dominique Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 4S1 GOld Beach Muni, NCA A small-town airport at the mouth of a river that flows down from rolling hills. Pretty area with photoreal potential. VFR only. KMYL McCall, CRM A good starting point for those Idaho back country airstrips with 'Bar' in the name. Local lakes for floatplane access, neaby NDB & VOR. Stupid of me, I forgot KMYL ! Yes indeed, you need MCall if you're any serious about bush flying ! Punching it in now. I hesitated to add Goldbeach because I already voted for Brookings but is is indeed a great little airport ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jabble Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I hesitated to add Goldbeach because I already voted for Brookings but is is indeed a great little airport ! Indeed I thought about Brookings, also a very pretty setting, but the small-town intimacy of Gold Beach won me over. Perhaps a little like Sekiu's higher detail distribution, there are a few spots nearby that would be worthy of attention, such as the Pistol River mouth and the offshore Needle rocks. I've never been to either town in real life, so I'm basing this on P3D/PNW and Google Earth Doubtless a bit of local knowledge would much more valuable.

Ben77 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 So far for me..... YWLM Williamtown AU (Regional Airport come RAAF base on the beautiful NSW coast) YPKS Parkes AU (Country NSW and home of the famous radio telescope) YSCN Camden AU (Good sized GA airport on the outskirts of Sydney) YTEM Temora AU (Country NSW and home to some classic warbirds) KMMV McMinnville PNW (Home of the amazing Evergreen Aviation Museum....been there ) O86 Trinity Center NCA (Cool little Airpark just north of Redding) 4S1 Gold Beach NCA (Spectacular location on the Oregon coast) KLMT Klamath Falls NCA (Nice mid-sized airport in CA to compliment Redding) 2 votes in the pocket for later!

Vora Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Hi Volker, Hokitika ist a great place, but do you know there's already an excellent NZSI compatible freeware rendition available from Godzone? Kind regards, Michael Wow, thanks Michael. I really missed that one as it was listed under VLC freeware. Wonderful place! So I wasted one vote that should have gone to Westport or Takaka. I really love the west coast of NZSI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac_Maddog88 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Voted for KBLI, Bellingham. Please ORBX, this airport is right near KORS and such airports, it would be a fantastic place to fly regional jets out of when I'm not really in the mood for Vancouver! Also voted for Idaho Falls and Perth. Idaho falls would be a great flight from KJAC or KBZN, and Perth is very much needed in this current day..

Ben77 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Ah yes, my mistake Stewart, Klamath Falls is in Oregon. I've not been there yet but next time I travel to the US I plan on exploring the PNW more, beautiful part of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac_Maddog88 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 VANCOUVER ISLAND !!!!!! FSDreamteam already did KTVL, it's a great airport and fits in perfectly with ORBX PNW. You'd just have to put it above the ORBX PNW in your scenery library. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jabble Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 When did FSDreamteam do LakeTahoe? Must have been since the continental drift moved Tahoe to Vancouver Island OK, I think he means FSDT's CYVR, though that's on the mainland, not Vancouver Island. FWIW Jon Patch did an excellent CYYJ, though I'm not aware of much else on the island in terms of payware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vee One Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I voted all the big airports: Auckland intl, Wellington, Christchurch, Perth intl, Adelaide intl, Darwin, Calgary (very much needed) and Edmonton in Canada and some others like Mount Cook airport etc...

rammsteinfan Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 If there are 2 airports I would love to see in ORBX quality then it would be KPAE/KBFI. Further more Calgary, van Nyus and to make it interesting when P3D v3 x64 will be out Mojave with a lot of static airplanes waiting for the scrap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxreds19 Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I guess I'm more into the bigger airports with commercial service, but I added some GA airports as well. Still saving 4 votes for later. Sandpoint, ID (KSZT) - the most beautiful place you've never heard of (just google pictures). Beach, Lake, Small town, Mountains, Ski Resort, home of the Quest Kodiak company. Spokane, WA (KGEG) - would go great along with SFF and city of Spokane. GEG is the commercial airport for large area of Washington and Northern Idaho. Lewiston, ID (KLWS) - amazing place with the Snake and Clearwater rivers converging along with a 2000 foot mountain/hill overlooking the city. Mostly GA, but has some Delta Connection to/from SLC and Horizon Q400s. Couer d'Alene, ID (KCOE) - busy GA airport in Northern Idaho. Coeur d'Alene is amazing place with lake and mountains surrounding it. Boise, ID (KBOI) - commercial airport that is in need of a scenery Whittier, AK (PAWR) - small GA airport (1700 ft runway I think) right next to a lake with mountains surrounding it. Prettiest place I visited in Alaska Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gb_ftx Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Yes me too. Ozx have done some brilliant little airports throughout Australia. I am hopeful these will be possible to install into P3D2 I've installed most of them in P3DV2.5 and they all seem to work. Their not just 100% guaranteed. Their so good though it's worth the risk. Gotta be time for a Darwin and Gold Coast Orbx AU airport at least (my vote). gb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Copp Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I'm nostalgic for some of the old Richard Goldstein and Bob Bernstein creations, so I voted for Strom, Elma, Forks, Tacoma and the like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxreds19 Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 A beautiful place, I agree, but I didn't think there was much at the airfield other than a small gravel strip. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. No, you are correct. Not much other than a landing strip at the airfield, but if the surrounding area was including I think it could make up for the simple airstrip. I wouldn't be surprised if it's too small for them to consider though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecureuil Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I used up all my votes already, but may I suggest Nelson, BC. Great place to visit as it's only a short walk into town. Ski resort in winter, boating in the summer, challenging approach. Would go well along with Sandpoint, Idaho as we also have Boundary Co. in that area.

5055100597 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I put in votes for California. Santa Paula (KSZP) is an awesome small GA airport (like a lot of PNW airports done), Camarillo (KCMA), Flabob (KRIR) is the site of EAA Chapter 1, Watsonville (KWVI), Truckee Tahoe Airport (KTRK) is a larger airport in the North of Lake Tahoe, Santa Ynez (KIZA), and Crystal Airport (46CN) is a neat desert gliderport.
