Support · Pay what you want

Free to use/build. Supporter to go big.

Right now I run every build myself - on one desktop and two laptops at home. That's the whole render farm. Fly and build as much as you want for free; every contribution goes straight into more capacity and faster builds - and into paying real artists, not AI, to make custom 3D models built just for Project Airports, beyond the stock MSFS library everyone already has.

Who's behind this
Justice McCracken at the airfield with a light sport aircraft

Hi, I'm Justice.

You might know me as McCrackenAir- I was one of the founding members of SayIntentions.AI, and I'd spent years in and out of flight sim communities before that. Away from the screen I run my own solar repair service - inspection, repair and recovery of abandoned solar installations - and I'm a student pilot, slowly working toward my certificate with a soft spot for light sport aircraft and backcountry flying.

Building airports has been my favorite part of simming for as long as I can remember - recreating the places that mean something to me, and tucking little backcountry strips into the corners of the map. The building was never the problem. Sharing them was. Every time I wanted a friend to fly one of my fields it meant talking them through installing a scenery package - and then doing it all over again after the next sim update. Some of my friends are busy chasing their CFI, some are dads without a spare hour, and my best friend - I say this with nothing but love - is a complete idiot who couldn't install a scenery package if his life depended on it. Most people just don't want to dig through files and folders to land on a runway.

I sat on the idea for years: there had to be a simpler way to share what I build. Last year it turned into something bigger - what if my friends could build their own strips too, without any of the hard parts? That's what Project Airports is. You design an airport in your browser, and it shows up in MSFS 2024 - yours and everyone else's - with no wrestling with installs.

And the whole thing is still just me: a desktop with two laptops stacked on top of it making up the entire "build farm," running flat out through a lot of late nights. It's honestly still a little ghetto. Chipping in helps us get a proper server hosting setup, and pay real artists to build new 3D models for Project Airports' future updates. Thanks for being here - it means more than you know.

- Justice
