Description
Rangeview airstrip has been rebuilt from the ground up. The scenery features custom gravel textures, overhauled tree placement and roads in the vicinity of the airstrip. Several nearby lakes have also been overhauled, adding water to and flattening their surface. A nearby unlisted airstrip has also been included in this package!
Full features include:
- Custom gravel textures.
- Overhauled tree placement in the vicinity of the airstrip.
- Reworked road placement around the airstrip.
- Adds water to and flattens several lakes in the area.
- Adds a handful of clutter models and vegetation around the area.
- Includes the challenging, unlisted airstrip on Scotty Lake.
Requirements
Installation
The included "esd-airport-0aa5-rangeview" folder should be placed into your MSFS "Packages\Community" folder. The scenery will load the next time you start Microsoft Flight Simulator.

Only major issue is the pond around mid-field, otherwise this scenery works well!

I'm not sure if that's still the case as I haven't tested it since. All the other packages should be fine though, unless there was a regression.

Either the AirportServices folder or the LivingWorld_Config folders are causing mod add-ons such as FBWA320 and the PMDG B737 to not have service vehicles appear. It will also cause entire airports to no longer have tugs available when the AI calls for them. I have found several sceneries with these folders and when they are removed, all airport services for these mods return and AI aircraf5t are again able to call for pushback. Not sure if anything can be done about this besides removing the scenery. I'll try removing only the particular folders mentioned next and see if that helps.
(I am posting this under any sceneries I find that have these folders. Several of yours have them.)

Hello,
LivingWorld configs would likely be what causes this issue. LivingWorld affects an entire region. AirportServices only affect a single airport if done properly, using the ICAO for the sub folder. If one uses "AirportServices\Shared" for the directory, then that likely will cause conflicts.

Nicely done. This is literally where I live. The runway in real life is in a lot worse shape. It's not maintained at all, it has pot holes that will send your plane up about 5-10 feet, and it's owned by the biggest lunatic ever. Here's a request, could you do Keyes Point (QQB)? It has two runways, one small strip at the end of the point, and a larger one to the more northern part. It's where I grew up and the base game did a terrible job representing it.

Completely missed this, sorry! Didn't the airport just get a bunch of work done to it in the last couple years? Some more recent aerials showed a new parking area and what looked like a graded runway. Not sure when they were taken though..

The runway is graded in the summers usually around late May. It's known by everyone in Trapper Creek as an "emergency runway."
The last plane that has landed on this strip was a piper PA-22 about 2 years ago.
