| Stewart CZST and CAC9 in British Columbia Canada, plus Hyder 4Z7 in AK |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Stewart is in northern British Columbia, around 115 miles north of Terrace, 70 miles northeast of the open sea, and 2 miles from the Canada/US border at the head of a fjord named the Portland Canal. Both Stewart and the nearby Hyder in AK thrived along with silver and gold mining in the early 1900's in the AK and BC interiors and in 1914 Stewart's population was over 10,000, but the current population is now less than 500. This scenery includes Stewart airport (CZST) and also Stewart floats (CAC9) plus Hyder floats 4Z7 which is within sight of Stewart but in Alaska. 4Z7 is based upon the three FSAddon freeware and payware Alaska sceneries, and without whichever one covers Hyder (I forget which) the float base will be isolated way offshore. The Stewart airport is adjacent to the town. There is a single runway that is unlit and just under 4,000 feet of asphalt aligned 18-36, with right hand circuits on 18; a brief view of the surrounding terrain makes it quite clear why. This version is for a period around 2010 to 2012 or so, before a second fuel tank was installed. There are no regularly scheduled flights to Stewart, only GA and charters, but the airport survives with the tourist trips. I have not forgotten the signage for CZST; there isn't any. There is also no clearly defined and fenced boundary to the airport, with a gravel apron beyond the asphalt that then fades to dirt and grass and a road. Hyder has no land connection to the rest of Alaska except through Stewart and a long road trip; the only direct link is by float plane to Ketchikan, 75 miles in a straight line. The AI includes this.

| Unalakleet PAUN scenery |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Unalakleet is located on the west coast of Alaska, on the Bering Sea. This is a complete and much more accurate rebuild of the default scenery. The missing village, roads, and the arm of the river that runs alongside the airport have been restored. This scenery was designed for use with Ultimate Terrain and was not tested in the default scenery. It may or may not work in FSX.

| Nenana PANN Runway and Taxiway Lighting in Alaska |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Nenana is in Alaska, and already posted here. This posting adds proper runway lighting to the two runways and also includes taxiway lights. Both runway and taxiway lights are visible during the day and at night there will be properly lit runway and taxiway lights. First of all, download and install the Library Objects once and for all from either the Allakaket Lights or Anaktuvuk Lights postings earlier this month. Put the bgl's into the existing scenery folder of your previous Nenana PANN installation and say yes to replace the existing bgl's that have the same names. Put the textures into the existing texture folder. There will be further retro upgrades to other recent scenery that was posted with temporary lighting. Say thank you to Greg Putz for making the lighting.

| PAMR (Merrill Field, Anchorage), 5HO (Hope), 9Z9 (Lawing) - Alaska, USA |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This stand-alone combined V2 version of Merrill Field 2016 includes: windsocks, a parked Fedex 727 that was recently donated to the University of Alaska, some missing taxiway lights, and small corrections to the apron layout. It also includes Hope 5HO and Lawing 9Z9. The 2016 version of Merrill Field PAMR dealt with a spectacular malfunction reported by one recent downloader; see the two screenshots. Merrill Field is in Anchorage Alaska, between Anchorage International to the southwest and and Elmendorf Air Force Base to the north. It caters for general aviation and is the land equivalent of the Lake Hood float plane base, with fuel and numerous maintenance facilities, and several hundred parking spots for small planes. There are three runways, and the longest is 4,000 feet of 100 feet wide asphalt, the second 2,635 feet of asphalt 75 feet wide, and the third 2,000 feet of 60 feet wide gravel. The first two have runway lights. It is a controlled airfield with a relatively new control tower to cater for the numerous flights and to coordinate with Elmensdorf and Anchorage International, the latter also controlling flights from Lake Hood and the adjacent gravel strip Z41 (see my Lake Hood scenery). The gravel runway at Merrill Field is not connected with active taxiways to the rest of the airfield; this avoids you being ordered to land on it when flying a plane too large to do so. The enclosed layout shows the runways and the taxiways complete with their assigned letters to help you find your way around, but note that this shows the current gravel runway with its wandering magnetic headings, not the ones prevailing when I made Merrill. The signage on the airfield is not total. The main taxiways are signed and each entry to a runway has a runway sign, but intermediate taxiways to or from a runway are not; if you have turned off the runway at the first possible exit you could then whether it is R or T is, I suppose, irrelevant. Try not to turn onto Merrill Field Drive at an intersection, this is a road that runs through the field. There are almost 50 buildings on the field and threequarters of them have been modelled from photographs specifically for this scenery; some of them were modelled from photos that were of not very good quality, but when the photos were taken I wasn't thinking that I would ever model the field. Which explains why there are buildings I had no photos of at all, of any sort of quality.

