This time around, Orbx announced Key West International Airport (KEYW), which will enrich the already rather detailed Florida.

It’ll come “very soon” and below you can check out an official description of what you can expect and plenty of screenshots.

“Located between Cuba and Miami, Key West is situated on an island that is only 8-square miles, and only has a 5,076-foot runway to get your aircraft up in the air, which also means weight restrictions. 

Sparing no details, we have included all buildings, hotels, and major landmarks surrounding the airport. Also included are smaller details such as custom ground vehicles, and the infamous AN-2 Cuban airliner that was hijacked and landed at Key West, becoming a permanent resident of the airport.”

  • Detailed 3D buildings.
  • PBR materials through
  • Realistic night lighting
  • Custom GSE, vehicles and ground clutter
  • A number of POIs in the immediate area

Next comes a bunch of screenshots of Luxembourg Airport (ELLX), with the announcement from JustSim that it’ll be released tonight or tomorrow morning.

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. Yesterday we also received lots of new details about upcoming content including two new aircraft and a world update focused on Nordic countries.

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.
