| Dixie A05 Forest Service airfield in Idaho USA |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This airfield is in the mountains of Idaho, the first in a series. There are not many mountain airfields that can be succesfully modelled in FS9 because the FS9 terrain does not always match reality; no creek for instance, or the valley too small. There are others where the grass strip is all there is, so there is nothing to model apart from resizing the cleared area. Some are well known, well maintained, have clean shower facilities, and are well used for a weekend by small planes with two people and a tent on board, for instance Johnson Creek. Others are less well known but still in good condition, such as Dixie or Big Creek. And there are also some with cabin rental facilities, such as Sulphur Creek Ranch. Other names come to mind, such as Flying B and Pistol Creek, but unfortunately for one reason or another these could not be made. The other difficulty involving hills is succesful AI landings and take offs. At Johnson Creek, for instance, the wind should be from the south to make AI landings more likely to succeed. Dixie is south of the village of the same name, and not to be confused with the dirt strip that is just beside the village. The runway is at 5,148 feet ASL, just over 4,000 feet long and aligned 18-36, and the parking area is at the northern end, opposite the Forest Service buildings. There is a chart of the area included, and to the south of Dixie is the next in the series, Big Creek U60.

| Big Creek U60 public use airfield in Idaho USA |
|
File Description:
This airfield is in the mountains of Idaho, 30 miles south of Dixie A05, which was the first in the series to be posted. Big Creek is now regularly used for picnic fly-ins and overnight camping, or for just a day of fishing in the creek; the creek does not appear in FS9 as it is not exactly huge, and within the Ultimate Terrain USA settings I have in fact turned streams off as in some cases they cross the grass or (in conjunction with the roads) left insufficient runway space. The U60 runway is at 5,743 feet ASl, 3,550 feet long, aligned 01-19, and in good condition. At the southern end there is the new replica of the old original Big Creek Lodge which was built in 1935. This burned down in 2008, and is now being rebuilt by a group of pilots, pilots having formed a large part of the early clientel courtesy of the grass strip. It is shown here as still under construction. There are also Forest Service buildings on the west side of the runway. All of this is located in the Frank Church Wilderness area and the Payette National Forest. The AI is increased at the weekends, reflecting reality, and also revised to use Boise as one of the starting places. Dixie is also reissued here with a revised positioning to fit with the roads. I had concluded that the roads were wrong, while in fact the position of the airstrip was at fault.

| Fort Graham CBW3 in British Columbia Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Fort Graham is what looks like a very small village on the eastern shore of Williston Lake in northern British Columbia, around 100 miles north of Mackenzie (a previous post). The lake, while not large by Canadian standards, is well over 100 miles long but squeezed in width to a maximum of 5 miles amid the surrounding Rockies. The airfield has a gravel runway of 5,000 feet aligned 13-31 and at 2,230 feet ASL. There is no lighting. The operator of the airfield (and presumably the "village" too) is Finlay River Outfitters, a company that is based in Mackenzie and "outfits" hunting trips in the local area. I have posted this as Fort Graham CBW3, but I suggest that you just add it to your previously created "BC airfields" and avoid the inevitable doubling up of common textures etc. Up to you. If you find a defect, email me.

| Liverpool John Lennon (Speke) Airport (EGGP) Ver 4.0 |
|
File Description:
This all new version has been specifically created with the Default FS2004 scenery in mind. However, it is also aligned to the Visual Flight / getmapping VFR Scenery published by Just Flight. Files are also included to make the scenery FS2002 compatible.
Version 4.0 contains all new macros and textures including for the first time full night textures! Note however, the download no longer contains the additional landmark objects included with previous versions. These are still available however from the derbosoft website and from AVSIM.
This scenery forms part of the "UK2002 Scenery Project" co-ordinated by John Woodside - http://fsaviation.net/.
Thanks go to John Woodside and to Peter Leadbeater for the information they have supplied to me regarding the airport.
Special thanks also go to Dave Graham and the rest of the guys at North West Air News (www.nwan.co.uk) without whose photo's and information this new version just wouldn't exist!

