Canadian Regional Airports

Featured Replies

Hi Nico

I've been flying in Ontario, Canada in the last 2 days and many airports aren't recognize by PSXT.

I can't see any traffic on those airports, maybe not in your database ?

Does RT covers that area ?

Canada is empty apart from main airports and busy corridors.

The airports are recognized but do they have adequate surveillance coverage for Real traffic is the big question. Very common for smaller rural regional airports to not have great coverage even for ATC.

SimAddOns has a large collection of great Canadian airports available from coast to coast and up into the high arctic.

Coverage is huge but also a big factor is that at most smaller regional airports the aircraft don't turn on their transponder until either entering the runway or once airborne when departing and on arrival it gets turned off as as they exit the runway.

Hi

I was told RT don't cover most of Canada. 

So Nothing can be done here on PSXT.

The intersting part is there is a lot of data online in Canada for rural airports.

I did check and made rural flightplans.

But yes, some flights aren't cover in total and some airports there is no landing or departure data.

Now if an airplane touch the ground and desapear during taxi, is not a major issue. That airplane can be seen in the gates or ramp.

Same as in WSSS airport. No taxi because no transponder and gates are full.

My solutions for rural traffic in Canada was bgl with FSHud.
