Iditarod checkpoint #8

McGrath: Population 400 — McGrath is located in the interior of Alaska.The only way to get here is by airplane, unless you’re crazy enough to drive a snow-machine or mush your dog team on the Historic Iditarod Trail. The airport covers an area of 641 acres at an elevation of 341 feet. It has two runways: 16/34 is 6,000 by 100 feet with an asphalt surface and 5/23 is 2,000 by 60 feet with a gravel surface. It handles an average of 30 flights per day, 80% commercial, and 20% general aviation.

McGrath Airport is one of 24 airstrips and airports on the Iditarod Trail that runs from Anchorage to Nome. The Iditarod Airforce is a group of pilots who volunteer their time and planes to service the 24 race checkpoints. Their missions include delivering food for the teams, picking up injured sled dogs, and many other logistical services for the volunteers who manage the checkpoints.

In the future, I hope to build a Bush Trip that follows the entire Iditarod Trail from Anchorage to Nome, about 1,000 miles. However, after this one, there are another 2 air strips and airports that I will need to develop and add to the sim. I am trying to acurately represent them all using aerial photos and images I find on the internet and from the data on the AirNav and SkyVector web sites.
