Swan's Simple Parking Areas: Canada Pack 1
Swan's Simple Parking Areas has one goal, to add "cold & dark" parking areas to airfields which lack them.
I hate having to spawn on a runway, so I made a collection of extremely simple edits, adding parking areas to 30 bush strips in Canada.
This addon does not add any additional scenery or anything other than the parking spawn points.
Airfields in this pack include:
CAX2, CBH4, CBK7, CBV6, CDC3, CEM3, CFB7, CFF4, CFF6, CFL8, CFP5, CFT3, CFW5, CJV4, CJW4, CKL4, CKS8, CKW6, CNL9, CTM7, CYFL, CYFP, CYJP, CYKC, CYKE, CYUB, CZFD, CZFN, CZJG, CZTM.
Other available packs include: North Africa, Amazonia, Australia.
Additional areas of the world will likely follow.
Download, pick any (or all) of the airport folders to put into your Community folder, profit.
Here's a breakdown for anyone that's wondering...
MB - Manitoba:
SK - Saskatchawan:
AB - Alberta:
BC - British Columbia:
NOTE - It appears there are 2 Fort Nelson Airports in the sim:
NU - Nunavut:
NT - Northwest Territories:
YT - Yukon Territories:

Hi Swan,
This is a really great idea. There's nothing worse than no parking spots at an airport/airstrip.
One question, I can guess the answer, but I'll ask for anyone else that may be wondering;
e.g. If I have your "CFT3 - Finlayson Lake Airstrip" package installed, should I use the 'swan-airport-cft3-watson-lake' file from this package also, or is it an either/or situation ?
Great work...thanks...
NOTE - It appears there are 2 Fort Nelson Airports in the sim:
Also - a couple clarifications;
1) You have 'cyfp-fort-mcpherson'
CYFP is "?"
Fort McPherson Airport is "CZFM"
2) You have 'swan-airport-cyke-kugluktuk'
CYKE is "?"
Kugluktuk Airport is "CYCO"

You should pick either one or the other. In future I will probably try to not include a Simple Parking for any strips which I have covered fully, to avoid confusion.
Those ICAOs and names are what the sim gives them by default in the editor (sometimes it goes by region name for some reason), I largely leave them alone as to speed up the process and avoid any conflicts with the ATC (and me not being familiar at all with the area), though I can change this if it is an issue.
Thank you for sorting the list into regions too!
