| 4AK6 - Wolf Lake - Anchorage, Alaska - USA |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Wolf Lake 4AK6 is in Alaska, some 10 miles northeast of Wasilla, on the north side of Knik Arm. It is an airpark, with houses and hangars adjacent to a runway that is 3,800 feet of asphalt aligned 06-24. The runway is lit but the taxiways are not. There is a second runway that is around 2,500 feet long and aligned 36-18, which is grass and unlit. The C-130 is permanently parked, and seeing it land would have been interesting.

| Lake Hood Floatplane Base, Anchorage, Alaska |
|
File Description:
This is a representation of part of the Lake Hood floatplane base. It contains numerous buildings and docks, several static Beavers scattered about, and touch and go traffic with a Lake Renegade. There is a string of channel bouys so that you can find your way around after landing. It is not a pretty scenery- you will not find any comfy cabins and fishing camps- it is strictly a functional area, but it blends in nicely with the default Anchorage airport.

Images related to this file:
File Description:
Anderson Lake 0AK1 is in Alaska, less than 2 miles southwest of Wolf Lake, on the north side of Knik Arm. It is , like Wolf Lake, an airpark, with houses and hangars adjacent to a single runway that is 2,200 feet of asphalt aligned 08-26. The runway is lit but the taxiways are not. There are hangars and aprons at the western end that are not "attached" to houses, with an adjacent strip mall. There is also a smaller apron at the eastern end. In the first screenshot Anderson Lake is in the foreground (at the eastern end of the lake of the same name) with Wolf Lake visible behind it.

| Allakaket 6A8 in Alaska missing textures |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
These are the missing textures as reported by John. Just add them to the texture folder. Criticism and praise are equally welcome, and particularly if you point out a missing texture or something similar! I just wish that the down-loader who points out an error will one day be down-loader number 1, instead of number 122 as in this case.

| Alaska South Slope 8; Shishmaref PASH |
|
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 the first in a series for flights from Nome, and it is Shishmaref, 125 miles north of Nome on the far side of the Seward Peninsula.
Shishmaref is a village on one of a string of islands off the northern shore of the Seward Peninsula, with a population of around 560. Like other similarly-sited villages (Kivalina, for instance) it is feeling the effects of coastal erosion and there are plans for a relocation, eventually. The airfield is just beside the village, with a runway of just under 5,000 feet of lit asphalt aligned 05-23, with PAPI on both ends. There are scheduled flights by Era (now renamed Ravn) and by Bering Air, both of them originating in Nome. The AI includes these flights along with Everts Air and GA.

| 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.

| PAAQ - Palmer Muni - Anchorage, Alaska - USA |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Palmer PAAQ is in Alaska, some 40 miles northeast of Anchorage on the north side of Knik Arm and beside the west bank of the Matanuska River. It is for both GA and commercial aircraft. There are two apron areas, north and south, separated by the east-west runway. The north apron is for the Forestry Service planes and for resident GA tie-down places and hangars, along with maintenance facilities; the southern end of the north apron is for itinerant aircraft. The south apron is almost entirely for commercial companies and again maintenance. The main runway is just under 6,000 feet long, aligned L16-R34 and asphalted and lit, as is the parallel taxiway A. There is also a shorter and parallel runway that is grass and which receives no winter maintenance. The second main runway is 3,600 feet long and aligned 09-27, asphalt and lit and with a parallel taxiway B, also lit. The airport is undergoing a process of upgrading, which explains the varied colours (and age) of resurfaced taxiways. There are adjustment bgl's for two other neighbourhood airstrips, Toad Lake 24AK and Wolf Track 9AK8, which I just discovered buried in nearby holes in the ground; I also revised their runway surfaces.

| PASN St Paul Island in Alaska |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is St Paul Island airport, plus the town and the harbour which has featured alongside Dutch Harbor in the tv series Deadliest Catch.
St Paul is in the Pribilof group of five islands around 250 miles north of Dutch Harbour. The town has a population of less than 600, so a lot smaller than Dutch Harbour and with only one processing plant, Trident.
The Ai includes a PenAir flight, a Coast Guard C-130, and Coast Guard helicopters; sea AI includes a fishing boat and a Coast Guard cutter. The Coast Guard C-130 and helicopter flights are to Dutch Harbor, so both sceneries are required to make it work as it should. The airport has 6,500 feet of 150 feet wide asphalt with 1,000 feet of over-run at each end, aligned 36/18, lit, and with two aprons at the southern end. There is no hangerage except for Coast Guard helicopters. Runway 36 has at its northern end a hill.
In real life the runway slopes up to the north by over 60 feet, but in FS9 it doesn't; hence the change in airport elevation to 80 feet ASL to get the northern end at least partly out of a box canyon. There is fuel available and it is dispensed from a truck, there are no pumps.

| Nenana Municipal Airport PANN in Alaska |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Nenana is a village on the river of the same name around 40 miles west of Fairbanks, which is the second largest urban area in Alaska after Anchorage. Nenana, as a result of this proximity, is served by road and railway and unlike other Alaskan villages is not reliant on air cargo for necessities. The current population is just under 400, which is way down from its peak of 5,000 in the 1920's when gold was being mined and the railroad being built. Nenana's main claim to fame is as the starting point for the 1925 mushing delivery to Nome of the serum to combat an outbreak of diphtheria. Any Nenana Municipal Airport history is difficult to find, even the date of construction. It has two runways 3L-21R and 3R-21L, the first being asphalt and just under 5,000 feet with PAPI at both ends, the second grass and 1,800 feet. Both are lit. It also has a further water runway similarly aligned and 3,000 feet long. Maintenance is available and there is also fuel at the end of the northern apron, close to the crashed and stripped DC4 that sits among other unwanted items that are too large to make it worth the cost of moving them off the site. There are no regular scheduled flights to the airport, with air taxi or owner operated being in the majority. The scenery, in addition to the terrain, town, bridges, and airport items also modifies the terrain in an area further south where FS9 depicted as a city an Air Force base that is mainly concerned with radar and communications and in fact has very few buildings. The AI includes some Beavers on floats that were used in previous BC scenery with the kind permission of FSAddon. As I have already posted them I have not included them again here. The float plane AI uses the same radio frequency as the land based planes, but they fly to PANX and not to PANN as FS9 has problems with getting floats and wheels separated. Or maybe I just haven't worked out how to cope with FS9. 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.

| Talkeetna Village AK44 in Alaska, REVISED |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
The town of Talkeetna is around 75 miles north of Anchorage in Alaska, on the east shore of the Susitna River where the Susitna, Talkeetna, and Chulitna rivers join. The town is where Don Sheldon started Talkeetna Air Services. His story is told in "Wager With The Wind" by James Greinar and is well worth reading for the descriptions of mountain flying. There are two airfields at Talkeetna, PATK with its long asphalt runway and Talkeetna Village AK44 in the town. This is AK44; measuring the space left for the runway between the river bank in the south and the curve in the road that marks the north end of the field there is just enough space for the 900 feet of runway that is described in the book. The result is a step back in time to 1973, when the second hangar was built. Neither hangar has survived to today.
