| Rockcliffe CYRO update in Ontario, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is Rockcliffe in late 2011, on the day before the old clubhouse was demolished. It is based on the original scenery by Flight Ontario and follows on from my previous updates, but this is a new version rather than an update and REPLACES the previous versions. The difference is in the bespoke detail: runway and taxiway lighting (the taxiway lighting is limited, as in real life, to taxiway C); signage throughout including runways, taxiways, refuelling, and parking; refuelling tanks and pumps; fence visibility strips; updated ground markings for the Rockcliffe Flying Club apron and the runway; revised apron texture in front of the new hangar; smaller items such as trash cans and external electrical distribution box for heating cables. There are also, from previous updates, the new clubhouse, the new maintenance hangar, and from the original scenery the Museum complex.

| Mountain View CPZ3 in Ontario, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is Mountain View, a small RCAF airfield at the eastern end of Lake Ontario on Prince Edward Island, some 40 miles west of Kingston. Mountain View is used for training during the summer months, and part of this training is for C-130 crews, who practice landing on rough or unprepared landing strips. The crews are based at Trenton, which is a large base 10 miles to the northwest on the mainland. There are (or were, I haven't seen it recently) numerous parked and ancient fighter planes such T-33's and Canadair Tutors; these could also have possibly been used for summer training or perhaps were just stored. Last summer there were only two hangars left standing; in 2002 there were five. In real life you would be on the lookout not only for C-130's but also (at certain times during the summer) for parachutists and also gliders. This airfield is one that you will fly over and not land on; I confess that I have cheated with the length of the 06L-24R gravel "practice" runway, so that it became possible for the FS version of a touch-n-go with a C-130 to be completed without using the grass. The aerial photograph shows the new "practice" gravel runway under construction.

| Tuktoyaktuk CYUB in Northwest Territories, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Tuktoyaktuk is on the northern coast of Canada, 70 miles north of Inuvik and to the east of the Mackenzie River delta. It has a population of around 900 and because of its natural harbour is a centre for oil exploration activity on the surrounding land and on the Beaufort Sea, with sizeable but now under-used yards dating back to the peak of activity in the late 1970's. On land work is restricted to the winter half of the year, as only the freeze-up makes it possible to move on land with heavy equipment, and during the winter further supples are driven over an ice road from Inuvik up to Tuk. The ice-free summer months are used for floating equipment from Yuk along the coast on barges and then up the rivers to inland sites in preparation for the winter activity. Before the oil there was a DEW line station here, and there is still an automated station on the same site and included here, as are the yards. The airfield is on the coast close to the town and the yards, at 15' ASL. The gravel runway 09/27 is 5,000' feet long and 150' wide; both thresholds are displaced by 200', but of course there are no markings on the gravel. The large apron is on the north side at the centre of the runway and is large enough to accomodate several large planes. Inuvik revised should be installed first, now Tuk, then last of the three Sachs Harbour which has AI for Aklak Airlines flights (operated by Kenn Borek) for all three airfields. There is a separate AI file included here, featuring freight delivery by Buffalo Airways and small planes.

| Buffalo Narrows CYVT in Saskatchewan, Canada |

Images related to this file:
File Description:
Buffalo Narrows is a small town (around 1,400 folks) 130 miles west and a bit north of La Ronge in Saskatchewan, and I discovered that the Buffalo Narrows airfield, wrongly positioned in FS9, had been flooded out by Ultimate Terrain's lake; this is the rescue package. Actually that would be several lakes as the place is surrounded by water including Churchill Lake, Little Peter Pond Lake, and of course Big Peter Pond Lake.
There are two runways, the longest being 5,006' of 100' wide asphalt aligned 11/29, and the other 2,297 and 75' wide, also asphalt. Both runways are lit, and there is JetA and 100LL fuel available. I have placed taxiway lights, but I haven't made proper signage or placed runway lights, or a ton of other things, but it is now landable and with the buildings and fire chemical retarder tanks etc, and there is AI that includes a CL-415. The roads have also been modified to fit.

