Browse freeware remote airstrip scenery add-ons for MSFS 2020 and 2024. Community-built isolated strips across Idaho, the Canadian Arctic, New Zealand, Papua and beyond. Browse 183 addons uploaded by our community.
This section collects freeware remote airstrip scenery add-ons for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and 2024, created by community developers from around the world. Remote airstrips are isolated landing sites far removed from any urban infrastructure — dirt tracks carved into valleys, gravel bars beside glacial rivers, high-altitude meadows, Arctic community strips, and jungle clearings that connect otherwise unreachable settlements to the rest of the world. These locations represent some of the most authentic and demanding flying experiences available in the simulator, requiring careful weight and fuel planning, precise short-field technique, and an intimate knowledge of the surrounding terrain. Community add-ons recreate real-world remote strips across Idaho, British Columbia, the Canadian Arctic, New Zealand's South Island, Papua, Central America, and beyond, typically featuring accurate surface types, custom vegetation, terrain shaping, and ambient objects that make each location feel genuinely isolated and lived-in. All add-ons are free to download.
