This add-on brings Bavaria's second largest international airport in an incomparably authentic and lively atmosphere to X-Plane.

Over a development period of around 2.5 years, the two  designers Volker Wegner and Lars Pinkenburg have rebuilt all the  buildings and facilities of the real airport based on more than 1,000  photos taken on site with great attention to detail for the simulator.  The airport environment was also modelled with great attention to detail  and covers a total area of ​​around 55 km�, with numerous  characteristic buildings, traffic routes and terrain features, so that  the depiction is extremely close to reality even during the approach and  departure phases.

A special highlight of the scenery are the innumerable  vehicle animations, which contribute significantly to the realistic  atmosphere at the airport. A lot of work was also put into the lifelike  depiction of the taxiway and apron surfaces.

The scenery addon has been implemented using state-of-the-art  X-Plane conversion techniques which, despite the high model and texture  complexity, enable a smooth framerate on current simulator PC hardware.
