Sometimes one should look at the charts first.
In FSEconomy I had a 2 Pax job from KUIL to S16, which FSE measured as a small airport (FSE works with the FS9 database of airports, the size of an airport is measured through the length of the runways, which at times ends in strange results), then I had 5 PAXs from S16 to KBFI.
On the first leg, ATC led me past S16 and then, nothing. So I cancelled IFR and turned around. At the position of S16, nothing, a beach. I did several passes (fuel was getting low already) and finally found a curved strip on the beach. Full flaps and the slowest possible approach. Phew! Definately not an airport, but a bloody strip on the beach, scenery is ORBX.

Some from the last days:
My PC12 at the gate at EDXW (Westerland) on Sylt, the German island of the Rich
At EDHK Kiel Holtenau, my "home", as it is only 25 km from here
Just landed at EDDT Berlin Tegel in my Jetstream
Taxi to the gates
After a short stay, ready to take off back to EDDK Köln-Bonn. It is a warm evening and I opened the throttle a little to fast, EGT is critical, thankfully no damage to the engines.
Climbing and turning

My newest scenery
Heligoland, the only German Highseas island, in the background Düne (Dune), where the small airport is located. It`s also called "Fusel-Felsen (roughly translated to booze-rock) `cause you still can buy duty-free alcohol ans such. That`s why several small passenger-ships are going there every day. Heligoland was used as a practice-target by the RAF after WWII btw. and finally the Brits tried o totally blow the island up, as it was regarded as a military threat. It is said one of the strongest non-nuclear explosions happened there.
Düne with the "airport"
btw. the scenery is part of one 20 % sale of Aerosoft running this weekend.

I purchased ORBX CRM a few weeks ago and again, I`m very pleased, I love their stuff.
Currently I`m transferring a C-130 from Aussie to Europe in FSEconomy and having reached the Middle East, I was a little bored flying over endless deserts (however, flying over the Himalaya was impressive even without addons, really the roof of the world, flying at FL240 and seeing mountain tops pass only a few hundred ft. below was thrilling, THX for good weather). So I decided to pick up my Piper Cheyenne I I have based in ORBX land for a ride, KBFI -> S62. There is the Silverwood Amusement Park. 2 x 2 PAX, around 2900 v$, not bad.
Flying obviously over agricultural used land
Into the mountains, notice the nice weather front ahead (REX2 OD)
On final. Thankfully the bad weather stayed to the right as no ILS was available.
I love these ORBX guys, there really was a Rollercoaster and stuff at the airport. Great!
What I noticed with ORBX however, their stuff seems to be a out of scale, or my DA Piper, it`s way to huge compared to cars, hangars etc.
