Lower Kuskokwim Delta AI Project for FS2004
The Lower Kuskokwim Delta AI project is the work of Iain Foulds, resident of Tuntutuliak (A61), approximately 45 miles south along the Kuskokwim River from Bethel. A flight simulator user since MS Flight Sim 5 (the days of floppy disks!) and inspired by experiencing the bush aviators and aircraft firsthand, hopefully this will encourage other virtual pilots to take on the challenges of remote flying in the south west of Alaska.
Anyone willing to help out with the project is more than welcome, simply get in touch with me! I also welcome all comments, questions, suggestions and (constructive, please!) criticism.
To highlight some of the planes flying in the area and to allow you to compare them to AI aircraft you'll see in flight simulator, here is a selection photos I've taken from my time living out here:
