Located on the northwestern coast on the island of Oahu, Hawaii
Dillingham Airfield, also known as Kawaihapai Airfield, and the surrounding northern shore of Oahu have been hand-crafted to replication in this scenery enhancement package for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020. Originally opened in 1941 as a US Army Airfield, the airfield has since been leased to the State of Hawaii. Today, Dillingham Airfield is a public airport located on the Dillingham Military Reservation. The 5,000 foot unlit runway now primarily serves glider and skydiving operations. The US Military still uses the airfield for air-land operations and helicopter night-vision training. The short drive from Honolulu provides tourists to the island the opportunity to experience Oahu from gliders, ultralight aircraft, and skydiving operations.

I've taken a few flights out of this scenery so far. I am a power user that runs Ultra, and with tweaked cfg file to achieve very high LODs. This scenery performs flawlessly. It looks next level, and had no impact on FPS. Another welcome addon to MSFS Hawaii. Great job South Oak Co
This is the airport I was waiting for from South Oak. As I own all the other Hawai'ian airports from them I knew that I was not going to be disappointed... Now that they released it all I can say is: WOW! They did a brilliant job with this airport. I remember PHDH personally very well, because I was a couple of times there for solo skydiving, and this recreation brings back so many great memories. I see no FPS impact, textures are really great and this airport is a great start or stopover for flying Kaua'i. I am very much looking forward to all other coming airports from South Oak, they bring the Hawai'ian islands in MSFS truely to life!
Another fantastic scenery from the team! This product not only has the usual excellent level of detail at the airfield, but has also added significant detail and improvements to the surrounding area, making the experience even better. Can't wait to see what else these guys have coming!
Absolutely gorgeous scenery! I didn't know a lot about South Oak Co before, but I sure am paying attention now! I hope they keep putting out sceneries; they certainly know what they're doing when it comes to the Islands. Mahalo!

As usual from south oak, a loving design of the airport with great textures, lots of details and without any relevant influence on the frame rate. Absolute buy recommendation.
Lovingly designed airport with very good textures, a lot of details and without noticeable impairment of the frame rate, which is convincing in every respect. I can only recommend the scenery.
