If you are looking for something out in the bush, search "George Knowles" on avsim. He created many SF camps, fire bases, and the like (albeit for FS2002--but works OK in FS2004). Tight little airstrips perfect for 'Bou or C-123 flying are my kind of thing.
Some other folks re-created the big airbases: Da Nang, TSN, etc. but their names escape me at the moment.
There is Chu Lai by Al Simms Jr available here:

That is a great place to fly helos, has a ton of landing spots.
Also there is Phu Bai by Doug Kibbey > not sure where I got that from. Check the usual suspects e.g. simviation, avsim etc.

There is also some Laos (vfaa_201.zip)scenery out there - mainly for helos. There was an Alphasim one as well - Bien Hoa - although I guess thats gone now. Plenty of VietNam era airfields from George Knowles around - these are FS2002 though I believe they work.

I think that I got Phu Bai from Hover Control. Take a look in their FS9 scenery files it should be there.

Chu Lai Question ?
Speaking of Chu Lai , those of you that already have it , has anyone tried to make an AFCAD file ? Excellent scenery by the way . I've had it since it came out in 2006 . I'v attempted an AFCAD a couple of times unsuccessfully . I know it does'nt exist in FS9 so you have to start from scratch . If anyone has made one successfully would you mind sharing it ?
At least we would have good place to start and then we could tack on some AI traffic . It might not be easy as there are alot of static aircraft and objects with this scenery .

Its the problem a lot of these Viet Nam sceneries have in that they were made for FS2002 - also some of them are heavy on frames. I thought about doing an AFCAD for Chu Lai just never got round to it - the whole area around there just seems so "dead" - land class is bad and textures are horrible, default autogen is inappropriate also there is no scenery for Charles. Some trucks and cyclists down the trail would be good.......
There is Ron Jeffers Apocalypse Now scenery:
