Description
Addition of the famous Alton Bay Seaplane Base Ice Runway in Alton Bay New Hampshire.
The strip is located about 10nm SE of the Laconia Airport (KLCI) and has a 01/19 runway configuration.
Alton Bay Seaplane Base has one seaplane landing area designated 1/19 and measuring 2,600 x 100 feet (792 x 30 m). For the 12-month period ending 31 December 2011, the airport had 600 general aviation aircraft operations, an average of 50 per month.
During the winter months, the base may seasonally open an ice runway instead of the normal seaplane landing area. This is the only FAA approved ice runway in the contiguous United States. The earliest the ice runway has opened is January 10. It is required to close no later than March 15.
Notes
The scenery works best with winter weather (snow within the 0 and 4cm ranges).
Known Issues
Short grass still spawns on ice apron (not sure if this is possible to remove with base MSFS SDK).
