA is at 3,183 feet asl in the Bekaa Valley in Lebanon, a short hop over the mountains from Beirut. It has a single runway almost 10,000 feet long, aligned 40-220. It used to be the main base of the small Lebanese air force (I think three Hawker Hunters) but is now, although still in use, relegated to secondary status since a new base was opened in the north of Lebanon. I believe there are also some civilian users, though that could be misinformation. I made this after a recent visit. Which does not mean that the buildings are all totally accurate but it is for sure better than the default FS9.
