During WWII, the wolfpacks were having a field day in the Northern Atlantic when the RAF at Oban Scotland received the first Consolidated Catalina and three Ensigns from the US Navy to teach them how to fly it. 210 Squadron RAF received the Cats first, but by the end of the war, 330 (Norwgian) Squadron RAF and 10 Squadron RAAF were flying them out of Oban as well. This scenery recreates both the Oban of 1940 and the Oban of today. Lots of folks who fly the highlands fly Scotflight Sceneries' Highlands and Islands, so there is a compatible version of the 1940's and Modern Oban included in the download for these users as well as for default scenery users
The airport is Native FSX SP-2.
The original mesh for the static Catalinas is by Graham and Brendan (VB Planes) and was found at Freeflight Design Shop. It was perfect when I got it, any discontinuities were caused by me during conversion.
Original Buildings include:
All Buildings at the repair facility on the island of Kerrera in Ardentive Bay, both old and new.
The Caledonian Hotel
The Marine Hotel
McCaig's Tower
Dungallen House
The Seaplane Tenders
All others are generic buildings native to FSX
