The 6 Japanese Airports of the Japan World Update...

Featured Replies

You may have already visited these 6 airports of Japan that came bundled (free) with the Japan WU, but, after my (belated) installation of it this week and having visited the Nagasaki Airport (RJFU) in my previous 2 posts, if you are interested, please find here a few snapshots for each of the other 5 Airports (flown with the perennial favorite DC-3 in different liveries).

  1. Nagasaki Airport (RJFU) - Please see my previous posts.
  2. Kushiro Airport (RJCK) - 1st group of 4 Screenshots (1-4) below - With Sabena
  3. Hachijojima Airport (RJTH) - 2nd group of 4 Screenshots (5-8) below - With Lufthansa
  4. Kerama Airport (ROKR) - 3rd group of 4 Screenshots (9-12) below - With Qantas
  5. Shimojishima Airport (RORS) - 4th group of 4 Screenshots (13-16) below - With Swiss
  6. Suwanosejima Airport (RJX8) - (* Also see note below) - 5th group of 4 Screenshots (17-20) below - With Varig

(*) Note and caution:
Suwanosejima Airport (#6 above) feels almost like a Bush Strip but has an Asphalt Runway of 2,700 ft length. On retrospect, I should not have tried to lift off it with the bulky and cumbersome DC-3...especially with that precipitous drop right at the end of the Runway (see picture below). Somehow, I made it safely off the grounds, but a DC-3 is probably not advised, so, understanding that a (virtual) DC-3 Driver here is on a closed course....🙂..., you may simulate flight from this airport on your desktop, but under advisement...🙂...

For each successive group of 4 screenshots, the times of the day are set to (6am, 9am, 12noon, 3pm, and 6pm) respectively i.e., dawn to dusk.

Hope you enjoy this collection of images. Thanks for viewing...!!

Beautiful shots! 😉 

Those close-ups of the Swiss and Varig DC-3's show some loving attention to detail (and sunlight)!

Beautiful set, always like to see the DC-3 !

cheers 😉

I would only suggest to try different DC-3 liveries when you fly in Japan 😅. Nice shots!. To me, every japanese aiport is a fine piece of art.
