  • Dornier museum with Dornier aircraft models
  • Detailed taxi and ground layout with parking positions according to current maps (March 2021)

Still from Aerosoft’s stable, Tailstrike Design released new screenshots of Václav Havel Airport Prague (LKPR).

Next comes Orbx, which announced a new partnership with Pushback Studio. This will bring Caboolture Airfield (YCAB) to Orbx Direct.

Apparently, they won’t stop until Australia is fully decked out, and you can see the result in the trailer below. The scenery is coming “soon.”

  • Custom built static aircraft
  • Recreated highway and surrounding streets

We then get not one, but two airport releases from JustSim.

Below you can find a gallery of screenshots.

Next is Riga International Airport (EVRA) in Latvia, available on SimMarket for $22 plus applicable VAT.

Recently, we published our massive interview with head of Microsoft Flight Simulator Jorg Neumann, who provided a lot of new info about the present and future of the sim. A few days ago, we also got to hear more, including a trailer for World Update 4 which will feature France and Benelux.

Proud weeb hailing from sunny (not as much as people think) Italy and long-standing gamer since the age of Mattel Intellivision and Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
