  • High Resolution texturing and 10²km of high resolution aerial imagery.
  • Biome enhancements to recreate the environment to match the look and feel of real life
  • Compatible with the ORBX NZ Mesh Addon

Below you can see a trailer that also showcases NZA Simulations’ upcoming payware Christchurch Airport (NZCH), also in New Zealand.

Next comes Orbx and we stay down under with an in-depth look at the long-teased Essendon Fields Airport (YMEN) near Melbourne in Australia.

The airport will be released this weekend. Interestingly, it includes Orbx’s own offices, which are modeled within the terminal.

Last, but not least, Drzewiecki Design provided another look at the modeling in progress for Chicago Midway International Airport (KMDW) in the United States.

Recently, we published our massive interview with head of Microsoft Flight Simulator Jorg Neumann, focusing on the Xbox version and short and long-term plans for the sim (on both platforms).

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.
