| CYPX - Puvirnituq - Hudson Bay - Quebec, Canada, Modified V1 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This modified version installs new taxiway lights and windsocks, and the PAPI that has been recently installed at the airport, plus it modifies the AI. This is a complete version and does not require you to have installed the original. A new terminal building was opened in 2013, but as I unfortunately have not been there to take recent photos I am unable to model it, so this scenery is as it was in 2011. Puvirnituq is a village of 1,300 or so inhabitants at N60 W77 on the east shore of Hudson Bay in Quebec. It's name means "Putrid" in Inuit, and there are two different stories about how it got the name. The runway is a very generous 6,300 feet of gravel 148 feet wide aligned 01-19, which should be enough for almost anything.

| LOWS 2006, Designator Patch |
|
File Description:
Since the deployment of the freeware "W.A. Mozart Airport in Salzburg/Austria" (LOWS 2006) by Johannes Kimla the magnetic deviation has changed significantly. Thus, in the real world, it was decided to change the designators for the runways accordingly. Since a few weeks the runways have been renamed: the former RW34 is now named "RW33", and corresponding to this the former RW16 is named "RW15" now.
For those flight simulation enthusiasts who want to fly in a simulated world close to reality we are offering a small patch which take account of these changes: the new designators are now visible on the runways, the taxiway signs should lead to the correct runways. In addition a small file is included which controls the proper approaches on RW15. Please note that this patch is only working with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004!!!

| Eastmain River CZEM in northern Quebec, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Eastmain River is on the south bank of the river of the same name, close to the eastern shore of James Bay at it's southern end. Moosonee is around 110 miles to the southwest, and Waskaganish (my post October 2010) just 50 miles to the south. The town has a population of around 770 who are mostly Cree speakers. The airport is just to the south of the town with a gravel runway just over 3,500 feet long and aligned 02/20; there is no PAPI and there is no fuel available, unless there is some in drums. There are flights by Air Creebec and Wasaya; their textures are available for download on Flightsim and the planes are as listed in the AI folder. The AI bgl is for both CYAT and CZEM; don't think I have included the wrong one.

Comb Ridge, Rock Point (49AZ), Utah/Arizona, Photo-Scenery (FS9 & FSX)
This scenery extends my Monument Valley scenery to the east. It covers the area between the San Juan River in the north down to Rock Point, AZ (49AZ). Most of the scenery lies on the Navajo Nation Reservation. It completes the southeastern corner of Utah and paves our way into Colorado.
High resolution versions of this scenery for FS9 and FSX (much sharper, but larger and multiple downloads) are available at www.blueskyscenery.com/CNY_South3West6.html . The screenies are taken from the high-res versions, so expect this version to be slightly more blurry. Thanks to Joop Mak for providing custom AFCADs that correct airport layouts so that they align with the photo-textures! They are available at www.blueskyscenery.com/AFCADs.html . YourDonation@Work: Dedicated to Olivier, Kevin and Ruben.

| RealityPack 1.2: Comprehensive Enhancement Package - Part 2 |
|
File Description:
RealityPack 1.2 is a major enhancement of FS2004. New forests, meadows, cliffs, runways, taxiways, roads with traffic, rails with trains, trees, airport lighting, complete texture set for Europe and more. More than 600 high-definition, highly detailed realistic textures reengineered by hand from aerial photographs for unprecedented detail.
Subtle 3D-effects, real sunlight emulation, careful colour blending, contrast and definition and seasonal variety combined with no frame rate impact will create a new level of realism and immersion. Real macrostructures with recognisable ground detail blend into a realistic landscape. Works well for both low level and high altitude flights. Summer, fall and soft winter seasons included (hard winter forests only for Europe at the moment). For a full list of contents check out the posts in the avsim screenshot forum or the included readme file.

| Georgetown Q61 California Scenery |
|
File Description:
This is a scenery upgrade for Georgetown Airport, California (Q61). This is part Six of a series of small airstrip and minor airfield scenery enhancements which are based on real world data from Google Earth.
Changes to the default include surrounding landclass changed to mixed forest to match better the realworld, new airfield polygon to match shape and earth colours. The hangers I added had a mix of open door and closed door models, but for some odd reason they are all showing as closed, maybe it's just my system or some glitch, let me know if you get open doors!
I also added the usual extras which are of course artistic license!
Note that there are two exclude files, that is because I forgot to save data with one and new excludes needed another file making, sorry for the clutter!

