The Disney World airport/STOLport (also known as the Lake Buena Vista airport/STOLport) is a now-closed airport that was located just south of Magic Kingdom park in Florida.
The runway in my recreation is accurate in terms of size. Due to there being no actual pictures of the parking area aside from two planes facing the camera (literally nothing, no idea on parking, buildings, lighting, etc), the apron (parking) area is one giant guess.
My version is meant to be representative of how the STOLport was back when it initially opened in 1971.
The main differences in this scenery compared to now are a much smaller apron area, next to no buildings, and no connecting road at the end of 34. Currently, the runway is used as a storage area for various Walt Disney World project equipment and the apron now has trailers and small offices on it.
To install, drag, and drop "trainplane3-airport-kdws-disneyworld" into your "Community" folder. Please reference the "file structure.jpg" image to ensure it's installed correctly.
Features
- 2000x100ft runway
- 4 parking spots
Bugs
- The markings at the other end will be corrected once Asobo fixes the SDK.
- Street lights appear over the airport area at night. This is also an SDK bug that will wait on Asobo to fix.

Good evening to you and thank you for these excellent downloads these scenes I will try them, but, thank you for these quality scenes. See you soon on your site, thank you very much.
Fun fact: when this airport existed, it was sometimes referred to as the "singing runway" because there were longitudinal grooves cut in the runway spaced precisely so that the plane's tires would hum and play "When you wish upon a star".
