USD $18.02
Victoria International Airport is the 11th busiest airport in Canada with almost 2.0 million passengers per year. YYJ was rated one of the top ten most-loved airports in the world by CNN Travel and is the 2012, 2014 and 2020 winner of Best Regional Airport in North America. It’s located in a breathtakingly beautiful natural area covered by photogrammetry, assuring one of the best approaches and departures available. YYJ is connecting Victoria with many Canadian and international destinations, providing an opportunity for many realistic short and long flights: Vancouver YVR, Seattle SEA, Toronto YYZ, Montreal YUL, Calgary YYC, Edmonton YEG, Winnipeg YWG, Saskatoon YXE, Kitchener/Waterloo YKF, and several smaller cities in British Columbia and Yukon.
Roman Design CYYJ scenery features a beautiful terminal with interior modelling, as well as open hangars with interior modelling and parking spots, suitable for both airliner and GA operations. Runways are sloped true to life and have custom pavement and hand-painted Canadian striped markings. All models are meticulously hand-crafted based on exclusive internal sources. Custom PBR materials and detailed modelling are used throughout the area. Several static aircraft are included, and plenty of real-life and dynamically populated parking sports are there for you. The scenery includes a functional Victoria Airport Water Aerodrome seaplane terminal.
Meticulous 3D modelling and innovative features let you start your flight not only at a beautifully detailed International terminal with interior modelling, but also in any of the 6 open hangars in business aviation, GA and military areas. Victoria Flying Club was lovingly modelled fo GA fans. Many immersion-enhancing buildings and features in the area were recreated – such as the BC Aviation Museum, highway signs and advertising billboards, streetlights and much more.
Over 50 buildings were handcrafted, along with a multitude of objects and highly accurate ground markings and night lighting, to create a hyper-realistic experience for serious Flight Simulator enthusiasts. Hundreds of objects were placed throughout the airport for a realistic busy airport feel.

Great scenery!
I had an initial problem with discrepancy between ramp and taxiway elevation. Made for some fascinating visuals and unusual approach (full throttle 😉 to making it up the “ramp”.
I knew this was bound to be my problem and Roman was responsive and helpful. Suggested I had turned off photogrammetry. Indeed, turning it on did the trick.
Roman’s CYYJ is spectacular. I kinda love flying out of his hangars. Keeps me out of the rain.
Thanks Roman. Worth every penny.
Very detailed and up to date version of the Victoria International Airport. Highly recommend.
Good scenery, however, taxiway lines end at W instead of continuing to the end of E at RWY27. Terrain bumps in taxiways (big bump still present on version 1.3.1 on the S and E intersection.
I love the YYJ airport being that I work there my problem with this airport addon is that the water bombers in the aircraft stand next to the terminal from working at the airport there would never be a water bomber in those stands they usually stay empty or when a plane breaks they will go to the stands but any water bomber in victoria would go to the Viking hanger. it would be like if you had a AN 225 at a passenger gate it would never happen and it would take away from the realism
