A. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
It's Taria airstrip (code ICAO: WATI /fict/) which is located in Mamberamo Ulu, Papua plateu, Indonesia. The airport has ca. grass/dirt airstrip, one medium parking spot and one large cargo ramp. There are no services or ground crews available there. I added custom sat image (Bing one) in which I corrected clouds that covered major part of the strip. I added a small military vibe to the as the cargo ramp is operated under an Indonesian military and consequently the airstrip is guarded by them. The airport has very limited lighting so it does operate only during day hours.

Data:
Runway 03/21, 2814x55 ft (858x17m), grass/dirt
The clearing width - ca.250ft/75m
Elevation: 302ft/98m msl
ICAO code: WATI (fictional)
IATA code: none
FAA code: none

B. FUTURE PLANS

I may try to enhance details in the village area if time or other plans permits.

C. KNOWN BUGS / IMPERFECTIONS
Bugs - none that I know of. Imperfections - many, you need to judge by yourself.

G. NOTES
a/ This is my second scenery. I am trying to improve my skills of scenery making in small steps. Please, be nice with me. 
b/ Obviously, it's likely that this location looks different in reality. I made it based only on two pictures of the location I was able to find in the internet, and based on Bing sat images on which a major part of the strip was covered with clouds. Thus, there's a sort of artistic liberty taken in this creation.
c/ I used two popular 3rd party libraries to enhance the look and feel of the scenery. The scenery may work without them but at the cost of degraded quality.
