iniBuilds took to their Discord server earlier today to announce the release of their rendition of Nairobi-Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (HKJK) for Microsoft Flight Simulator. The scenery was teased by the team a couple of weeks ago and a trailer showcasing the product was released just last week.
About Nairobi-Jomo Kenyatta Intl
Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (HKJK) is an international airport serving the city of Nairobi, the capital and largest city of Kenya. Kenya also has three other important international airports including Kisumu International Airport, Moi International, and Eldoret International Airport. HKJK is located in the Embakasi suburb which is 18 kilometers southeast of Nairobi’s business district.
The airport is served by a plethora of airlines such as Air France, Air India, British Airways, Emirates, IndiGo, Qatar Airways, and Turkish Airlines. It has scheduled services to more than 50 destinations around the world. Originally named Embakasi Airport, the airport name was changed in 1978 to honor Kenya’s first President and Prime Minister, Jomo Kenyatta.
Key features
iniBuilds’ latest product for MSFS is a highly detailed recreation of the iconic East African airport with hand-made ground textures, true-to-life landside recreation, and accurately modeled and positioned dynamic airport lighting. iniBuilds’ Nairobi-Jomo Kenyatta features also include highly detailed models of all airport buildings, objects and surroundings, up-to-date airport layout reflecting the current layout, and LOD optimization for every model to accomplish the best possible performance in-sim.
Furthermore, the developers have used the latest MSFS SDK features to allow for the best optimization, custom static aircraft throughout the airport, and bespoke taxiway signage as it is in the real world. The developer has also included an official GSX Pro profile in the scenery folder for seamless integration of the third-party addon.
