October 17, 20232 yr Quite close from being released as freeware. If you want to appreciate the work done, please have a look of KHQM in MSFS today without this future freeware 😉 Bowerman after the rain. FedEX building: The raw of lonely hangars: The local authorities promotes Bowerman airfield as the only-capable-jet airport of the area, so I put a Citation in an opened hangar. Fake Chevron sign.: Lana’s Cafe recreation. Not on the field since 2014. But was in the Orbx scenery: Pilot’s lounge... and bikes for free: The bay of Grays Harbor National Wildlife Refuge behind the airfield, finally clear of water: Improvement of the visual short final runway 24 with the pier of the wood factory (Willis Enterprises) and the treatment plant: Edited October 17, 20232 yr by vbazillio Vincent B.

October 18, 20232 yr That's excellent news, great to hear another old-time classic is coming back to life! 🙂 If you've set your sights upon the PNW region now, another interesting place that desperately needs this kind of treatment is KCLM (Port Angeles / William R. Fairchild International). The airport is an excellent starting point for flights over the Olympic Peninsula (in fact, KHQM > KCLM is a rather nice scenic route). The webcams seem to be working fine, so if you're considering another project in this area, please have a look... 😉 EDIT: They even have a short overview on the airport webpage that might be useful.

October 20, 20232 yr Just wonderful work, thanks for the dedication...to this unique airport ...! Quite familiar with the Orbx's version in the past...including the Lana's Cafe ...🙂 ...which you've nicely recreated here...
October 20, 20232 yr Author After one week of work, approximately 30 hours on the MSFS Scenery Editor, v1.0 is released, free to download: https://flightsim.to/file/62459/bowerman-airport-vintage-edition-khqm Vincent B.

October 21, 20232 yr Thanks for the completion news, and it looks great...people can now fly in.... [I believe the Rwy is good for GA and Charters, but I recall making the mistake of landing a (somewhat big) Jetliner once....🙂 ...]
October 21, 20232 yr I've enjoyed KHQM since it first appeared as an ORBX freebie. Be nice too for it to "reappear" for p3dV6. Great fantasy for a Saturday, lol. This is a great place to base your Black Square aircraft out of.
October 21, 20232 yr Magnificent work, Vincent, and it is so good Lana´s Cafe has reopened now (at least virtually...)!
