Mirabel - CYMX Airport for FSX (and Prepar3D v4.x)

[lagaffe]

Montréal–Mirabel International Airport (IATA: YMX, ICAO: CYMX), originally called Montréal International Airport and widely known as Mirabel, is a cargo and former international passenger airport in Mirabel, Quebec, Canada, 21 nautical miles (39 km; 24 mi) northwest of Montreal. It opened on October 4, 1975, and the last commercial passenger flight took off on October 31, 2004.

The main role of the airport today is cargo flights, but it is also home to MEDEVAC and general aviation flights, and is a manufacturing base for Bombardier Aerospace, where final assembly of regional jet (CRJ700, CRJ900 and CRJ1000) aircraft and the Airbus A220 (formerly Bombardier CSeries) is conducted. The former passenger terminal apron is now a racing course, and the terminal building was demolished in 2016.

This scene was created in collaboration between Quebec FSX and French-VFR.

The scene includes:
- two airports: CYMX and CSW5 (Montreal Bell Heliport)
- one photo texture for summer/fall and one for winter
- daylight illumination with the most beautiful effect
- all hangars and the ICAR circuit modelled entirely
- roadways congested with vehicles (do not push this slider too high)
- a configurator to manage the BGLs specific to FSX and Prepar3D as well as some scenic details
- a set of screenshots for the recommended settings on each simulator: FSX and P3D v4.x
- the abnegation of 3 people who have struggled for a year and a half to revive this airport

We have planned a updated version in the next months but we need a break after 1,5 year of work
