| Driftwood Bay AK23 near Dutch Harbor Alaska |

File Description:
This is Driftwood Bay, an Air Force field that is just 13 miles northwest of Dutch Harbor, and was once part of a DEW line station with a road heading up the hill.
In FS9 the stock runway is concrete and if you have a mesh with the hills correctly positioned then the runway sits in a deep hole on the hillside. In fact the runway is gravel, 3,500 feet long and aligned 32/14 next to the beach, which is where I moved it to. The beach, as configured by Ultimate Terrain (and contrary to my previous doubts, UT does cover the Aleutians) is incorrect, in that a marshy area just behind the beach is shown as sea with large indentations in what should be a fairly straight line of sand. However, this does not squeeze AK23 in any way so I left it; consider it to be a spring high tide. There is very little at AK23 beyond a gravel runway and a windsock and the AI is an Alaska State Troopers Piper Super Cub from Dutch Harbor, presumably monitoring the numerous Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge areas.

| AR09 - Bella Vista Field - Arkansas, USA |

File Description:
This is my first attempt at creating an airport for FSX. This airfield is located in Gravette, Arkansas, and is currently owned by Hendren Aviation. I added a few assets, so that it would appeal more to the casual simmer. Such changes, for example, is adding a helicopter pad, when in real life there isn't one. The changes are very mild, and are pointed out on the included BMP. This airport should definitely appeal to anyone who is a bush pilot. The approach from the south is a bit challenging.
You must have the Acceleration addon. This is version 2.0, which supersedes version 1.0.Version 1.0 was given to only 2 people for testing purposes, and it shouldn't have found it's way onto the internet. Please contact me if you ever come across version 1.0.
Future updates will include accurate models of the buildings, accurate night lighting (it's a grass airstrip, and as of right now, the only lighting comes from street lights and buildings), and a few changes to the airport background.
I hope everyone enjoys this scenery as much as I enjoyed learning and creating it.

| Alaska North Slope 6; Oliktok POLI |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Oliktok is a DEW station Air Force base to the east of the Colville River delta, 160 miles east of Barrow and 12 miles from Harmon Helmericks house and dirt strip in the delta on Anachlik Island. (See my previous post, made after reading his book about northern Alaska flying). The runway is just over 4,000 feet of gravel and aligned 03-21. The large hangar is still there, and so are the majority of the DEW buildings closer to the beach. There are now also some oil production facilities and living quarters nearby on the point, but these are not included in this scenery as to make them convincingly (and there is no point in making them unconvincingly!) would be 100+ times as laborious as making the airstrip. And as Sid has memorably said, "If you can't taxi up to it, then xxxx it". So this scenery is dated way before the north slope was changed from a wilderness to an industrial complex. The AI is one day a C-130, on another a Cessna, and on a third a Reeve Aleutian DC-6B.

| Alaska South Slope 2 - Noorvik ORV in AK US |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
The town of Kotzebue is in the far northwest of Alaska, and these are villages to the north and the east of Kotzebue on the South Slope of the Brooks Range of mountains. There will be further additions. Noorvik is a small village (population now around 670) on the bank of the Kobuk River, around 50 miles east of Kotzebue. The new airfield is 1 mile south of the village; there is a short runway immediately south of the town that is now closed but is not marked as such and appears to be usable; this will still be listed in FS9 when you are presented with a choice of runways but is not connected in any way to the new airfield so ignore it. The new ORV runway has 4,000 feet of lit gravel aligned 06-24. There are scheduled flights by Era (now renamed Ravn) and by Bering Air, both of them originating in Kotzebue and routing east to Noorvik, Kiana, Ambler, Shungnak, Kobuk, and then back again. The AI includes these flights (eventually) plus perhaps an Everts Air cargo flight and GA.

| Houston Galveston Scenery Package v6.51-7.xxx |
|
File Description:
As promised, here are my Houston-Galveston Scenery Packs. I live in Houston and have been working on these areas for quite some time. Like all of us, we like to make our hometown airports as elaborate and as challenging as possible. Even tho these packs are in no way accurate, they are fun and interesting to fly around and site-see. Being the lazy person I am, no research was done and no claim to RL landmarks are implied.
I have added many objects to the airports and cities including terminals, hangers, buildings, parks, balloons, and other fun and interesting things. All of which were begged, borrowed or stolen from all the wonderful designers in the X-Plane Community such as Dave Spurlock, Christian Franz, Ted Davis, Robert Bunce, Tom Curtis, B. Brooks and all the others who have inspired me.
Like all my scenery packages, the additions to the citys and airports are purely fictional. The airports themselves are unaltered. I have enhanced "George Bush Intercontinental"(KIAH), "William P. Hobby"(KHOU), "Ellington Field Military Base"(KFLD) and "Scholes International" at Galveston (KGLS) airports. Look for the Johnson Space Center too.
