| Thomas Browne Airpark Airport (61NJ), NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 02 miles W of Glassboro, New Jersey, Thomas Browne Airpark Airport is a private turf strip 2000��80 feet. There is no hard-surfaced runway, which means you will be landing on terrain so it is recommended you set your mesh resolution as high as possible. Watch out for trees and buildings alongside and at opposite ends of the runway. Crop fields are planted to the south of the runway and border the runway. You won't crash if you run into them but it certainly won't put you in good favor with the field owners! Take caution to avoid the transmission line towers as they are not lit at night! Neither is the runway, for that matter, so daytime VFR operations only are recommended for this airfield.

| Mount Pleasant Landing Strip Airport (67NJ), NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 01 miles S of Hainesburg, New Jersey on 192 acres of land, Mount Pleasant Landing Strip Airport is a private turf field. The strip itself is 2100 feet in length over fairly level ground. There is no hard-surfaced grass runway in place, so setting your mesh to the highest resolution is recommended as you will be landing on bare terrain. Next to Runway 06 is a path through the trees you can taxi along to get to a hangar - although it is not available for transient aircraft and is closed. Collision with the trees along the path near the hangar and the static aircraft parked near it is disabled to make it easier to move through this relatively tight area. Immediately beyond the hangar is a clearing with ample room to turn around to taxi back out. You can also start parked in front of the hangar. The windsock is located a few feet west of the hangar and is not lit. The runway also has no edge lighting so daytime VFR operations only are recommended for this airfield.

| Vliet Airport (6NJ1), NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 02 miles SE of Washington, New Jersey, Vliet Airport is a private turf field. Trees border the runway on three sides, and a dirt mound and semi-truck are also obstacles to watch out for at the end of Runway 06 if you land long. At 1300' feet, it is a very short runway so make sure you check the capabilities of your aircraft before attempting to either land or take off here! Don't forget that in order to clear trees, usable runway space is closer to only 1000'. This airport has no lighting so daytime VFR operations only are recommended. Take note that there is also no wind sock, so be sure you are aware of the weather conditions prior to arriving/departing. There is also no hard-surfaced runway and you will be landing on terrain so it's suggested you have your mesh resolution slider as high as possible.

| Bridgeport-Cahill Field Airport (6NJ9), NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 01 miles SW of Bridgeport, New Jersey on 167 acres of land, this airport is non-existent in real life, as far as I am able to determine. although it is still listed as Active, no visible trace of anything remotely suitable for a landing strip is visible anywhere in this area. The strip mining operation nearby in some satellite/aerial photos shows a long narrow grass strip that could be used as a runway, but then others show it stripped down to bare dirt as part of the apparent mining operation, and the MegaSceneryEarth textures depict this latter representation as well. So I have simply removed visible evidence of this strip, although FSX will still try to tell you it's there in the airport directory.

| Parker Airport (70NJ), NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 02 miles S of Asbury, New Jersey on 13 acres of land, Parker Airport is a private turf strip located on residential property. This airport is challenging in many ways. For one, when approaching from the southeast the airport is located immediately after a tall ridge, so when topping this ridge at altitude you may not even see the airport over the nose of your aircraft before you overfly it. The runway for this airport is 1600' feet long but it is curved and slightly sloped perpendicular to your roll, so significant rudder will be needed to stay aligned - be careful when operating with any crosswind component! It is highly recommended that you only depart via Runway 25 and arrive via Runway 07 to avoid having to clear significant obstacles prior to landing or after taking off. This airport has no hard-surfaced runway and there is a very noticeable "bump" in the terrain halfway down the runway that will literally bounce your aircraft into the air - I tried my best to smooth it over but could not get rid of it entirely. When taking off make sure you have back pressure applied so your main gear only bounce you high enough to remain within ground effect - hitting your nose wheel can cause an extreme pitch up leading to a stall. Trees close in tight to the runway at the end of Runway 07 or the start of Runway 25, however collision has been disabled with the trees nearest the runway so you can scrape some branches if needed on the takeoff/landing rolls. The author has successfully departed and arrived on both runways in the default Cessna 172 under moderate crosswind from the northeast. This field may definitely require some practice but it is usable!! This airport has no edge lighting, so daytime VFR operations only are recommended.

| Spitfire Aerodrome Airport (7N7), NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 02 miles S of Pedricktown, New Jersey on 48 acres of land, Spitfire Aerodrome Airport is a public asphalt single-strip field that allows transient craft to tie down on the apron. There are also helicopters based here on this field (note there is no Jet-A fuel available) so the helicopter start location will place you on the ramp.
Although this airport has a beacon, FSX for some reason does not include one with the stock airport file and I can't yet create rotating beacons so it is there and lit at night but does not rotate and is not as visible as the rotating ones. This will be addressed in a later update. Also take note of the layout of this airport, it requires that AI traffic cross the runway in order to taxi to either end for take off. AI aircraft DO NOT hold short when taxiing across runways (this is an FSX limitation), so use extreme caution on approach and departure to avoid any unfortunate runway incursions. Aircraft can fuel up by parking near the fuel truck beside the hangar south of the runway. If you have trouble locating the windsock, look on top of the hangar roof north of the runway. The crashed aircraft in the pond is fictional, there is a distinctive airplane-shaped object there in the satellite textures but I could not determine what this might be from aerial photos so I just crashed a plane there for kicks :)

| Stoe Creek Farm Airport (7NJ2), NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 01 miles S of Canton, New Jersey, Stoe Creek Farm is a private turf field 1725' in length. The runway is largely clear of obstructions although on approach for Runway 05 you will deal with 20-30' trees a few hundred feet back from the threshold and there are transmission towers along the approach corridor to Runway 23 you should watch out for. The runway does have edge lighting, although the windsock is not lit at night and daytime VFR is still recommended. There are no services for transient craft at this airfield. Since you will be landing on terrain, it is recommended that your mesh complexity is set as high as possible.

| Coombs Airport (7NJ7), NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 04 miles NE of Elmer, New Jersey, Coombs Airport is a private turf field 2000' in length wilth clear 20:1 approach and departure at each end of the runway. You'll find some surrounding buildings but they are all located several hundred yards from the runway. This is a good strip to keep in mind for emergencies if you're in the area. You will be landing on terrain so having your mesh complexity set as high as possible is recommended. This airport is not lit at night, daytime VFR operations only are suggested. There are no transient services offered.

| Dave's Aerodrome Airport (7NJ9), NJ |
|
File Description:
Located 01 miles SW of Cedarville, New Jersey on 43 acres of land, Dave's Aerodrome Airport is a private turf field 2000' with a 600' displaced threshold on Runway 12. Each runway has a clear 20:1 approach slope, but in the case of Runway 12 be sure to aim for a landing past the hangar! There are power lines running along the road at the runway threshold that are not just there for decoration - come in too low and FSX will register a crash. In real life they have red balls on them - unfortunately I have no way of adding those in the sim at this time. So be on the lookout while on approach. Also take note that it is a right pattern for Runway 12 and a left pattern for Runway 30. The windsock is located next to the hangar and is not lit. There are no lights at this airport so daytime VFR operations only are suggested. No services are offered for transient aircraft. There is no hard-surfaced runway, you will be landing on bare terrain so set your mesh complexity slider as high as it will go for the best effect.
