World Update X: United States and US Territories is here, and with it comes four bespoke airports to visit!
Catalina Island is located about 25nm southwest of Los Angeles, California. This airport is perched atop a small plateau surrounded by more rugged terrain below. Make sure you don't overrun the runway when landing or you'll discover the sheer drop at either end of it!
Located about 105nm east of Anchorage, Valdez Airport is surrounded by mountains to the north, south and east, so there's not much room for error when landing here. Make sure you have a way out should you need it!
Situated on the border of California and Nevada is Lake Tahoe, one of the most popular skiing destinations in the United States. The airport is located just south of the lake. It's easy to get distracted by its beauty when approaching Lake Tahoe Airport. This high-altitude airport requires a bit more attention as it's also surrounded by mountainous terrain!
And finally, Block Island State Airport is located on Block Island, a small island about 34nm south of Providence, Rhode Island. How many times can we say island in one sentence? At least four, apparently. Anyway, terrain is not something you need to worry about here. Instead, it's the 2502-foot runway. Make sure to choose a suitable aircraft! Or don't, and challenge yourself to land on a short runway in whatever aircraft you want!
