Antarctica Vol. 2 - Australian Casey and Skiways
The second volume of our popular Antarctica series covers the Australian Antarctic Casey on the opposite side of the continent, right on the mainland: A region of vast glaciers extending for thousands of miles into the continent.

The second volume of our popular Antarctica series covers the Australian Antarctic Casey on the opposite side of the continent, right on the mainland: A region of vast glaciers extending for thousands of miles into the continent.
We have included a large area of coastal landscape with its typical penguin colonies, icebergs and – of course – a very detailed base with its helipad and a lot to discover. Take off from here using a helicopter, try to stay low above the detailed rugged terrain, maneuver your way through icebergs and find one of the two icebreakers operating here.
If you’re more into fixed wing operations, no matter if low and slow or high and fast, you can choose between two skiways: The Casey Skiway on the glacier a few kilometers above the base for medium distance operations or the Wilkins Aerodrome about 70 kilometers to the south – well known for its A319-115LR passenger flights (yes, that’s an Airbus on ice!) or C-17 cargo flights between here and Australia.
Detailed Casey Station with all buildings, a lot of clutter and extremely detailed terrain
Wilkins Aerodrome Skiway 70 km south of the base (intercontinental and continental operations)
Casey Skiway (continental operations)
Lots of animations including animals, vehicles, boats and people, including probably the first animated penguins and chain vehicles in MSFS
Plenty of custom created sounds of animals and vehicles
Coverage beyond the base with aerial imagery at various resolutions along the coast
Hundreds of thousands of animated icebergs in a larger area around the base
Adelie penguin colonies with thosands and thousands of animals at their real-world locations (performance optimized through instancing)
An impressive custom fleet of typical animated and static vehicles and clutter
Carefully crafted landscape to merge with surrounding terrain
Including updated waterbodies
Special technique used to bypass ground resolution limitation imposed by MSFS, giving the skiway ground textures a much more detailed layout than most airport add-ons
Special technique used to add wind shear details to the vast white lands on the glacier
Extensive manual with detailed information on flying in Antarctica

The Azores are an archipelago and popular holiday destination in the mid-Atlantic which are home to dramatic landscapes, fishing villages and green countryside. The Azores are made up of 9 main islands with the largest city being Ponta Delgada on the island of São Miguel which is also home to some large volcanic lakes and a large commercial port. Pico on the other hand is home to the spectacular 2,351m Mount Pico which is a recommended visit after a takeoff from the local Aeroporto Do Pico (LPPI).
We have lovingly recreated the many marinas, ports and harbours that skirt the coastline of these islands and provide vital tourist and commercial trade to the local area.
This scenery covers the coastline of all 9 main islands from Ilha das Flores and Corvo, to the west; Graciosa, Terceira, São Jorge, Pico, and Faial in the centre; and São Miguel, Santa Maria, and the Formigas islets to the east. Each has its own airport so are great for island hopping low level flights.
This pack introduces over 500 moving leisure and commercial vessels near and around the islands together with moving, landable cruise ships and thousands of static vessels filling the many ports and marinas. You will also find local ferry services here operating their usual routes. The scenery further includes watermasks in the main areas as well as fixes to vegetation and water/terrain elevation.

Vessels: The Canary Islands
The Canary Islands are a Spanish archipelago nestled just 67 miles off the Northwest coast of Africa in the Atlantic Ocean. They consist of the main islands of Lanzarote, Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura, La Palma and Tenerife but also include the less visited destinations of La Graciosa, La Gomera and El Hierro. There is rich nautical history here too. The port of San Sebastian la Gomera was the last stopping place of Christopher Columbus on his first transatlantic voyage in 1492. Today it is a port... The Canary Islands are a Spanish archipelago nestled just 67 miles off the Northwest coast of Africa in the Atlantic Ocean. They consist of the main islands of Lanzarote, Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura, La Palma and Tenerife but also include the less visited destinations of La Graciosa, La Gomera and El Hierro. There is rich nautical history here too. The port of San Sebastian la Gomera was the last stopping place of Christopher Columbus on his first transatlantic voyage in 1492. Today it is a port of call for the Fred Olsen Benchi Express, a small catamaran ferry that serves the various destinations on the island. El Hierro, also known as Ferro once served as the prime meridian, as it was the most westerly place known to ancient geographers.
Today the Islas Canarias (as they are known in Spain) are a bustling tourist destination with Tenerife and Gran Canaria being busy maritime hubs for cargo and cruise shipping as well as offshore oil drilling operations. You will find all of that represented in this scenery with the ports of Santa Cruz de Tenerife and Las Palmas de Gran Canaria being especially alive with nautical traffic.
The scenery includes many ferries from the various operators in this area with all but one (the little Benchi Express) having helidecks that you can land on as they move from port to port. We have also included landable, moving supply ships, cruise ships, drilling ships and a semi-submersible oil platform (that is being towed) to maximise your helicopter fun (see map below for starting locations of these).
Note: The free Vessels Core library is required. The Contrail App will install this automatically for you.
Tips:
Set ground wind to 3m/s (7 knots) or above for the more realistic waves and wakes.
Adjusting the time slightly can reload the boat traffic fully if it seems too low on first starting a flight (known MSFS bug).

PBR models

Petersburg James A Johnson Airport (IATA: PSG, ICAO: PAPG)Like most towns along the Milk Run & on Alaska's panhandle, Petersburg is only accessible by plane or boat and is largely involved in commercial fishing having a population of roughly 3000 people living in the area. It also attracts tourists for outdoor activities like skiing, hiking, & fishing even getting some small cruises. Petersburg itself is located on the north end of Mitkof Island and is located halfway between Juneau and Ketchikan. PSG is less than a mile from the town center & is only served by Alaska Airlines with flights to Juneau and Wrangell. While Alaska Airlines is the only major airline at PSG, scheduled commercial flights only make up 10% of operations here with air taxis having the majority, such as float planes or helicopters. The airport is operated by Alaska Airlines, Alaska Seaplanes, and other private and business aviation. Alaska Airlines operates daily Boeing 737-700 passenger and Boeing 737-700 passenger/cargo jet service from the airport. Stopping at Petersburg airport is a part of Milk Run. The Milk Run refers to the daily circuit of Alaska Airlines flights that hop between towns in Southeast Alaska, serving as a lifeline for the communities that aren’t always connected by roads to the outside world. One of the Milk Run routes, Flight 65, starts in Seattle and stops in Ketchikan, Wrangell, Petersburg, and Juneau before landing in Anchorage. Another, Flight 66, starts in Anchorage and stops in Cordova, Yakutat, and Juneau before arriving in Seattle.

PAYA - Yakutat Airport On Sale
Yakutat played a vital role in Alaska military operations during WWII. The airport in use today was originally constructed in 1941 as a landing field for transport aircraft between Washington State and Elmendorf Air Force Base. Yakutat Army Airfield, a large aviation garrison and paved runway, was constructed as part of the United States Army's long-range defense program for Alaska. It was used in combat by the 406th Bombardment Squadron from June–November 1942 by the 28th Bombardment Group. Dur... Yakutat played a vital role in Alaska military operations during WWII.

Yakutat Army Airfield, a large aviation garrison and paved runway, was constructed as part of the United States Army's long-range defense program for Alaska. It was used in combat by the 406th Bombardment Squadron from June–November 1942 by the 28th Bombardment Group. During the peak of military activity in Yakutat from October 1940 to 1946, U. S. Army and U. S. Army Air Corps constructed the Yakutat airport, fuel dock and fuel tank farm, and a fuel pipeline to the airport with tankage. Also constructed was a full field hospital, possible beach landing defenses, over 100 miles of roads and bridges to connect all of the various field facilities and housing for the nearly 10,000 troops who were stationed in Yakutat to support and protect the airport. Nowadays Yakutat Airport is a state-owned public-use airport located 6 km southeast of the central business district of Yakutat, a city and borough in the U. S. state of Alaska which has no road access to the outside world. Only Alaska Airlines Boeing 737-700 use this airport for commercial flights. Also, a lot of general aviation arrives during all seasons. People come here to enjoy exciting views and to catch fish in the wild rivers of Alaska.

EDNR - Regensburg Airfield
The airfield Regensburg-Oberhub [ICAO: EDNR] is a developed commercial airfield 16 km north of Regensburg. The airfield is operated by the Motorfluggruppe Regensburg e. V.
The airfield is located at an altitude of 1298 ft (396 m) and has the radio frequency 120. 430. The asphalted runway is 645 m long, has a landing light for night flight and 15 m wide and has the alignments 10 and 28 - eastward with a gradient.

