FSX Lumb In Rossendale Private Strip Scenery

Lumb in Rossendale brings a rugged Pennines private grass strip to life in FSX, set over 900 feet near Bacup and Waterfoot with a deliberately bumpy surface and exposed winds. Custom farm buildings and an on-field NDB (200.10, 6-mile range) improve VFR navigation and local immersion; requires UK VFR Library.

Lumb In Rossendale Private Airstrip UK. A small bumpy grass strip in a farmer's field, taken from Bryan Lockyear's "Farm Strips And Private Airfield Guide", situated in the Pennines at over 900 feet; can be very windy. By Neil Birch.

Situated over 900ft up in the Pennines, near to the towns of Bacup and Waterfoot. To the South-West of the field approx;15 miles away and overlooking the town of Ramsbottom (where I was born) is Peel Tower, a stone tower erected to commemerate Sir Robert Peel, Prime Minister between 1841 - 1846 and the founder of the modern police force, Hence the nicknames `Peelers' and `Bobbies'.

Thanks to Mr.Walmsley for permission to photgraph his buildings and yes the strip really is as bumpy as it seems. I have placed a NDB on the field 200.10 range 6 miles just in case you can't find it. You can also load the airfield from your `airport menu' under Lumb.

INSTALLATION:

Unzip the zip folder into a temporary folder. You will now have three folders 1/ UKVFR LIBRARY 2\Scenery and 3\ Texture.

I reccomend simply installing UK VFR Library and its subfolders onto your hard drive (see end of the chapter A Day on the Farm).

Start flightsim go into world \ Scenery Library \ Add and find the folder `UK VFR Library' activate it and away you go.

The scenery library will reload and will now be active.

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.
