After a few weeks of teasing, and previews, Terrain Studios has released its Samos Airport (LGSM) for Microsoft Flight Simulator. The Greek Island airport is known for its challenging approach and is open for seasonal operations aimed at providing European travellers a sun-drenched destination to explore. Airlines such as TUI, Condor and SAS offer frequent flights during the warmer months transporting nearly half a million passengers to the island each year.
In terms of features, the Samos Airport from Terrainy Studios comes with quality modelling and texture work, dynamic lighting and also an accurate ground layout. Furthermore, Terrainy Studios has added a range of nearby buildings, to assist with the visual approach into the airport, along with various pieces of ground service equipment to bring the airport to life.
