Meadow Lake Airport, CO, United States.
"Colorado's Largest Pilot Owned Airport" EST. 1965
This awesome airport and aviation community have more then 360 airplanes based on the field. The KFLY history have a lot of interesting stories and details. Even the High Flights Soaring club here is opened for more then 30 years. If there are any local people who can give me more further details and information for next release, reach me out in the messages or comments :) The Meadow Lake Airport and it's history is totally worth to have an accurate scenery for MSFS.
There is a gallery of photos from local website, located in one of FBO buildings. Feel free to enjoy this very interesting peace of history, as I did when I was researching.
From the v1 and forward this airport is co-developed with great support and materials from the local pilot solid_shadow

I hope you still plan on implementing the custom hangers and such. This mod is really awesome as I fly out of KFLY quite a bit.

A truly incredible scenery! I was very excited to see that somebody made KFLY scenery, and it looks great. The red barn, the compass, the houses, etc. Hoping to see updates in the near future!

decided to check if there was an add on, and noticed there was, it's very well done and it's neat to see my home airport like this.

I learned to fly here and still fly at KFLY every weekend! I had made my own version of the airport but yours is much better. It looks pretty spot on, except for the runway markings. We have 1000 foot markers and stripes all along the runway now. Its also missing all of the wind socks, there's 2 for 15, one on the left and one to the right, and two for 33, one on the right up towards the intersection of the crosswind runway and another on the left near the glider strip.
I'd be happy to DM you some photos of the up to date runway markings and windsock locations! I've remade the airport in XPlane too almost exactly and can send screenshots of the runways and windsocks from that too if that would help.

One of my favorite airports and it's nice to see it more realistically represented versus the MS default (especially the parking ramps!). Looking forward to future updates, but what you've done is superb. Thnx
