orbx EGPB Sumburgh Airport - The first TrueEarth GB North Airport!

[Ivana Fly 581]

Hi everyone,

 

EGPB Sumburgh Airport is the first ever airport for X-Plane 11 designed to integrate with TrueEarth GB North and it's coming soon to OrbxDirect!

 

 

EGPB features realistic night lighting, highly detailed airport modelling, and a large coverage area of photoreal scenery.  Sumburgh Airport is the main airport serving Shetland in Scotland and is located on the southern tip of the mainland. The airport features a helicopter runway and the western end of RWY09 crosses the main road between Sumburgh and the northern mainland, with access controlled in real life by a level crossing with barriers closing whenever a flight is taking off or landing. 

 

Key Features

• Large 30 cm photoreal coverage
• Includes the stunning "Fitful Head"
• Fully custom modelled airport
• Detailed models of surrounding landmarks
• High Definition ground polygon
• Complex car animations in 3D
• Realistic rendition of light sources on all 3D objects
• Superb airport night lighting
• Fully integrated with TrueEarth GB North

 

EGPB will soon be available to purchase from OrbxDirect for AUD $32.95 (approx. USD $23.40 / €20.65 / £18.15).  Remember that if you own EGPB for FSX/P3D, you get 40% off the X-Plane version!

 

Please note that you will require Orbx Libraries updated and installed to version 1.55 which is also now available. MacOS/Linux users will have the latest libraries included in the cross-platform download available from the support page.

 

Please also note that for the best experience, we recommend using EGPB in conjunction with TrueEarth Great Britain North. The scenery will work without it, however some users may experience the following:

• Missing or misplaced forests
• Missing or misplaced buildings surrounding the airport
• Photoreal blending

 

Here are some screenshots from James Eden, Filou, and Jon Murchison - enjoy!
