| Ontario Small Fields in Canada: #03 Essex CNE9 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is the third in a series of small airfields in southern Ontario, Canada. It is Essex CNE9, a field near a small town of the same name close to Lake Erie and just northwest of Harrow (visible in one of the screenshots). The airfield has a grass runway of just 1,935 feet, with electric cables strung along the west side of the road on the approach to 09, buried for a short stretch the width of the runway (but avoid the poles). The airfield has three hangars, not the first farm strip to have more than the expected one-for-the-farmer. The intention is that downloaders will add further posts to the earlier ones, which will avoid uneccesary texture duplication etc. The fourth airfield will probably be Stoney Point CRML, a grass field to the northeast of Essex, close to Lake St. Clair.

| FS9 Bar River CPF2 in Ontario, Canada UPDATE |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is an update for Bar River, the missing textures for a parked Norseman. There would have been an error message when you ran the scenery, but this was reported to me by only one down-loader. As I have previously stated, there is no way for me to easily check that I have included everything needed, and I (and other designers) rely on end-user participation for information when I have erred from the straight and narrow. A response rate of less than 1% is way short of "participation".

| 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.

| Repost of Dryden Regional CYHD in Ontario Canada |
|
File Description:
This repost is first to deal with some lighting problems on the runways (though I still couldn't get rid of the taxiway lights that head off across the grass) and also to provide the right AFCAD file.
Dryden is in northwest Ontario on the shore of Wabigoon Lake. The airfield is some five miles northeast of the town. It has two runways, one 2,000 feet long and sand, the other 11/29 and 6,000 feet of asphalt 150 feet wide. There is a terminal building, a hangar for Thunder Airlines, and some GA hangars at and near the western apron, and in the Summer there is a flock of fire-fighting Canadair CL415 amphibs at the eastern apron together with the Ministry of Natural Resources Ontario fire fighting headquarters establishment, accomodation, and maintenance facilities. Among others Bearskin Airlines fly there, a wonderful punning name.

| Ontario Small Fields in Canada: #01 Leamington (CLM2) |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is the first of a series of small airfields in southern Ontario, Canada. It is Leamington CLM2, a field near a small town of the same name beside Lake Erie. The airfield has an asphalt runway of 3,820 feet, though with displaced thresholds at each end due to electric cable strung along the roads for an effective landing length of around 2,800. Right-hand circuits for runway 19 to avoid over-flying a nature reserve around a stretch of shallow water to the northeast. The intention is that downloaders will add further posts to the first, which will avoid unnecessary texture duplication (for instance for parked cars or planes) and avoid adding yet another small field to the FS9 scenery library. The second airfield will probably be Harrow CGL2, a grass field to the west of Leamington.

| Ontario Small Fields in Canada: #6 Nixon CNX8 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is the sixth in a series of small airfields in southern Ontario Canada, Nixon CNX8, an airfield 20 miles south of Brantford and 10 miles north of Lake Erie, just west of the small town of Simcoe. It was not included in FS9 as it did not exist then; I do not know when it was first registered, but it was prior to April 2010 (the date of the oldest copy of the Canada Flight Supplement that I have with me). The airfield has a grass runway of 2,800 feet aligned 12/30, unlit. The owner has a small crop-spraying business, and there are also hangars rented to local plane owners. Fuel and oil is available.
This scenery post is not necessarily complete in itself and presumes you are adding it to the series of Ontario Small Fields.

| CYKF - Kitchener, Regional Muni of Waterloo - Ontario Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
The town of Kitchener is in southern Ontario, 40 miles southwest of Toronto. The population is just over half a million, including the adjoining Cambridge and Waterloo which are known locally as the Tri Cities. The Kitchener name was adopted in 1916, replacing the former "City of Berlin".
The airport is on the northeastern side of the town, with the main runway aligned 08-26 and just over 7,000 feet of asphalt 150 feet wide, lit, with PAPI at both ends and approach lighting and ILS on 26. The second runway is aligned 14-32 and is 4,100 feet long, lit and with PAPI at both ends; right hand circuits for 32. The airport is being steadily enlarged and improved, with new hangars for rental, operators, and maintenance companies. The largest and most visible presence is the training operation located just off the southwest end of taxiway A, where there are 14 Cessna 172, 2 Cessna 152, 2 Piper Seminole, and others. These are represented in the AI. There are morning and evening scheduled flights by Westjet to Calgary and American Eagle to Chicago, also in the AI. To the southwest, past taxiway C, there is GA parking; request taxi to what is named here "southwest parking" where there are spaces on both grass and asphalt. To the southeast, along a taxiway off the southeast corner of the main apron, are mainly operators and maintenance facilities. This version of CYKF includes the new(ish) terminal, the first of the new central rental hangars alongside the new taxiway and access road, and the very new large hangar off taxiway C, but not the new airport services building (fire and snow clearance) that is off to the southeast of taxiway A, and not the new car park to the south of the airport access road. So an uncertain and possibly historically innacurate date, but with the correct taxiway lighting and signage, and building textures from photographs.

| Carp CYRP updated, near Ottawa in Ontario Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This version updates the post of 2006 with specifically modelled buildings for the east apron, plus a new AFCAD file. This is a stand-alone version and does not require you to have downloaded and installed the previous post. 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 polulation of general aviation residents and two years ago was expanding under new ownership, with a new terminal building and a large hangar opened and the "Touch'n Go" aviation warehouse that has opened more recently. The first version of Carp really included only the west apron, as that is where all (or almost all) the general aviation is located. I "represented" the east apron buildings without modelling any of them. This version corrects that, and the modeled east apron buildings are the HQ of Helicopter Transport Services Inc. and the adjacent Bell Helicopter service hangar, and the old First Air hangar and offices which are now under new ownership. The smaller hangars on the other side of the apron belong to chapter 245 of the Experimental Aircraft Association.

| Armstrong Ontario; one airfield and two float bases |
|
File Description:
Armstrong CYYW airfield is 70 miles northeast of Thunder Bay, and close to Lake Nipigon. There isn't much of interest at the airfield by way of buildings (as there aren't many buildings!) and the only plane I saw was a fire fighting Canadaair CL 415. A basic airfield with one runway with lights and one without, and no maintenance. There is fuel, but it is locked up and not for sale.
The two float bases are 5 miles west (CJF6) and 10 miles southwest (CKN6) of Armstrong airfield. Lake Mackenzie is home to two companies, Armstrong Outposts (two Beavers) and Huron Air & Outfitters (an Otter and a Beaver) who both run fishing and hunting lodges. Wilderness North are further south on Lake Waweig, and I think they fly two Otters and a Beaver to their outpost camps. You need Ultimate Terrain, or there won't be any lakes!

| 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.