| Bethel area airfields in southwest Alaska close to the Yukon River |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This presumes you have already installed my post of Bethel PABE. In the Yukon River area of Alaska there are a lot of small villages close together, which is unusual for Alaska. Almost all of them are on the coast or a river bank, and the local economies depend on fishing. Some are larger than others and have a fish processing plant, such as in Emmonak. This is the largest such plant and it exports prepared fish by cargo planes which fly in on a daily basis, using an extended runway. This post includes airfields to the south and west of PABE, 17 of them; some of them already included and now modified. There will be more airfields to the north and northwest of Bethel in a future post. There are revisions to Bethel to include parking spaces for Yute Air (newly included here) and extra spaces for Ryan Air. Both of these flew Cessna 205 planes into the smaller village strips from Bethel (past tense as Yute Air recently went bankrupt). The northwest area is served both from Bethel and also from St Mary's PASM, which is in the northwest and at a more economical range to the local airfields (100 miles closer than Bethel). These smaller airfields have few airfield buildings or any other creature comforts; featuring heavily are a new standard blue garage building (sometimes not yet installed) and a small and old terminal shed (that has sometimes collapsed and been removed). Go to "http://vfrmap.com/" for free vfr maps of the area, There is a pic of the local chart area included here. The screenshots are a random sample. Kipnuk PAKI is the one that appears to have a second and long grass runway; what it actually has is the ground prepared for a new and long gravel runway but which hasn't been started yet as it has taken 10 years just to prepare the ground. I have no idea why.

| Pemberton CYPS in British Columbia Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Pemberton is a small village in the Coast Mountains of British Columbia, with a permanent population of under 3,000 and reliant on logging and increasing tourism. It is around 40 miles north of Squamish and 15 miles north of Whistler and the flight north is best described as scenic. The Nairn Falls, a scenic attraction for tourists, are close by. The runway is 3,920 feet of asphalt aligned 06-24, between and close to the join of the Lillooet River and the Green River. The airfield buildings are to the north of the runway, and at the eastern end is a Fire Base for the expected summer forest fires. To the south and west is the Pemberton Golf Course. All the buildings are replicated, and once again this is not an airport, it is an airfield without any lighting and typical of my future posts which are updated versions of airfield scenery made some time ago and not posted. This one is probably more intricate than most that will follow. The lack of lighting is actually very sensible as landing in the mountains in the dark..... Gun Lake is included here, but not for regular use as it is a deserted dirt strip 40 miles to the north that was once used for fire fighting and there is nothing to see. Just a part of the scenery in this area of BC. If you want to follow this trip on Google Earth the next stop is Cache Creek. If you find a defect, email me. Do not email me about the strange doors to the front of the Blackcomb hangar. I was surprised when I saw it and then discovered that the "doors" are actually flexible curtains that are rolled up and down and if rolled down too far...
I have the ok to use the Bell 212 CCG helicopter as a scenery object, but not to post the entire object library of the Red Deer CYQF scenery; if you have the scenery it should show up here.

| 9A8 - Ugashik, PAII - Egegik, AK96 - Bartletts, AK36 - Coffee Point , Alaska, USA |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
All four of these depend heavily on fishing but two of them only spring into existance during the salmon catching-and-canning season. Grant Air run scheduled flights to the two permanent settlements, and there are irregular scheduled flights and charters to the others according to demand. Ugashik is a permanent settlement 60 miles northeast of Port Heiden, stretched out along the east bank of the Ugashik River. There are two canneries, one old and collapsing and the other newer and functioning. The population is given as 12, though during the season this increases significantly. The (newer) airfield is at the northern end of the village with a gravel runway 3,500 feet long aligned 06-24. Egegik is the second permanent settlement, 45 miles north of Ugashik and 40 miles southwest of King Salmon, on the east bank of the Egegik River. The town is on a corner of land, with a population of around 110 and two operating canneries. The airport is a mile and a half south of the town with two gravel runways, 12-30 at just under 5,600 feet and 03-21 with 1,500 feet; both are lit. On the other side of the Egegik River are more canneries and two airfields, both of which have two runways but are otherwise entirely without facilities or luxuries such as lights. They are called Bartletts (named for the cannery it serves) and Coffee Point (named for the location). The shacks of the seasonal fishermen are strung out along the coast and a lot of the salmon fishing is by net, laid by a small boat and later pulled ashore for emptying. Only one cannery on the west shore has a docking facility for unloading boat-caught fish.

| Lake Hood AI for LHD and Z41 in Anchorage Alaska |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This has two float planes doing touch-and-goes on the lake and some planes taking off and landing on Lake Hood Airstrip Z41. This update (20 July 2010) revises the Z41 AI as I discovered that touch-and-goes do not work in FS9 on a runway that is under 4,000 feet, so they have been modified to flights between Z41 and PANC. It is a self contained update that includes the one new building that is modelled specifically for this scenery, plus some minor corrections such as moving a plane from where it is parked on top of a car. You should have already installed my recent post (July 2010) of Lake Hood LHD and the Lake Hood Airstrip Z41.
