Following the recent release of Cairns International Airport (YBCS) for Microsoft Flight Simulator, TaiModels has made their detailed rendition of the Australian airport available for X-Plane 12. Whilst the most detailed version of the scenery is available for X-Plane 12, a fully functional version is still available for X-Plane 11.
