I hope your glasses are working better than mine. Roll Eyes


I can see it OK if I squint a little. And I dont have a patch over one eye Grin Grin Just save it and blow it up in your Windows viewer. After I posted this I noticed that there is a list of all the locations in the read-me file. Also did you check the FSX on-board map to see if anything was indicated at that location?

I flip the patch in the up position for times like these. Roll Eyes
There is a much longer, more informative list in the readme, but except for the few at the bottom, they are all on the map and have ap codes. And none of those at the bottom fit.

Nav
GBS1  108.10 Glacier Bay SeaPlane Dock 1
GBS2  108.20 Glacier Bay SeaPlane Dock 2
GBS3  108.30  Glacier Bay SeaPlane Dock 3
GBS4  108.40  Glacier Bay SeaPlane Dock 4
GBS5  108.50  Glacier Bay SeaPlane Dock 5
GBS6  108.60  Glacier Bay SeaPlane Dock 6

GBS7  108.70  Base camp at approximately 5000 feet helicopter and ultra-light landing area

GBS8  108.80  Norther Lights Bar “Helicopter Only”  A place to rest, relax and watch ships and whales (if I could ever figure out how to do that)

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Patchz, on Flying Wild Alaska, Jim Tweto lands the Cessna 180 on a small strip with water on both ends. (a few times) Any idea what the location is? I can't remember where it was and I'd like to check it out in the sim for myself.

Like in the video Bob posted below your post, it's on the Unalakleet River, about 42 miles east of Unalakleet. This is on the Yukon River, a bit further south, about 58 miles ESE of Unalakleet.

And what you wanted to check out is exactly what I was doing when I found this by accident.  Grin

I tried to find it on my computer, with no success.
And although I have the Snow Dogs Tours packages installed, Grayling was still a totally default airport, no special SDT objects at all :/
Very strange. I took a look at the other packages from MoCat but unless I missed them, I didn't see anything related to Alaska appart of Snow Dog Tours, so I really have no idea about which package is enhancing your airfields  Sad

I'm sorry Stephane. I just did a comprehensive search of my scenery and it has to be Joe Taylor's Alaska Airports. I had forgotten that he used Snow Dog's Library. There are 8 parts and gives you about 80 airports in Alaska. I still don't know what field it is though.

I may be wrong but i think this island is called Eagle island on the Yukon river and its known as a checkpoint on the Iditarod sleddog race, maybe this is based on that field.

Cheers

That is highly probable, due to the number of dogsleds (the blue & red things) in front of the cabin in shot #3. Thanks for the info. Smiley

Edit: I just checked the Iditarod checkpoints and one leg is from Grayling to Eagle Island, the next Eagle Island to Kaltag, so that has to be it.

I don't know why Eagle Island is not identified on FSWidgets moving map or Google Maps. Mystery solved.  Grin
