Johannesburg International Airport was established in 1952 and named after Field Marshal Jan Christian Smuts, who was the prime minister of the Union of South Africa from 1919 to 1924 and also from 1939 to 1948. Following the ending of apartheid in 1994, the reformed South African government implemented a national policy of not naming airports after politicians. The airports name, and that of other international and regional airports in South Africa, was changed to politically-neutral names. In 2006 however, the airport was again renamed to OR (Oliver Reginald) Tambo International Airport, the former president of the African National Congress (ANC).
Our newest release is collection of eleven extreme aircraft from all corners of the world. With International Fighters you'll command these aircraft:
Pacific Extension Brings Global Enroute Coverage. New and existing users are invited to download the new batch of updated aeronautical charts distributed by Navigraph via the nDAC software. Notably, the extension to the Pacific region now brings global enroute chart coverage. Furthermore, over 600 airport charts have been added, bringing the total number to 24,289 distributed over 1,222 airports worldwide.
The YAK-40 project consumed 2 years of intensive development. It has several unique features: 1. It is one of a very few aircraft on the market which incorporates the state-of-the-art technology of smooth moving needles in virtual cockpit (they are 3D modeled, not gauge bitmaps), therefore they move smoother then in 2D.
