| Sproat Lake CAA9 on Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Sproat Lake is in the middle of southern Vancouver Island, 6 miles west of the town of Port Alberni and 30 miles directly south of Comox Valley Airport. It is some 14 miles long and around the eastern shores has a large number of houses with docks and boats. Plus, in the offshoot called Upper Sproat Lake, it has the Sproat Lake Tankerbase CAA9, home to two rather large Martin Mars firefighting planes. Their history is interesting, and their capacity for carrying water for dousing forest fires during the summer months has kept them in use since their construction in the 1940's. They have finally been retired from fighting fires in 2013, having been first retired from military service in 1958. This scenery is made for use with Ultimate Terrain; there was another version made several years ago which either predated or ignored UT. This scenery is for the month when a Mars was being repainted before retiring to a museum as a military plane, date unkown but perhaps 2013? If it is a time when there were three in existance then it is sometime in the 1960's; take your pick. Because of hills adjacent to the lake the landing of the AI Mars may or may not take place, depending on wind direction and whether or not it flies into rock before landing. Take off and departure seem to be more reliable than landing on a daily basis. The Mars flies to Vancouver Harbour, but only in theory; it does not land and park as there is no parking available for such a large aircraft. The AI follows in the second post.

| Union Island TVSU in the Grenadines, eastern Caribbean Version 1.1 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This is a self-contained version 1.1 that modifies the terrain flattens around the airport. I found that suddenly, and for no apparent reason, the Lesser Antilles mesh and my flattens were at war and creating hills within the airport boundary. If you are not having problems then you do not need this.
Union Island is in the southern tail of the chain of islands known as St Vincent and the Grenadines, between Canouan and Carriacou. Union is another small island, 3.5 miles long and at its widest 1.5 miles wide; the resident population is around 3,000, mostly in the two towns Clifton and Ashton. The airport is at the eastern end of the island, and has been extended into the sea on landfill. The runway is now around 2,480 feet long, aligned 08 (and with the southeast trade winds it is unlikely that you will find yourself using 26) and with a displaced threshold of 530 feet due to the hill to the west. The terminal is adjacent to a rather small apron; there is parking on the grass north of the taxiway. There are connecting flights by SVG to Barbados and the other islands and these are reflected in the AI. The airport has no lighting, and flights are obliged to land and depart in daylight hours only, outside of which the airport is closed.

| Rae Lakes CYRA at Gameti in the Northwest Territories, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Gameti is a village in the Northwest Territories, around 65 miles north of Whati which was recently posted. Until 2005 the village, which has a population of around 280, was known as Rae Lakes and the airfield is now renamed Gameti/Rae Lakes as shown in the 2010 version of the Nav Canada Flight Supplement, my standard reference year. Permanent settlement was established there in 1965. There is no all-weather road access and the village is reliant upon the airfield for supplies, along with an ice road in the winter months. The airfield is a mile or so east of the village, with a lit gravel runway of just over 3,000 feet aligned 14-32 and with PAPI at both ends. The airfield is served by Air Tindi from Yellowknife on an almost daily basis, included in the AI here along with some GA and a Friday delivery by a Buffalo DC3 that uses all of the runway. The runway has lake water at each end, ready for the unwary. 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.

| Indian Creek Farm Field CF07 near Ottawa in Ontario, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Indian Creek farm field (Re-upload WITH THE MISSING TEXTURES!) is in Ontario and southeast of Ottawa, less than two miles east of two other real-life farm fields I have already posted (Russell Farm, and Russellette Strip). The creek is just north of the runway in the trees, though it doesn't show in FS with or without Ultimate Terrain.
There is a grass runway 08/26 that is 2,100 feet long and has lights; the grass could be better (I mean there could be more of it) but the drainage is good. There is a large hangar that is right by the house and is heated (wow!); this is for the owner. There are also eight other hangars which are slightly basic and without doors, which means boxes over the wheels so the tires don't get chewed by the wild life and canvas hangar fronts for the winter. All the hangar buildings are modeled specifically for this scenery. The runway has been there for 22 years, and before that (though with a large gap between) there was a military grass strip as a relief field for nearby Pendleton .

| Mackenzie River close to Tulita CZFN in Northwest Territories Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
I discovered, while testing another airfield near the Mackenzie River, that along the side of the Mackenzie adjacent to Tulita, and for a considerable distance, there was a cliff of water. I have no idea if my version of Ultimate Terrain has developed a fault or if this has been caused by the installation of a terrain mesh that now argues with UT for some unknown reason. Whatever, it was impossible to leave it as it was. I have included a screenshot of the cliff further upstream. To avoid the cliff of water I have flattened that area of the Mackenzie River and the adjacent river banks and both the town and the airfield to a height above sea level of 400 feet. This does not reflect the real life situation but is the lesser of two optical evils. I have included a screenshot of the flattened area. If you do not have a problem then you do not need this. If you too have a cliff of water then you might want to try this. It does not completely get rid of the problem, but it does get rid of it in the area visible when landing or taking off at Tulita.

| Red Lake (CYRL) and (CKS4) V2 Fix in Ontario, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This V2 Fix adds missing textures for the town buildings around the float base CKS4; thanks to Guido, Harry, and Jens for pointing out the mising items. Unzip the textures into the CYRL texture folder, and say yes to over-write as these are ALL the building textures (I hope); this was easier than checking individual missing files. In the notes there is a further complaint from me regarding downloaders who SEE that textures are missing and then do not email me; it is easy for you to see while I cannot visually check; all my textures have to be in the main texture folder and are therefore never missing. I have to go through lists of objects and then lists of their textures.

| Bank Farm Farm Field CF09 near Ottawa in Ontario, Canada |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
Bank Farm field is in Ontario and around 11 miles south and a bit east of Ottawa airport, just west of Bank Street that wriggles its way south out of Ottawa. There is a grass runway 08/26 (actually 085/265) that is 2,600 feet long, and the grass could not possibly be better. A small (and old) hangar is now only used to house the farm owner's Cessna 172 during the winter. There is a large (and also old) barn and the house is right on the approach to the runway from the east; approach 08 between the barn and the house and straightens it out on very short finals.
The hangar, barn, and house are modeled specifically for this scenery, as was the log pile.

| 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.
