FS2004 Scenery--Sunnyvale Air Station circa 1933, California (CA) (KNUQ). Known for 75 years as Moffett Field Naval Air Station, this unique site started life as Sunyvale Field (then Air Station) and was planned as the west coast base of the new dirigible U.S.S. Macon. The Macon was a new direction for airships in that it carried a squadron of fighter/scout aircraft and would provide for the U.S. Navy a 'carrier in the sky'. This scenery attempts to capture Sunnyvale as it was first opened in 1933. A few liberties have been taken like adding in full grown trees that were part of the original master plan but you will find this base captures the spirit of the original. Scenery contains custom FSDS and Gmax models as well as period AI. By John Stinstrom.
