| Dixie A05 Forest Service airfield in Idaho USA |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This airfield is in the mountains of Idaho, the first in a series. There are not many mountain airfields that can be succesfully modelled in FS9 because the FS9 terrain does not always match reality; no creek for instance, or the valley too small. There are others where the grass strip is all there is, so there is nothing to model apart from resizing the cleared area. Some are well known, well maintained, have clean shower facilities, and are well used for a weekend by small planes with two people and a tent on board, for instance Johnson Creek. Others are less well known but still in good condition, such as Dixie or Big Creek. And there are also some with cabin rental facilities, such as Sulphur Creek Ranch. Other names come to mind, such as Flying B and Pistol Creek, but unfortunately for one reason or another these could not be made. The other difficulty involving hills is succesful AI landings and take offs. At Johnson Creek, for instance, the wind should be from the south to make AI landings more likely to succeed. Dixie is south of the village of the same name, and not to be confused with the dirt strip that is just beside the village. The runway is at 5,148 feet ASL, just over 4,000 feet long and aligned 18-36, and the parking area is at the northern end, opposite the Forest Service buildings. There is a chart of the area included, and to the south of Dixie is the next in the series, Big Creek U60.

| Big Creek U60 public use airfield in Idaho USA |
|
File Description:
This airfield is in the mountains of Idaho, 30 miles south of Dixie A05, which was the first in the series to be posted. Big Creek is now regularly used for picnic fly-ins and overnight camping, or for just a day of fishing in the creek; the creek does not appear in FS9 as it is not exactly huge, and within the Ultimate Terrain USA settings I have in fact turned streams off as in some cases they cross the grass or (in conjunction with the roads) left insufficient runway space. The U60 runway is at 5,743 feet ASl, 3,550 feet long, aligned 01-19, and in good condition. At the southern end there is the new replica of the old original Big Creek Lodge which was built in 1935. This burned down in 2008, and is now being rebuilt by a group of pilots, pilots having formed a large part of the early clientel courtesy of the grass strip. It is shown here as still under construction. There are also Forest Service buildings on the west side of the runway. All of this is located in the Frank Church Wilderness area and the Payette National Forest. The AI is increased at the weekends, reflecting reality, and also revised to use Boise as one of the starting places. Dixie is also reissued here with a revised positioning to fit with the roads. I had concluded that the roads were wrong, while in fact the position of the airstrip was at fault.

| Johnson Creek 3U2 Forest Service airfield in Idaho USA |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This airfield is in the mountains of Idaho, around 25 miles south of Big Creek U60, which was the second in the series to be posted. Johnson Creek is very regularly used for picnic fly-ins and overnight camping, as can be seen from the number of videos posted. Again, the creek does not appear in FS9 as it is only around 20 feet or so wide, plus within Ultimate Terrain I have streams turned off for the reasons given in the U60 post. The runway is at 4,933 feet ASL, 3,480 feet long, aligned 35-17, and in good condition. The shower facilities are south of the centre of the runway and on the eastern side; as a result planes mostly, but not all, park on the eastern side and towards the south. There are Forest Service workshop buildings on the east side of the runway near the centre. If you have a wind from the south then some AI planes will actually manage to land. I should have mentioned before that these are all made with only the default FS9 mesh, and that I will be reposting them again for use with the FSGenesis 19m mesh.

| Sulphur Creek Ranch ID74 private airfield in Idaho USA |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
This airfield is in the mountains of Idaho, around 30 miles south of Johnson Creek 3U2 which was the third in the series to be posted. Sulphur Creek Ranch is a privately owned airfield, serving the "Ranch", which translates into "restaurant-bar-lodge-and-holiday-cabins". The field is at 5,744 feet ASL, and the runway is 2,920 feet long and aligned 10-28. It is a single-ended runway, with 28 used for landing and 10 for take offs; this is down to a large chunk of mountain occupying the sky at the western end of the runway. The AI planes comply with this single runway concept and the only snag is that you cannot announce a landing as there is no runway offered for you to select for landing in the AI procedure. When taking off runway 10 is offered and you can announce take off. The land used by the ranch is mostly flat, and with a slant approach on finals and a late turn it is fairly straightforward. The largest landark is the man-made lake. Morgan Ranch 02ID is nearby and the grass area has been modified down in size as per reality. The buildings have been omitted as they are not adjacent to the runway and not visible, and I have no information on them.

| Backcountry airfields for 19m terrain mesh in Idaho USA |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
These four backcountry fields are for use with the FSGenesis 19m mesh of Idaho, and are Big Creek, Johnson Creek, Dixie, and Sulphur Creek Ranch. They have been revised to fit and almost certainly do not work without the 19m mesh; a quick comparison with Big Creek before and after demonstrates the difference. I also have Ultimate Terrain installed. The three ingredients of terrain mesh, UT main roads, and UT streams, along with their individual margins of error, very often create conficts of space that make a grass runway impossible to site with it's correct length. Given the choice of turning off roads or streams (the terrain mesh cannot be turned off, obviously) I chose streams; the roads are less obviously incorrect, plus it matters not if roads go uphill while a climbing stream is to be avoided. On that basis the original series is reissued here for use with the 19m terrain mesh, on the presumption that you have already downloaded the original series. There are no textures or AI included as they remain the same as the originals, and the new scenery bgl's replace the originals to get the runways and grass etc in the right positions. There will be follow-on fields that are new, and all of the new ones will be only for the 19m mesh.

| Backcountry airfields for 19m terrain mesh in Idaho USA series 2 |
|
Images related to this file:
File Description:
These backcountry fields are for use with the FSGenesis 19m mesh of Idaho; they almost certainly do not work without it. The six airfields are a follow-on series to the previous four, ranging from Stanley that has a village and airfield buildings of one sort or another and even a length of asphalt runway, to Bruce Meadows that has two bathrooms. The full list from northwest to southeast is Bruce Meadows U63, Garden Valley U88, Warm Springs Creek 0U1, Stanley 2U7, Graham U45, and Smiley Creek U87. These airfields compensate for the loss of airfield flattens after the removal of AF917150 and AF917160, but there remain some now-unflattened airfields I have not included here, whether for reason of the impossibility of realistically creating it (as in the case of Flying B) or just a total lack of anything interesting about it. There may be some more follow-on fields that are new, to the north of the original four; these six are all to the south. The landclass files either change forested areas, as in Bruce Meadows, or add a village, as in Stanley. Although these are stand-alone, the presumption is that you have already installed the original four for use with the FS Genesis 19m terrain mesh, and there is a correction for Big Creek where I missed spotting a lack of flatten in one area.
