OR74 Winkle Bar Airstrip

for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024

Winkle Bar represents a remote and historical riverside airstrip along the Rogue River in southern Oregon, set within a narrow canyon of rugged forest and steep terrain. The area is now managed as public land and remains largely unchanged, accessible only by hiking, boating on the river, or flying in.

Historically associated with author Zane Grey, whose former cabin sits near the airstrip, Winkle Bar has long served as a seasonal access point for river travelers, pilots, and land management operations. During the summer months, the airstrip supports active forest firefighting efforts, providing backcountry access when needed. The cabins in the area can also be used as overnight stay locations.

This scenery includes modeled cabins, riverbanks, and nearby trails that define the layout of the site. Zane Grey’s cabin and surrounding property have been recreated in detail as a prominent landmark along the river. Be sure to take a moment to find Zane Grey’s early riverboat, included as a small historical detail from the area’s early days.

The airport is built with custom models throughout and includes subtle animated wildlife to add quiet movement to the landscape. Designed for backcountry flying, this add-on emphasizes atmosphere, function, and the sense of isolation that defines Winkle Bar.
