FS2004 – St Paul Island

 

FS2004 – St Paul Island (PASN) in Alaska, (AK), USA. This is Saint Paul Island airport, plus the town and the harbor. St Paul is in the Pribilof group of five islands and the town has a population of less than 600, with only one processing plant (Trident) and a small harbor, 260 miles north of Dutch Harbor. The AI includes a PenAir flight, a Coast Guard C-130, and Coast Guard helicopters. The sea AI includes a fishing boat and a Coast Guard cutter. The Coast Guard C-130 and helicopter flights are to Dutch Harbor, so both sceneries are required to make it work as it should. The airport has 6500 feet of 150 feet wide asphalt with 1000 feet of over-run at each end, aligned 36/18, lit, and with two aprons at the southern end. There is no hangarage except for Coast Guard helicopters. In real life the runway slopes up to the north by over 60 feet, but in FS2004 it doesn’t; hence the change in airport elevation to 80 feet ASL to get the northern end out of an even worse box canyon.
