| 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.

| Inukjuak CYPH - Northern Quebec, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Inukjuak is a fairly large village on the east coast of Hudson Bay, in Quebec, around 115 miles south of Puvirnituq. The usual Hudson Bay Company post was established there in 1920, and with the opening of a school in 1951 the population grew as the nomadic way of life faded away; the population is now around 1350. Some of the population was forcibly relocated to Resolute and Grise Fiord in 1953 as "human flagpoles", a shameful act by the Canadian government that is hard to believe could ever happen. The airfield is a mile inland from the village and the 3,520 feet of gravel runway is aligned 07/25, and these are magnetic bearings as Inukjuak is not in the Northern Domestic Airspace zone. Both JETA-1 and 100LL fuel is available, though there may be only a limited quantity of 100LL, and probably in drums. The visiting AI airline is Air Inuit.

| Kuujjuarapik CYGW in northern Quebec, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Kuujjuarapik is in northern Quebec at the southern end of Hudson Bay, 90 miles east of James Bay and on the north shore of the Great Whale River; Kuujjuarapik means Small Great River in Inuktitut. Once again the Hudson Bay trading post that opened (in 1820) was the catalyst for the establishment of first a seasonal encampment and then the beginnings of a town in the late 1930's.
The two adjacent villages that now form the town have a total population (mainly Cree and Inuit) of around 1,500. When the Quebec hydo-electric project was under construction in the early 1980's a large portion of the Inuit population voted to move to a new settlement called Umiujaq (my post) 100 miles to the north.
The airport is to the west of the town, between the town and the sea. The gravel and sand runway (which I have made as gravel as there is no convincing way to mix the two) is 5,500 feet long, 150 feet wide, and aligned 17/35, which is approximately parallel to the coast. There is fuel available, both 100LL and JetA, delivered by truck. The AI included here is for Air Inuit and Wasaya, with Air Inuit making three flights per day plus a fourth flight by the Air Inuit Twotter C-GNDO that is based at the airport, and private flights by various aircraft. Yes, there really is a golf course to the south of the airport, and the last thing to note is that Kuujjuarapik has a mandatory radio frequency and that taking into consideration the scheduled flights I have included the tower radio frequency that makes this a controlled airport in FS9.

| Kangiqsualujjuaq CYLU in northern Quebec, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Kangiqsualujjuaq is in northern Quebec on the east side of Ungava Bay, which is to the east of Hudson Bay and around 150 miles wide and 120 miles deep. Kuujjuaq, the administrative capital of northern Quebec, is 100 miles to the southwest. The town is on the bank of the George River, and has also been known as Fort George River, George River, etc. There was a Hudson Bay trading post at the town's location as early as 1838, though it was closed and reopened more than once and the town did not grow because of the trading post; the Inuit lived on the coast during the summer but moved 30 miles inland in winter for trapping. A cooperative was formed in 1959 to market fish, and this was the creative force that brought about establishment of the town; a school was built in 1963.
The airport is to the north of the town in a valley between the surrounding hills at 215 feet ASL. The gravel runway is just over 3,500 feet long and aligned 16/34; there is no PAPI, but there is fuel available, both 100LL and JetA. There are flights by Air Inuit and a warning of caribou on the runway during October and November.

| Waskaganish CYKQ in northern Quebec, Canada - revised |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Waskaganish is at the southern end of James Bay, in Quebec, and this is a revised version. It deletes a hold short that should not have been showing on the gravel, and adds in signage, runway lights, taxiway lights, terminal night textures, and revised AI. I have no idea why I didn't include the night textures before. It presumes you have already installed my October 2010 Waskaganish.

| Kangirsuk CYAS in Quebec Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Kangirsuk is an Inuit village in northern Quebec, on the coast of Ungava Bay. The airport is the only means of access on this coast for the population of around 550, apart from a period in late summer. It is between Quaqtaq and Aupaluk, and around 140 miles north of Kuujjuaq, a major centre in this area for supplies, medical care, education, and anything to do with local government. This version of the airport and village is from around 2010, with the original terminal building that has now been replaced. The runway is just under 3,500 feet of lit gravel aligned 04-22 and the AI includes the daily Air Inuit flight that connects Kangirsuk with Kuujjuaq and other local airfields en route. This is almost certainly the last of the northern Quebec coastal airfields that I will be able to model with the correct buildings; only two missing so not too bad.

File Description:
Kangiqsujuaq is on the north coast of Quebec, 85 miles west of Quaqtaq and 125 miles east of Salluit, while across the Hudson Strait and 100 miles away on Baffin Island is Kimmirut. The town grew around two trading posts, the first opened by Revillon Freres in 1910, and the second by the Hudson Bay Company in 1914. A school was opened in 1960, and a clinic in 1961. The town was known as Wakeham Bay until 1961, and now has a population of around 700. The airport is to the south of the town and up on the hill at 511 feet ASL (this has been remeasured since 2004 and is now known to be 501). The gravel runway is just over 3,500 feet long and aligned 15/33; there is no PAPI, but there is fuel available, both 100LL and JetA. There are flights by Air Inuit.

File Description:
Thank you for downloading this scenery. This is an enhancement to Victorville, CA SoCal Logistics airport. Thsi field is used for jsut about everything but commercial air travel. There are dozens of stored aircraft, hangars, and a military installation located there. This scenery duplicates the feel of the airport, but the hangars are not exact as in real life. Static stored aircraft are included in the package. The AFCAD is included, and the rest of the scenery was built using Abacus' EZ-Scenery program.

| Quaqtaq CYHA in Hudson Strait, Quebec, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Quaqtaq is a small village of 310 or so inhabitants at N 61 W 69 37 on the Hudson Strait at the northwest corner of Ungava Bay. It's name has some connection with "tapeworm" in Inuit; there is a story but I won't recount it here. The village does not feature in FS9 but is included in this scenery with approximately the right shape. No village buildings were specifically modeled; they are hand-made non-specific village houses typical of the north. The airfield runway is 3,520 feet of gravel 100 feet wide and is at 103 feet above the shoreline. I added the roads, a new airfield background, plus of course there is the scenery file and the AFCAD and AI, which is an Air Inuit Dash 8-300. This is the last of a series in northern Quebec that all have similar terminal buildings; I know of others which have the same type of building but I have no photos to discover the differences.
