I saw some great screenshots at Flightsim. 1.9mb

FS2004 Scenery--Area 51, Groom Lake, Nevada (NV). An accurate model of Area 51 (just taxiways, runways and some ground textures), using real satellite photos, GPS coordinates and information from many other web sites. By Jeff Higgins

I downloaded this, and flew all around N37*14.5' W115*48.5' the coordinates listed in the readme, but could not find a thing. It's either very stealthy, or I am doing something wrong Embarassed

Oh yes, you have to restart to load new scenery.
Anyway, i was a little disapointed in that there were no buildings or anythig, so I reloaded an old one I had area51-3b.zip which has everything.

Bummer, the screenshots looked very good. I didn't load it yet, I guess I won't.
Thanks for the warning and the other zip name.

I just have to say it.....How can you desert something that you never manned (Officially)?????? 😂

Pro Member Trainee

oh and the reason why they deserted it is because so many people knew about it and they wanted to keep its location a secret so they moved it.

it's still there. every morning there are busses in pahrump, nv., that pick up workers and drive them there. there are also several daily flights from mccarran (klas) that fly workers to the site.

I am not impressed with this scenery add of area 51. It doesn't handle ai traffic giving me runtime errors and there are trees and tops of trees poking through the taxiways giving aircraft crashes and the runways are suspended in mid air.

Not one of the best scenery adds I've installed.

I could tell you where it is but then I'd have to kill you.

Jelami, where did you d/load area51-3b.zip?

If you guys have Google Earth (coolest free sowftware ever, if you don't have it look it up and download it) punch in the coordinates 37 14 00, -115 49 00 just for fun. The program sreams satellite imagry of the whole planet, including Groom lake and Area 51 in all its glory.
