| Rideau Lakes airfield CRL2 near Ottawa in Canada, a REVISED version |
|
File Description:
Rideau Lakes was made and posted a year ago and this version has a revised grass background which looks more realistic and supports snow. The latter is important for Canadian sceneries. This is the second in a series of revised Ottawa area sceneries, and this version replaces the first one which should be deleted, if you already have it.

| Bank Farm Farm Field CF09 near Ottawa in Ontario, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Bank Farm field is in Ontario and around 11 miles south and a bit east of Ottawa airport, just west of Bank Street that wriggles its way south out of Ottawa. There is a grass runway 08/26 (actually 085/265) that is 2,600 feet long, and the grass could not possibly be better. A small (and old) hangar is now only used to house the farm owner's Cessna 172 during the winter. There is a large (and also old) barn and the house is right on the approach to the runway from the east; approach 08 between the barn and the house and straightens it out on very short finals.
The hangar, barn, and house are modeled specifically for this scenery, as was the log pile.

| St Andre-Avellin CAA2 in Quebec Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
St Andre-Avellin is a new airfield in Quebec Canada, 35 miles east of Ottawa and 10 miles north of the Ottawa River, and just northwest of the village of the same name. There is a 03/21 grass runway that is 2,870 feet long and slopes up towards the north. To show this slope I have not "placed" a grass runway (which would immediately flatten the slope) and anway there is not so much traffic that the grass would be notably marked. Because of the lack of an FS-recognised runway I have not made parking or a traffic file as AI would not work; anyway this airfield with constant activity would not reflect reality. There are no facilities at the airfield except a hangar for the owner and space to park.

| Paugan & Mercier Dams on the Gatineau River in Quebec Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This will not work without Ultimate Terrain, as the rivers and lakes just won't be there. The Paugan and Mercier Dams are on the Gatineau River in Quebec, north of Ottawa. Both of them are for power generation, rather than water conservation; the Paugan power generation building sits at the bottom of the sluiceway below the dam and appears far larger than the dam itself; there is a separate overflow sluice system nearby. The Paugan Dam is around 30 miles north up the river from Ottawa and the Mercier a further 70 miles. The Mercier holds back a huge and irregularly shaped volume of water known as the Reservoir Baskatong, with numerous branching arms and islands, and you will recognise where the dam must be long before you see it.

| Killaloe CYXI near the Ottawa River in Ontario Canada |
|
File Description:
Killaloe is an old military airfield built for jet fighters in the 1950's,and now officially abandoned. It is 12 miles north of Madawaska Valley Airpark and just to the west of Round Lake, and there is no trouble spotting it as even from 20,000 feet (see the pic) it is very visible. This is mainly because it has a single 6,600 feet runway 29/11, which is likely to be useful if it all goes quiet and you need to land! So it is worth knowing about, even though the asphalt is not in a very good condition. It also continues to be used by the odd passing pilot who cannot resist adding another destination to his log book, though I have no personal knowledge of that. I understand local residents also use it for occasional drag racing, presumably unofficially.

| Kenmore Village Field CF08 near Ottawa in Ontario, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Kenmore Village Field is in Ontario, at the northwest corner of the village of Kenmore. Kenmore is around 13 miles southeast of Ottawa airport and 3 miles east of Bank Farm Field. The village doesn't appear in FS as it is too small, but I have recreated it based on the roads that show in Ultimate Terrain. There is a grass runway 09/27 (actually 086/266) that is 3,100 feet long, and the grass is good, and with lights. The field is owned by a gentleman in his mid 70's who sold his plane five years ago and less than two years later discovered that he really didn't want to give up flying; he then went out and bought another slightly older and cheaper version of the one he sold. The house is in a direct line with the runway approach from the east; try to miss it. There is a large hangar and workshop behind the house and to the north of the runway center line, and a second older hangar on the same side a bit further along, both modeled specifically for this.

| Hicks Farm Field CF12 near Ottawa in Ontario, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Hicks Farm is in Ontario and around 8 miles west of Rideau Valley Airpark CPL3 (which did not appear in FS9, probably because it was then mainly used by gliders, but is a post of mine). CPL3 is 15 miles south of Ottawa Airport, tucked into a right angle bend of the Rideau River. Ultimate Terrain puts the river into place, and I am not sure of how or if either CPL3 or CF12 work without UT, maybe somebody can let me know. Fly west from CPL3 along the river and Hicks Farm will be on the south side. It has a (mainly) grass runway 34/16 with a section of asphalt and totals some 5,500 feet overall. Alan, the owner of Hicks Farm, is in his mid 80's and was told last year that his insurance company no longer felt comfortable with him flying his Lear off a farm strip. The result of his enforced retirement from flying his Lear is that the grass has been allowed to take over somewhat, though there is still sufficient space to land most single engine light aircraft.

| 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.

| Indian Creek Farm Field CF07 near Ottawa in Ontario, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Indian Creek farm field (Re-upload WITH THE MISSING TEXTURES!) is in Ontario and southeast of Ottawa, less than two miles east of two other real-life farm fields I have already posted (Russell Farm, and Russellette Strip). The creek is just north of the runway in the trees, though it doesn't show in FS with or without Ultimate Terrain.
There is a grass runway 08/26 that is 2,100 feet long and has lights; the grass could be better (I mean there could be more of it) but the drainage is good. There is a large hangar that is right by the house and is heated (wow!); this is for the owner. There are also eight other hangars which are slightly basic and without doors, which means boxes over the wheels so the tires don't get chewed by the wild life and canvas hangar fronts for the winter. All the hangar buildings are modeled specifically for this scenery. The runway has been there for 22 years, and before that (though with a large gap between) there was a military grass strip as a relief field for nearby Pendleton .

| Nursery Corner Farm Field CF13 near Ottawa in Ontario, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Nursery Corner is a tree nursery around 12 miles southwest of Rideau Valley Airpark CPL3 (which did not appear in FS9, probably because it was then mainly used by gliders, but is a post of mine and downloadable) and 6 miles south of Hicks Farm, a recent post. CPL3 is 15 miles south of Ottawa Airport, tucked into a right angle bend of the Rideau River. Ultimate Terrain puts the river into place and I am not sure how CPL3 works without UT as the river is close by. Fly west from CPL3 along the river and Hicks Farm will be on the south side; fly south parallel to the roads, cross a small river, and in an area which has place names like Hutchins Corners and Pattersons Corners will be the farm field with two grass runways at right angles among the nursery rows of trees. The runways are 36/18 1,700 feet and 27/09 2,000 feet. The single T hangar houses what looked like a Citabria.
