To be honest, I haven't had a chance to fly in/out of it yet, but if it's by ORBX, you know it's a quality piece of work.

If you have PNW, make sure you apply the latest patch (.004) for PNW before installing.

If you don't have PNW, the latest PNW DEMO includes this payware quality airport.

Thanks for the heads-up been waiting for this one but was busy this week and missed the release.

As usual it is terrific, not just the airport but the great detail added for the area around the airport, they did a great job capturing the look of the WA coast peninsula shallow protected waters (I vacation just a few miles away in Long Beach each year).

I just took my first flight there and really enjoyed it, some screenies here:

Still amazed that they provide this level of stuff for free, I enjoy this one so much that I'm going to go reward them by buying one of the remaining PNW airports I don't own yet (Cushman most likely).

Don't you need PNW for that?

Yes it is a freeware enhanced airport located in the PNW NA Blue scenery and it needs it for the surrounding areas and elevations to work correctly, but they also made it part of the PNW Demo 2.0 so you can fly in it as part of the FTX unlimited time demo, well worth to check out if nothing more than just to see the cool way they worked the shorelines and surface under the water, very realistic looking IMHO.

THX for the heads up, I missed this one too, as the 004 patch.

Outstanding work, love the blinking buoys too.
