| Byron Bay CWBB plus Edinburgh Island CWEI in Nunavut, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Byron Bay was a DEW line station on the south coast of Victoria Island, 105 miles east of Lady Franklin Point. It closed in 1993. The buildings are still there, slowly accumulating the patina so admired by collectors on Antiques Roadshow. The runway is just over 4,500 feet and aligned 58T-238T. At the mid point between Lady Franklin Point and Byron Bay there is a North Warning Site on the highpoint of Edinburgh Island, just south of the closed Ross Point station on the "mainland" Victoria Island. The runway is just over 1,400 feet and is also up on the top of the island. There is a steep road down 600 feet to the coast for the annual fuel resupply and maintenance.

| 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.

| Vancouver Island and Inner Passage float bases in BC, Canada |
|
File Description:
This is a series of float bases to the east of the northern part of Vancouver Island. They are all zipped together because: first, they are all in the same geographical area and if you like one you may like them all; second it means I only write one set of notes; and third I only upload once. I was looking to fill in the gap between what Holger Sandmann and his cohorts have done with Alaska, and Vancouver and Vancouver Island to the south, and there are these 16 float bases in a stretch of 180 miles between the northern part of Vancouver Island and the mainland coast. And if you leave out the relatively isolated Rivers Inlet to the north then they are all within a 140 mile stretch. Some are on the east coast of Vancouver Island, but most are on islands between the mainland and the island.

| Brevoort CWOB and BAF-3 radar plus Cartwright LAB-6 radar Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Brevoort airstrip and the BAF-3 radar it serves is on Brevoort Island, off one of the southeastern tips of Baffin Island and 140 miles east of Iqaluit. This scenery includes the BAF-3 buildings on the hilltop and those on the airstrip below, plus the roads connecting them and down to the beach landing area on the rocky coast. This scenery is made for the FSGenesis 76m terrain mesh for northern Canada, and there will be a repost of all my northern Canada airfields to suit this; I cannot think now why I never installed this mesh before. The AI reflects the use of civil airlines for resupply and transportation of personnel. Given the terrain the wind should be from the north so that ai lands using the 02 runway. Landing from the north will involve a terrain clash while take off towards the north will not as the climb out clears the hilltop. The video shows the 600 foot cliff at the runway threshold and an Air Tindi plane on the apron. Cartwright CYCA is on the Labrador coast and has been posted by Flight Ontario as part of their Goose Bay and Labrador Regional Airports sceneries. The nearby LAB-6 radar site is included here, connected to CYCA by an extended road. The site uses the same buildings as Brevoort and Saglek (posted recently) and although I have included them here as separate sceneries the contents can be placed in the same folders as Saglek with a saving in duplicated textures. The textures here are more accurate than Saglek so say yes to over-write; a downloader with personal experience of Brevoort noted that in reality they are lighter.

| Ontario Small Fields in Canada: #04 Stoney Point (Le Cunff) CRML V1 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is the fourth in a series of small airfields in southern Ontario, Canada. It is Stoney Point (Le Cunff) CRML, a field near a small town (Stoney Point) close to Lake St Clair. The airfield has a grass runway of 2,250 feet, aligned 18/36; with trees around the house gardens between road and runway the south threshold is displaced by 250 feet. The markers approximately show the touchdown point north of the runway end. Le Cunff is the family name of the owners, included to differentiate between this and another Stoney Point field, CRJ2. I found the default FS9 airfield at the correct elevation of 625 feet, but sitting on a plateau, despite my Genesis Mesh. This looked so unreal that I have revised this to an incorrect lower elevation of 580. So if you find the airfield sitting in a hole in your installation you now know the reason. Let me know, with a screenshot please.

| Cape Hooper CWFH and FOX-4 DEW Line Station in Nunavut, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Cape Hooper is around 60 miles north of Kivitoo (FOX-D) and 140 miles south of Clyde River CYCY on the northeast-facing coast of Baffin Island. FOX-4 is still in use as a new and mostly-unmanned North Warning System site was established there in 1990 before the DEW line station was closed in 1991. Actually the DEW line station was not "closed" as such, they just stopped using it. The site of FOX-4 is on the top of a bump at the end of one of many long promontories that stick out into the Davis Strait between Baffin Island and Greenland, close to the far eastern end that is called Cape Hooper. There is a gravel runway to the west, down at 65' ASL; it is only just over 3,000' long and most material was delivered by sea to the beach at the southern end of the runway. The runway is signed as
"324T - 144T" as this is Northern Domestic Airspace where all runways are signed "true" and not "magnetic"; it is 013/193 magnetic with a huge magnetic variation of 48.9 degrees in this area where the magnetic field is mostly vertical, and so useless for navigation.

