Manton Airfield Scenery

2.5/5 • 179 downloads • 17.25 MB • Clean (6d)

Manton Airfield, UK. For users of Neil's Microlights South-West although it can be used with the default Horizon VFR sceneries as well although the scenery will not be visible. Quite a short strip but with a hump in the middle (courtesy of Horizon's terrain model) the most challenging part is the taxi down the 1 in 6 taxiway to the hangars/factory, the trip back up is something else but can easily be accomplished by the default ultralight--a very challenging ride. By Neil Birch.
