2. Copy the three (3) BGL files into that folder.

3. Restart FSX and enjoy landing on the White House Lawn!

Background Info (from personal experience and documentaries):

Reagan National Airport is approximately 1-2 miles South of the White House. They supply one of their yellow airport fire trucks just in case there is a problem with Marine One. There is always an ambulance on standby for the President and of course his motorcade.

I also created a centerline to line the helicopter up with when landing. Marine One always lands facing East so the President can exit the helicopter on the LEFT side.

Marine One also usually makes its approach from the Washington Monument directly towards the landing zone and then hovers over the landing zone and turns 90-degrees to the RIGHT to land. When it takes off, it hovers over the landing pad, turns RIGHT 90-degrees and heads directly towards the Washington Monument before turning towards its destination.

Air Force One is stored at Andrews AFB which is about 10 miles East of the White House.

Enjoy!
