    Attached is my interpretation of E16 San Martin Airport for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. Ive redone most aspects of this airport.  A few things are still causing me a headache, like the taxi lights on teh runway, lol.  Recently included the Heliport though not to exact specs.

    I used the objects that came with the stock game as well as the freely available Emerald Objects Library.

    Update 03jan26:  For some reason I can no longer load this Airport scenery and as such can no longer edit it.  Ive long planned another full update to this Airport as it was my first and my skills are honed to a much sharper degree than back then.  Ill guess the first couple months of 2026.

    Have a great flight.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    This is the airport I first flew back in 1993 and recieved my SEL here (2 genes avaiation) so it has special memories for me.  The REASON I got my SEL was because MS Flight Sim 4 was so terrible, lol. MSFS24 in VR is what I dreamed about back then.
