Description
BACKGROUND
Plockton arose as one of the Operation Military Aid to the Community (OPMAC) airstrips built by the Royal Engineers during the 1960s and early 1970s. No airline or other flying establishment has ever actually resided here since then but this normally unmanned airfield sees a steady stream of private visitors landing in light aircraft, microlights and helicopters in connection with tourism in the area.

Thank you very much for downloading this scenery pack (if you do), I have spent a while on this little airstip because it is at the heart of the beauty that is Scotland and I wanted to make this barren airstrip vibrant again.
This is the first version, I will be improving over time but thank you for checking out my project and any feedback would be amazing.

What a fantastic piece of scenery Plockton airstrip is, congratulations! One thing I have noticed since update 11 are strange flashing geometric shapes around the boats in the small bay area. Hope it can be fixed as this is a wonderful package. Thanks again.

Great Airstrip, Great Mod. Are you able to reduce fauna, trees? theres to much. There isnt trees at the end of both runways- more bushes. Makes a tricky tactical; approach onto the runway. Thanks :)

Very nice little strip, however, you are unable to ground start from the strip, doesn't seem to matter what starting slot you pick, you are always airborne.
