    Description

    Buy me a beer!

    21W Ranger Creek (v2.0)
    Greenwater, Washington, USA

    ======================
    This is my second version for MSFS.

    Hope you enjoy it as I did making this fantastic airstrip.
    ======================

    Small airstrip near to Seattle and Mount Rainier. Tricky to land and to takeoff due to surronding forests.

    Elevation:            2650 ft. / 808 m
    RW Dimensions: 2875 x 30 ft. / 876 x 9 m
    RW Lights:          None
    Departures:         RW 33 and climb down to the valley
                                RW 15 to a narrow valley

    Tip: Flyby the airport before landing to check wind socks and surface conditions. East wind sock is hard to spot when landing RW 33 because trees.

    ======================

    Features:

    -Custom objects: Vault toilets, road signs, fences & tar runway textures
    -Reviewed lots of real videos and photos to get the right atmosphere

    ======================

    Know bugs:

    -GA vehicles sometimes on runway or vehicles in parking spots, if you know how to avoid them, let me know.

    ======================

    Installation:

    Copy the "zalox-airport-21w-ranger-creek-washington" folder to your "Community" mods folder.

    I can't believe it works in v2024.

    Are you planning to bring this to MSFS 2024 too?

    Oh, I've been dreaming of this for nostalgia reasons.

    If he ain't, you ought to.

    I was thinking of maybe adding it to the list

    Thanks! One of my favorite airports. Would you consider doing 6S9 Stehekin State? It could use a little personal touch.

    If you've got 2024, I've done Stehekin - available on here.

    I remember this airfield. A very long time ago, in an other flight simulation ( flight unlimited 3 released in 1999) we could play a flight mission to find a bigfoot reported near the Rainier Mountain and he was in fact near the runway of Ranger Creek, screaming loud.

    Thanks for the scenery

    Whaaat? That was a mission in Flight Unlimited 3? That was my first sim and I had no idea! I missed out :(

    I think there are some trees on the runway after SU10. Anyone else?

    Great spot. Looks like it just needs a tweak.

    +1 for the trees on the runway.

    always a pleasurer to come back here and visit Ranger Creek, my goodness the Georender scenery 's was great and we all meet in Emma Field. Thx for the nice scenery

    So glad to see this field. I used to fly in and out of @georender 's version all time time back in the day. Thank you

    Great work. Thanks a lot. Waiting for the next ;-)

    very very nice, I really like the signs, I'm not skilled to model those :)
    as a minor suggestion, if you use a bit more of falloff on the aprons and cover the ugly automatically placed road along the runway this one will be better than the one I just posted.
    good work.

    I just saw you work, those campers are hand made? I need to replace my "trucks" with some custom-made in order to achieve a bit more realism out there.
    Thank you for your suggestions, I wil try to upload a new version with the changes you propose. Do you know what is the best way to hide the side road?

    over 5 years ago

    the campers are actually scaled down algecos sitting on an airport trailer with wheels :D I then added a small rotated tarp fence to simulate the extensible roof.
    to hide the side road you can use aprons, I solved it like that.
    now we have three different Ranger Creek implementations, lol.

    by the way, if you want the sources of my scenery I can forward them to you so you create a blend of them and it would be the best ranger creek scenery possible.
    I'm thinking about publishing them all on github.

    I will add some changes to the scenery and some fixes (like the apron to cover the road). And I will try to model a pair of campers to test how they fit in the scenery. If I need some advice I will DM to you. Thank you sir!
