during my World VFR Tour i just landing in Alaska. My first stage will be Barrow. So why not to model a new airport?
Wiley Post–Will Rogers Memorial Airport , (IATA: BRW , ICAO: PABR , FAALID: BRW ) often referred to as Post/Rogers Memorial , is a public airport located in Utqiagvik (Barrow), the largest city and borough seat of the North Slope Borough of the U.S. state of Alaska.[2] The airport is owned by the state.[1] Situated on the Chukchi Sea at a latitude of 71.29°N, the airport is the farthest north of any in US territory. The airport is named after American humorist Will Rogers and aviator Wiley Post, both of whom died about 9 mi (14 km) away at Point Barrow in a 1935 airplane crash.[3]
if someone has some good photos of this airport, can post here please.
Felice Natale.
this airport, PABR, is very far from finish… I work on this, sorry, I spend some time on this for hobby.
my passion pushes me to improve it more and more, although there are not many sources, nor photographs. In fact, no one has posted a single photo of this airport.
So it’s hard to go on. When I finish it, or when I think it may be finished, I’ll see what can be done. But without support, without sources, references or anything else it’s tough: D
This are from the incoming 1.4
Just finish another 3 new building
then all the neighboring ones will follow, and the fences i hope
Just to let you know, I visited Barrow in late June and the temperature was 1°C. My tour guide showed up with shorts on. (“It’s warm out today,” he said. )
This is an amazing scenery. Truly a work of art.
Just an fyi, the segmented circle as you show it needs to have a direction at the legs. This will tell the pilots flying overhead what direction the traffic pattern is for entry. See here
