CAQ8 Powell Lake Seaplane Base - supplement
Powell Lake Seaplane Base is a small seaplane base located on Powell Lake, British Columbia, Canada and serviced by Harbour Air with flights to Vancouver.
This package is a supplement to the default MSFS airport CAQ8 and adds docks, pontoons, boats and a dock parking place for selection for those ‘cold and dark’ startups.
The original Asobo CAQ8 ‘airport’ consists of only water ‘runway’ start/takeoff positions.
NOTE the images are taken with boats from mamu’s marina (see below) installed. Using only Asobo boat objects would be too repetitive as there are only 2.
