Images related to this file:
File Description:
There are four main northwestern Alaska towns which are serviced by Alaska Airlines, and from which local flights spread out. The northernmost is Barrow. Southwest of Barrow is Kotzebue, then Nome, and the furthest south is Bethel (not yet made). This is a continuation of the series for the flights from Kotzebue, 130 miles to the east to Ambler on the bank of the Kobuk River. The next additions will be a few miles further east, Shungnak and Kobuk, and a small strip just to the north of Kobuk. Ambler is a small village (population now around 260) beside the Kobuk River, the river being the reason for the existance of the village as it served (and still does) as both a source of food and a transport route. The airfield is just north of the village, with two runways, each around 3,500 feet of lit gravel and aligned 36-18 and 09-27, with PAPI on 36. There are scheduled flights by Era (now renamed Ravn) and by Bering Air, both of them originating in Kotzebue and routing east to Ambler, Shungnak, Kobuk, and then back again. The AI includes these flights along with Everts Air and GA. There are revisions to Kotzbue to provide more parking.

| TNCS - Juancho E. Yrausquin Airport - Saba, Netherlands Antilles |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This island is the smallest municipality of the Netherlands. Saba is just under 30 miles south of St. Maarten, the island that was split between France and the Netherlands; to the southeast and 20 miles away is the small island of St. Eustatius, then St Kitts and then Nevis. The island comes out of the water like the top of Everest and keeps going, and there is no large space for a runway and no possibility of creating one with landfill with those steep sea cliffs. So what you have is a small runway (aligned 12/30) of 1,000 feet plus over-runs at each end that have small "closed" markings (see the white crosses) for a usable total of around 1,300 feet.
The airport restricts access as there is only space for four planes to park, plus a helicopter. And of course there is also the short runway to contend with. Landings are carried out under waivers issued by the Netherlands Civil Aviation Authority, and will always be on runway 12 as the southeast trade winds predominate. Twotters land there but only in real life; FS9 AI Twotters don't seem to find it adequate. There is no fuel or any other facility except for a small terminal building and a car park.

| SSJA Joaçaba, Brazil |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Googly scenery for SSJA Joaçaba - a small domestic airport
in the state of Santa Caterina, Brazil, that is poorly provided for in Flight
Simulator 2004. These scenery files add taxiways, aprons, buildings and other
airport features, so that you and your "AI" traffic can land, taxi, park and
take off in a realistic manner.
The small but prosperous city of Joaçaba was originally established in 1917 as
Cruzeiro and later known as Limeira and Cruzeiro do Sol, but in 1943 adopted
the current name following the introduction of legislation prohibiting cities
in Brazil using the same name - not a bad idea really. Joaçaba has a high
quality medical centre serving the state of Santa Caterina and a renowned
university which both bring traffic to the airport which is served by mainly
by LET410 aircraft of local airline NHT Linhas Aéreas.
The scenery does not purport to be ultra-accurate. Based on high-detail satellite
imagery from Google Earth, the layout is proportionally correct but the added
airport features, such as buildings, are built from default Microsoft objects
and add-on libraries so will not look exactly like the real thing.

| Lac des Plages grass strip in Quebec Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Lac des Plages is in Quebec on the north shore of the lake (and village) of the same name, some 55 miles northeast of Ottawa. It is an old grass strip and next to a tourist trailer park ("caravan" to the English). The runway is almost north-south and 2,200 feet long, and I went there to see if it is still in use. It is in good condition but there was nobody to ask (in early April) if it is still used and nobody turned up see if a plane had landed. I doubt if it is used regularly as there are no "wear" marks that show up on a grass strip, and the flare pots (actually old wheel rims with charcoal in them?) beside the runway could have been lit three months ago or three years ago, there was no way to tell. The single hangar is obviously no longer in use as a hangar, and the lack of a fence between the trailers and the grass strip would be a danger to pilot and strolling pedestrian alike. However, the runway still exists and here it is and as in real life the northern end slopes unevenly up.

| Cape Dyer CWFD in Nunavut, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Cape Dyer is on the southeast corner of Baffin Island, around 120 miles east of Pangnirtung at approximately N66 45 W61 30. There is a fine view north up the Davis Strait between Baffin Island and Greenland, and this is the whole reason for the airfield's existance as it was built to support the construction and operation of a DEW line radar station, which has now been updated to a North Warning System site. There are two camps; the upper camp is on the east side of the Cape and is where the radars are located, linked by a gravel road to the lower camp, which is on the west and more sheltered side of the Cape on the clifs above Sunneshine Fjord. The runway is 5,000' of 150' wide gravel, and it is lighted and at 1,320' feet ASL. Cape Dyer is now listed as abandoned in the Canada Flight Supplement. It is, however, still there and presumably is still used for access to the North Warning System equipment, which is automated and generally unmanned. The buildings were modeled for this scenery and include a hanagar large enough to accommodate a C-130. Ultimate Terrain is not required as it does not cover northern Canada.

| Clyde River CYCY & Cape Christian in Nunavut Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Clyde River is a village on the northeast coast of Baffin Island, 250 miles above the Arctic Circle and around 150 miles north of Cape Hooper. It is on the shore of Patricia Bay at the entrance to Cylde Inlet, a fjord which stretches over 60 miles inland. The population is around 880 folks, and it was named by the explorer John Ross in 1818. The airfield is just east of the village and the lighted runway is 3,501' of 100' wide gravel at 87' ASL, aligned 018 True 198 True; "True" as opposed to magnetic in the Northern Domestic Airspace. There are two aprons, one with the new terminal building and one with the old terminal and the garage. Five miles northeast of Clyde River is Cape Christian, where there is a gravel runway around 3,000' long and adjacent to the beach, built to serve what was started as a weather station and later became a LORAN navigation system station. The station is still there, though it was closed some time ago and is now the subject of decontamination work. The runway is usable, though only for light planes as it is a bit rough. First Air and Canadian North are the AI planes visting Clyde River.

