Oceano airport is a cozy little airport in a perfect slice of paradise. Located right next to the Pacific Ocean in the community of Oceano, California, Oceano Airport is the perfect landing spot for your general aircraft. The airport is near the beach, bordered on the north by Pismo State Beach, and on the south by the Pismo Dunes Natural Preserve. The Pacific Ocean coastline is less than a half-mile from the main ramp area.
All airport buildings have been replaced: airport office and its pilot lounge, main entry gate and his numerous signs, fuel island, executive hangar, airport beacon, wind cone and segmented circle (WIP)… not to mention the famous campground. The scenery is available for free at https://flightsim.to/d/vbazillio/l52-oceano
As all of my mod, this small scenery is made from pilot-eyes perspective. I flew there once in real and I’m an amateur scenery developer. This mod is made with 99% of MSFS default objects library except for some specific objects like signs and the blue and yellow biplane which required “totof- aircraft library v3” available here at flightsim.to.

This looks great! I live on the Central Coast, and have flown in and out of Oceano many times (weather permitting.) I’ve never been up in the Stearman though…

Version 1.2.6 released
- Fuel is now available inside MSFS when you position at the ACI Jet fuel station
- Replace all runway markings with bigger and close to real
- Resize taxiways to better fit with the underlying Bing satellite image
- Fix apron color error (need more work… and time)
- Fix Vegetation missing or too tense for example up to the Windsock area
…and dozen of other things that only an amateur dev can understand
Starting from this version 1.2.6, the installation folder is standardized : “vbcorp-airport-l52-oceano-upgrade” (instead of the previous old “vbcorp-l52-oceano-upgrade”).
In other words, delete any of my Oceano airport version installed in “vbcorp-l52-oceano-upgrade” before copying “vbcorp-airport-l52-oceano-upgrade” into your Community folder.
A new version is now available (1.2.7) Oceano (L52) for Microsoft Flight Simulator | MSFS
- Add new free model animated windsocks by TheAirportGuys. Thanks to him! It replaces the default MSFS windsock which is more for Europe.
Caution: new folder installation. Please remove any older version previously installed in “vbcorp-airport-l52-upgrade”. Now the proposed folder in the distribution .zip is “vbcorp-airport-l52-oceano”.
