PILOT’S is back to scenery launches for MSFS after a detour into the aircraft realm with the recent launch of the Boeing 314 Clipper. The developer is now bringing us two airports at the same time: W24 Falwell Airport and KLYH Lynchburg Regional Airport, both located in Virginia, USA. These airports provide unique challenges and experiences for virtual pilots flying in this region!
Lynchburg Regional Airport is a public-use airport in Campbell County, Virginia, first opened in 1931 as Preston Glenn Field Airport. It serves as a hub for general aviation while also hosting commercial flights by Piedmont and PSA Airlines on behalf of American Airlines.

W24 Falwell Airport, on the other hand, is a privately-owned general aviation airport situated near the intersection of Campbell Avenue and Richmond Highway in Virginia. The airport is located just 4 km from Lynchburg’s famous downtown Diamond Hill Historic District, making it a suitable destination for pilots flying in the area.
What sets W24 Falwell Airport apart is its exceptional ski-slope runway, which presents a thrilling challenge for virtual pilots. The 50-meter drop from the RWY 10 threshold and the steep incline when viewed from RWY 28 make for an exhilarating takeoff and landing experience, which you can now enjoy with your favorite GA aircraft in Microsoft Flight Simulator.
