FSX El Mirage Field Scenery

El Mirage Field (99CL) brings California’s famed dry-lake airstrip to life with custom scenery tailored for desert flying, giving pilots a clear, immersive base for low-and-slow operations and bush-style practice. Built for Microsoft Flight Simulator X, it requires FSX SP1 with Acceleration and pairs well with MegaSceneryX Southern California for richer surroundings.

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.

    I loved the chance to see what El Mirage turned into. Dad learned to soar there in the early 1970s and like everybody there, I remember as a happy place. I just checked and there will be another reunion for any persons associated with El Mirage.

    Thanks for creating the scenery file. I'd love to return the other three auxiliary fields to George AAF back if I can learn how to create them. All four had similar, though not identical, runway patterns and they were part of the 30,000 Pilots Program in WWII.

    Oh, also, thanks for putting the airfield in the correct place :)
