Today third-party developers revealed news about upcoming Microsoft Flight Simulator add-ons and released a couple of interesting ones. 

We start with Aerosoft, which provided new screenshots of its rendition of Oslo Gardermoen Airport (ENGM) serving the capital of Norway. 

This airport is being worked on by Jo Erlend Sund, one of the most talented developers in the field. I'm fairly sure just by looking at the screenshots below you'll understand what I mean. 

Next, Just Flight provided a new video of its upcoming FS Traffic AI add-on. This time around, we get to take a look at the basics of how the system works. 

Moving on to releases, V1 Studio launched its Barra do Garças Airport (SBBW) in Brazil. It's a smaller regional airport in the middle of the country that gets a few scheduled flights operated be Azul.

It's currently available on Simmarket for $8.14 plus applicable VAT. Here's what you get in the add-on.

  • Hand-made ground textures with high definition
  • True-to-life airport landside recreation with custom ground decals, signposts, vegetation and more.
  • Accurately modeled and positioned dynamic airport lighting
  • Highly detailed models of all airport buildings
  • Custom made vegetation

You can also take a look at a trailer.

Another scenery add-on comes from Kumari Scenery Development, and it's a package of city landmarks and helipads for Kathmandu, the capital city of Nepal. If you want your flights to Lukla to be more scenic at the departure, this may just be for you.

You can purchase it on Simmarket for $9.96 plus applicable VAT, including the following.
