Jacques-de-Lesseps Park - CYUL (Montreal)
Jacques-de-Lesseps Park is located on the west southern edge of Montreal International Airport between the Runways 06R and 24L.
It is not only one of the favorite and famous spots for plane spotters in Montreal, but a nice little park in the middle of a wide industrial area, where families bring their children to enjoy the takeoffs and landings at CYUL.
This is a very true to life representation of the park down to the little details while trying to keep performance in mind.
The addon was inspired from the freeware CYUL scenery available here on flightsim.to and recommanded to go with this addon.
Required:
- Dave's 3D People Library: https://flightsim.to/file/5452/dave-s-3d-people-library
Highly Recommanded
- CYUL Freeware Scenery: https://flightsim.to/file/1691/cyul-montreal

Scenery Limitations
- The grass in the real park is trimmed. In MSFS there is no way to reduce the grass height.
- I could not add fences around the park or between the park and the airport area. For some reason, the new vector placement tool that was added in MSFS Dev Mode (SU9) to help us place fence objects along a vector we trace, can only be used if the scenery is an airport.
- There is a small hill on the western side of the Park. Although I created this elevation in MSFS Dev Mode, a bug or glitch in SU9 or something else is not making this elevation works. I contacted the SDK support about this and it could be fixed in upcoming updates.
Installation
Simply drop the "Jacques-de-Lesseps Park CYUL" folder in your community folder (or if you use AddonLinker, place it in your favorite folder and link it...)
IMPORTANT
This is a 100% freeware addon. You must not include this addon or any part of it in commercial addons.
You must not decompile the BGL or the 3D model and modify it to distribute it without my written approval.
If you wish to use this landmark / model in a freeware scenery, feel free to contact me through flightsim.to.

There is one here on flightsim.to that is pretty good and detailed for a freeware scenery... You can see the Air Canada facility from the scenery in the background of my screenshots...
But I hope Flight Tampa will bring an updated version of their FSX CYUL to MSFS.
