Jack Sawyer Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 P3D Orbx's new olcAfrica I love the new Africa but have been spoiled by Orbx's airports, here in Africa the vanilla airports are are dull. I made a flight from FACT, Cape Town to FAUP, Upington Intl in the NGXu with Ethiopian colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stillwater Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Amazing view of Cape Town, Jack. And interesting to see the changes of the landscape... I agree to your statement regarding the default airports. They would basically be of the 2006 FSX status, and taking care for the Microsoft way to see the importance of the parts of the world. Well, Australia once was the same, and there came a company that changed this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dario Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Amazing shots, Jack! This mega scenery is really worth exploring. But I agree with you, airports are super basic, unfortunately. Is this an NGXu? If so, how do you add liveries not available in the PMDG Operations center? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerTigerM Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Nice set Jack. So far I have been unable to find payware or freeware airports of Orbx standard - there could be a market there. TTM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
