| Thompson CYTH in northern Manitoba, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Thompson is a city with around 13,000 inhabitants, located in northern Manitoba beside the Burntwood River. It serves as the administration centre for a large area of Manitoba and has industrial activities centred around mining and the processing of mined products. The version of the airport upon which this modification is based is the original posting in 2004 by CanUK Scenery. I would have made new buildings and a totally new scenery but I have the same problem as Sid and Pete in their later Thompson scenery: almost no photos!?! The update modifies the short end of the mainly gravel runway to asphalt (it was upgraded because it is regularly used as a taxiway) and also adds a later (2010?) gravel taxiway. The other ground modifications add allocated parking spots for fire fighting CL415 planes that are in the new AI, plus a lot more ga parking. You should already have some AI that includes Calm Air to see CYTH as it really is, the HQ of Calm Air. There are other additions including car parks and the usual sundry bits and pieces that inhabit every airfield. The CL415's with Manitoba textures are adaptations of what were originally Ontario planes and included with my post of Geraldton, not the most recent post in 2013, the one in 2007. If you don't have the planes get them from my Geraldton post. The AI version was made from the original piloted version which was by Massimo Taccoli. The AI helicopter was included in my post of Alma CYTF.

| CYVQ - Norman Wells - Northwest Territories, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Norman Wells is the last of a series of airfields that are along (or close to) the Mackenzie River and in the Northwest Territories. It is 290 miles southeast of Inuvik and just 40 miles northwest of Tulita. The town growth was accelerated by the discovery of oil in the 1930's and the building of a small refinery in 1937, which is included here; there are now around 840 folks living in the town. The airport is adjacent to the town and has just under 6,000 feet of asphalt runway. North Wright Airways is headquartered there and this is reflected in the AI, which is for all of the newly-posted Mackenzie River postings. There is also helicopter AI, Canadian North, First Air, and there are GA flights. There is a mandatory frequency and the Norman Wells tower is manned 24 hours a day so you will follow atc instructions. In real life the terminal is on two levels; this steep change in terrain level is not possible to achieve in FS9 so although I made it as a two level terminal (ready for the FSX version?) it is here modified into a single level building. There are several "taxiways" which lead to the runway but are without hold short markings. These have been shown but are not included as AI routes. The helicopters presumably hover-taxi to the runway across grass (and snow) in real life; the AI helicopter will taxi on wheels. Note that at mixed-use airports planes and helicopters all follow the same rules of procedure.

| CZFM - Fort McPherson - Northwest Territories, Canada |

Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is the first of a series of airfields that follow (approximately) that early access route to the Canadian northern shore, the Mackenzie River. At the far northern end of the river and on the eastern side of the delta there is Tuktoyaktuk, then 80 miles south is Inuvik (both already posted). 70 miles south of Inuvik is Fort McPherson, on the east bank of the Peel River, 20 miles west of the junction with the Mackenzie and on the Dempster Highway. The town has a population of around 830, and (as usual in the north!) was the site of a Hudson Bay trading post, the main post for the Mackenzie delta area for over 50 years. The airport is less than 2 miles to the south of the town, and has 3,500 feet of gravel runway. AI is two ga flights and a Buffalo Airways delivery trip that hops north and south from field to field; this will change with further posts. There is no fuel available.

| CYSK - Sanikiluaq - Southern Nunavut, Canada Revised |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Sanikiluaq is on one of the Belcher Islands in Hudson Bay, near the northern end of James Bay, and this is a revised version. It corrects the terminal that I made with limited information and faded memories the first time, adds in signage, runway lights, taxiway lights, terminal night textures, and revised AI. The "spare" parking space is the one next to the 4 gas drums on a pallet; line up with the traffic cone. It presumes you have already installed my September 2010 Sanikiluaq post, and this version is not complete by itself.

| CYXX Abbotsfor Intl - British Columbia, Canada. |

File Description:
This airport has been completely reworked using ADE v1.39 and satellite images from Google Earth and Microsoft Virtual Earth. Both runways have been extended to correct length: 01/19 from 5260ft to 5328ft and 07/25 from 7988ft to 9600ft (see attach airport chart). Thesholds have been corrected. VASI updated on both runwaysw. Xwind runways activated. Roads, buildings and apron areas updated. Static aircraft, vehicles, vegetation, fuel truck and automated jetways added. I have added flood lights to cover ramp and parking areas also red obstruction lights have been added to some taller buildings. These lights are visibled between the hours of dusk and dawn. For these light to be visible the included folder - FSX_LTS - must be placed in your Addon Scenery folder and activated.

File Description:
Royal Aviation Canada textures for Dee Waldron's AI Lockheed L1011 TriStar package, available here on AVSIM.
Excellent lo-poly model for traffic use, or even a little flying around. Model by Dee Waldron,
paint kit by Henry Tomkiewicz. This package just replaces the corrupted package due to the AVSIM hack. Nothing has changed.

| Teslin CYZW in the Yukon, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Teslin is a village on the Alaska Highway around 85 miles east of Whitehorse, on the banks of the very long Teslin Lake and where there is a sizeable bridge across an offshoot of the lake. The Hudson Bay trading company established a post there in 1903. The current population is a rather meagre 120 or so and the only reason I am making this scenery is that I know one of the 120. This scenery, in addition to the terrain, village, bridge, and airport items also modifies the Alaska Highway. The AI includes a school excursion trip on a chartered Air North Hawker Siddeley 748 on Saturday. There are no scheduled flights to the field. The runway is now around 5,600 feet of gravel aligned 08-26 and with VASI at both ends. It is lit with runway lighting on the tops of traffic cones, and you will need to download the lighting library from my earlier postings of either Allakaket Lights or Anaktuvuk Lights earlier this week. A note here about my scenery making. There will not be many more to follow this as I am almost at the end of the photos I either took or found for scenery purposes, plus I expect to move on from FS9 at some point during next year.

| CYDA - Dawson City - Yukon Territory, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Dawson City is in the Yukon Territory, Canada, 140 miles south of Old Crow and about the same north of Whitehorse. The town has a population of just over 1,300 and is on the bank of the Yukon River; it is busy with nearby gold mining and tourism. There are regular flights by Air North, the Yukon airline, and I have included them in the AI along with ConAir and GA. Thanks go to Hernan for his Air North textures. The airport is beside the Klondike Highway that links Dawson City to Whitehorse, a few miles southwest of the town and the river. The runway approaches are steeper than most because of the surrounding hills and the Canada Flight Supplement notes that use is restricted to daylight hours, with some exceptions including emergencies. Runway 20 has right hand circuits. The runway is gravel and just over 5,000 feet long, aligned 02-20. There is a second apron for the activities of ConAir etc in the summer fire-fighting months. The "masts" are actually for fire hose drying; the ends of several 50 feet lengths are attached to a circular holder that is then pulled up to the top of the central pole.
