A product of VTOL Aviation:https://sites.google.com/view/vtol-aviation/home (updated website coming soon)
The latest airport developed by VTOL Aviation is KSMO SantaMonica Municipal Airport! Santa Monica Airport is a Class D airport nestled below the LAX Class B. SMO is predominantly a General Aviation airport, handling nearly 300 operations a day. Due to significant residential development around the airport, SMO is widely renowned for enforcing one of the most stringent noise ordinances in the nation, so be sure to keep those decibels low! While you’re visiting, drop by Proteus Flight Services Flight School to touch up on your flying skills, or pop over to the nearby Airport Park to enjoy the weather.
SMO has seen many facelifts in recent years. In 2017, theCity of Santa Monica reduced the runway from 5000 feet to 3500 feet in order to discourage jet traffic, leaving 750 feet at both ends as blast pads. The summer of 2020 saw the airport remove those blast pads and replace them with grass. As of 2019, a judge had ordered that the airport will be shut down in 2028, so get your flights in while you can!
In an attempt to accommodate a variety of preferences, thisrelease includes both the pre-Summer 2020 blast pad variant and the Fall 2020 grass variant of SMO. You will see two folders:
Pre-Summer 2020 Version: "vtolaviation-ksmo"
Fall 2020 Version: "vtolaviation-ksmo_FA2020"
