I’ve recently discovered the joy of orthophoto’s and with it a sense of awe I hadn’t experienced in a while in a flight sim.
But I was quickly confronted with one rather annoying aspect of ortho’s…
And the list goes on and on, making the vast majority of those bush strips unplayable.
So, I’ve decided to tackle the problem, at least try to. I realised it wasn’t just about correcting the alignment, most of the surrounding vegetation was gone, along with the “bush strip” feeling.
It wasn’t easy to find reference pics for these strips so I just tried to make them blend nicely with their surroundings.
I hope to share a first batch within the next couple of days.
They are not all bush strips, some are just the Mudspike Air Delivery FBO’s in FSE
Coming soon:

No ATC, no runway light but plenty of beers and a race track (it’s there in reality too)
Great work @EightBall. You’ve obviously got some moving making chops to go along with your painting and scenery editing skills!
Did you start with the prebuilt US Orthophotos, or build using Ortho4XP? By any chance have you come across Johnson’s Creek in your Idaho bush strip journey?
