Description
Agua Dulce Airpark (ICAO: L70) is a small public-use airport located 35 nm north of Los Angeles. Also known as Agua Dulce Airport, it has one single asphalt paved runway (4/22) measuring 4,600 x 50 ft (1,402 x 15 m). No jet traffic permitted. No ATC, use unicom 122.8, no IFR dep/app and no night operations. But self service fuel is available (only 100LL) and plenty of picnic tables, clean grass and clean bathrooms;) Expect the flight a little bumpy because of the surrounding terrain. It's a challenging approach on gusty days.
If you want to play as-real-as-it-gets : Agua Dulce airport is open to the public... when there are no filming activities, for example "Ford vs Ferrari" in 2019 or the final act of the TV series "Bones". The historic Star Trek movie site "Vasquez Rocks" is just 3nm South-East of the field, south of freeway 14.

Remark for MSFS2024
Starting from version 2.0, this scenery is at least compatible with MSFS2024 (until further notice). It's not perfect and your feedback are welcome! Please use the comment section. I'll do my best to catch-up. Thank you.
Author's note
As for all of my MSFS mod, this small scenery is made from a pilot-eyes perspective. The scenery is inspired by aerial views from Bing and Google maps. It's a mix between the satellite imagery displayed from MSFS and more accurate data found on Internet. I did my best based on online video and online pictures available. Hundreds of objects have been added to the default scenery to make in more live and bring a touch of an active area. If you have local pictures to help being more accurate, please let me know!

However, I have had a problem with this scenery.
First, you should know that I am flying in 2024 and have both relevant folders installed in Addons Linker. According to flightsim.to my download is up-to-date.
I also never use ATC (for shame) and have all relevant options turned off.
Immediately after installing Agua Dulce I started to receive very frequent on-screen ATC messages originating from KSNS (Salinas Muni - there is payware for this airport but I don't have it). These messages would pop up as far north as San Francisco and as far south as northern greater Los Angeles
I disabled Agua Dulce in Addons Linker. The messages stopped.
I then opened vbcorp-airport-l70-agua-dulce and noticed a subfolder Airportservices.
I removed it, and re-enabled Agua Dulce. The messages again stopped, but Agua Dulce seems to be perfectly usable without Airportservices.
I have no idea what's going on. The relevant file, Services.spb, contains no information that I'm meant to be able to read.
I hope this information is more useful than frustrating.
Incidentally, my interest in Agua Dulce stems from having watched the 1950s TV series Whirlybirds (which starred, among others, a Bell 47 - well, actually two, a 47 G and a 47J) as a child when it was first broadcast in Britain. Two airfields were used in this series, one in Simi Valley and one in San Fernando and both, after getting on for seventy years, closed and buried in suburbia.
So I thought Agua Dulce might make a nice alternative base for my Flyinside Bell 47G.

Excellent work, as always!
By the way, I have two windsocks together (one red and white, and the other one orange). But in your pictures (up in this very page), I can see just one windsock. I thought I had installed a conflicting add-on, but I haven't! That's weird!

I thought it was an add-on, but this time I played the sim with no add-ons whatsoever (except L70, of course).
MSFS version: SU2 Update Beta 1.4.9.0
The duplicate windsocks are there.

Everything is ok now.
I closed the sim, and then I started MS2024. This time I went to L70 and the planes were with its textures!

Thank you for this update!
By the way, some of the planes parked at the airport appear with no texture (pink color).
Greetings
