| PABR - Barrow - Alaska, USA |

File Description:
The town of Barrow is in the far north of Alaska, and is best known in flying circles as the place where Wiley Post crashed his floatplane on takeoff and killed himself and Will Rogers. The crash was some 15 miles south of Barrow and was "assisted" by the mismatched fuselage, wings, and floats that had been assembled to create the floatplane. The Barrow population is largely Inupiat and totals some 4,400. The downtown area of Barrow is immediately north of the airport. The second and largest part of Barrow is further north past a string of lagoons and is locally called Browerville. To the northeast along the coast is the smallest part around what used to be the Naval Arctic Research Lab, and is now a college. To the east of this are the DEW buildings, plus two large navy hangars and the gravel runway that was used to serve the DEW station. The PABR runway is aligned 06-24 in FS9 and is 7,100 feet long and 150 feet wide, built on top of a gravel base and surround that copes with the underlying permafrost. There is PAPI at both ends and an ILS and approach lights on 06; 06 circuits are to the right. The airport notes include a warning that the apron is not a standard width and that large planes that are enroute to the far end of the runway will not be able to taxi past a plane parked at the gate and should use the runway as a taxiway, then turn and takeoff. FS9 AI cannot cope with that, so the apron here is wider. There are, in real life and the AI, daily flights by Air Alaska (three at least) and Era (several, and which is now called Ravn, hence the new hangar door motif) and air cargo flights by Northern Air Cargo and Everts, plus GA. The buildings have been made with photographic textures or textures made from reference photos. I decided that while 500+ scenery objects was probably ok for most people the required 900+ to "make" the town of Barrow would likely not be. The auto-generated FS9 town objects could not be left as Barrow with trees would not look at all like reality; I have "faded" the density of the town buildings into the distance from the airport.

| Galena PAKP in Alaska |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Galena is a village on the Yukon River, around 30 miles east of the corner where the westward running river turns south. The population is just under 500 and the city is noted for its educational facilities that attract residential students from across the state. Adjacent to the city is the Galena Air Force Station that previously shared the use of the Edward G. Pitna Snr. airport until 2007, when the station was closed and the air force personnel left. The station facilities have been taken over by the community and the airport became the largest state-maintained airport in the interior of Alaska. Substantial resurfacing and finishing work was then carried out, and the new asphalt runway is now 6,000 feet long and aligned 7-25, with VASI at both ends and ILS on 25. There is a secondary gravel runway beside part of the main asphalt runway, and this is treated in radio announcements as if it is not a separate runway and landing or take off are on the adjacent asphalt. The airport is serviced by ERA (now called Ravn) and Wrights Air, with cargo flights by the eternal Everts. Included here is a small modification for Allakaket, which deletes a single remaining stock FS9 taxiway light. The AI included here also provided Allakaket with a Saturday Everts delivery flight, but I neglected to mention that before. A note here about my scenery making. There will not be many more to follow this as I am almost at the end of the photos I either took or found for scenery purposes, plus I expect to move on from FS9 at some point during next year.

| PAYA Yakutat, Alaska, USA |
|
File Description:
Googlyafcad A&F Data for Yakutat, based on Google Earth satellite data.
Unfortunately, Microsoft have only limited facilities at this airport in Flight
Simulator 2004 with no provision for commercial traffic and this file will allow
you and your "AI" traffic to land, taxi, park and take off in a realistic manner.
Yakutat airport sees regular flights by Boeing 737 jets of Alaska Airlines, along
with smaller-sized traffic by local operators such as Arctic Circle Air Service

| Buckland PABL in Alaska |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Buckland is a village on a small river, around 45 miles east of Deering and 15 miles inland from the river mouth. Like Deering, the population of 420 live from fishing and the land. The airfield is close by and has a gravel runway aligned 10-24 and 3,300 feet long with VASI at both ends. Apart from the airfield itself, and it's buildings, this scenery modifies the local (mostly treeless) land class, adds village buildings while reducing the village size to reality, and creates a new airfield background. Bering Air flies into Buckland from Kotzebue and is included in the AI. A note here about my scenery making. This is post number 505 and there will not be many more to follow this as I am almost at the end of the photos I either took or found for scenery purposes. There is a limit to what can be located online and I have already been making use of the little there is; eg Unalakleet. So, if you are near an airport (preferably Canadian or Alaskan) and have a camera..... Let me know.

File Description:
Koyuk is a coastal village around 125 miles east of Nome at the mouth of the Koyuk River, with a population just under 400 living from fishing and the land. The airfield is close by and has a gravel runway aligned 18-36, 3,300 feet long with VASI at both ends. Apart from the airfield itself, and it's buildings, this scenery modifies the local land class, adds village buildings while reducing the village size to reality, and creates a new airfield background. Bering Air and ERA both fly into Deering and are included in the AI. A note here about my scenery making.

| Deering PADE in Alaska |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Deering is a coastal village around 55 miles southwest of Kotzebue, living from fishing and the land and with a population of around 130. The airfield is inland from the coast and has two gravel runways, 11-29 of just under 3,000 feet and 2-20 of 3,700 feet; the US is the only country that names runways with single numerals, hence 2-20 that in Canada would be 02-20. And Canada, which is a metric country and gives speed limits on roads in kilometres per hour, flies in feet and not metres for runway lengths and flight levels. The two runways could have something to do with there being a National Guard Armoury in the village, and perhaps personnel being flown in for exercises in the local countryside. Apart from the airfield itself, and it's buildings, this scenery modifies the local (mostly treeless) land class, reduces the village size to reality, and creates a new airfield background. Bering Air flies into Deering from Kotzebue and is included in the AI. A note here about my scenery making.

| Kaltag KAL in Alaska |

Images related to this file:
File Description:
Kaltag is a small village on the west bank of the Yukon River, around 65 miles east of the coast at Unalakleet and about 40 miles south of where the river turns from north-south to east-west, east being upstream towards the distant Fairbanks. The population is just under 200 and living from fishing and the land. The airfield is close by and has a gravel runway aligned 21-3 and just under 5,000 feet long. Apart from the airfield itself, and it's buildings, this scenery modifies the local land class, adds village buildings while reducing the village size to reality, and creates a new airfield background. Kaltag is located on the edge of three different airlines coverage areas, and is served by Bering Air from the northwest, ERA from the southwest, and also by Wright Air from Fairbanks in the east. These are included in the AI.
