The Spruce Creek fly-In community and private airport, 7FL6, https://SpruceCreekMSFSaddon.com is a beautiful and magical place in Port Orange, FL, in the United States, a community where you live with airplanes in their constant company. Next to friends and neighbors who share a love for flying. The roads are often taxiways that allow you to taxi directly to the private runway from your hangar/garage adjacent to your home. At the intersections, of course, cars and golf carts must give priority to airplanes. A very special place.
I tried to recreate the atmosphere of the Spruce Creek community in the best possible detail for the Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020. This offering comes in what is effectively two separate addons:
- The Airport greater area, available here at SimMarket, that includes the runway and taxiways, as well as individually crafted accurate buildings of businesses like The Downwind, the stores, offices and hangars around the runway. Also, houses and house hangars in the areas within a quarter of a mile, or so, around the runway.
- The community around the greater Airport area to beyond the confines of the community, which is freeware, available at the dedicated website (https://SpruceCreekMSFSaddon.com) created using in major part imagery data from Google. The Addons were crafted in the MSFS Bing Photogrammetry environment, and are best experienced with Photogrammetry switched ON at the data options of MSFS.
This work was done in memory of Costas and his wife Lindsey, residents of Spruce Creek. Costas owned a private plane, a V-tail Bonanza 35, and he was a First Officer on 757/767 aircraft for United Airlines. Lindsey was a Flight Attendant. Both Costas and Lindsey “flew west”, as is said for pilots, together, in a fatal plane accident in the Rocky Mountains on October 5, 2020, four days after their wedding. Their plane which they called “Baby Blue”, tail number N4444K, is permanently parked in its usual spot in the Airport scenery.
