| Baker Lake CYBK in Nunavut, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Baker Lake is the only Nunavut community that is not next to the sea. It is, as you might have guessed, on the shore of Baker Lake and 160 miles west and a bit north of Rankin Inlet on the shore of Hudson Bay (a recent post by Sid and Pete). The Hudson Bay Company opened a trading post there in 1916 and the town slowly developed, though as recently as 1946 the population was still only 32. These days the airfield is the support field for several nearby mines and there are now nearly 1,800 folks in Baker Lake using the stores, schools, churches, hospital, etc. The runway is almost 4,200' of 100' wide gravel and lighted; the alignment is 162T and 342T as this is in northern domestic airspace and bearings are given as 'true" and not "magnetic". Both JETA and 100LL fuel is available. The town is to the northeast of the airfield and is made up of a landclass without autogeneration, as this would mean a bunch of trees that would be, to say the least, unrealistic.

| Carp CYRP in Ontario Canada (updated October 2011) |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This version further updates the post of 2006 and the 2009 update with more bespoke buildings for the west GA apron plus the revised fuelling area, and corrected surroundings with large forested areas and a modified airfield grass shape. This is a stand-alone version and does not require you to have downloaded and installed the previous posts; this REPLACES those versions. Carp airfield is fifteen miles west of Ottawa and two miles south of the town of Carp. There are two runways, 10/28 which is asphalt and almost 4,000 feet long and 100 feet wide, and 04/22 which is gravel and 2,000 feet long. The airfield has a fairly large population of general aviation residents and is slowly expanding under new ownership. This version models the large hangar beside the terminal, the "Touch'n Go" aviation warehouse that has opened more recently, and the ramshackle collection of hangars and sheds that make up Westair, the maintenance facility. The nearby pagoda-roof flight school building has in fact now been demolished, but I like it too much to do that, at least until something else has been built on that space.

| St Jovite CSZ3 in Quebec Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
St Jovite is a grass strip in Quebec near the town of St Jovite and the Mont Tremblant tourist area. This updated version has specifically modeled buildings etc. The unlighted runway is 3,300 feet long, aligned 02/20, and there is now fuel available, so that's a change for the better. However, there is also a landing fee and charges for overnight parking, though the fee is waived if you buy fuel. Based upon my experience of St Jovite there is no AI required for added realism; you will be the only plane visiting and that will be totally realistic. There must be a busy time, but I have never seen it. The aerial picture shows St Jovite from the south, with Lac Ouimet and Mont Tremblant beyond.

| Coral Harbour CYZS in Nunavut, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Coral Harbour is on Southampton Island, which partly blocks the northern end of Hudson Bay and is around the size of Switzerland. The village has a population of just under 800 people and is some 200 miles from Cape Dorset, Ivujivik, and Repulse Bay, and 230 miles from Chesterfield Inlet to the southwest. Cape Dorset and Ivujivik have already been posted and Chesterfield Inlet will be posted later this month. The airfield is inland from the village and the 5,000 feet of gravel runway is aligned 155T/335T where T stands for "true" as opposed to magnetic in the Northern Domestic Airspace. JETA-1 fuel is officially available, and in practice so is 100LL, though the latter will be in drums. The visiting AI airlines are First Air and Calm Air.

|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is the second scenery of the "VFR of Lario" project that follows the previous LagoComo_A1, made with photorealistic terrain (multiseason & night) and with some 3D GMax realistic objects. With this scenery there are also enclosed the great realistic meshes that cover all the Como lake area.
Information: Como's lake (called Lario), is placed in the north of Italy, closed to the Helvetic border. This second scenery covers approximately an area of 7.5x6 kmt, from Bosco di Falmoira/Rondago (NW) to Nesso (NE), and from Balerna/Chiasso (SW) to monte Bolletto (SE), and includes some details of the towns around the lake as Cernobbio (pier, Villa Erba and Convention Center, Villa d'Este, Akzo Nobel buildings), Moltrasio (pier), Carate Urio (pier), Laglio (villa Oleandra), Brienno (buildings and pier), Nesso (pier), Careno (pier), Faggeto Lario (pier), Torno (building and Pier), Blevio (pier).
Contents: several piers and small docks, motor ships and boats, an animated hydrofoil; some other buildings (GenericBuilding system) and trees widespread all over the scenery. Review of Brunate's funicolar and Castel Baradello, due to updated meshes.

| 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.

| CYVP - Kuujjuaq - Quebec, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Kuujjuaq is in northern Quebec at the southern end of Ungava Bay, and 30 miles up the Koksoak River. Kuujjuaq has a population of around 2,400; it was previously called Fort Chimo and in 1830 there was a Hudson Bay trading post established close by, but on the other bank of the river. A nursing station and a school were established in 1948 and the Hudson Bay post moved across the river to the current location. The airport is to the south of the town and, unusally for northern airfields, has two runways. The asphalt runway is 6,000 feet long and aligned 07/25, and the gravel runway is 5,000 feet long and aligned 13/31; 07 has ILS. There is fuel available, both 100LL and JetA, but the 100LL will be in drums and you are required to have your own pump. There are numerous flights that stop at Kuujjuaq; the AI included here has Air Creebec, First Air, Wasaya Airways, and Air Inuit (Kuujjuaq is a maintenance centre for Air Inuit) plus private flights by various aircraft. There is also a flight by my poor representation of a Helicopter Transport Services chopper. There is a float base on the nearby Stewart Lake during the summer months. The base is within the Kuujjuaq control zone, and normally you would talk to the tower and inform them of your intentions, but in FS9 this cannot be replicated.

| 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.
