Seaplane bases

Good afternoon all... :)

Had a friend over who looked at my FSX and I showed him my flight from Ketchican to Juneau Alaska using MoCats Snow Dog Tours. Lots of seaplane bases to drop into.

He fell in love with the scenery and now would like to install MoCats Snow Dog Tours on his FS2004 but we are not sure it will work.  He does not have FSX.

If MoCats Snow Dog Tours will not work in FS2004 is there another freeware package available with lots of seaplane bases?  I just went through 140 +- pages of the FS2004 Scenery downloads and didn't see anything.
Perhaps I missed something.

A "Link" or information would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.   :)

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

I suggest a visit to flightsim.com's library and conduct a search for "Glacier Bay".

Among the 20 or so returns is Glacier Bay V2 by the team led by Holger Sandmann.

This is a must have for FS9, make sure to get V2, it is in 2 parts.

The file names are - glbayv2a.zip and glbayv2b.zip

Includes 16 floatplane bases.

Also seen in those search results is

[color=#000000]I have several addons for FS9 that have docks, etc. I can't remember the names right now but I will take a look and post the list later.

Look also for Holger's FS9 'Tongass Fjords' - down around the PAKT area.

Not seaplane bases I know, but if your friend goes for the Tongass Fjords package (It is excellent!), then get him to have a look at the Stikine Ice Fields Research add on here: http://edtruthan.com/sirp/sirpmanual.htm

It really is an excellent addition with snow covered landing strips, snow blowing across the tundra & a whole host of 'camps' to visit - all with NDB's, no GPS rubbish here.  [smiley=thumbup.gif]
