Located on the Southern coast on the island of Kauai, Hawaii
Port Allen Airport is brought to life in this scenery enhancement package for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020. A public use airport located on the shores of Kauai, Port Allen is a regional airport that primarily serves general aviation and regional air taxi services. The airfield serves as a tourism hub providing tourists the opportunity to skydive, fly a trike ultralight, and cruise the island airspace via helicopter. The Northwestern shores of the field are bordered by the stunning salt pond beach, where the soft sand transitions to a rocky coast line. The local Hawaiian town of Hanapepe borders the airport to the Northeast, followed by a sheltered harbor.

I was pleasantly surprised by the way that SOC captured the beauty of this small airfield. Well done & highly recommended! Keep the Hawaiian airports coming, PLEASE!
True to the actual airport as seen in Google maps. I try to fly real time and weather and was challenged with the 208 caravan and a low cloud, rainy approach. Also a helicopter port and we have our first helos to try out over Kaua'i. Real attention to detail. Looking forward to more
Lovely little airport! The attention to detail is fantastic! I had some issues during installation but the support from the publisher was excellent, and all is working fine! Waiting for more Hawaiian airports :)
Fantastic scenery from this developer, going to give ya a pass this round as you're new. I have this dev's other Hawaii scenery as well and its great too. Both scenerys contain modlib.bgl. ASOBO made it clear many months ago that not naming this file to something else causes conflicts, as in half loaded scenery, broken live weather and traffic, and most import CTDs. I have renamed this myself. Please in the future keep this in mind. Not every user can recognize this or knows to check for it. Five star scenery otherwise
A welcome addition to the region. If you haven't seen MSFS' default landscape for this part of Kauai, and how bland it is, you won't be able to fully appreciate the work put into the airport and surrounding scenery by the developer. Good value for the money!
