Ed Correia, Orbx Head of Operations, has today announced via the Orbx Forums a rendition of Caernarfon Airport for X-Plane 11. When released, the scenery will feature, for example, 2cm/px ground textures for the airport area, accurately placed buildings or surrounding POIs together with Orbx GB TrueEarth Central compatibility. There is a complete feature list below the screenshots in the post.
