FS2004 Scenery--Peace River CYPE in northwest Alberta, Canada, update 2. This is an updated version of the original post (from 2014) made in November 2018, and replaces the first 2018 version posted in error (my error) on 23 November 2018. It provides missing textures, deals with an ai problem that I thought I had already fixed, adds extra objects to the apron area and a third gate etc. It is complete in itself and can be installed as-is if you do not have the original post. The Peace River flows east from the Rockies, joining up with the Slave River to empty into Great Slave Lake. The town is on both banks close to a bend where the Peace turns to the north, 245 miles northwest of Edmonton. The population is 7,000 and the surrounding area is either farmland or forest and used for winter sports; Peace River hosted the 2004 Alberta Winter Games. The airport is just over 3 miles west of the town. The runway is 5,000 feet of wide asphalt (150 feet) aligned 04/22, lit, and with PAPI. There is a second runway to the south of the main runway, 1,900 feet of grass and aligned 08/26. The apron is to the north of the runway at the eastern end and is large; there is a purpose-built terminal building, plus other hangar buildings along taxiway C that extends westward from the apron. The airport is getting busier with more scheduled flights and GA. The video shows buildings between aerobatics. By Roger Wensley.