| Montana Unleashed! - Part One |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Montana Unleashed! Part 1 is the first in a two part series of a collection of airports in Montana. The majority of airports covered in Part 1 are located in the western half of the state. THIS IS A RE-UPLOAD OF A PREVIOUS UPLOADED SCENERY THAT WAS LOST DURING THE AVSIM HACK! NOTHING HAS CHANGED!
Montana Unleashed! is a collection of 14 highly detailed airports, created using Abacus' EZ-Scenery, scattered about the state of Montana and one in Washington. Do a ZipDive and check out some of the screenshots! The state of Montana, from what I've seen, seems to have been very neglected by scenery makers over the years which is surprising considering the beautiful and varied landscapes the state has to offer. There's some very cool approaches at many of these airports. The size of the airports vary from large all the way down to small county airports meaning you can fly just about any kind and size of aircraft with these sceneries. Fly your Delta 737 from Salt Lake to Bozeman. Fly your shiny new Skywest EMB-120 from Missoula to Billings. Or fly your Piper Cub from Havre City to Choteau and on to Dillon. It's all here!

| KQA Akutan, Alaska |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is Akutan, which comprises the water airport, the town, and the Trident crab and fish processing plant just to the west of the town. Akutan is in the Aleutians in an inlet on the island of the same name, around 35 miles ENE of Dutch Harbor, and is served by a Grumman Goose amphibian that flies from Dutch Harbor. The population is just over a thousand, though this can increase as more seasonal workers are employed at the plant. The church is not as big as it looks; the long part is a gymnasium. The Ai includes the Akutan end of a Grumman Goose flight from Dutch Harbour (the AI files are part of the Dutch Harbor scenery) which will take off from the Dutch Harbor runway and land on water at Akutan. It will then park at the bottom of the ramp up onto the apron, which is actually usable if you want to taxi up it. In reality it is a PenAir flight, here it is Reeve Aleutian for technical reasons. The Sea AI includes fishing boats from the Trident dock and a Coast Guard cutter from the town dock; the latter as explained in the updated version of Dutch Harbor, which you should already have installed.

| Anticosti Island in Quebec Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Anticosti Island is in the Gulf of St Lawrence, around 25 miles off the Quebec mainland coast. It is some 40 miles wide and 130 miles long on an east west axis. There are few urban areas and only one that can be described as a small town, namely Port Menier at the western end of the southern coast, with a population of under 1,000. There is a ferry service to the harbour.
The airport, Port Menier CYPN, is around 3 miles northeast of the town, with an asphalt runway aligned 11-28, 4,875 feet long and 150 feet wide with PAPI at each end. In 2010 (the approximate date of this scenery) a gravel runway was still visible at the eastern end of the field. This was no longer in use by 2010, except perhaps by small planes on skis in the winter.
The island, with its small population, small urban area, and no industry other than logging, has as a result a mainly undisturbed wildlife population. This has made deer hunting and fishing the main tourist activities, with one company (called Safari) having an exclusive licence to exploit large areas of mountains and rivers. Planeloads of hunters and fishermen are flown in on chartered Nolinor Aviation planes, landing at CYPN. There are a further two airfields in the eastern end of the island, and in 2010 Rivere-Aux-Saumons CTH7 had a 5,500 feet gravel runway, linked by road to a lodge area at the mouth of the river. This is the only lodge area that I have been able to locate, but there are others. To the south Riviere Bell CRB5 had at that time a gravel runway that was 3,000 feet long. This has been lengthened since then and both runways were recently (2021) asphalted.
If you find an error email me please, and note that my email address has been changed to rogwens at Gmail dot com. The reason I am posting this now is that I discovered that my original post ended up in MSFS Original Aircraft instead of in FS2004 Scenery. Ooops!

| Tok Junction 6K8 in Alaska, USA |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Tok Junction is a village, or small town, on the Alaska Highway some 180 miles east of Fairbanks and 60 miles west of the Alaska-Canada border. The town is spread over a wide area on the flat terrain and barely registers among the trees, and as such is not shown in FS9 except as a grid of roads as there is no town terrain texture like it used in FS9. The airfield is at the eastern end of the town and adjacent to the Alaska Highway and I have included some surrounding houses, workshops, shops, lodges, etc. The single runway is 3,000 feet of 50 feet wide asphalt aligned 07-25 and lit. There is a small airline based on the airfield called 40-Mile Air. Their hangar is red and the name written large and 100LL fuel is available beside it at all times. Jet A-1 is available by a telephoned pre-arangement. They are, I believe, no longer flying scheduled flights but they do still function as an air taxi and they have a contract to deliver mail to surrounding villages that are not served by all-weather roads. The airfield now has a new icao "PFTO" but in FS9 it remains as the original FAA LID, 6K8. The FS9 roads are not accurately placed, and the grass airfield background is not really appropriate as the reality is more like gravel mixed with earth; it is however difficult to replicate this with the available textures and still prevent bushes or trees appearing. But, in the winter and with snow on the ground it looks as it should. 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.