| Smiths Falls CYSH near Ottawa in Ontario Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Smiths Falls airfield is four miles east of the town of Smiths Falls and some 30 miles southwest of Ottawa. In bad visiblity it can be found by following the multiple power lines that run east-west half a mile or a mile north of the airfield. There are 45 hangars on the airfield and I have run out of time for modelling the last ten; I will get to them, but later. All of the hangars in the front line visible from the runway have been newly modeled specifically for this, along with the radio shed, gas pump shed, odds-and-ends shed, flying club office, and the new clubhouse, making 40 buildings in all. The old clubhouse burnt down in the summer of 2006, and the concrete slab is still there beside the car park. The new building cannot be anything other than an improvement.

| Kasba Lake CJL8 Northwest Territories Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a sixth airfield with links to Lake Athabasca, which is in Alberta and Saskatchewan. Kasba Lake is some 135 miles northeast of Stony Rapids and is in the Northwest Territories. The airfield is owned and run by and for Kasba Lake Lodge and it is one of several fishing vacation spots that are serviced by flights from Stony Rapids. It is these flights to the north that explain the number of regular scheduled flights into Stony Rapids from the south. The Kasba Lake Lodge has docks for boats and also for clients that want to arrive in their own floatplanes. The ai is for both Kasba Lake and Obre Lake and replaces the porpoising plane that I had used for Obre Lake. Norilor flies the weekend package-deal-long-distance delivery flights for Kasba Lake direct from Winnipeg, and now also for Obre Lake.

| KLBB - Preston Smith Intl. - Lubbock, Texas Version 2.0 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Thank you for downloading this scenery. Lubbock is another one of those little known, neglected airports that populate the
FS world. Avery simple airport, LBB somewhat feels like a little DFW. There is a very DFW-ish main terminal with fewer than
10 gates and plenty of space to grow. The only mainline service is courtesy Southwest, but several RJ's freqent Lubbock
several times per day along with the big freighters. This airport was built from the ground up with excellent detail,
and because of the sparse traffic, frame rates are excellent as well.
Update:
Recently, Lubbock has moved their east-west runway 8/26 roughly 1000 feet to the East so as to eliminate runway incursions
by separation from the north-south runway 17R-35L. Version 2.0 reflects this modificaton. Several taxiways have been removed
or modified, and airport fencing has been altered to reflect the change.

| Tillsonburg CNQ4 in Ontario Canada REPLACEMENT |
|
File Description:
This is a replacement (though complete in itself) for my original Tillsonburg post with the corrected office building included. Tillsonburg is a small town in southwest Ontario, mid way between Toronto, Buffalo, and Detroit. The airfield is some four miles north of the town. It was originally built by the RCAF as an emergency grass field to support flying training in WW2. It now has two grass runways, each 2,400 feet long, and another 4,000 feet long that is asphalt. There is a company that carries out painting and ulholstery work, a flight school, and of course the Canadian Harvard Aircraft Association, which is a volunteer organisation that does what the title suggests and takes care of Harvards, I think six of them plus a Tiger Moth, and something else. And when I was there two years ago and in the winter there was a licensed AME just starting up.

| Pontiac Airpark CPC7 in Quebec Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Pontiac Airpark is in Quebec on the north bank of the Ottawa River, some 20 miles northwest of Ottawa in Canada. It is a new airfield and in fact is still under construction, though the east-west runway has been in use since late last year. This east-west runway is 3,400 feet long and gravel, though it will later be lighted, and then asphalted. The second runway will be just under 2,000 feet and unlighted gravel, and at its southern end there are docks for float planes. The float base is already in use; CPC7 is the ICAO code for the float base. There are lots for sale, and the idea is to build your house right on the airfield so there is no driving necessary between house and plane, thus leaving more time for what is important. There will be updates as things progress.

| Lady Franklin Point CWLF in Nunavut, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Lady Franklin Point was a DEW line station on the southwest corner of Victoria Island, and then a North Warning System station until January 2000 when there was a fire. As a result there are now no NWS buildings, and no central long DEW line station building, only the outlying and already unused buildings from the DEW line site. However, the runway is still there and over 5,000 feet of gravel in length, aligned and signed 90T/270T, though on the atc it will be called 55/235 as FS9 knows nothing about the Canadian Northern Domestic Airspace. There is no runway lighting. Kugluktuk is around 80 miles to the southwest, on the mainland.
I should have mentioned a long time ago that to see the apron lights working (on my fields that HAVE apron lights) requires you to have the "lights_ss_v2" by Sidney Schwartz installed.
