FSX Potomac Airfield Scenery

Potomac Airfield (KVKX) for FSX recreates the private airpark at Fort Washington, Maryland, inside Washington’s Flight Restricted Zone, with custom hangars, realistic runway markings, static aircraft, and an animated wind T for authentic small-field operations and aerobatics training ambience. Includes a Buckley Aviation Citabria repaint that requires the RealAir Citabria, Decathlon and Scout 2007 package.

Potomac Airfield (KVKX), also known as Potomac Airport or Potomac Airpark, is a privately-owned, public-use airport located in the community of Fort Washington, Maryland (MD), just outside of Washington, D.C. Along with College Park Airport and Washington Executive Airport/Hyde Field, it is located in the Flight Restricted Zone (FRZ) in the center of the Washington, D.C. Air Defense Identification Zone. Pilots are required to apply for a special security clearance before they are permitted to fly into these airports. Potomac Airfield is also home to Buckley Aviation where you can learn aerobatics. By Christopher G. Clawson.

This scenery was created using Airport Design Editor FSX Edition. Hangars and FCLP runway markings were created using Google SketchUp and converted for FSX using ModelConverterX and Library Creator XML by Arno Gerretsen. Static aircraft is from a freeware collection by KB Sims. The animated wind T is part of the freeware Small Airstrip Objects collection by Sidney Schwartz. Several static aircraft were converted from my own repaints using Static Aircraft .mdl Maker by Don Grovestine.

Installation instructions:

  1. Unzip this file to a temporary folder.
  2. Copy the KVKX folder to your FSX "Addon Scenery" folder and add this to your FSX scenery library.
  3. Unzip kb_static_aircraft_FSX.zip. This file contains the static aircraft library from KB Sims. Copy this to your FSX "Addon Scenery" folder and add this to your FSX scenery library.
  4. Unzip smlairob.zip. This file contains the Small Airstrip Objects collection by Sidney Schwartz. Refer to Small Airstrip Objects SS readme.txt for installation instructions.

Also included is my repaint of Buckley Aviation's Citabria N53758. It requires the payware "Citabria, Decathlon and Scout 2007" from RealAir Simulations. To install, unzip CitabriaN53758.zip and refer to it's readme.txt.

This scenery is offered as freeware. Please feel free to contact me with any comments or suggestions. Fans of Buckley Aviation may notice two "old friends" parked on the field next to the Yellow Super Cub. Also, my buddy Joe is fueling up his Turbo Arrow.

How to install this mod

FSX / P3D scenery

  1. Extract the downloaded archive

    Use 7-Zip (free) or WinRAR to extract the ZIP to a temporary folder. Don't install while still zipped — the simulator can't read inside ZIP files.

  2. Place scenery in Addon Scenery

    Create a folder under FSX\Addon Scenery\ containing scenery and texture sub-folders.

  3. Activate in Scenery Library

    In FSX, go to Settings → Scenery Library → Add Area. Higher priority means it overrides lower entries for the same location.

  4. Always read the included readme

    Every mod ships with a readme.txt or README file. It tells you exactly where files go, what dependencies are needed, and any quirks specific to this add-on.
Still stuck? The readme included with the file is the authoritative source for this specific mod. Visit our Flight School tutorials or ask in our Q&A forum.
