    Visalia Municipal Airport, Visalia CA USA - KVIS V2.1 - Image 1

    Description

    As part of my ongoing mission to fill out the FEDEX destination portfolio, I've decided to work on a few FEDEX FEEDER shipping center airports.  First in line is Visalia Municipal in Visalia CA, located in central California near the foothills of the Sierra Nevadas.  FEDEX has a shipping center located on the north side of the field.  WestAir (call sign PAC VALLEY) flies C208 Caravans between here and Ontario multiple times per day.  FYI, I also have modeled Ontario with the full FEDEX center and ramp, located here:

    Additionally, WestAir flies from Ontario to Inyokern CA and Santa Barbara CA, which has been updated by fellow flightsim.to contributors, located here:

    Included in this package are hand crafted blender models of the FEDEX shipping center, the GA FBO and the commercial passenger "terminal".  Each contain PBR textures.  Also included are new taxiway network, taxiway signs, parking spots, perimeter fencing, night lighting and various generic asset buildings and clutter throughout.

    V2.1 - Small fixes throughout airfield and surrounding area.

    V2.0 - Made compatible with MSFS2024.  Fixed foliage issues in immediate area.  Download and install for MSFS2020 and MSFS2024.

    V1.1 - Added additional lighting throughout the field.  Fixed emissive texture error at the FEDEX ramp.  Added animated flags near main terminal building.

    V1.0.1 - Completed the fence network around the perimeter

    Is it possible to have an ATC option to taxi to the FEDEX ramp after landing?

    Say Intentions AI typically has these spots marked. For example, I can fly into KDAL and ask for taxi to Signature.

    I would really rather not use Say Intentions. My question was just in general, not this specific airport.

    This looks good.
    West Air flies between Visalia and Oakland (KOAK). The only time a Caravan from ONT would go there is for some weird ad hoc flight that Fed Ex wanted. In the four years I flew for West Air, I think I've only seen it happen twice?

    Awesome!! Visalia's the city where I live. I trained for my PPL at Western Air FBO, thanks so much for creating this scenery.

    Thanks so much for this airport. This is the town where many of NAS Lemoore's long term Naval sailors (Officer/Enlisted) and base employee's live. Instead of living on base this is one of the nicer towns with a 45 minute commute to work. Go the opposite way and you have Sequoia National Park. Some of my friends who were pilots rented planes out of this airport when I was stationed at Lemoore. Did allot of joyride flights out of this airport. When you think of this base think of the super base NAS Lemoore. I asked 'vbazillio' to do this but you beat him to the punch.

    Well done! I did start it but switch to something different. Glad you make it. Attention to FedEX facilities is appreciated ;)

    Did I miss something (regarding the perimeter fence) ? : https://i.imgur.com/OOIEbHW.jpeg

    Ah shoot... I forgot to finish that part of the fence network up. I'll swing back to that this week for clean up.
