9th airport of the Namibian airstrips pack.
The Hoanib valley is a very arid area in the north of Namibia, close to the skeleton coast area.
It's a good start point to visit this area, where the beach is littered with whale bones and shipwrecks (not included in this scenery).
This airstrip is not available in the game, but is a real one.
Improved airstrip with markings, vegetation, objects and surroundings are also a bit more detailled and accurate.
Area around the runway end have been terraformed.
Several interesting spots have been added.
Known limitations:
Even if I released several sceneries, I still consider myself as a beginner so the scene is not very realistic, and I only use available models (no custom building yet...)
I don't know the place by myself, and only use web available pictures (not that much are available actually...), but since a few day I'm in contact with a local pilot, providing me fresh pics and info, so it should improve soon (as fast as I progress with blender texturing knowledge...).
The real ICAO code for this airstrip is FYHO, but it's already used in another place in the game so I had to assign a fake and unused one: FYHN. I don't know yet ho to change these erroneous codes.

NB1:
If you have the Daher Kodiak addon you can use this livery by GeeBeeAero: https://fr.flightsim.to/file/25554/daher-kodiak-v5-dgw-namib-safari
All the screenshots are made with this livery.
NB2:
This is a rework of the current MSFS implemented airfield. However, this runway is now closed and a new one is available IRL south of this one.
This scenery will have soon a massive improvement, marking the current airfield as closed and adding the new one, with custom "buildings".
Absolutely great! And I mean all your work with the Namibian airfields. My ancestors once founded a small city there, and I'm looking forward for more sceneries to come 😉

O, really beautiful, Aviapics.
If my search has been okay, the animals are Black Buck Antelopes.
