FSX Lumb In Rossendale Private Strip Scenery

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.
