Located 09 miles North of Gilbert, South Carolina on 7 acres of land just by Lake Murray which offers some stunning views on take off and landing SC14 - Shealy (Runway 12/30 - 1700 x 85 feet / 518 x 26 meters circa). I have spawned here earlier to test something in the sim (random choice) and I really liked the area so I have decided to work on this little airfield relatively quickly, there isn't much material available online as reference.
I personally love airfields / airports located by body of water so I had to give this place some love as the default is really nothing like the real place seen the aereal photos online. I have used information available online to adjust runway size, vegetations, bring back to view some of the side roads which may be useful for visual reference, added buildings and clutter. Not having any "on the ground" reference means I could not really make any custom buildings.
Landing here at sunset is really pretty so I have throw in a couple and their canoes camping by the field, with a fireplace as it is really a belivable location and it does help with those evening approaches with the sun just on the horizon.
As I fly also in VR the field has been tested in VR too!

If anyone is local and would like to send me some photos I would be happy to make custom models for this charismatic field!

Love the clutter. Looks great, but there is something wonky going on. The cabin textures of the frame and walls are flickering and i get massive stutters all over the scenery when panning the camera around.
