China Lake

[ddom2006]

NAWS China Lake doesn't have runways in Orbiter? This made it a little embarrassing to glide to a smoothe touchdown there :lol:. Is this deliberate or a bug with my installation?

For the record , I took back off again and flew to Vandenberg AFB and made a successful landing, just this time, on a runway :thumbup:

The whole China Lake IS a runway made of hardened salt :lol:

There doesn't seem to be anything there at all though? No base, no runways, no markings, just... desert :lol:

From the pics I can find on the Net, there is an airforce base there, with three concrete runways. And looks like some people are living there after all. Other than that, it's a desert

Presumably it just hasn't been created in anything other than name on Orbiter?

Looks like it exists in an add-on bases pack :
