is there an internet site equivalent to the NACO where one can down load
approach plates and airfield details for Canada especially for lower
Ontario?

Too bad. Last year I was able to download them. Something must have
changed.

The only place you could download Canadian approach charts was from the
nga.mil site, which didn't have actual Canadian charts, but ones made by
the US military for (a few) Canadian airports.

You want to buy real Canadian Approach charts? If you just want one or
two, you should probably just buy them from Sportys. If you're going to
be flying to Canada regularly, you can subscribe to them from NavCanada.
I get a year's worth of CFS (Canada Flight Supplement - like an A/FD for
the whole country), CAP-4 (Canadian Approach Plates for Ontario), and
LO-11/12 (Low Altitude Enroute for Ontario) for just a hair over $200 a
year (which is less than half of what they'd cost from Sportys), and
they're all delivered promptly just before the old ones expire.

I've never understood why women douse themselves with things that are alleged
to smell of roses/tulips/freesias. What exactly are they trying to attract?

I don't think they were ever freely available. The cheapest place to get
them is http://www.vippilot.com/. Sportys sells them too, but they are more
expensive.
