First Class Upgrade From Just Flight! - Features & Screens

by Thomas on July 5, 2002 @ 5:42 p.m. PDT

Just Flight and Simflyers have teamed up to launch World Airports, a fantastic boxed edition of their acclaimed scenery upgrade for Flight Simulator 2000 and 2002. "Suspicious-looking shoes must be removed before downloading these screens," says Mungo, sensibly. Features and 26 screens below!

For long time the USA – one of the world's busiest air traffic regions – have been widely neglected by scenery designers. Now developers, SimFlyers have taken up the task and are providing us with nine of the most detailed sceneries for FS 2000 & 2002 ever, featuring 6 of the biggest and busiest airports in the US and worldwide, plus 3 popular European destinations.

Atlanta * Bari * Dallas Fort Worth * Los Angeles * Manchester * Newark * Orlando * Rome * Philadelphia

As one leading simulation website commented, “Once again there is little doubt that SimFlyers has raised the bar another notch on the scenery standard… The fun never stops… there is always something to look at or interact with.”

This scenery upgrade features realistic depictions of the airports, numerous static and dynamic objects together with some unique dynamic features such as SimFlyers critically acclaimed jetDock and serviceArmada systems. Plus there’s much more to explore and discover in the included driveable ‘Follow Me’ vehicle with its own driver’s panel!

The developers, SimFlyers, are supporting existing owners of this scenery by launching a "bonus offer" for their registered customers buying this package. Simflyers's users should check www.simflyers.net for details.

The package comes with a great printed manual with flight plans for flying between the airports, airports maps and approach charts. It's shipping right now with a suggested retail price of £24.99/€39.95/$34.99. See www.justflight.com for full details and screenshots!
