FSX NAS Whiting Field North And South

NAS Whiting field is the busiest Naval Air Station in the Navy. Approximately 40% of all Naval Aviators will receive their primary flight training at Whiting Field. Whiting Field North caters to the fixed wing contingent and Whiting Field South serves rotary wing aviators in training.

The base actually serves the Navy, Air Force, Coast Guards and Marines and has water towers representing the services served. Pilots fly the T34C Turbo Mentor, T-6A Texan II (future), and for rotary wing pilots, the TH-57 Sea Ranger, which is the military version of the FSX default Bell 206 Jet Ranger. Taxiway Z connects the two airports, but since the airports are at different elevations, the taxiways were connected with a platform ramp which can be traveled with most aircraft, but cannot be used with AI. There are some acceleration objects installed. This version adds ILS on KNDZ runway 32 along with the six strobe MALSR. It adds radial data to the default NSE VORTAC that was DME only (112.3), and adds various support buildings and fuel trucks. There is a new control tower under construction at KNDZ. The tower has been added as well as the airport beacon on the "Fly Navy" water tower. Outlying fields 8A (KN8A) and Spencer NOLF (NRQ) have been added to this scenery as well. Dodosim 206/TH57 owners will be happy to note that all the helo landing pads and parking places have been appended with the "NO CRASH" .xml stub so you will be able to keep crash sensing on during take offs and landings. Be careful during hover-taxiing!
