Upcoming GA Airports in CA/OR - Planned Development

A35Klove · July 9, 2026, 3:55pm

And the latest to come under development is KJAQ. I found an old scenery for it that took care of the airport layout and parking, which are things that take a huge amount of time. My scenery will be on top of that, just replacing the buildings, features, and fencing.

I think it’s still a good idea to release airports for which there are payware versions out there. Unless you feel bad for the author. I released KCON years ago as freeware, and a payware author released it a few months ago. I have no plan to take mine down.

If the freeware is any good, I’ll pick that up over payware.

Point taken, but it’s not that I feel bad for the author. I am in regular contact with some payware studios to find out what California projects they have up their sleeve. Basically I have always been a payware customer of the studios I like in regions where I usually fly, so I just don’t have motivation to work on airports if someone is putting out a version I will probably purchase. My aim with these projects is to cover gaps that aren’t really available at all, both for myself and others

I just can’t abide the overly simplistic and inaccurate default fields in places I am familiar with

Happy to report KOVE has been released!

As a follow up, what sort of images from Sunriver would you want if I can get some this week?

For a future update, it would be helpful to have any on the ground photos of smaller structures in the parking area behind the FBO and also the hangars along River Road. The Google street imagery is a couple years old with poor lighting.

Images from today! Might have a chance to get a few others, but with family in tow it’s a touch tricky.

Awesome work, thank you for sharing! Very clear with multiple angles.

Will definitely make use of them for a future update. Though one sad point - it seems they have paved over the grass patch fronting the FBO. What do you think, remove the landscaped frontage of the FBO in the scenery or leave it in…?
