I live in Johnstown, PA (KJST) I'd love to have this scenery in my flight sim. But unfortunately, I don't have MSFS 2020. I have FSX Steam Edition, is it at all possible to have this scenery compatible for FSX? " I'd truly appreciate it!

You are really doing a great job with this airport. Is there any cafe or restaurant on the premises or close by. Always on the lookout for another $100 Hamburger destination. I am in eastern Maryland on the near east side of the Chesapeake Bay. In the early 1990's I spent a good deal of time in nearby Windber consulting with a motor vehicle dealer.
My only suggestion would be to find some scenery object hangars with open doors. That would really single you airport out over most other MSFS addon airports. With all closed hangars most of the addons look lifeless except for populated static aircraft.

Unfortunately there hasn't been a restaurant at the field in a few years. The city has some pretty good restaurants though. KLBE which is about 30nm west of the field has DeNunzio's which is pretty consistently voted one of the best $100 hamburgers in the country

This is really great...looking forward to any other PA airports. I am originally from Clearfield KFIG and then State College/University Park KUNV.....would be fantastic if you could do either or both of those. I have numerous pictures if that would help you. Also, back in the "old days" I did renditions of both airports for X-Plane 11 and could send you those files if that would help.
Keep up the good work.

I can add both of those to my list to do once I get this airport to a semi-functional state 😃

Thanks a bunch!!!!! If you ever plan on doing custom models, I can get you reference pictures as I work here
3 years ago
That would be awesome! I do want to learn how to make custom buildings at some point so reference photos would be amazing. If you know the layout of the taxiway signs well, I would love some feedback on whether mine are close or not. I was just making a lot of assumptions of what would be on the signs
