Long Lake Helms Seaplane Base (FAA LID: NY9) is a privately owned, public use seaplane based on Long Lake in the Town of Long Lake, Hamilton County, New York, United States.
Long Lake Helms Seaplane Base resides at elevation of 1,629 feet (497 m) above mean sea level. It has one seaplane landing area designated NE/SW with a water surface measuring 15,000 by 1,500 feet (4,572 x 457 m).
For the 12-month period ending September 15, 2011, the airport had 2,200 aircraft operations, an average of 183 per month: 54.5% general aviation and 45.5% air taxi. At that time there were three single-engine aircraft based at this airport.
This airstrip is my first seaplane base and my first work containing about two miles of shoreline. I will be updating this randomly as it is still a work in progress. I did think it was done well enough to release. Other sceneries of this area only contain shoreline advancements along the lake. This contains a seaplane base for anyone interested in flying seaplanes from the heart of the Adirondack Mountains in NY.
Disclaimer:
I did not create the models, assets, and any libraries used in the creation of this airstrip/airport. A big thank you to the 3D artists that made these models available for us to use for free!
If you have downloaded some of my previous sceneries, you should be ok, but just double check and make sure the libraries are up to date; and then replace the older version.
Installation:
Just unzip into your community folder, or if you use addons linker just link it from wherever you have installed your scenery.
Very Important: You need to have the following libraries for the sceneries to display correctly, I know its alot and a big inconvenience, but it will be worth it as many scenery developers use them, be sure to check back on them for updates.
