Making good progress with KTCY. Tracy is not very well-known outside of northern California, but this is a great GA location a short flight east of Oakland and KCCR/KLVK. It hosts popular fly-ins and has nice facilities, with a large ramp and city park right by the FBO.

As usual, the default MSFS data was all wrong, so I had to delete and redo the runways and taxiways. Terraforming is a little annoying, as there is a slope I can’t totally get rid of where the west hangars and water treatment plant are. The water treatment plant is a prominent feature at the actual airport, and MSFS AI put huge hangars there instead, so I did a rough low poly version of it to appear properly from the air.

Quite a bit more to do, like assigning parking, finishing out the taxi guidelines that vanished when I deleted the taxiways, and airfield/parking clutter.

First round of testing under way in 24 as well

I CFIed out of KLVK 12 years ago. Spent a lot of time at Tracy. Would you ever be willing to produce KLVK scenery?

No kidding? I used to fly into KLVK quite a bit about 8 years before you.

Sorry, my goal is to fill gaps and cover airports others haven't done. There is already a very thorough payware for KLVK by Spinoza...

Yep! I was at Ahart aviation before it went sideways.

Thanks for the heads up of the LVK already made looks very nice. Never knew it existed.

No worries, I love that scenery, one of their best IMO.

Wow I just read about the Ahart saga...what a mess! The guy who ran them into the ground apparently went AWOL and can't be found. ☹️

I used to drop into here in the old commodore Amiga Cessna with the Northern California scenery disk in the late 80’s

Wow no kidding! 😅 I remember the Amiga, I was a kid at the time and played Earl Weaver baseball on it.

Here is the Amiga scenery for the Bay Area

Ah wonderful 😀 Part graphics and pure imagination to fill in the gaps !

KTCY is ready to go, thanks a bunch
