Hemet Ryan KHMT freeware development started

Few days ago, I've started to work on (freeware) Hemet Ryan (KHMT) airfield in California. Here're early dev pics. If you want to support, click "I want this too" on the Scenery Request flightsim.to page : https://flightsim.to/requests/sceneries/1395/hemet-ryan-airport-cal-fire-base-khmt

Good to know! I was trying to figure that out 🙂 I actually grew up very near this airfield and spend some time there as a kid. Will be nice to see what @vbazillio can do with it.

Anything @vbazillio creates is a gem, I can't thank you enough for populating all of the smaller airport around SoCal, I actually use these as reference for my IRL flying in SoCal. Thanks again!

BREAKING NEWS 🙂 I just been warn a project is already more advanced and with better quality than mine. A talented developer shared with me his progress and what I saw is very-very impressive. It should be a payware and unfortunately no release date known. So will I stop my amateur'ish freeware work. I knew that some iconic objects would be missing from what I'm capable of. The few pics I saw from this other project is way better in quality.

The world is big. Missing airports for small GA are numerous in MSFS. And I have already started a new project

Understandable. I will look forward to your next project, whatever it may be 🙂

There are a number of great airports on the West Coast. Hope some day you will be able to get to KSMX. It gets pretty busy during the fire season with air tankers based there. This past weekend the Central Coast AirFest was held there. It included Warbirds as well as Air Force and Navy demonstration teams.

I’d vote for something in the Clear Lake area. It’s beautiful up there.

Thanks for your notice on this. I'm sure what ever your next project is will be another gem. Maybe Fallbrook (L18) someday?

It's on my list, but this one is tricky for me (https://flightsim.to/requests/sceneries/8999/fallbrook-airpark-l18) because it requires to be highly skilled on elevation as the field is on different levels.
