Bonus Canadian Airport Facility Directory
1999-Nov-19

TURN ON WORD WRAP

Welcome to my FS bonus section. So I'm guessing you would like to know what this great bonus that I am promising is. Well a little while ago Rafael Garcia Sanchez released his great program Airport Facility Directory which allows you to add airports to FS98 Search Places section in the Go To Airport menu instead of having to go to the Scenery from 6.0 and before section. So I have taken all of the airports that I have created and using AFD have added these airports to the Search Places section. To find them just click on Country and select Canada. You'll see all of the default airports plus mine lisetd on the left side. Couple things to note though. You'll see there are two Calgary aiports listed, one is the default and the other is mine as I've already explained in CYYC9810.zip the differences. Mine is the Calgary International just below Calgary (Springbank). You'll also see Regina and Saskatoon listed. Currently these aerodromes only exist on my HD in beta versions but I plan to release them over the coming winter. Nothing big will happen if you select them other then you'll find yourself in the middle of the prairies. Unfortunately I couldn't add all of the starting points (such as at the gates) just the runway ones. You can still access the rest through the Scenery from 6.0 and before section. Hope this makes getting to my scenery easier.