The airfield is located at an altitude of 1298 ft (396 m) and has the radio frequency 120. 430. The asphalted runway is 645 m long, has a landing light for night flight and 15 m wide and has the alignments 10 and 28 - eastward with a gradient.
The airfield was established in 1960 and initially had only a grass runway of about 400 m. Gradually in the 60's a clubhouse, an aircraft hangar and a gas station were built - here you can get AVGAS and MOGAS. In 2021 the runway was restored and extended. There is also a local flight school through the flight sports group.
The airfield is approved for all aircraft up to 2000 kg maximum take-off weight (MTOW), helicopters require an extra permit. Due to the landing lights, the airfield can also be approached at night according to PPR regulations (prior notification).
The airfield has an incredible charm with the buildings and the small cosy restaurant. Here an elderly lady cooks in a small cosy kitchen probably the best homemade Schnitzel, still originally breaded and in a frying pan on the stove - and that at sensationally fair prices. When visiting the place, you can have nice conversations with the resident pilots and club members and enjoy the idyll of this higher situated place.
Even if it is a bit far from Regensburg itself, this place is a true general aviation pearl and definitely worth a visit.
Every building as well as playground and refueling facility at the airfield has been modeled after the original down to the last detail

In 1966 the airfield officially received its approval as a special landing field and from 1971 the buildings were erected. In 1976 the airfield received an asphalt runway.
The dimensions of the runway are 550m x 15 m with the orientations 09 and 27. The airfield is located at 1030 ft (314 m) and contains a gas station for avgas and mogas, a restaurant with a beer garden, a tower and hangar buildings.
The airfield is designed for gliders and powered aircraft up to 3500 kg maximum take-off weight (MTOW), helicopters up to 5700 kg and is PPR, so can be used on request.
VFR flights can be combined here wonderfully eastward to Vilshofen or northwestward to Regensburg Oberhub and Herzogenaurach.
Our places of ClearPropStudios are chosen in such a way, that the most beautiful VFR places in Bavaria and Baden-Wuerttemberg form an overall experience after the model of the real flying.

EDPA - Aalen-Heidenheim/Elchingen
The commercial airfield Aalen-Heidenheim is located 15 km southeast of Aalen, BadenWürttemberg. Owner and operator of the airfield is the association Luftsportring Aalen e. V. , which meanwhile has more than 560 members. On 07. 03. 1954 the airfield was used for the first time by pilots from Aalen. In the following years the airfield was developed into a real airfield with a lot of love, work and effort as well as hard work of the members.

Owner and operator of the airfield is the association Luftsportring Aalen e. V. , which meanwhile has more than 560 members. On 07. 03. 1954 the airfield was used for the first time by pilots from Aalen. In the following years the airfield was developed into a real airfield with a lot of love, work and effort as well as hard work of the members.
The airfield is located at an altitude of 1916 ft (584 m) and has the radio frequency 121. 405. Aalen is considered an uncontrolled airfield, even if the tower gives the clearances - these are purely legal recommendations, but in practice they should be adhered to. EDPA does not have its own control zone at this airfield.
The asphalt runway has a length of 1000m x 30m asphalt and has the runway alignments 09L to the east and 27R to the west. The runway is approved for a maximum take-off weight of 10000kg, so it is also suitable for heavier aircraft. In addition, there is a grass runway 09 R and 27L, also with 1000 x30 m, for gliding, which is very active in Aalen.
The Aalen-Heidenheim airfield is also home to the Aalen Elchingen Flying Museum. Here, numerous gems from civil aviation can be admired. Among them are a De Havilland DH83 Fox Moth, De Havilland Dragon Rapide, an Antonov An-2, a Texan T6 and a Beechcraft 17 Staggerwing. The museum is definitely worth a visit and is a great destination for GA pilots.
Numerous maintenance facilities are also located in Aalen and are certified maintenance facilities for many flying clubs and flight schools. For example, many machines of the flight school Jesenwang are maintained in Aalen.
Aalen also has a cozy restaurant with a beautiful terrace and stunning views of the runway-it's not for nothing that Aalen is considered one of the most beautiful commercial airfields in all of Germany.
Every building as well as the refueling system and the restaurant at the airfield were modeled on the original down to the last detail- for this purpose the airfield was flown to several times in real life.
The different altitudes and terrain shapes were authentically recreated.
