About This File
FS2004 Scenery--Atka Airport (PAAK), in Aleutians, Alaska (AK), USA. Atka is near the western end of the Aleutian chain of islands in Alaska, around 100 miles east of Adak and 330 miles west of Dutch Harbor. The small town (population around 60 now, down from 90 only 5 years ago) is reliant on fishing. The airport is a mile or so north of the town on the east coast of the island, with a single runway of 4,500 feet of asphalt, and there are scheduled flights by Grant Aviation from Dutch Harbor (included in the AI provided with the post of Adak). The video does not show PAAK, but it is interesting and about a B24 that crashed on Atka Island. By Roger Wensley.
