I wonder if anyone has come across Float Plane bases in FS2004? Would be interested in finding a few to polish my skills in following flight rules rather than just landing indiscriminately at any water location.

Thanks, Jay

I've been looking for a way to start a flight already on the water with no success. I intend to keep searching though.

Seaplane stations are programed into FS 2004-- just like land airports.
They are indicated on sectional charts by an "anchor" symbol. One such seaplane station is on the Chicago sectional, about 10 south of Madison, Wisconsin. The airport identification code is "99C". Type that code number into FS2004 and you will be placed in the water at Quams Marina,
which is 843 feet above sea level. I have seen a "bunch" of anchor symbols on the sectional charts. Pick out some of them and start your seaplane flight from the water.
