I don't know if such a scenery exists - and I'm pretty sure McMurdo/Scott doesn't have an ILS system in real life. There was a release of an Antarctic Mesh a while back, but I think it was for the other 'side' of Antarctica. unsure.gif

Thanks guys, I got McMurdo runway and station as well as others .Carried out a landing with an RAF C17 and managed to stop on the runway . Had to use a lot of balanced reverse thrust to make it stay stationary on the runway Very icy and slippery down there . No ILS ,manual landing very slow approach.
I would post a picture but it's difficult

There's no ILS - it'd be difficult to keep calibrated on a shifting, seasonal runway. There is a TACAN, however.

Search Avsim for NZIR and you'll find an afcad for it. That's what I used on my Back to Blighty tour.
