Check out these cool link www.bannermancastle.org/www.bannermancastle.org/photogallery.htmOk, perhaps I am a little bit biased since having grown up in the Hudson Valley, but I think the remains of Barnnermans castle located in the middle of the Hudson River near Beacon and Newburgh, NY would for an outstanding scenery, not to mention being appropriate for a haunted hause package! The castle was built for Francis Bannerman, an ecentric businessman, who purchased all of the surplus arnament from the Spanish American War from the US military. The design of the castle is based on castles from Scotland, Mr. Bannerman's native country. Sincerely, Walter

Yes Walter, a great landmark. I floated past that place a few times.It just makes you look at it kinda with your mouth open.Like most great things its just taken for granted. Like West Point not far from there,and the Stewart AFB then.Ole Henry Hudson would have been impressed. As far as a Sim recreation of this place,there is only one person here who can do it,then, only if its for his pleasure,of which he unselfishly shares with all of us...Mr. Mocat is the man.But of course! Thanx Vin PS If I remember correctly, the "strippers" were great to catch then,,,,in the 30s, 40s ,and 50s. PS that Connie still at Greenwood lake airport??? Skytop ,Sullivan County,Monticello,were my home airports this one!

That would so cool if Mocar did that but no pressure on the guy as he's busy with his vintage Maine scenery for FSX. The Bannerman castle scenery would be appropriate for both vintage and mondern scenery.
