| Watson Lake CYQH and CEJ9 in the Yukon Territories, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Watson Lake is at 2,200 feet asl on the east side of the Rockies, in the Yukon Territories. The town is less than five miles north of the border with BC and is built around Wye Lake, just a few miles southeast of the much larger Watson Lake. Whitehorse is some 200 miles to the west, and Fort Nelson 220 miles to the east. The airport was built during WW2 and there remains one surviving original hangar, along with later additions. Unusually, the town of Watson Lake came into being because of the airport's existence, though with the closure of one mine that the airport used to serve and the serial closure of another (closed four times?) both the airport and the town (population 500) are in a downward spiral. The airport is 5 miles to the west of the town. There were two runways, but one is now closed and the remaining one is 08-26, 5,500 feet and 150 feet wide. There are two aprons, the northern one being half-used by CL 415 fire-fighting planes (included in the AI, along with Central Mountain Air). All the buildings for CYQH are modeled specifically, but the CJE9 shed is a guess.

| PAAT (ATU) - Attu - Alaska, USA |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Attu is AT the western end of the Aleutian chain of islands in Alaska, around 40 miles west of Shemya. There was small village on Attu before the Japanese invasion in mid 1942, but the island is now uninhabited. The Coast Guard Loran navigation station remains in place, though it is no longer in operation and visitors to the island are now either tourists or wildlife experts conducting surveys of numbers of nesting birds, etc. The runway still usable is aligned 02-20 and 5,800 feet long; right hand circuits on 02 to stay away from rising ground to the west. The "terminal" building has lost its sign regarding the Horny Bird, removed in 2010 by one of the last of the station operators, but the building is still there, as are some sheds and shacks that lately were used for the uncomfortable accommodation of bird counters. FS9 has used an incorrect icao identification for Attu but correcting it now would make life complicated so ATU it is and shall remain. I have removed the default FS9 roads that came complete with streetlights and telephone poles and replaced and amended the layout with gravel roads to better resemble real life, though the island shape is at best approximate, as is usual in FS9.

| Coal Harbour CAQ3 float base in British Columbia, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is number eight in a series of new and renovated float bases in BC. Coal Harbour is in a sheltered cove off Holberg Inlet on the northwest coast of Vancouver Island, close to the village and 10 miles southwest of the Port Hardy float base. There is 100LL fuel and oil available. Due to the deep fjords that run into Vancouver Island from the west coast Coal Harbour is actually closer to the east coast than it is to the west coast. The tortuous route in through Quatsino Sound and Rupert Sound shelters the waters of Holberg Inlet from the stormy seas of the west coast, and fishing boats take advantage of this. The floatplane dock is to the south of the large (and old) hangar, adjacent to the southern end of the fixed dock where the ramp bridge descends to the floating docks. The video makes it clearer. The AI is a further adaptation of the CF36 AI and involves Beavers and Otters as listed in the AI folder. Due to the surrounding hills there may be some interference with AI aircraft, depending on the wind direction, though I have watched succesful Beaver and Otter landings. Amid the hills there is a very large hole in the ground to the east. The village name suggests it may have been for coal but though in fact there was a coal mine, that was a much smaller and unsuccesful venture; this particular scene of enthusiastic digging was for copper, until 1996. The main claim to fame of Coal Harbour was that it was the last whaling station in North America, using the buildings that were part of the RCAF float plane patrol base during WW2. One downloader reported a texture problem with Port McNeill, to which we found a solution. As he was the only person to email me I am going to presume that nobody else had the problem.

| Allegheny County Airport |
|
File Description:
FS2004 Scenery-Allegheny County Airport (KAGC), West Mifflin, PA, is the fifth busiest airport in Pennsylvania. The number of operations-139,000 takeoffs and landings per year-outpaces several airports that handle commercial or scheduled flights in Pennsylvania. The airport serves as the primary FAA designated reliever airport for Pittsburgh International Airport. In this role the airport supports a high volume of business and corporate-related activity. Created with FSDS2, the scenery requires AFCAD2, Traffic Tools, Rwy12 textures. Lago's FSE was also used. Nova, NovaGold and NovaSim textures are included with download. By John B. Loney, Jr.

| Arnold Ranch (8Q9) Fresno, California. Scenery |
|
File Description:
This is a scenery upgrade for Arnold Ranch (8Q9) (37CN Real World code) Fresno, California. Number ten in the series. As the strip has just a small concrete pad and a hanger at one end, there is not much in the way of scenery. The default landclass is all to pot and has most of the area as some kind of scrubland instead of the agricutural land google shows it to be. A small town to the west is misplaced, plus some workings to the south. This update addresses the landclass faults to some extent as well as the airstrip.

| CWCY - Cape Young - Nunavut, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Cape Young was a DEW line station on the nothern mainland coast 50 miles northwest of Kugluktuk, and 50 miles west of Lady Franklin Point. It closed in August 1993. Most of the buildings are still there, in various shades of decay. The runway is also still there and close to 5,000 feet of gravel in length, aligned and signed 110T/290T, though on the atc it will be called 07/25 as FS9 knows nothing about the Canadian Northern Domestic Airspace. There is no runway lighting, and don't be surprised if there are bushes growing amid the gravel.

| CYGK (2008) - Kingston (Norman Rogers) Airport, Ontario, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Kingston V2 (2008) - GMAX modeled scenery with custom ground textures. The airport was modeled in its 2008 state.
Kingston Airport or Kingston/Norman Rogers Airport (IATA: YGK, ICAO: CYGK) is located 4.3 nautical miles (7.96 km) west of the downtown of Kingston, Ontario, Canada. CYGK is now as the only airport (except CFB Trenton - restricted) between Toronto, Montreal, and Ottawa that has an ILS approach making it a preferred alternate airport to most aviators.
(This is a re-upload of the scenery to replace the original that was lost in the AVSIM hack. No changes have been made)

| The Oaks Airfield |
|
File Description:
The Oaks Airfield is south west of Sydney and is the home of Ultralight flying
for Sydney enthusiasts and is a hive of activity most weekends. A number of
ultralight flying clubs use the airfield as well as some GA aircraft. I got a
"fix" on the Lat(S34* 05.13')/Lon(E150* 33.47') and altitude of 900ft using one
of the Sydney Ultralight Flying Club member's GPS.
I have also included a "fictional" AFCAD2 file which will make the airfield show up in fs9
and so you will have the ability to create flightplans to and from the airfield.

| Hartley Bay replacement landclass - BC Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a replacement landclass bgl for the Hartley Bay float base area, which was posted as part of BC Canada West Coast Fields and Floats in July 2008, and downloaded by over a thousand people since then. Which means that for over 6 years hundreds of people knew that the object textures for Hartley Bay were not showing up, but did not tell me. Find where you installed the original download, find the folder with the same name as in this new download, and replace the existing with the new. All object textures will now show, and so will the landclass.
