Nanaimo Airport is located 7 nautical miles south southeast of the city of Nanaimo , British Columbia , Canada .
All the buildings are custombuild models .
Thanks Ken Peters For some of the photos of the airport he's used to build the airport for FS9 and FSX .
For installation , just unrar , copy and paste the CYCD-Nanaimo airport folder into community folder where MSFS 2020 is installed .
Hope you enjoy the scenery as I do .

A couple of real world updates for you though…. Arbutus RV repair center at the south end of the airport is no longer there. And the flying school has recently closed. 😞

But why aren't the the five flashing-red beacons that guide the way on a night approach to Rwy 34 not included?

Hi, any chance you could make this a star airport on the World Map? It's just one checkbox in the airport properties in the editor.

Great scenery, thanks very much,
would it be possible to adjust the runway/taxiway lighting.
Runway have no touch down zone lights and no centreline lighting.
Runway16 SSALS only
Runway 34 REIL only
Taxiway have to centreline lights.
Also would be great if you do fix the gate for AIG / FSTL

This airport is awesome! Any possibility of also including Nanaimo harbour airport and water runway, where the Harbour Air seaplanes take off and land at?

You have created a beautiful addition to our sim. Thank you very much.
Most of our pilots that fly to Nanaimo would also fly into Victoria - CYYJ. That airport really needs some serious TLC! Please consider Victoria as a future project.

Roman Design is working on CYYJ, albeit, it will be a payware airport. But Roman Design's work is top notch, he did Ottawa International Airport, Toronto Buttonville Municipal Airport, and more payware Canadian airports for MSFS.
If you live in Victoria, Roman Design is looking for some photos to do CYYJ and also the seaplane terminals/docks in Victoria. Feel free to help him out. You can see his post at https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/621165-what-canadian-airport-should-i-do-next/?do=findComment&comment=4805553 (you can make an Avsim account and contact him).
