CALIFORNIA CENTRAL COAST SCENERY
FOR MICROSOFT'S FSX WITH MEGASCENERY EARTH AND FSGENESIS MESH TERRAIN
CCFSXMSG.ZIP 9/25/09 By Al Wheeler

DESCRIPTION:
This scenery covers the California coastal region from N36°10' (Coalinga) to N34°25' (Santa Barbara) and from the coast East to W119°40'.  It is a version of my previous California Central Coast scenery redesigned and expanded to work with MegaScenery Earth from PC Aviator Inc. and FSGenesis USA 9.6m Terrain Mesh for FSX V2 by Justin Tyme.  Many airstrips in the area covered by this scenery have been added or enhanced for a total of 27 airports/airstrips in the area.  6 imaginary water runways are also added for AI float plane traffic.  Several areas of interest such as the Santa Barbara marina, Morro Bay, etc. are also included for a total of 41 points of interest.  All airports, airstrips and related structures have been adjusted and realigned to conform to actual positions and dimensions as indicated by the MegaScenery satellite textures.   

MegaScenery California-13, -14 and -15 are required for this scenery to make sense.  I also used California-12, -28 and -29 when constructing the scenery but they could be considered optional.  I purchased CA-12 because the transition from CA-13 to default cuts right through Hearst Castle plus CD-12 includes Hunter Liggett and Big Sur.  CA-28 adds 1 more airport and 3 airstrips plus Priest VOR/RCAG.  CA-29 adds 4 airstrips plus PRB ARSR.  None of these three are essential but they fill out the CCC area nicely.  I found that many of the default airports and airstrips in the CCC area were inaccurately placed and aligned to varying degrees.  In this scenery they are all adjusted to agree with the real world as displayed by MegaScenery.
