Released: Burning Blue Design Goodwood Aerodrome

De ontwikkelaars van Burning Blue Design hebben Goodwood Aerodrome (EGHR) uitgebracht voor Microsoft Flight Simulator. Dit vliegveld ligt in het zuiden van Engeland en is van origine bekend als RAF Westhampnet. Het is gebouwd gedurende de Tweede Wereldoorlog als uitwijk voor het nabijgelegen RAF Tangmere. Na de oorlog kwam het vliegveld in private handen en hernoemd naar Goodwood.

Vandaag de dag is het vliegveld een thuisbasis voor een vliegschool, en veel GA verkeer. Daarnaast is het terrein ook bekend door het racecircuit wat om het vliegveld heen is gebouwd. Dit is tevens het enige klassieke racecircuit (1948) wat nog in gebruik is.

De scenery is verkrijgbaar bij Orbx. Bekijk alle features hieronder.

Features:

Goodwood Aerodrome has been recreated faithfully over many hundreds of hours by Burning Blue Design’s modellers and coders with multiple on-site visits, and features:

• Over 200 custom 3D objects have been created exclusively for Goodwood Aerodrome, each with full Physical Based Rendering (PBR), allowing for far more realistic textures.
• There are tens of thousands of carefully placed stock assets, every sign, speaker, bench and tree, along with an assortment of ground workers and visitors, has been placed in the correct location ensuring an atmosphere of a working airfield.
• High resolution colour corrected ground textures taken from Bing maps and manipulated for consistency and realism which far surpasses the quality of the stock Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 ground texture.
