| Sheldons Cabin |
|
File Description:
Don Sheldon was one of the great early bush pilots in Alaska. He was the founder of Talkeetna Air Service and the first person to routinely fly support (and rescue) for climbers on Mt. McKinley. In the early 1950's he built this cabin to serve as a base for these flights. The Sheldon family still own the cabin and it is rented out to climbers and others who just want to spend some time on the mountain.

| Viva Scenery Volume 2 |
|
File Description:
Re-upload. This is a collection of scenery enhancements for smaller airports, mostly in British Columbia, Alaska and northern Canada. It was not our intention to do anything fancy or particularly accurate, but simply to make the default scenery less boring and more fun. There are 95 airports in Volume 2. We've also included some general aviation AI traffic for many of these airports. The scenery for any individual airport may be removed without affecting the other airports.

| St Michael Island in Alaska-St Michael 5S8 and Stebbins WBB |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
St Michael Island is 50 miles southwest of Unalakleet, an island that in fact appears to be a cape and a firmly attached piece of the mainland. On the island there are two villages, St Michael on the northeast corner and Stebbins on the northwest. St Michael has a new airfield that is west of the village by around a mile or so, with a gravel runway 4,000 feet long. The old and now closed airport was known as SMK, and is now readily identifiable by the new red-roofed school building that occupies the centre of the runway. The new airfield now has an icao code of PAMK, but FS9 does not readily accept icao code changes so we are stuck with the original code it was given, 5S8. The SMK icao of the old airport will still show on your gps as if I deleted it the runway would also have to be deleted, and a substitute and unsatisfactory gravel apron made to impersonate a runway. Stebbins is 5 miles west of St Michael and next to the shore, a smaller village than St Michael with around 250 inhabitants. The airfield is at the southern end of the village and has a gravel runway that is 3,000 feet long. The icao code is WBB. There is no AI included here as it was already included in the post of Shaktoolik. There is a correction here for Shaktoolik, which I now find should have had a blue garage, not a red one; I wrongly named a photo. A note here about my scenery making. This is post number 501 and there will not be many more to follow this as I am almost at the end of the photos I took or found for scenery purposes. There is a limit to what can be located online and I have already been making use of the little there is; eg Unalakleet. So, if you are near an airfield (preferably Canadian or Alaskan) and have a camera..... Let me know.

| 9A8 - Ugashik, PAII - Egegik, AK96 - Bartletts, AK36 - Coffee Point , Alaska, USA |

File Description:
All four of these depend heavily on fishing but two of them only spring into existance during the salmon catching-and-canning season. Grant Air run scheduled flights to the two permanent settlements, and there are irregular scheduled flights and charters to the others according to demand. Ugashik is a permanent settlement 60 miles northeast of Port Heiden, stretched out along the east bank of the Ugashik River. There are two canneries, one old and collapsing and the other newer and functioning. The population is given as 12, though during the season this increases significantly. The (newer) airfield is at the northern end of the village with a gravel runway 3,500 feet long aligned 06-24. Egegik is the second permanent settlement, 45 miles north of Ugashik and 40 miles southwest of King Salmon, on the east bank of the Egegik River. The town is on a corner of land, with a population of around 110 and two operating canneries. The airport is a mile and a half south of the town with two gravel runways, 12-30 at just under 5,600 feet and 03-21 with 1,500 feet; both are lit. On the other side of the Egegik River are more canneries and two airfields, both of which have two runways but are otherwise entirely without facilities or luxuries such as lights. They are called Bartletts (named for the cannery it serves) and Coffee Point (named for the location). The shacks of the seasonal fishermen are strung out along the coast and a lot of the salmon fishing is by net, laid by a small boat and later pulled ashore for emptying. Only one cannery on the west shore has a docking facility for unloading boat-caught fish.

| Bethel area airfields in southwest Alaska close to the Yukon River |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This presumes you have already installed my post of Bethel PABE. In the Yukon River area of Alaska there are a lot of small villages close together, which is unusual for Alaska. Almost all of them are on the coast or a river bank, and the local economies depend on fishing. Some are larger than others and have a fish processing plant, such as in Emmonak. This is the largest such plant and it exports prepared fish by cargo planes which fly in on a daily basis, using an extended runway. This post includes airfields to the south and west of PABE, 17 of them; some of them already included and now modified. There will be more airfields to the north and northwest of Bethel in a future post. There are revisions to Bethel to include parking spaces for Yute Air (newly included here) and extra spaces for Ryan Air. Both of these flew Cessna 205 planes into the smaller village strips from Bethel (past tense as Yute Air recently went bankrupt). The northwest area is served both from Bethel and also from St Mary's PASM, which is in the northwest and at a more economical range to the local airfields (100 miles closer than Bethel). These smaller airfields have few airfield buildings or any other creature comforts; featuring heavily are a new standard blue garage building (sometimes not yet installed) and a small and old terminal shed (that has sometimes collapsed and been removed). Go to "http://vfrmap.com/" for free vfr maps of the area, There is a pic of the local chart area included here. The screenshots are a random sample. Kipnuk PAKI is the one that appears to have a second and long grass runway; what it actually has is the ground prepared for a new and long gravel runway but which hasn't been started yet as it has taken 10 years just to prepare the ground. I have no idea why.

| Mangalore Airport VOML |
|
File Description:
This scenery models Bajpe Airport, Mangalore (VOML) in Southern India (as seen in 2004). Works best when combined with my "India_76m-Mesh_Part_A" available at the AVSIM library.
Mangalore airport is known for it's infamously short runway that sits on top of a table-top mountain. This is modelled quite accurately in my mesh for Southern India. There have been quite a few near miss incidents in the past 20Yrs. So, if you're flying big tin, don't forget to step on the brakes ;-)

| 28A - Goose Creek Airport |

File Description:
FS2004 Scenery--Goose Creek Airport (28A), is a small GA airfield located near Indian-Trail, North Carolina (NC), USA. It is home to Pressley Aviation Inc., a popular flight-training school. This scenery package uses common objects from the Rwy12 and EZ-Scenery libraries (not included) and these are required for correct scenery display. A good high-quality terrain mesh from FSGenesis or equivalent supplier is also recommended for best results. It will work with the default FS2004 terrain engine as well.
