Chippewa Valley Regional Airport
This airport in Wisconsin is located in Eau Claire, and has two runways, 4-22 at 8100ft x 150ft and 14-32 at 5000ft x 100ft.
It is currently served by Sun Country Airlines, with flights to Minneapolis St Paul Intl, Minnesota and Orlando, Florida.
At different times of the year, they also fly to Las Vegas and Fort Myers. Monday and Friday are the busy days, with an arrival from Orlando, which then goes on to Minneapolis, turns around and comes back before returning to Orlando. Wednesday receives one arrival from MSP which overnights at airport before returning.
Hawthorne Aviation operate a substantial FBO, and there is plenty of hangar space on the field.
This Scenery
I rely 100% on posted material to determine the dimensions and materials used on the buildings and signage within the airport. However, whilst Google Earth has two dimensional imagery available right up to 2023, 3D images are not available past 2021. Unfortunately, nobody seems to have posted any photos showing the new firestation at the north end, so I have been unable to model any detail into this end.
Google Earth aerial photos make the hangars seem dark blue, whereas Street View makes the same hangars a very light color. I hope the taxiway signs are correct, but I haven’t seen them all, so guesswork is involved.
Version 0.2 is the first release, and I hope to see feedback from anyone who has first hand experience of this airport, and can help me correct or add missing features.
Version 0.3
This version adds the Wisconsin Army National Guard facility and a row of hangars, plus, the approach information that I inadvertently missed out on the previous version.
Installation
