High Voltage is the latest product by (crazy) developer Parallel 42 (//42 for shorts).
This scenery revolves around a “privately owned farm strip nestled amidst breathtaking hills, just a 10-mile flight from 42BC Bush Plane Campout.”. The scenery was made specifically for STOL aircraft. If you are looking for a challenge, the approach will give you just that as you will have to be extra careful with nearby high-voltage power lines, adding an extra thrill. As //42 say, “if you can hear the buzzing, you're too close”!
Or perhaps that’s part of the fun? You decide.
If you are a user of //42’s Campout, this scenery goes hand-in-hand with it as well and, yes, it does have helipads too!
You can get //42’s High Voltage at the official website.
