First look at OG31 Shady Cove in southern Oregon from Orbx

Today we're visiting "Shady Cove" - a small dirt airstrip in southern Oregon, available from Orbx. I take the WACO YMF5 for a couple of circuits of the area. Enjoy!

Thanks my friend!!!!

Orbx has another one good small airfield in Fall City Washington, 1WA6. It's another very small community airfield set in a gorgeous place. Thanks for pointing this one out!

Love how you slowly pan an overview of the site. Really gave a good feel for it. TY. One idea for places like this is to first show the default MSFS airport so we can see how much of an upgrade. If one likes the location it does seem like a worthy and major upgrade compared to the default. Literally a total transformation. Looks like I will be getting it. :)
On a separate note I did notice that there should be three chicken coops and not just two at 01:36.

I used to fly over a number of these communities in Texas. There would be maybe two dozen homes with hangars and a community airfield. Instead of having a community pool or rec center, they put their money into the air field. Many of them built in the 1950s.

Lol this is funny...I grew up in Shady Cove and I was just telling my wife how a FS content channel has this map on review.
And to your comment..yes some of the houses around the airstrip are from very well to do people, but the community itself is very middle class.

These are quite common here in the US. Actually, these communities are not any more exspensive than your typical neighborhood. Lots of these in Florida...many properties handed down generation to generation.

Hi Jonathan, would you mind sharing your Tobii sensitivity settings in MSFS? I’m trying to get to grips with mine and your tracking seems really stable!

[@jonbeckett]

I've just left it all stock :)

[@caaront]

I was having issues withg minbe and had to set the center stability (I think, it acts like a dead zone) way up toward 80% to all the way.

[@philiptaylor2366]

@@jonbeckett Ah right! I've fiddled with mine so much I can't remember what stock looks like :-D thanks though

[@philiptaylor2366]

@@caaront Thanks for the tip! I'll give that a go too.

I love small airports, hope ORBX will do even the misding others that were avalaible for FSX.
