About This File
FS2004 Scenery--Kitchener, Waterloo CYKF, Ontario, Canada. Kitchener is in southern Ontario, 40 miles southwest of Toronto. The population is just over half a million and the airport is on the northeastern side of the town. The main runway is aligned 08-26 and just over 7,000 feet of asphalt 150 feet wide, lit, with PAPI at both ends and approach lighting and ILS on 26.The second runway is aligned 14-32 and is 4, 100 feet long, lit and with PAPI. The airport is being steadily enlarged and improved, and adding new hangars for rent, operators, and maintenance companies. The largest and most visible presence is the training operation located just off the southwest end of taxiway A, where there are 14 Cessna 172, 2 Cessna 152, 2 Piper Seminole, and others. These are represented in the AI. There are morning and evening scheduled flights by Westjet to Calgary and American Eagle to Chicago, also in the AI. GA parking is off taxiway C; request taxi to what is named here "southwest parking" where there are spaces on both grass and asphalt. This version of CYKF includes the new (ish) terminal, the first of the new central rental hangars alongside the new taxiway and access road, and the new large and isolated hangar off taxiway C, but not the new airport services building (fire and snow clearance) that is off to the east of taxiway A, and not the new car park to the south of the airport access road. So an uncertain and perhaps historically innacurate date, but mostly accurate building textures, taxiways, taxiway lighting, and signage. By Roger Wensley.
