To install this scenery simply unzip to your addon scenery folder, then start fs2k2 and go to settings/scenery library/add area/ - then browse to your addon scenery folder and then Larcom Island. Click OK. There is no need for a flattening switch but YOU WILL NEED Gerrish's Trees Library - Release 3, with the archive name TREES_V3.ZIP from any FS library. This airport will show up in the AIRPORT FACILITIES DIRECTORY as Larcom Island, the 'city' will be Kitsault and the CODE is LAR.
Larcom Island is located north of Prince Rupert, British Columbia, Canada. The nearest settlement is Kitsault (I think it used to be called Alice Arm)
This is a totally fictitious ranger base, complete with watchtower on the hill north of the airstrip. I was actually inspired to do this for two reasons. 1: The area is breathtakingly beautiful (best with Holger's mesh - see comparison jpg's) and 2: So I'd have a base in BC to hop up North (my favorite stomping ground) and zip west to Grey Otter Landing to see my buddy GeeMan!
I put in a longish asphalt runway to encourage visiters!! Don't worry, there's a float plane dock as well. (Feel free to come and borrow the 185 at the dock!) The 'barracks' next to the L-shaped ranger station is a very warm and comfortable place to rest. There is a HeliPad, too, for the hard core chopper pilots. (And, yes, it is night lit) If your plane needs fixing there are facilities for that, too.
Macros and programs by the following:
Frank Betts (almost everything!), Gerrish Gray (You'll need his trees v3), Dan Geis (watchtower), Danny Levin (HeliPad and wooden pier) and Trevor de Stigter (static aircraft)
If I forgot somebody PLEASE accept my apology!
My special thanks go to Geeman (Dale Westlund) for his help and support! Also to Holger Sandmann for his wonderful mesh!
Any problems you might have with this scenery, please feel free to write and I will try to help. I have tested this with and without Holger's mesh and it works with either. I am not sure if you will need VODTEX or other "essential" textures. If something shows up as a white statue, then you probably need one of the texture packages. They can all be found at various FS libraries.
