Well this is cool. Absolutely ridiculous airport.

I saw the video at the end of this post and had to find it in the sim. That's one heck of an airfield. Always neat when you taxi to the runway via sidewalk Alpha, then take off on what is essentially a sledding hill in the middle of a steep-sided and narrow valley. Oh and with a big building just barely off to the right at the end of the runway, and a nice clump of pine trees uncomfortably close to it on the other side. 

Private airfield that isn't even, that I could find, technically registered as an airfield, so of course it's not in MSFS.

Only it is! Start at the Bolzano, Italy airport (LIPB), and head straight north. You'll see a narrow valley just across the city from the airport. Fly up that valley for a little while and you'll see the airfield. Unfortunately, the scenery AI stuck a creek a little too far into the top of the strip, so you can land (barely) but taking off will be challenging if you're in a turboprop because getting too close to the tiny little rivulet of water will make the sim register a crash, so your takeoff distance isn't as long as it should be. But I suspect someone will come along and tweak it, because it was a (freeware I think) addon in FSX/p3d.

That is just ridiculous!

This strip has been a favourite for a while with various versions made for P3Dv5, XPlane  and MSFS 2020

Oh no! I absolutely love it!

It’s an old video that we’ve seen before, the aerodrome is very well known and is one of the most dangerous. Nothing new.
From memory there is a version for FSX.

Thats awesome. This is why I would love to see this aircraft in MSFS.   Get in to some ridiculously small airfields/ tiny grass strips.  The PW PT6A engine is a beast  for that aircraft

Nothing new for you, perhaps.

What?  for MSFS 2020?  Where?

I would love the Pilatus, but until then I would give it a try in the TBM!  😁

I like to trick airline passengers into thinking I have my own swimming pool in my back yard by painting a large blue rectangle on my patio.

You want a short landing strip?

How about this one... ;)

I would model it — if only I could find it on a map!

That's for FSX/P3d, not '2020.
