THIS PROJECT IS WIP
CNU8 is a small private airport northeast of Toronto, just slightly south of stouffville. This small airport is used for private aircraft and gliding sessions for Air Cadet squadrons in the GTA area. As an Air Cadet (from 883) myself, I felt dissatisfied to see such a sad looking default airport. So with the use of google maps, some sketchy images and my fish-like memory, I stitched up a scenery enchancement of this airport.
To run this scenery at its fullest potential (not necessary), please download Mikeaat's AssetPack
Changes:
- Revamped the buildings and hangars near the apron
- Added static aircraft and containers on the grass fields
- Added a parking area with cars
- Added a light to illuminate the apron at night
- Added some small miscellaneous objects
As this is my first scenery ever made, there are some issues:
- There are two parking spots, one of which is in the parking lot, do not use
- The default fueling station could not be removed, hopefully I manage a way to in the future
- There is an inoperative airport beacon light. The one in the default scenery is still there, placed on the northern part of the airport which is incorrect
- The street lamps are inoperative
- The buildings in the far west side of the airport have not been changed
- No buildings and static aircraft are true-to-life as I have yet to understand blender and other 3d software. I used in-game assets from the simulator instead. There are also barely any clear reference photos.
Excellent scenery and seems to be very accurate. I did most of multi engine rating out of there in a Piper Seminole but that was over thirty years ago and I do remember the retired military aircraft and having to be careful around the wings of the CF-104.

I knew right away that the business jets were stand-ins for the abandoned military jets (CF104? Sabre?) that reside there ... but until you can find those models I'd agree that smaller substitutions might be in order. Nice try at authenticity though!

not bad but I have a suggestion. I used to keep my plane here. Please replace all those jets with small GA, nothing bigger than a 172. That runway is only 2012 ft. not long enough for any jet. I don't even remember ever seeing any twins there.

Thx for the feedback, I'll defo make that quick change. Those jets were there to replace these scrapped RCAF jets I saw there as I couldn't find any on the SDK. But I'll definitely replace those twins with a single piston :D

I used to drive by here everyday on my route, at my old job.
I have a new job and now drive by Buttonville Airport! Small world eh...?
Thank-You! 😀
