Description
Homer is a small city in the Kenai Peninsula, Alaska. Resident population is about 5000 people.
The city is well known for sport fishing, fish related tourism and fish commerce. A fish economy.
The airport is an important transport node with a 6700ft runway and has LOC and RNAV published procedures. Ravn Alaska and Smokey Bay Air are two companies operating flights to Anchorage, Nanwalek, Port Graham and Seldovia (see my profile for related downloads, Anchorage is also available in flightsim.to, Nanwalek included in the game).
The airport runway, general layout, taxiways, painted lines and parking spots have been kept with stock implementation. I re-implemented from scratch all aprons, airport buildinds, beacon tower and placed the windsocks where they should be. Some minor adjustoments were made to elevation bumps in the taxiways, runway and aprons. Night lighting has been improved as well.
I also removed a beacon tower that was standing in the middle of Beluga Lake.
Required libraries (or better put, optional libraries but you will miss a lot of details)
* Windy Things
* Sergio Del Rosso asset pack
* Dave's 3D People
NOTE
this scenario was implemented using orbx alaska meh but, hopefully, it should be compatible with stock. I have no plans of implementing a separate version without that mesh.

Does Sergio Del Rosso asset pack means SDR Scenery Pack?https://flightsim.to/file/6072/sdr-scenery-pack-v1-0
Would be handy if you can provide links in the description or even add libs to dependencies in modify upload options.

Hello and thanks for this Scenery. I love it.
Since MSFS Update10 some Hangars are replaced with other Buildings. especially

Great work! Payware quality in my opinion. Thanks for the effort you put into this. I fly Alaska almost exclusively, (real world weather also) and this airport is a great addition to the sim.

thanks. Homer has become my new base for all things Alaska in MSFS2020.
I guess I might come back to this one for some improvement. Someday. :)

Suggestion: darken the runway surface so it is more visible in snow. I know that doesn't match the real world runway coloration but the sim doesn't clear runways of snow, it only clears surfaces based on its coloration (dark surfaces melt snow better). Here is an example where I changed the runway to a darker color - https://i.imgur.com/h2fc9OG.png Maybe a winter/summer version to be installed as needed with the summer having more realistic runway coloration
