Background

Originally located in the 'Honah Lee Bay' region, Honah Lee Field moved 700m (three sims) north to 'Honah Lee Surf' in January 2010. The aerodrome is currently home to AMOK Dynamics' Blake Sea showrooms and contains vendors and display models of their products.

Despite undergoing major renovations in the third quarter of 2013, Honah Lee Field has generally retained its original layout; consisting of a single asphalt runway (158m x 15m) running along the island's western edge and its hangar space, seaplane facilities and bar/lounge (Tailwinds) situated to the east.

In a bid to maximize taxi space for aircraft with large wing-spans, many of the airfield's buildings were demolished to provide a wide, paved, apron. Rather than clustering buildings at the center of the island, two new hangers were built along the region's eastern perimeter and a single hangar was raised just east of the runway. Tailwinds was relocated to the north end of the island under a new, purpose-built ATC tower which replaced the original wooden watchtower.

Between January and February 2015, following Whitewolf Mumfuzz's appointment as manager of Honah Lee Field, the single large hangar east of the runway was demolished and replaced with two smaller structures; one of which now houses Wuffy's flightschool, offering free flight training for prospective Second Life pilots. Simultaneously, the airfield gained a new combined terminal/ATC building and impemented a new set of guidelines banning suspected copyright-infringing aircraft from the facility.
