File Description:
Fort Resolution is on the south side of Great Slave Lake, 75 miles east of Hay River and just west of where the Slave River flows into the lake from Fort Smith. Fort Resolution, the oldest community in the Territories and once a vital link in the fur trade business, is a small town with a population of around 500. It was not included in the original FS9 or Ultimate Terrain so I have added it here. The airfield is next to the town on the lakeshore. The runway is 4,000 feet of gravel with a displaced threshold at the southern (town) end; it is lit and there is PAPI. There are no scheduled flights to Fort Resolution, just occasional charters; the AI includes a stock FS9 Cessna and a Wasaya Airways PC12.
