Does the Jumbolair airstrip near Ocala, Florida exist in the game? I can't find it by that name, wondering if it is listed under something different. thanks.

Jumbolair, the private community that Travolta now lives in. Try www.jumbolair.com, all the info is there. And i just found the answer, its called "Greystone", and the call sign is "17FL".

I think that there was a scenery made for it a little while ago. I saw someone post screenshots on another forum.

Go to flightsim.com , search files, type John Travolta. There will be 4 files. Jumbolair File is (dbwgrs05.zip)
If you want his airplane there is a repaint there (707jt.zip) (Do not download the 707 there) Go to simufly.com.
(1) Plane= Quantas B707-138B-1961 (For Fs2004)
(2) Sound= ba JT3C-6
(3) Effects= 707 Smoke V2

I went to simufly.com and the only downloads I can see is the repaints.
I can't find the "Quantas B707-138B-1961" nor any ba JT3C-6 sound and the smoke effect.

When you go to simufly ,click the plane or here. It will open to another page. The top of the page is the alphabet , each one opens to a different Airlines. Click on Q , then Quantas.
The other files are under the alphabet.
Sorry I didnt explain it better.

BTW Sorry about the U. When you get as old as I am, the letters start to look blurry.

Interesting stuff ... travolta used to live and fly out of private SPRUCE CREEK in south Daytona along with other dignitaries ie nascars mark martin. their "garages" were hangars atached to the homes. Tom Cruise stayed at travoltas as he filmed "DAYS OF THUNDER"
My son, an electrician, often sees these guys around SPRUCE
CREEK as he works. Travolta used to frequent OLIVE GARDEN RESTAURANT at Daytona International. Are we sure he moved?
JUMBOLAIR is new to me, but with JT being qualified in everything that flies the name makes sense ...except that the 17F lists only 7400' in the sim. Daytona int has 10,500'

I searched and found this. He did have a home in a fly-in community near Daytona. He was sued by neighbours who claimed his jets were too big and noisy for their facility. He now has a home in a fly-in community named Jumbolair Estates just north of Ocala.Florida. He also has homes in California,Hawaii and Maine.
