After first teasing a new project two days ago, Terrainy Studios have today released a new scenery for Microsoft Flight Simulator. While it was mentioned in the original Facebook post, that the airport that the developers were teasing is in Greece, it was not specified any closer.
Covering the Ikaria National Airport (LGIK), a small airport located on the island of Ikaria in the North Aegean Sea, the scenery features accurate runway slope, up to 8K textures using PBR, custom mesh, or custom animations, for example.
In addition to what was previously mentioned, custom landmarks around the island are present in the scenery as well. This includes ports of Agios Kyrikos, Evdilos and Agios Kyrikas Marina, for example.
Furthermore, not to forget, custom hand-placed vegetation and the main road network are present in the scenery together with custom 3D lighting also. The airport surroundings were made in cooperation with locals to achieve as realistic environment as possible.
The scenery can be purchased through the Orbx services for approximately €10.52.
Ikaria National Airport (LGIK), a small airport located on the island of Ikaria in the North Aegean Sea, does not see much passenger traffic rather than just a few flights to Athens, Lemnos and Thesaloniki. The airport sees annually about 40 thousand passengers.
