CycleC0mmuter Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 7 hours ago, FlynBrian said: Stoney Point Trepanier is near the shore of Lake St Clair in that corridor of turbines and while testing a left hand circuit on 27 I nearly clipped one because I turned left too soon without enough altitude, and i agree with Yan's point Looks like this will be a great addition also. And yes, I fully understand and agree with Jan regarding the submission to the gateway of wind turbine's miles away from an airport. Being new to the scenery gateway I misunderstood it's use/intention as a tool for scenery designers to submit airport scenery to laminar, rather than submit any/all scenery to the x-plane community. In that sense, the wind turbine discussion is most definitely something for the .org but not the gateway. And I'll *try* to have patience waiting for aiports to be added in future updates, but when I've discovered someone doing quality work so close to an area I'm familiar flying in, it's much too tempting to add a few close to home airfields Thanks again! Cheers and happy flying! Steve. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CycleC0mmuter Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 (edited) @FlynBrian if I were to give you the coordinates for four grass stips close to my house, would you have a look at them and decide if you'd like to add any of them to your My Ontario Airports collection? One is located 42.152709, -83.066025. One is at 42.174554, -83.079298. One is 42.128283, -82.992152. And the last one is 42.080490, -82.776024 None of them apear on skyvector but are active little strips with local pilots. There are a couple of large solar farms in the area that are easily seen on the satelite photo on google maps, along with some radio towers that local vfr pilots refer to as McGreggor towers when entering the windsor control zone Edited August 29, 2019 by CycleC0mmuter added air photos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janov Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 FlynBrian would need a bit more info, if possible - he would need to have Laminar Research create those strips and add them to the X-Plane database of airports. The coordinates are a first step, but it helps to have some more info if it is available, like "name", "Aviation authority ID", "elevation", "City/locality", "Province", etc...

I do know the family at the 3rd one (near McGregor) so that one will be no problem at all to get any needed additional info.... The others, I'm sure I could enquire about if you need more info.

FlynBrian Posted September 2, 2019 Author Share Posted September 2, 2019 Hi CycleCOmmuter, the elevations are guesstimates please firm them up and if you could either get me the family names or the names of the little towns closes to these locations to use as their names I'll do my best to get codes to submit them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlynBrian Posted September 12, 2019 Author Share Posted September 12, 2019 That's good in the mean time I'll be working on Eastern Ontario wedged between New York and Quebec. Also flying the Cessna float plane using 11.4ob3 which stalls very much better and the plane does not bob up and down on the water. Eastern ON has a mix of WEDbot, old 3D assets and non existent real airports Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
