General aviation traffic with Traffic Global is supported by any airport that allows Traffic Global. This will bring X-Plane 11’s sky to a whole new level of emersion. I have tested this out, and it works very well.

You can learn more information about this update here. If you want to buy Traffic Global for X-Plane 11, you can do so at the Just Flight store for $52.99 USD.
