Anybody know of anything for this rather important base in a phenomenally photogenic area? Been working up hooked Raidens, Jills and IJNS Unryu on the Inland Sea out of Iwakuni, and it looks a bit bare. Seaplane heaven around there, too.

MAIW did a scenery package for modern day Iwakuni, but don't believe it will work properly in FSX. Something about the coastlines not matching up, and some of the objects being too FPS intensive.

I'd like to see Iwakuni done for FSX though. Spent six months there with VAQ-134 Garudas. NC

Beautiful place! I spent a couple of years there with the SAR unit on HH-46A's.

Spent six months there from Aug 66 to Jan 67 with VMF-235(F8-U's) then we rotated to Danang . Great duty station. Walk out the main gate and you are in town .

Random this thread came up - my coworker (ATCer) was stationed there a few years back!
