A New North Carolina Airport

I was at Skyvector a couple days ago to plan a short flight from Odell Williamson Airport, my home airport. I just wanted a flight of maybe 30-45 minutes through no coltrolled airspace, and KCPC Columbus County Muncipal was the choice. As I always do, I "Googled" it and lo and behold no one has ever done it for FSX, P3D, MSFS OR X-plane. Smith did an AFCAD for it in the "Mega AFCADS NC" package but it has been updated in 2024 so my version is going to be accurate and up to date. Like Walter Brennen used to say in the "Sons of Will Sonnet" on TV---NO BRAG...JUST FACT. When I saw this new terminal I just had to do it. I have created photoreal background in SBuilderX which will have seasons and autogen when it's complete. Is this sweet or what??? It is being created for P3D V4.5 and it will be shared here in the Resources.

It is a very small airport which is strictly GA. The runway is only 5,500 ft long and 75 ft wide. I am going to make custom hangers for it. Sadly Google Earth never gave "on the ground" views so I will have to go by the satellite views for dimensions and proportion them accordingly. I may take a ride up to it with my trusty digital Nikon DX like I did for 60J and take my family for a day trip photo op. We'll see how motivated I get. Since I am the inaugeral creator it may be worth it to get it as perfect as I can. BTW I have to go back out to 60J on a photo op to shoot the new McDonalds and the Mavis Tire Shop that were added since I made it in 2023. Stay tuned for a 2025/26 update to Odell Williamson Airport in beautiful Ocean Isle, North Carolina courtesy of yours truly.
