Updated to work with World X1 Canada. (took out my model of Rainbow bridge etc)
Niagara Falls and St. Catharines District Airport is central to an amazing area of Canada with wine tasting, helicopter tours, historic battles and of course the Falls. You'll be happy to be able to FLY UNDER the Rainbow and Lewiston Bridges (other bridges no). For best results put your road traffic to off or low. (one cannot fly under a road in MSFS)
In addition you will be delilghted, I hope, with the Maid of the Mist, and the Whirlpool Aerocar which you can also fly the under. And for Canadians who are proud of their history, we have included Brock's Monument. (Fort George and Old Fort Niagara are being considered if this one is accepted well.)
The Welland Canal and locks and the Garden City Skyway bridge are now included, and can be found just off the threshold of runway 24. The huge American bulk carrier " Paul R. Tregurtha" is an impressive sight. (still working on texturing)
There are numerous custom hangars, the tower(now FSS) and terminal building. The airport runways are pretty much as they came in the game.
This project is dedicated to the WILD ANIMALS OF THE WORLD.
The amazing wildlife photographer,ILANA BLOCK has generously contributed some of her astonishing works in hopes of garnering some attention to the beauty of nature. One hangar is dedicated to Africa another to our Winged friends. The terminal building has a nice collection too.
In lieu of coffees, please consider contributions to secure the endangered African Rhino and other precious African Animals. Please visit.

Also the Shrike Commander is in a hangar and it is appreciated.
And thank you.. Have fun flying down the gorge and under the Rainbow Bridge, past the tourists in blue raincoats on the Maid of the Mist and and then back to Brock's Monument.
The texture on the tarmac isn't that great, nor is the texture on the Genaire building. The mall signs and conference booths on the airside tarmac also seem out of place and cars aren't parked in the parking spots. Just some small tweaks would really make this pop.

Love the scenery, Would it be possible to get a alternative download to be compatible with the Niagara Falls City Pack & Heliport made by Jepperson2001 (removing Maid of the Mist, Whirlpool Aerocar and the Lewiston Bridge.) Thanks

I am thinking of redoing the entire airport when I return next fall. It can be done but it is a tricky deal to have two different versions.
Thanks for your question.

Hi MazerMart,
Excellent work...love your addons...
Just a reminder to update the version number in the 'manifest.json' as it shows in the sim and in Addons Linker and will be of primary importance in programs such as MFS AddOn Collector, for example, as developers produce auto-updating programs...
The version number here shows 9.1, but it shows 0.1.0 in the 'manifest.json'.
Thanks for all your contributions to the community...

Just a heads up, the MSFS2020 Rockwell Aero Commander 500S shows as "File disabled" and hasn't been updated since 2021. https://flightsim.to/file/15520/msfs2020-rockwell-aero-commander-500s Don't know if that's just temporary or not.
Also are all the Quebec downloads required or just some of them? Looks nice from the pics, thank you.

Thank you for your comments.. I appreciate them.
I haven't updated the photos.. So the Rockwell and others may show up, but may be discontinued in the actual file. It looked like a nice one.. too bad it is discontinued. . I'm a fan of JP Fillion and so I use his objects a lot. You will also see there are no longer any ships because I was getting comments about them being too large for the canal and even some saying container ships never goin through the Welland. (I have since discovered that they do) So now I am sure I will get comments saying what happened to the ships. lol..
This one was due to be updated to MSFS version 9 and so I did a quick update of the taxiways and runways etc but not much else. I will work on redoing the textures on some of the buildings and removing the photographs and perhaps adding ships but I guess I suck at that.

I'm a little late to this party and, overall, the mod is great. However, there's an issue. With this mod I now have six (6) additional Runways 06 at the top of the list when choosing CYSN on the world map. Then, on the ATC panel at the commencement of the flight, the six runways are at or near the bottom. If I try to choose one of those six the ATC assigns me a different runway such as 01 or 24.
On another, admittedly nick-picky note: The laker in the Welland Canal north of the Garden City Skyway is outside the channel; it would be grounded on the shallow reservoir on the east side. Could you move it to cover the flat sat-photo laker on the water?
As mentioned before the large container ship is too large for the canal. In the sixty-eight years I've lived in St. Catharines and the thirty-some-odd years battling the accursed bridges four to six times a day, I've never seen a container ship in the canal.
Small things yes and easily overlooked by most folks but, those of us who live here may notice them. Great work all around and thank you for this marvelous addition.

I appreciate the notice. I suspect that it might have something to do with the latest version updates. Non the less, this project is due for a refurbish including the corrections you mentioned plus I think I will add the two forts as well. Give me a little time and then once corrected I hope you will restore the 5 stars.
If you are open to beta testing it to make sure I'm not on a sand bar or something. PM me.

Does this scenery conflict with the other Niagara Falls add-ons out there or does it cover only the northern part of the river and the Canadian side of the falls area?

Hi .. You can run both scenery files. eg the one by Roman Design. The only change I saw was a slight duplicate Lewiston Bridge, but most of the items I created were not on his file and he had some that are not on mine.. ex the large generating stations. In fact the two bridges near Whirlpool I didn't do, so his are great.
Let me know pm if there are any more items that don't work when you load both files.
Thanks for the heads up.

Brilliant work. My new favourite area to explore. On a holiday from the UK 30 years ago I did the helicopter tour as well as the Maid of the Mist, this addon brings back many memories, thank you.
Love all the people you added, they bring the scenery to life.
3 years ago
Thank you.. It is a fun place to explore. I am looking at adding Fort George and Old Fort Niagara in the Fall.
Hope you come back once this crazy pandemic is over. :)

Very nice work. Brought back a lot of memories. I flew on a cross country into St Catharines about 27 years ago. On final there was a ship just about where you have yours. Only thing, can you scale a couple of the ships down a bit? Not sure they would fit in the lock gates at that size. But otherwise, a great Ontario addon.
3 years ago
Thanks.. I could scale them down a bit.. however they are pretty close as I took the dimensions off the specs.. Perhaps you are referring to the container ship. That one I didn't create so it may be a bit large.
Thanks. always looking for ways to improve.

Very impressive, kudos. I especially like the mist effect you added to the Canadian side of the falls and the many details. Delightful airport, so very lived in!
Is there any chance you could put the scenery in a separate file from the airport? Your bridges conflict with the another scenery pack that provides Niagra, NY. I hate to miss out on the cable car and boats, but at least then I'd have the wonderful airport. Thanks!
3 years ago
Thank you.. however I can't take credit for the mist.. I think it happened on the last North American update. but there is an animation available for waterfalls. I was tempted to do it. However the downside is always slowing the game down too much. It is why some of the models were low-poly.
