January 7, 201313 yr Van Nuys is my home base. I am anxiously awaiting an Aerosoft version too. There is another freeware developer with a very good track record who is also working on a VNY . In the meantime John B. Loney has a pretty good version with actual signage for the major FBO's (at least circa 2007) kvny_v1.zip Slim
January 7, 201313 yr Have a screenshot? My home airport has been KSNA for years...maybe a 20 minute flight. I never flew into it until today. Certainly a great jump off point for a single over to KSBA and I seem to be trying to edge further north. I can't say I really care for any of the MegasceneryX airport renditions...a bit too blocky and generic. I like the rest of it though and their ground resolution is as good as it gets.

January 7, 201313 yr I can't say I really care for any of the MegasceneryX airport renditions...a bit too blocky and generic. I think they're just default FSX with some relocation (and perhaps custom flattens) done to match their photo and mesh, aren't they? Scott
January 7, 201313 yr Author I can't see what your scenery looks like, Ryan, but I parked myself on VNY Rwy 34 and took this shot of MegasceneryX Socal's rendition. Yeah they changed the runway texture and probably some signage... which is all I did with some other minor things.. In FSX default there's taxiways called "F1" and "G1" etc etc... I've just changed them to read what's on the AFD. | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |
January 8, 201313 yr One Six Right....love that Documentary. Have it on my ipad, probably watch it 3 or 4 times a year. That documentary was awesome. Such a great thing to watch, i've seen it 2 or 3 times now Van Nuys has turned from an airport built for purpose into an airport built for those who love the skies.... and still some purpose in there too haha
January 8, 201313 yr One Six Right....love that Documentary. Have it on my ipad, probably watch it 3 or 4 times a year. LOL...great vid. Brings back a lot of memories. Staring at the seat to my right thinking "holy crap" and, oddly, not having even the slightest bit of fear about it...just the realisation and then exhilaration and then just flying the plane. Wow. Nice memories. Gregg Seipp "A good landing is when you can walk away from the airplane. A great landing is when you can reuse it." i9 64GB RAM, GTX-5090
January 8, 201313 yr Have a screenshot? I don't have a screenshot for John Loney's scenery. I am currently using US Cities X-LA and it uses a different mesh but Loney's is worth the download if you are using the default FSX VNY currently. It's quite detailed. Slim