| Stewart CZST and CAC9 in British Columbia Canada, plus Hyder 4Z7 in AK |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Stewart is in northern British Columbia, around 115 miles north of Terrace, 70 miles northeast of the open sea, and 2 miles from the Canada/US border at the head of a fjord named the Portland Canal. Both Stewart and the nearby Hyder in AK thrived along with silver and gold mining in the early 1900's in the AK and BC interiors and in 1914 Stewart's population was over 10,000, but the current population is now less than 500. This scenery includes Stewart airport (CZST) and also Stewart floats (CAC9) plus Hyder floats 4Z7 which is within sight of Stewart but in Alaska. 4Z7 is based upon the three FSAddon freeware and payware Alaska sceneries, and without whichever one covers Hyder (I forget which) the float base will be isolated way offshore. The Stewart airport is adjacent to the town. There is a single runway that is unlit and just under 4,000 feet of asphalt aligned 18-36, with right hand circuits on 18; a brief view of the surrounding terrain makes it quite clear why. This version is for a period around 2010 to 2012 or so, before a second fuel tank was installed. There are no regularly scheduled flights to Stewart, only GA and charters, but the airport survives with the tourist trips. I have not forgotten the signage for CZST; there isn't any. There is also no clearly defined and fenced boundary to the airport, with a gravel apron beyond the asphalt that then fades to dirt and grass and a road. Hyder has no land connection to the rest of Alaska except through Stewart and a long road trip; the only direct link is by float plane to Ketchikan, 75 miles in a straight line. The AI includes this.

| Komakuk Beach & Storm Hills DEW sites in Yukon and Northwest Territories, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
These are DEW line sites in northern mainland Canada, to the west of Tuktoyaktuk.
Komakuk Beach CWKB is not included in FS9 and is in the Yukon, only 20 miles from the Alaska border. It is, as the name suggests, close to the sea, and the gravel runway 3,600' by 125' has its western end almost on the beach.
There is no lighting and no signage and the airfield is officially listed as closed, but in fact is used during the annual maintenance and refuelling of the automated NWS (North Warning Station) close by and for any unscheduled servicing. This replaced the previous much older DEW station that was manned year round and had a lot more buildings.
Storm Hills CWSH is in the Northwest Territories, 43 miles south-southwest of Tuktoyaktuk, up on higher land at 810 feet ASL. The NWS (there was no previous DEW station at this site) is serviced by helicopter from Tuktoyaktuk and has a gravel landing pad on the north side of the station. It will show on a gps and it is 5 miles west of the distinctively shaped and large Parsons Lake. This too was not in FS9.

| Alternates for Durban Island CWFB FOX-E DEW line station in Nunavut, Canada |
|
File Description:
These are alternative bgls that include a flatten. They will change the shape of the hill that the FOX-E station sits on top of, but they will also make sure that there are no "floating" or "buried" scenery objects. If you are having that problem then just throw these into the scenery folder that you already created when you installed Durban Island, and say Yes! to over-write or whatever the question is. If you have a mesh that is compatible with what I use then you won't be having that problem, so don't do anything.

| CYMJ 15 Wing Moose Jaw |
|
File Description:
CYMJ Moose Jaw is a Canadian Forces Base and headquarters for 15 Wing. This military airfield is situated approximately four miles south of the City of Moose Jaw. The airbase is home to the NATO Flying Training in Canada Program (CT-155 Hawk and CT-156 Harvard II aircraft) and 431 Air Demonstration (Snowbird) Squadron (CT-114 Tutor). This scenery was constructed using GMAX and represents the airport as it was in 2007 / 2008. It includes nearly all the buildings at the airport, taxiway and runway signs, as well as radar and radio transmission structures infield. CYMJ also includes a landclass file to better represent the terrain around the airport, at least as far as the limits of the default landscape will allow.
