FS2000 Scenery
Beluga Lake Floatplane Base
By Tom Fica
=======================================================================
Beluga Lake is the floatplane lake in Homer, Alaska. It is located just to the NW of the Homer airport (PAHO). It's a large lake capable of accomadating any amphibious aircraft.
This lake is not entirely flat, there is a noticable hump in the middle of it. Microsoft made it that way and because of it's proximity to the airport a flatten switch won't work. It doesn't seem to affect take-offs or landings, however if you can't live with it, you won't want to use this scenery.
