Goatman24 Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 I was surprised the airport wasn't on the island in FSX. I haven't looked to see if there is a download somewhere. Just curious why it's left out. Mitch I was born on the North Coast, where they coined the phrase that they still call Rock-n-Roll!

W2DR Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 There is no airport on St. John's Island. Are you looking for the Cruz Bay seaplane base?

Goatman24 Posted December 1, 2022 Author Share Posted December 1, 2022 Thanks guys. I didn't realize there wasn't a large airport on the island. Not much data on the one listed on the last reply. Must be pretty small. Thanks again. Mitch I was born on the North Coast, where they coined the phrase that they still call Rock-n-Roll!

Dwaffler Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 In putting in the coordinates listed on the webpage, I wouldn't call it much of an airport, maybe a flat place for an airplane to land. Try putting this coordinate ( 18.3283 -64.7475 ) into Google Maps and see what it shows :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toriu Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 I lived and worked in Tortola BVI for about 15 years, Tortola is the next island east of St John. The only way to get there was by boat.

Goatman24 Posted December 3, 2022 Author Share Posted December 3, 2022 We have some friends that had invited us to go down there with them last year. They absolutely love it. The only flying I will do anymore is on my flight sim. Got fed up with all the hassles and stress at the airports. Being a diabetic doesn't help.

CRJ_simpilot Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 Do what I do. I have flown around the world (in the Sim) five or more times now and no matter where I go I always just find someone's addon for that airport and install it prior to going there. That way it's upgraded straight away and over time my Sim will become populated with upgraded airports. You'd be surprised at how good some of the free airport upgrades are. Some need work however so after I land and see the airport I pull up Airport Design Editor (ADE) and edit what needs to be edited. 8 out of 10 times it's the lighting. Like, why are blue taxiway lights leading all the way to the ramp? I highly doubt they light up the ramp with taxi lights. At least to my recollection. Been a while since I've been to an airport in real life at night. OOM errors? Read this. What the squawk? An awesome weather website with oodles of Info. and options. Wile E. Coyote would be impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
