PHOG Kahului Maui Approach landmark – Puunene Sugar Mill scenery, Hawaii
This scenery work compliments the approach into PHOG where Hawaii’s last operating Sugar Mill is a prominent landmark 1.5 nm from the runway. There is visual approach named after it – “Smoke Stack” approach for Rwy 2. The Hawaiian Commercial & Sugar Company mill stopped operating in December 2016 ending its 130 year life and with that Hawaiis sugar industry. This scenery brings it back to life for P3D V3 and V4 (earlier version and FSX should be fine) complete with steam and smoke effects in “cane crushing” season. As a Hawaiian Airline pilot stated – he had a lot of good time “crossing the mill” stabilized at 500ft on finals to PHOG Kahului, Maui.
