Description
Welcome to the Lighthouses for BC, (British Columbia), Canada, scenery project by Return to Misty Moorings (RTMM).
For the most part, lighthouses are not modelled in the default MSFS simulator; hence this project was undertaken by designers at Return to Misty Moorings (RTMM) to create and populate the missing lighthouses for BC for this simulator. The BC lighthouses, their latitude/longitude locations were confirmed and add-on scenery was created as best as possible according to the appearance of the real lighthouse at that location.
Each lighthouse has also been assigned a unique ICAO for our flight simulation purposes. They are all recognized as identifiable airport locations in the MSFS simulator, in associated mapping applications such as LittleNavMap or Plan G, as well as are defined and identifiable in RTMM’s Misty Flying Club Virtual Airline.
With the creation of the lighthouses and induction into the sim and mapping programs, alike sea plane bases, a refreshed avenue of bush flying with water moorings is introduced into this sim.
The flightplan for this BC lighthouse trip visits 49 lighthouse locations in BC. The trip is 1251 nautical miles (1439.6 miles), (2316.8 km), so it might take a few outings to travel to all of the lighthouses in this trip but again, each lighthouse has an identifiable ICAO so easy to pickup where you left off.
PS: All of these newly created non-fictional lighthouses have water moorings so bring an amphibian. For helicopter pilots out there, most of these lighthouses have helipads or spots to set down close to the lighthouses.
This download consists of the lighthouse flightplan and map. The flight departs from Victoria International Airport (CYYJ). Victoria is the capital city of British Columbia so it is fitting that we start and eventually end this forty-nine BC lighthouse journey from this location. On departure CYYJ from the onset, as reflected in the included flight plan and map, we travel in a counter clockwise direction visiting each of the lighthouses and will eventually cover all of them before returning to Victoria International.
The actual scenery piece for the Lighthouses for BC by RTMM and documentation, the supporting RTMM object libraries that are required, and gammit of other scenery downloads such as SPB, Cabins, Dockages, Lodges as well as liveries, ai boats, a full forum etc, (All of it freeware), can be found on the RTMM Site:
The purpose of the RTMM site is to offer FREEWARE to flight simmers giving them a wide variety of scenery locations throughout the Alaska/Western Canada land area to explore.
This is Bush flying at it’s best.
