File Description:
The village of Lucky Lake is 80 miles south of Saskatoon, with a small population of less than 300, most of whom are dependant on agriculture for income, either directly or indirectly. Marijuana is a recently introduced crop after the failure of a government-financed potato growing operation called SPUDCO. The village was previously known as Devil's Lake (don't ask me, I don't know). The airfield is half a mile north of the village, with an asphalt runway just over 3,000 feet long, lit, and aligned 07-25 in FS9; this has now changed to 08-26 with the wandering magnetic north. Circuits on 25 are right handed to avoid over-flying the village. 100LL fuel is available.
