File Description:
This is a British Midland (BMI) circa 1995 repaint of the Fiftynorth / 50North Boeing 737-500, registered G-OBMY. The most noticeable difference with the 1990 scheme is the addition of a red cheatline under the white strip. Paintkit by Denis Minaev and Igor Borodin. Textures are 32bits format. Please take time to read the readme file included. Fiftynorth Boeing 737-500 basepack (payware) is REQUIRED.

| Knight Inlet CF36 float base in British Columbia, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Knight Inlet is a floating lodge that organises "nature experiences", ranging from close encounters with local grizzly bears to fishing. Knight Inlet is to the north of "the narrows" where the Inside Passage gets squeezed between the mainland and Vancouver Island, and there is a chart section attached with a pointer to the location. At the bottom of the chart is Campbell River floatbase, and to the west is Port Hardy. Knight Inlet initially runs east-west, and the lodge is tucked into a smaller north-south offshoot, close to where the main inlet turns north. The water runway here is in the middle of the north-south offshoot, though of course in reality the "runway" is wherever the wind dictates it to be. The names highlighted in green on the chart are float bases to be renovated and posted with working AI. The buoyed log boom next to the lodge is to keep escaped logs from drifting in and colliding with boats; float plane pilots keep their eyes peeled too. Because of large hills adjacent to the lodge the landing of the AI may or may not take place, depending on wind direction and whether or not they fly into rock before landing. Take off and departure are far more reliable, particularly if the wind is from the south. Most of the AI is from Vancouver Harbour, Harbour Air Otters and West Coast Air Beavers, plus a SeAir Beaver from Campbell River and a private Cessna from the nearby Minstrel Island. This is the second in a series of new and renovated float bases in BC (the first being Sproat Lake) and to cope with the AI demands FSAddon have authorised the inclusion here of a bunch of AI Otters and Beavers that were originally part of a payware scenery for the area. Thanks are due there.

| Minstrel Island CAX7 float base in British Columbia, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is the third in a series of new and renovated float bases in BC. Minstrel Island is on the south side of Knight Inlet and 25 miles west of Knight Inlet Lodge (the previous post in this series). There is a resort on the island, though it is hidden from the air by the trees. Fuel and oil are both available at the dock, and there is a 17 feet tidal range, which would be interesting of it could be replicated in FS. The AI is an adaptation of that for CF36 and involves a GA Cessna, and a Seair Beaver flying from Campbell River to Knight Inlet Lodge via Minstrel Island. Again, because of large hills the landing of the AI may or may not take place, depending on wind direction and whether or not they fly into solid rock before landing. Take off and departure will take place. Ultimate Terrain Alaska/Canada would be a definite plus to get the water in the right shape and place. This scenery will not work without it.

| Port McNeill CAM8 float base in British Columbia, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is the seventh in a series of new and renovated float bases in BC. Port McNeill is a float base in a sheltered inlet on the northeast coast of Vancouver Island, close to the town and just under 20 miles east of the Port Hardy float base. There is no fuel available as the Port Hardy floatbase (already posted) acts as a refuelling centre for this and other float bases in the neighbourhood. The dock is to the west of the marina and east of the log raft area. The AI is a further adaptation of the CF36 AI and involves Beavers as listed in the AI folder. At Port McNeill all the AI works for both landing and takeoff for all of the planes, no matter what the wind direction is. All of these float bases can be installed together in the same folders, with a saving in duplicate textures. So a series called BC Floats (or whatever you want to call it) or individually installed float bases; your choice. The next in the series was suposed to be Sullivan Bay, another floating marina, but I digressed to Port Hardy and Port McNeill.

| Coal Harbour CAQ3 float base in British Columbia, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is number eight in a series of new and renovated float bases in BC. Coal Harbour is in a sheltered cove off Holberg Inlet on the northwest coast of Vancouver Island, close to the village and 10 miles southwest of the Port Hardy float base. There is 100LL fuel and oil available. Due to the deep fjords that run into Vancouver Island from the west coast Coal Harbour is actually closer to the east coast than it is to the west coast. The tortuous route in through Quatsino Sound and Rupert Sound shelters the waters of Holberg Inlet from the stormy seas of the west coast, and fishing boats take advantage of this. The floatplane dock is to the south of the large (and old) hangar, adjacent to the southern end of the fixed dock where the ramp bridge descends to the floating docks. The video makes it clearer. The AI is a further adaptation of the CF36 AI and involves Beavers and Otters as listed in the AI folder. Due to the surrounding hills there may be some interference with AI aircraft, depending on the wind direction, though I have watched succesful Beaver and Otter landings. Amid the hills there is a very large hole in the ground to the east. The village name suggests it may have been for coal but though in fact there was a coal mine, that was a much smaller and unsuccesful venture; this particular scene of enthusiastic digging was for copper, until 1996. The main claim to fame of Coal Harbour was that it was the last whaling station in North America, using the buildings that were part of the RCAF float plane patrol base during WW2. One downloader reported a texture problem with Port McNeill, to which we found a solution. As he was the only person to email me I am going to presume that nobody else had the problem.

| Nimpo Lake CF04 and CF51 in British Columbia, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Nimpo Lake is less than 10 miles south of Anahim Lake, and is a centre for fishing lodges and other "nature" activities such as hiking and hunting etc. As a result there is considerable float plane activity on the lake as clients are flown in, or out, to other lakes that are nearby, or just on sightseeing jaunts. This one, CF04, is the last of a trio of Nimpo Lake float bases, and is at the far end of the lake from the other two. It is for Nimpo Lake Resort, a lodge and cottages to accommodate anglers and hikers etc. To the south of the lake, and included here, is what I have called Nimpo Lake Land CF51. It cannot by any stretch of imagination be called an airfield, but it is a cleared area and it has been used by wheeled planes. There is no runway as such and it is somewhat bumpy. The AI and the Beavers were included in the posting of CAF8.

| FSX British Columbia Airfields 1-3 For Default Scenery |
|
File Description:
60 British Columbia airfields/seaplane bases with surrounding scenery like lakes, landclass etc.. These sceneries are for the FSX default scenery, i.e. a scenery that does not have enhancements like Ultimate Terrain or ORBX which correct or add e.g. lakes, towns etc.
However, I do use additional freeware mesh sceneries, which are the "FSX Canada 19M Terrain Mesh" parts 1 and 2 by Raimundo Taburet (LOD 11) and the North America/Canada mesh from "FreeMesh X Global 1.0" (LOD 10). But in principle my sceneries should work with any mesh.
All files are named by their ICAO ID, so you can easlily remove any airfiled that you don't need or don't like.

| Chilanko Lodge CBX3 in British Columbia Canada version 2 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a revised post of Chilanko Lodge, which is an airstrip that serves the Lodge of the same name on the beach of One Eye Lake. The lake is close to the eastern side of the Coastal Range, 30 miles south of Nimpo Lake and 30 miles west of Puntzi Mountain, both previous posts. There is also a dock for float planes. The runway is 2,900 feet of gravel aligned 10-28, unlit, and at 2,972 feet above sea level. I remade this scenery as I was not very satisfied with the surrounding terrain, and then there was a reported terrain level problem. It is now better than the first time around, in my opinion anyway. I have posted it as version 2 of Chilanko Lodge CBX3, but I suggest that you add this to your "BC airfields" folder as previously suggested. Up to you. If you find a defect, email me.
