Description
Snettisham Alaska is located only a few miles southeast of Junea, and a short hop from my previous scenery, Excursion Inlet. The dirt runway sticks out into the water, and the approach can be dangerous in low visability as the airport sits at the end of a long glacial bay with a zig-zagging inlet bordered pertruding high cliffs and mountainsides.
Airport code is 7AK2
Features
- Imported new high quality ground objects (Objects are in seperate scenery folders, so you can choose which ones you want to delete to save space. For highest quality, keep them all.)
- Detailed rock jetty added under approach for RWY 33, previously underwater
- Added a start position on the apron, previously none
- Added seaplane dock, runway, and base like real Snettisham
- Added Snettisham Hydroelectric Dam up the valley
- Fixed lower hydroelectric plant with new buildings, objects and terrain fixes.
- All buildings replaced in area
- Replaced all of the default plant type (bushes) to a more accurate conifer pines all around the area. Trees now cover the area nearby with no imagery that is just green.
- Reworked lakes, shores and rivers. No more clunky bare shore edges along the approach.
- And more!

Has anyone made Palmer airport in Alaska?

Not that I am aware of, might be nice to do! I could import some C-119 and DC-3 alongside some custom stuff for Blue River Aviation. Would take a while though

That would be awesome and i need to learn how to make a scenery to contribute to the community.

Finally, got the files, working right. Unconventional to load, instead of just putting the complete file, in Community. Worked great, excellent detail, thanks, for your help and scenery. I made a video, to showcase your great workmanship and https://youtu.be/AEyMKvfZPj8

This never shows up, even when you put in the 2 scenery libraries. Even when you move the file to my community folder.

Did you drag the main folder or did you drag the actual scenery package folders? I assume since you said you dragged a singular "file" and it won't work, you uncompressed and dropped the main "Snettisham Hydroelectric Project" folder into Community, but you need to drag all 5 sub folders that have the typical AAA-BBB-CCC scenery name structure, in this case, 'nassault-xxx', and put them in Community.

Thanks glad you are enjoying these! I always plan on making more Alaskan airfields more detailed! I definitely like creating that foggy, damp and wet feeling Alaska seems to have. Now to add the mosquitos...
