Orbx, a well-known development studio on the flight simulation scene, has today taken to their Facebook Page to announce the development of Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport (LIEO) for Microsoft Flight Simulator.
Along with the Facebook post, a post has been made on the Orbx Forums. The scenery is going to use the latest SDK updates and should feature full PBR implementation, custom aerial imagery, dynamic taxiway lighting, or coverage of not only the airport but the city as well.
Furthermore, it will be the first scenery by Orbx to feature an integration of completely customized animated jetways. Easter eggs will also be present at the scenery. We should not expect the same easter eggs as the Prepar3D variant of the scenery featured.
A complete airport & city package, Olbia Costa Smeralda is at an advanced stage of development, with more information and screenshots to be rolled out during the coming week.
The scenery is now in advanced stage of development. The scenery is being ported over from Prepar3D with improvements being made. More information and screenshots should come public in the upcoming week. There is no release date or price set.
Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport (LIEO) is an international airport serving the city of Olbia in the norther part of Sardinia. Serving almost three million passengers annually, the airport is operating mainly seasonal routes throughout Europe. Airlines such as Enter Air, British Airways, Alitalia, or easyJet operate from, and to, the airport.
