From all the KAJO images on your website, it looks awesome, and since I live within 15-miles of KAJO, it would complement my stable of Southern California airports, and would be great to fly between KAJO, KAVX, KRIV, KCNO, KSAN , and KSNA. It is worth 5-cups of coffee to me. I thank you in advance for your response.

You need to activate these 2 folders in your Community. Keep the name "zzz-vbcorp-airport-kajo-corona". MSFS2020 user only: you can ignore the "zzz-vbcorp-airport-kajo-corona" folder.
