LOIJ near where I live

This is a landing at St. Johann (LOIJ) near LOW in MSFS:

Hey there Karl - there is two versions of LOIJ on the flightsim.to site:

https://flightsim.to/discover?s=loij

You'll have to give both a try and let us know which one is closest to the real thing? then we can come and meet you there at the right St. Johann Airfield!

GAYA Simulations will be releasing LOIJ for MSFS through Orbx in the near future which I will get.  I assume two different users can use MSFS multiplayer while each has a different addon of the same location.  Any reason why that wouldn't work...just wondering....

As always, if you have not been there then both will do. If you know the place you want the first one, the one from Sven Schill, although the caffeteria there doesn't sell Krombacher beer anymore. Those labels have changed.

I'm really curious about Gayas implementation then. I'll check it.

A friend of mine is operations manager at LOIJ and he told me that they are getting emails from scenery builders asking for photographs, distance measurements etc.... since MSFS 2020 is out.

Hi Karl,

Great charts!   Thanks!  Austria is my newest focus area for VFR flying in MSFS.  I pretty much only use Orbx distributed airports and I have all of the the MSFS airports that have been released for Austria at this point.  They are LOWI, LOWS, LOWW, LOWZ and soon I will be able to get LOIJ.   You are lucky to live in such a beautiful place.

Hi Karl,

Gaya's LOIJ should be available on Orbx tomorrow if they are on schedule.  The video for LOIJ in Orbx Direct is very relaxing.  Does is look pretty realistic to you (since you are living in the area)?

There is a good flight plan- Mission across the  Alps- in the FlightSimto.—Bush Trips section
Includes some of these new airstrips
Very very scenic in MSFS2020

Austria has to be one of the nicest places to fly! The approach into LOWI, for one, is fantastic!! And LOIJ Gaya, hmmm, well I'll get that one for sure to be able to meet up with Karl with a bit of reality at his home airport!

...to meet up with Karl with a bit of reality at his home airport!

Looking forward to that!

Cool video, Karl!   I will have to get it later today.   Didn't know that they let you land on taxiways in Austria or is that just a local rule....

They actually would take my license (if I had one).
