This airport offers an inspiring scenic flight on approach, nestled in a lush valley, surrounded by the Bella Coola river and snow crested alpine peaks. The airport, ground textures and surrounding buildings have been hand-crafted and include the true to life details, and includes PBR textures throughout and a high-res custom groundpoly. Bella Coola is a true jewel of the Pacific Fjords and is coming soon to Microsoft Flight Simulator!

EagleSkinner Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Awwww... it's just a cuddly teddy b..........................aaarrrggghhhh Erm. Is it animated? Question: last time I flew Bell a few weeks back, there was a huge terrain glitch (elevation fault line near the dam north of the region. Does this affect your Bella Coola? Ithink it's a terrain tile edge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasonDominique Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 (edited) Great airport. Runway length allows many challenges. Wonderful landscape and connections to PAKT and CYVR Dom NB : Was it on the 2021 Orbx roadmap ? Edited April 24, 2021 by MasonDominique 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ripcord Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 I know I gripe a lot about having fewer new products being offered for P3D than MSFS, but I do understand it - and I like that Orbx is continually/gradually reworking their old classics and giving them new life in MSFS. I applaud you for that. It is good to know all that is going to be there for me when I do finally decide to make the jump over, later when the sim is more fully baked. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylanear Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 BC is a fantastic locale in MSFS, so lucky it's my home turf/airspace. But why is Victoria completely lacking add ons? A hand crafted Victoria airport and seaplane base and the seaplane terminal downtown all scream out for add ons! Especially now that CVYR and downtown have seaplane infrastructure thanks to FSim Studios. Just found out about CAK3 Delta Heritage Airpark and bought that. I had a free version that was better than nothing. But I'm not seeing CYBD Bella Coola on Orbx Central yet?? TAKE MY MONEY!!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGunard Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Great news! Such a fantastic setting for an airfield :-) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertPilot Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 (edited) Very glad CYBD is planned for MSFS, it was one of my favorite sceneries back in P3D. When I finally get back into flightsim after an extended break (due to life circumstances and also waiting for MSFS to become very stable), CYBD will be the very first airport I buy. And I look forward to Orbx releasing additional classics in MSFS! Edited April 26, 2021 by DesertPilot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvdboomen Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 Now we're talking Orbx! This one, together with Elstree and Shoreham gets us back to the old days of the GA airports. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airlifter Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Totally awesome! Have it in P3D and had some very nice flights to and from it. Though not realistic, it's a nice challenge to land a 737BBJ there . Now we only need the Majestic Q400 in MSFS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregJ Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Excellent - hopefully all the PNW pack can be completed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylanear Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 I see a page for CYBD Bella Coola now, but a week since this announcement it's still not for sale? Anyone have any idea when I can buy this?? Is this an "Any day now" thing, or a "Check back in a few months from now", kind of thing. I don't want to check every weekend if it's going to be a few months. https://orbxdirect.com/product/cybd-msfs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holger Sandmann Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 Hi guys, no need to go 'dude' here. Big things that can't make it up or down the tricky stretch of the 'impossible' highway get shipped in by barge. There's plenty of large equipment in Bella Coola.

Dylanear Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 "Welcome to beautiful Bella Coola in Canada, a spectacular alpine location in the Pacific Fjords, >>now available<< for Microsoft Flight Simulator." I realize that surely was pasted from something written to be published once this is available, but I do find it ironic!!! Trying to me patient. I have no urgent need, just an eager desire for this airport. But can anyone in the know give an ETA?? Is this due any day? Few weeks? A few months? Is there perhaps just a few small hold ups? The images sure make it look about ready! Anyways. You have a customer here for sure once this is available!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First there 3-4 stages of announcements. 1. [Airport Name] Comming to [Simulator Name] 2. [Airport Name] .... First Shots ..... 3. [Airport Name] Some more shots .... (this is optional topic) 4. [Airport Name] ... Final Shots .... after final shots it’s usually 4 more days until You can buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