File Description:
CYQM - Greater Moncton International Airport / Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada
This airport update was made with the latest version of ADE (Airport Design Editor) and made for FSX as a replacement for the stock (default) airport. I found that most stock airports in FSX lack a decent amount of character and realism and this area in particular was dreadful! The stock airport was rather inaccurate. I've made several additions to the airport which are listed below. All these enchancements are as close to the real airport as I can get with stock library objects. I've used satellite images, terminal photos and maps throughout the whole process so building locations are as accurate as possible. Happy landings in the beautiful Canada!
Features:
*Expanded parking apron
*Main terminal building with it's 2 jetways and additional parking for regional jets/turboprops
*Seperate parking aprons for GA traffic near the old terminal
*Hangar and other airport buildings added
*Airport vehicles and objects throughout the airport
*Main road in front of airport added with static vehicles
*Parking lots with static vehicles
*Airport fire station with fire trucks
*Static de-icing vehicles

| Shea Field CSF7, Casselman Ontario Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Shea Field is a recently-licensed privately-owned grass airfield in Ontario, 25 miles southeast of ottawa, and south of Highway 417. When I visited I was greeeted by the horse, peering around the end of it's stable shed at the corner of apron and runway. I walked over to the house and rang the doorbell and the dog said hello and that exhausted all social contact. The hangar is large but I have no idea what is inside. There was one plane parked on the apron with a skirt of uncut grass so presumably it hasn't flown for a few months. It was a Citabria in what looked like good condition; I don't have a Citabria to park there so I put a Cub. My favourite building is the old barn, leaning to one side as if seeking support for an elbow. To the north there are some farm sheds and grain silos, and to the northwest a tall mast; avoid it. To find the field without a gps follow the 417 and look for the tall mast just west of a major highway wiggle.

| Sturt Point CWSP in Nunavut, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Sturt Point was a DEW line I Station on the south coast of Victoria Island, 50 miles east of Cambridge Bay. It was closed in 1963 but remains in place, though a 5 man I Station has such a small impact on its surroundings that it is hardly visible. The runway is 3,420 feet of gravel aligned 117T/297T, and there are no lights, signage, or windsock, but there are ruts in the gravel. A North Warning System station was built 15 miles inland and closer to Cambridge Bay, operating from 1991 onwards. This has a short (1,280'?) gravel runway aligned 138T/318T (and named CWSX here). No ruts in the gravel, but also still no lights, signage, or windsock.

| Hat Island CWHI in Nunavut, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This was a DEW line I Station on Hat Island; the island is around 4 miles square and just under 50 miles southeast of Jenny Lind Island. The station was closed in 1963 and has now been totally dismantled and removed, a fairly easy task given the size. The runway is still there and is a shade over 3,000 feet of gravel 100' wide. There are no lights, signage, or windsock. A North Warning System station was built in 1991 on the site of the I Station, just north of the runway. Most of these DEW line stations are not particularly impressive or even interesting. However, you can bet that any pilot flying regularly in the north along the coast knows where all these runways are, in case one of them suddenly becomes his favourite in the whole world just after the sudden silence.

File Description:
This was a DEW line I Station on the southeast shore of King William Island; the island is around 70 miles square and Gjoa Haven is also on the southeast corner, 20 miles to the south. The station was closed in 1963 and has now been totally dismantled and removed except for a fallen 300 feet communications tower. The runway is still there (mostly) and is around 3,360 feet of gravel 120' wide, aligned 146T/326T. There are no lights, signage, or windsock, or any building remaining. All of these DEW line stations are not particularly impressive or even interesting. However, you can bet that any pilot flying regularly in the north along the coast knows where all these runways are, in case one of them suddenly becomes his favourite in the whole world just after the sudden silence.

File Description:
This was a DEW line I Station in the lower reaches of the Boothia Peninsula, 80 miles south of Taloyoak and 40 miles east of Shepherd Bay. The station was closed in 1963 and the buldings and other items have been removed apart from the garage and some diesel tanks. A NWS automated station was opened there in 1991. The runway is still there and is just over 3,500 feet of gravel 100' wide, aligned 044T/224T, and at 790 feet ASL. There are no lights, signage, or windsock. This is one of the less interesting DEW line stations to visit and walk around.
