Canada is sleeping scenery??

Aside from CYUL and CYVR. Who has scenery payware for CYOW, CYWG, CYYC, CYEG ? As for the Arctic I only see Iqaluit CYFB up for development at Quebec developer site.
 
The issue with them is you have to buy Halifax, the rest is expansion. While they are excellent and quality I only need CYOW, CYWG if buying from them. I would include there upcoming CYYC, but it is beta marked and P3DV2 ?? I just don't fly to Halifax that often to warrant buying it and my routes call for CYUL or CYOW to get to CYFB.
 
there Hay river is a staple in my FSX/P3D. Red Deer although pose's FTX issue's. the one there I really would like to know if possible to work in FSX is the Fs9 Red Lake CYDF.
 
If freeware may be considered, there is some excellent scenery available from Sidney Schwartz, especially many northern locations including CYZF. Although this one (filename cyzfyellowknifenwt.zip ) is for FS2004, the same developer has sceneries tailored for both FS2004 & FSX, so there may be a version for the latter, although I cannot locate it right now. There is another FSX scenery for the same area, cyzfssv1.zip . Lastly, I hope it's not tacky to suggest my own scenery, CFB North Star/CYNS, located in the high Arctic. Although fictitious, a similar project might someday become viable. Filename cyns_v7_fs9.zip (2004) or cyns_v7_fsx.zip (FSX), with version 7 being definitive.
 
Is mesh considered scenery? Or is it just plain, old terrain? Cause I could tell you about something I'm trying to release before the Doctors start gluing me back together...
 
What's an Arctic Territory? Does getting a Reward for northern most airport qualify?

Gotta do some more work on the neighbor to the west and the border area between the two.


If anyone wants to see a real mesh mess, go line up along -141 longitude and fly south from the top. That's a mess!

In case it hasn't been mentioned, there's a wealth of excellent scenery available by Roger Wensley.

It's mostly for the far North, but there's a fair representation of the lower parallels, as well. Made primarily for FS9, but it works well in FSX.

Just go to FlightSim.com and in the File Library, Search for Roger Wensley

Roger's done excellent work, imltho!
 
I am currently running Roger's and Sidney's works thru the Arctic equipped with FTX Vector. Atm Roger's CYCO loves it as does my MPE/FAB AI and they also love Sid'd Churchill Manitoba with the Polar Bear Jail lol. Vector has not been a issue with those two. However NRM of FTX plays with CYQF from Flight Ontario and there CYHY is unaffected and works right from the EXE which is good.