| Cyprus: Airfields plus landmarks and land class for all of Cyprus and AI |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Cyprus, an island in the eastern Mediterranean. Without the benefit of Ultimate Terrain, which does not exist for Cyprus, the land class provided by FS9 stands out as hopelessly inadequate. I have added the extensive farmland and the larger towns and villages, plus the major roads. Four completely new airfields are included here, three in the north and one in the south. Ercan LCEN is in the north and functions as the airport for all of the north. It was recently closed for two years while a new terminal was built and the runway updated and an apron extended etc, and during that time Gecitkale LCGK functioned (barely) as the airport for the north. Gecitkale is now hardly used at all. The third northern airfield is Ilker Karter LCIK and this functions as the HQ base of the Turkish Army Corp in northern Cyprus. The last of the new airfields is Kingsfield LCRE, which is in the Sovereign Base area to the east of Larnaca and is now used for recreational purposes. Ercan is now undergoing further expansion with a new runway and a new terminal building and apron, so this scenery is for the period between 2010 to 2015. My set up of Cyprus already included a payware Larnaca by Aerosoft (now only 12 euros) plus a freeware Paphos, Nicosia, and Akrotiri; that was my starting point. Larnaca has been the major airport for Cyprus since the mid 1970's, with a huge tourist trade that peaks in the summer but which is year long (almost a million Brits visit every year, let alone the other nationalities). I have adapted this (gate sizes etc) to allow parking by a multitude of B737's and others. Nicosia is freeware (posted in 2010) and I have included modifications to reflect its now total disuse. Paphos is at the far western end of the island and freeware, and I have modified this to allow larger and military ai aircraft to function properly; the poster improved his first version to better cater for ai but I was unaware of this and I have stayed with my modifications. Akrotiri is freeware and includes a lot of library object input from MAIW. I have modified the parking somewhat and added further residential areas and munitions storage. The AI is based upon recorded take offs and landings in April, with some further additions in later months. At Ercan the visible gate numbers on the apron are as per real life, but the numbers within FS9 reflect the fact that planes are directed to gates at the centre of the terminal building and not at the far ends. Follow the pink line and obey ATC when it says taxi to gate number 2 even if it is visibly numbered 4.

| Sydney CYQY in Nova Scotia Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Sydney is a maritime port on the east coast of Canada, on the eastern corner of Cape Breton Island. It was founded in 1785 and grew in size emormously from 1900 as a steel mill was founded that prospered along with local coal mines until 1950 or so. After that date and following the final closure of the mill in 2001 the population declined to the current 29,000 or so. The airport is 3 or 4 miles southwest and inland of a coastal urban area which stretches from New Waterford in the north through Lingan, Dominion, Reserve Mines, and Glace Bay, to Port Caledonia, and 5 miles east of the town of Sydney which is beside a sheltered deep water harbour area. This version is not from a fixed date as although I had video of some of the buildings from 2010 I inadvertently constructed part of the apron layout from 2018 information, and then decided to keep it like that either because I liked it or perhaps was too lazy to redo it. The terminal building and the garages to the east of the terminal are original and old, though renovated and maintained to a fairly good standard. The other buildings on the airport are "hangars" in the expected form, with steel frames, insulated cladding, and pitched roofs. The airport publicises it's ability to cater for all the needs of visiting aircraft, with a large FBO hanger just beside the terminal. There are (or were, before the virus came along) scheduled flights by Westjet, Air Canada Jazz, and Air North, which are included in the AI along with GA flights. The runways are 07-25 at 7,000 feet and with PAPI on 25 and ILS on 07, and 01-19 at 6,000 feet with PAPI on 01 and ILS on 19. You will see once the scenery is installed that there are two folders in Sydney CYQY called "Scenery summer" and "scenery winter". Editing the folder name down from "scenery summer" to just "scenery" results in FS9 loading the summer ground textures and parked planes etc. In February you would edit down the "scenery winter" folder to just "scenery" and the unused and unswept taxiways, runway, and aprons will be invisible under the snow, the open-topped cars will not be parked in the open, and privately-owned planes will be in the hangars. If FS9 decides that there is snow on the ground then you need the winter textures, if not then the summer textures. The winter textures are not the full-snowdrift-middle-of-Winter-gale type and are more like early or late winter. One thing you must NOT DO is to edit both folders down at the same time.

| Medicine Hat CYXH in Alberta Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Medicine Hat is a town in south Alberta, beside the South Saskatchewan River, and around 180 miles southeast of Calgary. Originally a railroad town, and in fact still served by the railway and now also by the Trans-Canada Highway, it is currently mainly known for the large natural gas fields in the area. As Rudyard Kipling said, Medicine Hat has "all hell for a basement". The name of the city is a translation of the Blackfoot tribal name for the eagle tail feather headdress worn by tribal medicine men, and it was curiosity about the name that first got my attention.
The date of this scenery is not 2010, as is usual for my scenery; it is more like 2015. The terminal building has been extended and improved, the apron around the two large southern hangars and the large rental hangars behind them is still visibly new, and the tie-down parking places on the grass accessed off one side of the old taxiway are in place and in use. The airport is now (2015) not in the busy usage that it experienced in the second half of the 1900's and old taxiways and a runway have been left to decay and large old hangars have been demolished. Hence the visible remains. The current runways were rebuilt (on top of the existing as foundations) and are 03-21 with 4,990 feet of lit asphalt 150 feet wide with PAPI at both ends, and 09-27 with 2,885 feet of lit asphalt 100 feet wide.
The two newish hangars to the south are a helicopter operating and maintenance company with a flight training school based in the adjoining offices (light grey buildings) and an FBO in hangar and offices (dark grey). Further buildings have been erected since then, and some existing ones have been reclad (eg. light grey now, in 2021, has a light blue roof).
I have cheated in one respect. In reality, the edges of the airport have been gradually utilised for various purposes, such as workshops, storage sheds, factories, etc, with access from the surrounding urban roads. As I have almost no information regarding their appearance I decided to leave the airport area as it was originally built, rather than incorporating buildings that I know are false. I admit that this was also the laziest solution.
The scenery includes a grass strip 3 miles to the south of Medicine Hat, namely Schlenker CFZ3. It is the only airfield I have come across where the fences are not around the edge of the airfield, they are instead around the runways and apron. I presume this is so animals can be left to feed off the grass in summer.
The AI includes flights by Air Canada Jazz.
