Hey Guys,

I have run into some problems. I am doing some "Historical" flights useing Seaplanes but some of the places I would like to takeoff from don't have Water Launching Points for seaplanes.

Can anyone suggest a simple download that will let you put water launch points for seaplanes & floatplanes into any body of water near an already established land runway?

Thanks. Any help will be greatly appreciated. 👍

<S>!

There are quite a few in the three pages I linked to.

Thanks for the effort Radarman. Much appreciated.

But I got to find a way to get a water launch point at WAKE ISLAND, GUAM & near MANILA, P.I. I am planning on retracing the flight of the "CHINA CLIPPER."

There are some good terrains for Wake Island but every one of them forgot to put in a water launch - there is even a seaplane ramp on the terrain but you can use it. 🙄 So I got to figure out how to put in my own on an already established terrain.

If any of you "Techie Types" got any advice on this subject I would be very grateful if you could help me out on the project.

Thanks.
