Back in April, we reported on the announcement of X-Codr’s Montgomery Regional Airport for X-Plane 11. We can confirm that this is a freeware product and is ready to download now from the X-Plane.org forum.
Montgomery Regional Airport is situated approximately 7 miles southwest of Montgomery, the capital of Alabama in the USA. This busy twin runway civilian and military Airport serves close to 300,000 people per year and provides an average of 200 aircraft operations per day.
The most common airlines operating out of Montgomery are Sky West, Endeavor, Envoy, PSA, and Piedmont.
Included within this package is a highly detailed rendition of the airport with detailed ground textures including ultra HD pavement textures and reflections with PBR. Impressively, the user can expect procedurally generated wear and tear which means that all vehicles will visibly make the airport look more and more used as time progresses. As this is a dynamic living airport it will add to the natural ageing of the airport. Inside the terminal building, the user can expect a detailed interior with animated passengers for increased immersion.
A lot of focus has been placed on animations and sounds around the airport. Air conditioning units, Service trucks (which service your aircraft upon request), vegetation and custom jetways are all animated. Regarding the sound environment, traffic, terminal interiors and aircraft along with other ambient airport sounds will bring the airport to life.
Weather effects and seasonal changes are also included which features summer, autumn and winter versions. Rain and snow effects are of course included and the changes take effect automatically on scenery reload with no need to change any files.
The full feature list can be found below.
