File Description:
Lady Franklin Point was a DEW line station on the southwest corner of Victoria Island, and then a North Warning System station until January 2000 when there was a fire. As a result there are now no NWS buildings, and no central long DEW line station building, only the outlying and already unused buildings from the DEW line site. However, the runway is still there and over 5,000 feet of gravel in length, aligned and signed 90T/270T, though on the atc it will be called 55/235 as FS9 knows nothing about the Canadian Northern Domestic Airspace. There is no runway lighting. Kugluktuk is around 80 miles to the southwest, on the mainland. I should have mentioned a long time ago that to see the apron lights working (on my fields that HAVE apron lights) requires you to have the "lights_ss_v2" by Sidney Schwartz installed.
