FTXDes maps the entire Albanian region at 2m/pixel resolution, spanning 28,748 square kilometers, with Tirana and major cities mapped, and employs watermasking and blendmasking to increase landscape realism. A high-quality mesh option such as FreeMeshX Global (FreeMeshX-Global-2.0.zip) is recommended.

By Gilson Augusto Rocchetti, a photoreal depiction captures Americana, a municipality in Sao Paulo state near Campinas. It specifies a 2 m mesh resolution and a 7 cm detail level, notes geographic scope around Americana and Campinas, and mentions direct access to Aeroclube de Americana via SDAI.

A KAUS rebuild updates the Austin-Bergstrom airport with photo-real ground imagery, adds a parking garage and cargo buildings. Runways and aprons align to satellite imagery, and new approach lights and terminal gate assignments are included.

By Marc-Henri Guitten, the work delivers revised landclass based on melanesialc.bgl for New Caledonia, a new mesh drawn from SRTM-v4 compiled in LOD10, and a new waterclass, plus updated banks, roads, and rivers with the coral barrier limits. It adds Djibaou Arts Center, a church, and Amédée lighthouse built with Gmax.

MYGF serves Freeport, Bahamas, and stands as the region’s gateway after Nassau. The project, by Bahamasflyers and Shawn Penn, follows official specs to resemble Grand Bahama Intl Airport, emphasizing alignment with available information for an authentic layout of the airport.

By Gilson Cirino dos Santos, this Parana state town-wide, photoreal depiction covers town and rural zones, including the airport. It uses five maringaXX.blg town-general files (1–5) together with maringaaero.bgl, maringaobj.bgl, sbmg_ade_gcs.bgl and autogen objects labeled with _ob1.bgl or obx.bgl.

Two helipads appear at Copenhagen’s EKCH, with Runway 22R handling takeoffs and 22L hosting landings as 12/30 remains closed, following official EKCH guidance.

Andy Johnston designs a partially completed One World Trade Center in Lower Manhattan, reflecting its construction phase near the tenth anniversary. The add-on integrates into the flight-simulation environment, places the tower with accurate placement within the regional mesh, and features custom night lighting to aid approaches over New York Harbor.

Ray Smith crafts a thorough overhaul of Perth International Airport in Western Australia, featuring two BGL configurations for runway use: YPPH_ADE_CW_RS.BGL with crosswind 6/24 and YPPH_ADE_RS.BGL for standard operations, plus YPPH_ADE_OBJ.BGL containing a newly modeled control tower.

A thorough overhaul of KRSW and KFMY reshapes the Fort Myers area, with landclass changes and a new terminal located on the opposite side of KRSW. KFMY gains redesigned taxiways, aprons, and hangars, and the package includes a library of new airport buildings and the Airport_Buildings_AP.bgl object library, authored by Art Poole.

By Markus Freyt, the openVFR initiative integrates OpenStreetMap data to enrich Switzerland within the flight experience, including natural features, landuse categories, roads, rail lines, waterways, and enhanced points of interest. Geographic data undergoes a transformation into renderable components that cover each quadrant, delivering improved topographical fidelity for alpine and valley regions.

Lee Marrow presents a freeware enhancement of Khartoum Airport (HSSS), aligning terminal facilities and cargo areas with real-world positions. The update repositions gates and stands for accurate aircraft placement, adds static cargo equipment and ramp vehicles, and relies on default assets without extra libraries.

Queen Beatrix International Airport in Oranjestad, Aruba, serves as a hub with flights to the United States, the Caribbean, northern coastal countries of South America, Canada, and Europe, notably the Netherlands.
