- 105433 – N8033F 01/27/2025Cheat River Island recently hit the sectional as FAA: 56WV. Developed for X-Plane 12; lack of water OSM data really diminishes this approach, but the airport will be ready for when water appears. Nestled near Rowlesburg, WV this strip hosts the Cheat River Fly-in two times per year. Real world pilots who wish to practice prior to flying in, can find additional scenery here which I developed with input from the property owner and event coordinator: https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/86389-cheat-river-island-for-x-plane-11-and-12/ Pilots are encouraged to land on Runway 30 and take off Runway 12. Blue skies and tail winds!Approved Recommended
