Health Bay CAD7 in British Columbia, Canada

File Description:
This is the fourth in a series of new and renovated float bases in BC. Health Bay is a small village on the west coast of Gilford Island, just 13 miles northwest of Minstrel Island (the previous post in this series). There is no fuel or oil available. The AI is a further adaptation of the original CF36 AI and involves a Baxter Beaver flying from Port Hardy on a round trip in the area through Port McNeill, Health Bay, Echo Bay, and Sullivan Bay. At Health Bay the AI appears to work for both landing and takeoff, though landing will still depend on wind direction. I have played with circuit height and runway length at Minstrel Island and there are improvements, so there is a Minstrel Island replacement bgl. All of these float bases can be installed together in the same folders, with a saving in duplicate textures. So a series called BC Floats (or whatever you want to call it) or individually installed float bases; your choice. The next in the series will be Echo Bay, shown in an included screenshot.

Helmericks 22AK on the North Slope, Alaska

File Description:
Helmericks is on the northern coast of Alaska, 150 miles east of Barrow and 50 miles west of Prudhoe Bay. It is on the shore of Colville Island in the delta of the Colville River, and hasn't changed much from when Harmon Helmericks set up house there in the late 1950's. He lived there with his wife and two sons guiding hunting trips and running a fishing operation, and then in 1966 he was involved in the first north slope exploratory oil well drilling operation by Sinclair Oil, which was to lead to the opening up of the north slope in the 1970's. Read "The last of the Bush Pilots" if you want to know more about it. The dirt runway is around 2,400 feet long (long enough for the Wien DC3 to get in with supplies) and the house is still there along with storage sheds. To the southwest are the other houses (three of them) which make up the rest of Colville Village. If you want to have the frozen lakes and river and sea then look for my recent post which will freeze them until you get bored and want to put your floats back on.

High Prairie CZHP in Alberta, Canada

• high_prairie-1.jpg

• high_prairie-3.jpg
• high_prairie-4.jpg

File Description:
High Prairie is at 1,974 feet asl, 15 miles west of Lesser Slave Lake, 70 miles southeast of Peace River CYPE, and 90 miles east of Grande Prairie CYQU (both already posted). The town has a population of around 2,600 and is based on agriculture, forestry, and oil and gas. The initial impetus behind its growth was the routing of the railroad in 1914. The airport is around 2 miles south of the town, and is fairly basic. There is a single runway just under 4,000 feet of asphalt aligned 07-25. There is a daily flight and around 2010 this was by Central Mountain Air. I believe that there is now a newer terminal building, but a lack of information leaves the older one in place here. There are runway and taxiway lights, unlike some of my recent posts. I made this to fill in the gap between Edmonton and the airports to the northwest such as Grande Prairie.

Minstrel Island CAX7 float base in British Columbia, Canada

Images related to this file:

• minstrel_island-1.jpg
• minstrel_island-2.jpg
• minstrel_island-3.jpg

File Description:
This is the third in a series of new and renovated float bases in BC. Minstrel Island is on the south side of Knight Inlet and 25 miles west of Knight Inlet Lodge (the previous post in this series). There is a resort on the island, though it is hidden from the air by the trees. Fuel and oil are both available at the dock, and there is a 17 feet tidal range, which would be interesting of it could be replicated in FS. The AI is an adaptation of that for CF36 and involves a GA Cessna, and a Seair Beaver flying from Campbell River to Knight Inlet Lodge via Minstrel Island. Again, because of large hills the landing of the AI may or may not take place, depending on wind direction and whether or not they fly into solid rock before landing. Take off and departure will take place. Ultimate Terrain Alaska/Canada would be a definite plus to get the water in the right shape and place. This scenery will not work without it.

Northbrook East CF47 and Northbrook West CF48, Ontario, Canada

File Description:
Thirty five miles north of the 401 on Highway 41 is a small town called Northbrook, and in the town itself is a dirt strip with a runway 11/29 1,830 feet long, which for the sake of telling them apart I have called Northbrook East. I have no idea of the history, or even of the reason why. Less than a mile west of the town is a second dirt strip with a runway 04/22 2,200 feet long. This one (Northbrook West) was built to support construction of the electrical power line installation and there is a dirt clearing between the strip and the power lines. There is absolutely nothing at either of these fields, no fuel, no oil, no hangar, and a very rough surface. Although I have made these as grass strips in fact they are dirt; the reason I didn't make them dirt is that dirt in FS9 stands out for miles and looks awful.
