UKJim 502 Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 Hi Guys, So the mrs chipped in and PNW is mine - also I am thinking about getin the Australia complete pack too (so much for scenery is too expensive hey its christmas lol) So these areas are HUGE and I was wondering; as I am pretty sad; I would like to have a lodge type 'home' in both regions that has an airstrip for small planes, so I can pretend to live there in my own virtual world hehe. So something with a runway (preferrably tarmac/concrete) and a house/lodge nearby to call my own If at all possible the location would be nice to be near the coast and also on the borders or a town and outback type scenery. Thought it would make a nice topic and maybe give people recommended airstrips to see based on the community opinions as the packs are stuffed with plenty of locations so narrowing them down by other peoples recommendations would help.

stu7708 244 Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 There's plenty to pick from in the PNW area, but I can't be more specific than that right now.. for some reason I don't have FSX installed at work As for the Australia scenery I'm not sure that it includes updated airports/airstrips. I think that's just the scenery leaving the airports as they were. But there's a great freeware add-on that works together with the ORBX auzzie region called OzX that takes care of that for you. Again I can't be more specific on a location that will suit your needs And if you get the australia package I can also recommend getting the freeware terrain mesh from the ORBX webpage since the package doesn't include a updated mesh. There's also a bunch of freeware airports for both the Australia and PNW area on that page you could check out. Link to post Share on other sites
brett 2,283 Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 Using the OPT to place scenery(ranger station makes a sweet place to hang your hat), you can make your own home away from home. Link to post Share on other sites
rob16584 42 Posted November 17, 2011 Report Share Posted November 17, 2011 If you buy the FTX AU scenery make sure that you download the OZx airstrips - they are fantastic and add '00's of little airstrips into the scenery. The downside is that they are not listed in the FSX menu finder. I do have a file with the whole lot on somewhere on an hard-drive that isn't hooked up to my PC. If I can get it working I can send you the file if needed Link to post Share on other sites
