Developer Kjetil, better known by their social handle WombiiActual, took to their Instagram page to announce the release of their rendition of Svolvaer Airport (ENSH) for Microsoft Flight Simulator. The product is their first-ever payware addon for the platform. Wombii has previously made various other airport sceneries for MSFS2020 such as Bergen, Stavanger, and Haugesund among other libraries and miscellaneous products.
About Svolvaer Airport
Svolvaer Airport (Svolvær lufthavn) is a regional airport serving the town of Svolvær in Vågan Municipality in Nordland county, Norway. The airport is operated by the company Avinor and served by the airline Widerøe using Dash 8 Q400 aircraft connecting the community to Bodø and other Nordland communities. Svolvær also has direct but seasonal flights to the Norwegian capital, Oslo. The airport is located six kilometers east of the town of Helle. There are bus services to the airport but taxis are available. The runway is also quite short at just 3,104 feet.
Key Features
Wombii’s Svolvaer Airport comes with custom-made 3D models with PBR textures and a modeled terminal interior, custom PLASI slope guidance lights, an updated airport layout with custom apron markings, and terraforming around the airport including the correct runway slope. Further features also include an offset localizer, custom runway and approach light setup, accurate 3D models for custom runway, approach and taxi lights, and custom windsocks. The developer has also added a runway sweeper that can be activated by tuning NAV2 radios to 115.0 and flashing and sequenced approach/circling lights that can be activated by tuning NAV2 radios to 111.0.
Closing Notes
Wombii’s Svolvaer Airport rendition for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 can only be purchased via the in-sim Marketplace. It retails for USD 9.99. The developer also aims to ensure compatibility with MSFS2024 once the new simulator has been released.
