Flightbeam Releases San Francisco Captain’s Edition for MSFS

After the longest time, Flightbeam has released its highly anticipated San Francisco Captain’s Edition for Microsoft Flight Simulator. The new release from Flightbeam recreates the Californian airport to the highest level of detail, following years of meticulous work from Mir at Flightbeam.

San Francisco Airport (KSFO) is one of the US’ biggest and busiest airports, serving as the main airport in the Bay City. You can fly to various parts of Europe, Asia and right across the US from San Fran, giving you plenty of choice of routes from this iconic airport. This will be a great airport to accompany your Boeing 777 from PMDG once that is released later this month.

In terms of features, Mir at Flightbeam has gone the length with this release. Expect to see highly detailed 4K texturing throughout, with multi-layered, realistic hand-painted decals across the entire airport area. Detailed interior modelling was gone based on in-person scans, whilst the dense amount of custom tarmac clutter will give your simulator plenty of life. Despite the details, Flightbeam has used “state-of-the-art” optimisation techniques to give you the best possible performance.

Expect to also see custom coastline photogrammetry, GSX profiles, and the SFO Airtrain animated.

You can watch a fan trailer made by AviationLads here.

You can get your copy from Flightbeam’s store for £16.00. Alternatively, you can get your copy from Contrail.
