    Attempt to fix bug report XSG-16009 submitted by GregBC Feb 2025 with respect to information offered. The issue with the AI aircraft not aligned with taxiway might be a number of factors but the taxi routes are aligned as required.

    See previous version notes. Then on top of that, added enhanced ambient night lighting. Extended ground truck paths to help prevent errant behavior of trucks. Jan graciously volunteered his time to help get the wind / airport flow nailed down. It's a good day at CYVR.

    Pretty much a new airport! Spot checked the correct location of each runway start. Modified or redrew all of the taxiways and draped pavement polygons. Took the digital ruler to most of the taxiways and ground vehicle routes to make sure they are consistent throughout, match real world widths, and are arrow-straight. Almost every facade in the airport has been redrawn from scratch, and include full functional underpasses as well as several different custom LEGO-brick hangars. ATC ground flow has been completely redone, and vehicle ground flow added. There is just far too much to list here! (Resubmitted to fix runway sign incursion, incorrect VASI / Wig Wag tags, and duplicated roads)

    Modification: The wigwags on A$ and A^ were deleted and replaaced with "new" wig wags. This solved the issue of spurious VASI on 08R-26L. The why of the spurious VASi remains unknown

    I've adjusted gates and changed gate sizes to try to eliminate incursions. I cannot see the duplicate gate that is mentioned in the moderation report.

    Update to include features from 11.10 including terminal kit, new objects and ground markings. Features hand-placed taxi lights, extension to 08R still under construction, overrun areas at ends of 13/31, all taxiways textures aligned to match real-world airport, Shopping center on 26R approach. So many cars and so many lines.

    Some slight touchups to my previous upload including improvement to YVR Engine Test facility, South Terminal apron marking corrections and a jet blast shield that was oriented incorrectly. A few other missing hold lines added and taxiway centerline lines alignment corrected.
    Approved
  • 54061 – jrrogers 08/23/2017
    This is a significant update to CYVR airport. All taxiways rebuilt from scratch. Updated using August 2016 imagery except for new overrun areas under construction which are based on May 2017 images. More detailed added to parking areas around airport. Many buildings added. Airport has a significantly improved "feel" when flying in/out which I believe is due to having so much more detail.

    Trees on GA ramp removed and static aircraft on taxiway J also removed. Exclusion zone plaved at 08 to prevent forest. Road crossing west of 08 is real but controlled by Ground Control

    The most complex I have done to date. taxiway flows and ATC seem to work under varying condition. There is still extra scenery to input but, to be honest after 3 months, am tired of CYVR

    This is my 7th WED project and my most ambitious yet. This is my first attempt at a major international airport. Project done from scratch using satellite imagery from 2014. Exclusion zones were not used to eliminate road networks as they seem to work well with the placement of objects at the airport.
    Approved
  • 42140 – rsm2000e 10/17/2015
    Initially added exclusion zone around entire airport to exclude TREES, but the zone was too small and a few trees remained on the approach to 26L (in the approach lights!) Enlarged the exclusion zone to the maximum size and re-uploaded today. NO OTHER CHANGES to the 'recommended' version which was already up on the Gateway made by someone else.
    Approved
  • 42137 – rsm2000e 10/16/2015

    Fix taxiways not showing in default airport, caused by two beizers crossing over themselves. No other changes.
