  1. File Name: NOLF Imperial Beach (KNRS) File Submitter: ThePrivateer File Submitted: 22 Dec 2012 File Category: DSF Scenery Packages X-Plane Version(s): X-Plane 10 RuScenery is required for this package! Get it here: http://www.x-plane.su/projects/ruscenery.html. As a follow-on to my earlier NALF San Clemente Island, I give you one of my favirite scenery packages: Naval Outlying Landing Field Imperial Beach, located in Imperial Beach, California (just south of San Diego). From GlobalSecurity.org: "OLF Imperial Beach is located nine miles south of the City of San Diego, between Imperial Beach and the Mexican Border. OLF Imperial Beach consists of approximately 1,100 acres and is the only exclusive-use Naval helicopter airfield on the West Coast. It serves as a practice field for Pacific Fleet helicopters and is utilized by 11 squadrons of combat and patrol helicopters. The principle function of OLF Imperial Beach is to provide landing practice training for Pacific Fleet aviation personnel. Navy helicopters based at North Island, Naval Air Station (NAS) routinely fly to OLF Imperial Beach to conduct training and practice operations." The runways are very short here, so good luck trying to do ops in fighter aircraft. The Helicopter Capital of the World is recreated in detail for X-Plane for the first time, and I hope you all have as much fun flying in and out of it as I did. Have fun!

  3. File Name: NALF San Clemente Island (KNUC) File Submitter: ThePrivateer File Submitted: 22 Dec 2012 File Category: DSF Scenery Packages X-Plane Version(s): X-Plane 10 This is a small & simple version of Naval Auxiliary Landing Field San Clemente Island, located on an officially uninhabited island off the coast of Southern California. From Wikipedia: "One of the primary military function of San Clemente has been to support research and development of many of the Navy's weapon systems. In 1939, the Navy developed the first Landing Craft, Vehicle and Personnel (LCVP) "Higgins Boat" at SCI. This was the beginning of the Naval Amphibious Force, which was one of the key factors in the outcome of World War II. Today SCI's primary function is twofold: (1) to support tactical training of the Pacific Fleet, and (2) to continue as a key research and development facility. SCI provides the Navy and Marine Corps a multi-threat warfare training range. A major part of Navy training takes place on the ranges right off the SCI shores. The primary range covers over 149,000 square miles (386,000 km²) and is the Navy's busiest Fleet airspace. Also included in this training area are two mine exercise areas, the Southern California Anti-Submarine Warfare Range, seven submarine areas, the shallow water Undersea Training Range, and two laser training ranges. In total, SCI is a unique combination of airfields, airspace and ranges unlike any other facility owned by the Navy. It is the only location in the Pacific where surface ships, submarines, aircraft and Navy expeditionary forces can train in all warfare areas simultaneously using shore gunnery, bombardment, air defense, anti sub and electronic warfare." My rendition of NUC doesn't really cover the entire island; just the area immediately surrounding the airport. It's a good training area for naval aircraft such as the FA-18, EA-6B, AH-1, or P-8A, and many real-life Navy pilots consider it to be one of the most demanding training fields in the country due to the high crosswinds and difficult terrain. Also, this package features the first ever MQ-8B Fire Scout helicopter to be publicly available in the X-Plane world. Have fun! Click here to download this file
