Aimee Sanjari Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Hello everyone, Turbulent Designs have really been on a roll lately - now we have two airports coming to OrbxDirect from the British scenery veterans: KGPI Glacier Park International Airport exclusively for P3Dv4 and MBS International Airport for FSX and all versions of P3D, nearly the entirety of which has been custom modelled! MBS International Airport MBS International Airport for FSX and P3D is the most feature rich and detailed Turbulent airport to date. The airport serves the cities of Midland, Bay City and Saginaw in Freeland County, Michigan. It’s situated 100nm north west of Detroit and approximately 200nm from both Toronto and Chicago. MBS is a great airport for a balance between commercial flying and general aviation. It’s 8000ft primary runway serves a selection of commercial aircraft in the real world, which operate out of the new passenger terminal. On the other side of the 6000ft secondary runway you can find a range of service hangers next to the general aviation and corporate jet apron. General aviation pilots can also use an isolated WWII runway, which provides a unique challenge. The passenger terminal features a fully modelled interior, accurate to real world blueprints, allowing you to walk through and explore as a passenger. As a pilot parked at one of it’s 6 gates you can look through the terminal windows and see every detail inside the building. The jetways are fully integrated with SODE, which allows command of the docking and undocking procedure. Over on the corporate jet apron is another highly detailed interior of one of the main hangers. Pilots can choose to start or end their flight from inside this hanger. A range of brand new HD service vehicles, cars and trucks have been placed around this airport. Each of these new vehicles has been meticulously developed, using on site photographs as reference. Each new vehicle has a cab interior and transparent glass, adding a new level of depth and immersion. Runways, taxiways and apron surfaces are represented with high definition textures based on real world surface photography, providing an unrivalled level of visual realism while taxiing around the airport. Dense population of RealFlora in use at MBS provides a realistic variety of grasses and ground plants across the airport, particularly delivering a very convincing feel of overgrowth at the abandoned section of the WWII runway. MBS airport sits in a rural expanse of fertile land, surrounded by farms and small holdings, this scenery perfectly recreates these visually recognizable landmarks in immense detail. Individually modelled farms with grain silos, water towers, wind generators and barns surround the airport, providing a huge amount of realism on approach and departure. Key Features: Accurate representation of MBS International Airport modelled in insane detail Bonus GA disused World War II runway for challenging approaches Fully modelled passenger terminal, accurate to real world blue prints Modelled hangar interior Custom HD service vehicles, cars and trucks Baked ambient lighting Stunning custom “Real Flora” vegetation for trees, grass and shrubs Unrivalled HD ground poly throughout the airport Airport and coverage area fully custom modelled to replace autogen Individually modelled farms, barns, wind generators, silos and water towers Orbx Flow technology Optional Dynamic Lighting for P3D v4 only MBS International Airport will be available to purchase from OrbxDirect soon for AUD $32.95 (approx.

Ripcord Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I will have the plastic funding locked and loaded. Bring it on. Really glad that these guys are bringing us some FTX Northern Rockies and Central Rockies airports in ID and MT. Loving those regions and love those short hops from old favorites like Bozeman, Yellowstone and Jackson Hole. And I guess Bonners Ferry will be pretty close to this new one, as well!

BrianV Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 These are amazing products. The level of detail that Russ put into the KMBS terminal is fantastic and yet easy on fps. It really gives a feeling of having landed there, when you can walk through the entire terminal. With ORBX flow perfection will be reached. Two outstanding Turbulent airports from Orbx.

Turbulent Designs has always been a part of the FTX team. They took a brief hiatus, but came back to where they belong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finally more lift there again. Love those places, also for the slightly longer hops to the West coast or to SLC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsand Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Wow! KGPI! It's my very favorite NRM airport! I love flying that area and the hop between Kalispell and Cranbrook is just stunning. Thank you for doing this one, I really can't wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodneyprice Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 As I already own these two from Turbulent will they be discounted ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ripcord Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Pretty sure they will just transfer them over to your ORBX account. I'd already bought Big Bear, and they made it available at no additional charge. Seamless on that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seamless on that one. +1 - I have several of TD releases and it was free to transfer the license's over to the Orbx store . John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
