World Update Canada

Canada is the 2nd biggest country in the world by land mass! Maybe Asobo and Microsoft are scared to tackle it? Ha!

Me I just hope for the next major update they will get the right evelation becuase if you want to flight in IFR in Canada you risk to go right inside some hill that even not existe because of the bab evelation of the land. I just hope they will do something because i will go back with x-plane 11 and soon 12. Because no evelation problem with x-plane for canada in my area

its already in the game

Vieux-Québec is well detailed

Rocher Percé should be done though IMO

It was disappointing to discover such an iconic landmark as Rocher PercĂ© is just land sticking out into the water. I’m from that area, so this really stood out to be as being an omission. The data for the entire GaspĂ©sie area is really bad, and there are still terrain spikes and elevation glitches all over the southern coastal areas of the peninsula that were never fixed since launch.

There’s a mod for Rocher PercĂ© on flightsim.to, but it’s rather poor quality IMHO. Better than nothing, but far from great.

I’m sure you already know the website, but at least the ariports were made better

YGP and TG3 are still shorter in game then IRL though.
Wonder if someday they will reflect their new lenght

Indeed. I’ve got quite a few of the mods from that site already. They may be FSX ports, but they’re better and more realistic than autogen.

YAY!

Next WU is Canada! :partying_face:

Just FYI, there are no active runways at Shearwater.
(I live less than a km from it)

As you can see from your pic, what remains of the last runway is closed, and has large "X"s marked all over it, indicating just that!

The ILS/localizers in CFB Trenton are aligned with the taxiway instead of the runway. I hope Canada World Update fixes this.

That is false they landed a challenger there for the museum a few months ago they can still add it with helicopters coming

It is still a active airforce base and with helicopters coming they should add it

Yes, with special permission it was landed on the Heliport taxiway in February 2021, and was only done with excellent landing conditions.
The runways are, and have been closed, since at least 2008.
I do agree that for helicopters, the base should be added though.
