January 3, 200620 yr Author yep it's strange. All his scenery's have between 1000 and 2000 downloads but no one seems to wonder where the #### he's been gone?Mmm...:(Rob "Holland&Holland" de Vries http://www.emotipad.com/emoticons/Flying.gif"To go up, pull the stick back.

January 4, 200620 yr I'm pleased to report that I haven't been abducted guys! Scenery design is something of a winter hobby for me as my job keeps me pretty busy during the summer - and any spare time then is taken up with hiking and stuff.I'm finishing work now on Part 3 of my North Cascades series of bush airstrips. It adds 4 more devilish runways to the region, that I hope you'll all enjoy:BOX CANYON: This is what the place is called in real life. It's tucked away just past a dogleg in a narrow canyon. Then when you reach the airstrip, it's uphill - and curved. You can come in the other way too - initially on a 7 degree glideslope ILS, followed by a visual segment along a river - quite scary. My SF-260's brakes barely stop me before I go off the end (the eventual landing is downhill of course).RAPTOR'S AERIE: There are 2 short and narrow sloped airstrips here, at what I think is my highest elevation airfield in the series. A great launch point to thunder down at 200 knots to the North Fork Junction or Hermit's Lair strips below.BEAVER PASS: A longish airstrip, but then again, only half of it is usable because it's so darn bumpy! Pick your landing spot on Runway 32 with care.PIONEER STRIP: A simple, short, low elevation airstrip near Mt. Baker. U-turns in the canyon to land on Runway 23 are pretty fun!I have a busy weekend coming up, but will endeavour to upload it in a couple of weeks.All the best guys, and thanks for the concern!Happy New Year,JamesBy the way, I've changed my ISP, which is why my website was down, and I don't have the time to maintain it in the future. Just keep an eye on Avsim - my new stuff will always be there first.
January 4, 200620 yr Author Great to hear you're still alive and kicking!!!!Thanks for the heads up and I'm looking forward to hone my skill on your devilish scenery's!!Yihaaaaa!!!Rob "Holland&Holland" de Vries http://www.emotipad.com/emoticons/Flying.gif"To go up, pull the stick back.
