One-Six-Right is a must see for anyone interested in GA. I saw it on Hulu then bought the DVD. The story is a history of GA as presented from the "eyes" of KVNY. The video is wonderful.

If only you could see it here
I'm hoping FTX/Orbx will do it when they do California.

I am hoping for Van Nys and Pearson. I know the Flightzone works but its missing alot...I deleted it from FSX.

Don't forget to watch "One Six Left: The making of One Six Right"
"One Six Right" is soooooooooooooo good, it actually chokes me up at times.
Possibly the best aviation video put out.
My computer: ABS Gladiator Gaming PC featuring an Intel 10700F CPU, EVGA CLC-240 AIO cooler (dead fans replaced with Noctua fans), Asus Tuf Gaming B460M Plus motherboard, 16GB DDR4-3000 RAM, 1 TB NVMe SSD, EVGA RTX3070 FTW3 video card, dead EVGA 750 watt power supply replaced with Antec 900 watt PSU.
One of the best aviation videos made, can't watch it enough.
What do you mean "missing in FSX" as it's present in mine. Not even vaguely close to the atmosphere or character of the real thing though but I've done many landings on my virtual 16R.

I thought I had an add-on for that airport? I can remember flying out of it shortly after watching the film. I don't remember who made it, however?
I know a lot of good I am doing.

That was a great video. Thanks for the heads up. I appreciate that they also talked about Miegs Field and how daley destroyed it.
:ernae:
Thanks for posting the link to this program on Hulu!
I remember seeing this on TV not long after I moved to USA a few years ago, and as I live in Los Angeles it was a double benefit to see it. There is some fantastic footage in there. I'll watch it tonight on the PC linked to the TV to appreciate its full glory!
Cheers again!

The bottom line however is that anything and everything that van nuys is and was is completely missing from fsx. generic buildings are used for everything, and the whole place was treated like some cow on a cattle drive.. Even though i dont personally live in Van Nuys, i'm disgusted by it.. Van nuys needs to be done and done right..
And that shocks you that the default is not very good? You could say that about 90+% of the airports/airfields/airbases in the game. Aside from a nice video and a rich heritage what's so special about KVNY? What's disgusting is the way MS put southwest US ground cover over most of the planet.
:ernae:
Agreed, MS did a poor job of rendering airports in both FS9 and FSX....3rd party add-ons are the only way to go!
It's too bad that an airport as important to aviation history as KVNY has not yet been done by a major developer, like Fly Tampa. (KVNY is my home airport. Encore Flight, formerly Hollywood Aviators, is the FBO I use there.) Hopefully that will become a reality. A realistic KBUR would be nice, too!
Also, One-Six Right is absolutely great, and One-Six Left is also excellent!
