We’re talking about Newcastle International Airport (EGNT), one of the busiest airports in the UK (the 11th busiest to be precise) and a definitely interesting proposition while we wait for the next free World Update which will improve the whole country.

The scenery certainly looks great, and can be found on Orbx’s own shop for $18.37.

You can enjoy a few screenshots below to see what it looks like, alongside an official list of features.

  • Faithful recreation of Newcastle International Airport
  • Detailed PBR texturing
  • Ultra-high quality modelling work throughout
  • Stunning 3D modelling
  • Custom ortho
  • Highly detailed GSE and static aircraft

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.
