A new volume of Aerosoft’s Antarctica scenery packs has been released for Microsoft Flight Simulator. Aerosoft Antarctica Vol. 2 – Australian Casey and Skiways focuses mostly on Wilkins Aerodrome Skiway, whilst covering plenty of the area surrounding it with intricate details and things to see.
In the pack, you can discover Wilkins Aerodrome Skiway, where plenty of international and continental operations take place, all whilst witnessing the details included by the developer. There are animals, vehicles, boats, and people all across the pack, giving you plenty of things to see. Furthermore, you will be able to discover the animated icebergs around the base, hear the sounds of the animals and vehicles, and also witness the updated bodies of water in the area.
Aerosoft and LimeSim has worked to ensure that the product remains performance-friendly, and also overcoming some of the sim’s limitations ensuring that the Skiway is more detailed than most other airport add-ons created for Microsoft Flight Simulator. The landscape and surrounding terrain blend seamlessly as well.
You can buy Aerosoft Antarctica Vol. 2 from Aerosoft’s site for $14.99 (excluding taxes).
