IMPORTANT – LIBRARY REQUIRED!
Emerald Object Library (Also available on Marketplace) is required for this scenery to display as intended! Not installing the library will result in most models not showing throughout the scenery. Emerald Object Library is our own in-house collection of static and dynamic models, materials, and VFX which allows us to push fixes for common assets across multiple products at once, as well as keep the required space of our addons to a minimum by eliminating duplicates in each project.
A Weekend Flyer’s Paradise!
This scenery includes two detailed airstrips: Bald Eagle Airfield- Myakka Head (67FL) and an unlisted private airstrip. Recently acquired by automotive YouTuber Cleetus McFarland, Myakka’s 3400×130 ft (1036×40 m) grass runway is the perfect starting point for some weekend flying! The runway is well maintained and can easily accommodate most GA and Warbird aircraft. Another 50 ft (15 m) strip of grass on the West side of the runway provides additional space for aircraft to taxi and hold just off of the runway, keeping it clear for other aircraft. A parking spawn on the nearby lake also provides water access.
Also included is the private airstrip just to the immediate West of Myakka. This unlisted airstrip is spawnable via two parking spots at Myakka. At just 1600×90 ft (488×27 m), this more confined and less maintained runway provides a bit more of a challenge. The northern approach end is a bit more confined with several collidable Oak trees. The southern approach is a bit easier with the only obstruction being (marked) powerlines. The hangar at this airstrip is static!

We try our best to keep a running list of known issues involving limitations or conflicts when discovered. If possible, fixing these issues are our top priority. However, please note that the majority of these may be out of our control.
- Dynamic Features In Avatar Mode
[Sim Bug – Reported] It is a known issue that dynamic features present in the scenery, such as roof snow, snow berms, hangar lighting, and ambient SFX, do not trigger correctly if conditions change while in Avatar camera mode. All other aircraft cameras will allow the features to update correctly. - Grass Placement
[Sim Bug – Reported] It’s currently known that the default sim grass may ignore some aprons and not be excluded (a good example is the concrete driveway near one of the secondary airstrip houses). In the cases where the exclude is honored, there might be a slight offset removing grass that should not be excluded near the apron boundary.
