Developper's remark: I'm sorry to have created this airfield which already exist as a freeware by Mountainair. I wanted to "finish" all fields of the San Diego area and forget to double check. My bad. Nevermind, it took me only one afternoon to build this tiny field. Now you have the choice!

"Flying over, or driving by on Interstate 8, you might miss tiny Jacumba. But hundreds of soaring enthusiasts know the airport and some even know where the town is. However, few people know what Jacumba is all about.

On weekends you’ll find sail planes being towed aloft to catch the thermals, with pilots who savor the solitude and challenge of powerless flight. During the week the airport is quiet, inhabited by hawks and their prey." Source: https://www.sandiegocounty.gov/content/sdc/dpw/airports/jacumba.html

Jacumba is the home of the Associated Glider Clubs of Southern California (AGCSC) flying every Saturday. Jacumba is part of County of San Diego airport and one of my freeware covering GA airports.

Author's final note

As for all of my MSFS mod, this small scenery is made from a pilot-eyes perspective. The scenery is inspired by aerial views from Bing and Google maps. It's a mix between the satellite imagery displayed from MSFS and more accurate data found on Internet. I did my best, based on online videos and pictures freely available. If you have local pictures to help being more accurate, please let me know!
