Illinois Valley Regional Airport, also known as Walter A. Duncan Field, is a key aviation facility in north-central Illinois. Located just northwest of Peru, this airport has been serving the region since its opening in 1985. With two paved and lighted runways, KVYS accommodates a variety of aircraft, ranging from single-engine planes to business jets like the Global Express. The airport is well-equipped with GPS and localizer approaches, making it a reliable hub for general aviation and corporate travel. A particularly noteworthy feature of KVYS is its annual TBM Avenger Reunion, an event that draws aviation enthusiasts to witness one of the remaining TBM Avenger aircraft in action. The aircraft, permanently based at the airport, is housed in a dedicated hangar, which has been faithfully recreated in this new scenery add-on.
The released freeware add-on by dvlcreations brings KVYS to life with a detailed and accurate rendition of the airfield. The scenery features custom 3D hangars and objects crafted in Blender, as well as recent construction projects, including new hangars and extended taxiways, are represented.
The airport’s convenient location near major highways and attractions like Starved Rock State Park makes it an appealing virtual destination.
