Released back in May for FSX & P3D, the oldest continuously operating airport in the Pacific Northwest is Bill Womack’s sixth Orbx airport and is now available for simmers on the X-Plane platform.
Pearson Field is a popular GA field on the banks of the Columbia River, and Bill has covered 12 square miles surrounding this with photo-real ground textures. Included in the coverage area is Hayden Island, Oregon and downtown Vancouver, Washington, the latter of which is modelled with an incredible amount of detail based on hundreds of reference photos that were made available, while paying extra special attention to the scenery under the approach path. Within KVUO itself, Bill has made use of X-Plane’s PBR materials and scattered static aircraft throughout. In doing this, these models have all been optimised with performance in mind.
KVUO Pearson Field is available now from Orbx for AUD $32.95. For more information on Pearson Field, and to see more of the beautiful screenshots, head to the product page on the Orbx website.
