They say size isn’t everything, and while a commercial aviation airport might say this doesn’t hold true, we certainly think it does for small runways that cover 90% of the landmass they’re situated on which is also encapsulated by a flowing body of water. What you’re looking at above, is WV08, or Scott’s Island, and it’s a grass strip scenery addon that CarbonProp has made for MSFS 2020 (yes it does actually exist!). This is a pretty cool place to practice your landing skills - or for pretending like you’ve conquered a very small part of the United States with your Cessna, but mainly try focusing on getting those flaps down at the right time yeah?

  • Scotts Island is a bar island on the Kanawha River between the towns of Belle and Chesapeake in Kanawha County, West Virginia

  • Perfect for a weekend getaway

  • ICAO: WV08, type this into the world map search after you’ve followed the install instructions below:
