| Ivujivik CYIK in Hudson Bay, Quebec, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Ivujivik is a village of 350 or so inhabitants at N62 25 W78 on the northeastern corner of Hudson Bay. The village does not feature in FS9 but is included in this scenery with approximately the right shape (the coast, even with UT, is not exactly right) so just think of it as a hand-made auto-generated village which gives the airfield a reason. The runway is 3,500 feet of gravel 100 feet wide, which should be enough. I also added the roads, deleted the stock airfield background and added a new background, plus of course there is the scenery file and the AFCAD and AI. You may note that the terminal has the elevation written on the sign as 126', while on the winter photo it is written on the older & bigger sign as 130'. I thought this is because satellite radar has fixed the elevations of all airfields more accurately than before, as Rockcliffe too has gone from 192' to 188'; the alternative explanation is that global warming has raised sea level by 4'. Wow! That's a thought. I presume the new sign was made smaller as a cost saving.

| Alert Bay CYAL in British Columbia, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Alert Bay is a small village on the small Cormorant Island, offshore from Port McNeill near the northern end of Vancouver Island. There is an airfield at the eastern end of the island with an asphalt runway 2,900 feet long aligned 09-27, without lights. Two houses have access with hangars at the edge of the field and at the end of their gardens. Nothing special about it but it completes the local scenery around Port McNeill.

| PACD - Cold Bay - Aleutian Islands, Alaska, USA |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Cold Bay is in the eastern third of the Aleutian chain of islands in Alaska, around 175 miles east of Dutch Harbor. The small town has a population of just over 100 and is in existance solely because of the airport with its long runways, one just over 6,000 feet and the other over 10,000 feet and with an ILS. Goods are flown here for local redistribution. The airport was originally built to this size for use in WW2 and there are still quonset huts from this time visible in the area, though the majority of the rough-and-ready housing has now been cleared away. There are scheduled flights by Grant Aviation to neighbouring local airfields and flights to and from Anchorage by Peninsula Air (included in the AI posted with Adak) and Grant Aviation have space attached to their hangar that serves as a terminal. The Coastguard also make use of Cold Bay.

| Driftwood Bay AK23 near Dutch Harbor Alaska |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is Driftwood Bay, an Air Force field that is just 13 miles northwest of Dutch Harbor, and was once part of a DEW line station with a road heading up the hill.
In FS9 the stock runway is concrete and if you have a mesh with the hills correctly positioned then the runway sits in a deep hole on the hillside. In fact the runway is gravel, 3,500 feet long and aligned 32/14 next to the beach, which is where I moved it to. The beach, as configured by Ultimate Terrain (and contrary to my previous doubts, UT does cover the Aleutians) is incorrect, in that a marshy area just behind the beach is shown as sea with large indentations in what should be a fairly straight line of sand. However, this does not squeeze AK23 in any way so I left it; consider it to be a spring high tide. There is very little at AK23 beyond a gravel runway and a windsock and the AI is an Alaska State Troopers Piper Super Cub from Dutch Harbor, presumably monitoring the numerous Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge areas.

| Ferndale 53U in Montana US |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
I have made this because I downloaded and tried the Glacier Park photo land-class scenery by Blue Sky Scenery and then rediscovered that the airfield runways are not correctly positioned or aligned in FS9. So I corrected the Ferndale runway and while I was there also added 33 hangars and some parked planes. Of course, as all I know about the hangars is the colour of the roof this isn't up to total realism. It is, however, better than nothing and as I have a large stock of hangars from other sceneries not much effort was involved.
Ferndale is an "airpark" type of airfield where folks build their houses and hangers around the field, plus it also has a bunch of hangars; it is the "bunch" that I have replicated, as I have no idea at all what the houses look like. The field is 20 miles southeast of Glacier Park International at 3,060 feet ASL and around 55 miles south of the Canadian border. There are no large towns close by; the nearest would be Missoula, which is some 70 miles further south.

| Chisasibi CSU2 in northern Quebec, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Chisasibi is in northern Quebec on the east shore of James Bay, 60 miles from the corner of James Bay and Hudson Bay. Originally called Fort George and founded at the mouth of La Grande Riviere around the Hudson Bay trading post that was established in 1803, the town had to move 5 miles upstream in 1981 when the Quebec hydro project increased the flow rate of the river. The name was changed to Chisasibi at the time of the move (Chisasibi = Great River in Cree) and the population (750 as early as 1940) has now grown to around 2,000. There is a paved road east to Radisson that connects to the north-south James Bay road, which was built at the time of the hydro project work. The original Fort George airport runway is still visible but not usable, just south of the original town site. Chisasibi airport is to the west of the new town, and the gravel runway is 3,792 feet long and aligned 14/32, which is approximately parallel to the river. There is officially no fuel available, but there is JetA on site for Air Creebec in a tank protected by used fuel drums (filled with sand?). The terminal and the garage building are both relatively new; the terminal dates from 2002 and has unusual touches. There are two AI flights by Air Creebec each day plus other private planes.

| Georgian Bay Airfields CYEM & CNR4 in Ontario, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
These are two airfields in Ontario around Georgian Bay, which is off the east side of Lake Huron in the Great Lakes. Manitoulin East Muni CYEM is at the northern end of the Bay in an area of coves and lakes, on what is actually an island that is almost but not quite connected to the mainland in several places. There is no immediately adjacent town and the field serves the county area. The runway is 3,500 feet of asphalt aligned 02-20 with PAPI at both ends. The second airfield is Tobermory CNR4, which is just south of the small town and ferry terminal of the same name on the northern end of the peninsula that forms Georgian Bay. The runway is 3,180 feet long and aligned 12-30; there is no longer a 450 feet displacement to the 30 threshold.

| Chesterfield Inlet CYCS in Nunavut, Canada |
|

File Description:
Chesterfield Inlet is a small village on the west coast of Hudson Bay, with a population of 340 or so. It is the oldest community in Nunavut and was established around a Hudson Bay Company post in 1911, 55 miles north of Rankin Inlet (Sid and Pete's post). The airfield is close to the village and has a gravel runway 3,600 feet long aligned 124T/304T (true, not magnetic). Fuel is available with 2 hours prior notice, and the visiting AI airlines are First Air and Calm Air.

| CYSK - Sanikiluaq - Southern Nunavut, Canada Revised |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Sanikiluaq is on one of the Belcher Islands in Hudson Bay, near the northern end of James Bay, and this is a revised version. It corrects the terminal that I made with limited information and faded memories the first time, adds in signage, runway lights, taxiway lights, terminal night textures, and revised AI. The "spare" parking space is the one next to the 4 gas drums on a pallet; line up with the traffic cone. It presumes you have already installed my September 2010 Sanikiluaq post, and this version is not complete by itself.
