Zurich Airport (LSZH), Switzerland. Includes two versions, one with the crosswind runways operating (three runways used for takeoff/landing) and one without. By Ray Smith.

My thanks for the Freeware ADE utility by Jon Masterson and Microsoft's SDK Compiler, these are the main tools used to make these .bgl files: These 2 BGL files are only for the FSX default airport: one with the Xwind rwy's operating where all three rwy's are used for takeoff/landing and one without: assigned parking, support vehicle roads rebuilt around the airport more fuel trucks and several other improvements, airport views are from the roof of the control tower (when in tower view) fully tested with Ultimate Traffic/WOAI but not required, please view the readme before installation.

There are 2 BGL files: FSX_lszh.BGL and FSX_lszh_cw.BGL. The 'FSX_lszh_cw.BGL' version is with the Xwind rwy's activated, the other version FSX_lszh.BGLis without parking is the same in both.

  • NOTE: PLEASE ONLY USE ONE BGL FILE AT A TIME. I.E. Make sure there is only ONE 'lszh.BGL' FILE in the Addon Scenery/scenery folder at any time, remove/delete any other lszh.bgl.
  • NOTE: When using ATIS with the FSX_lszh_cw.BGL file you will hear the fake rwy's, this is the method used in activating Xwind rwy's created by Jim Vile and should be ignored or if preferred use the version FSX_lszh.BGL.

To Install:

  1. Simply take the BGL file of your choice and place it into: Flight Simulator X/Addon Scenery/Scenery Folder.
  2. Start up the Flight sim and the changes will be present.

To Uninstall:

  1. Delete the BGL file and the default will then be active.

TIP: When at LSZH in tower view: go to your control settings and look for the "View track/pan Toggle". Allocate a keyboard key stroke to it (i allocated a button on my X52 controller) this will unlock the user aircraft, then you can use the hat switch to pan 360 degrees around the airport, hitting the key stroke again (in my case a button) will return you to the user aircraft position.

Enjoy and happy flying.

Not bad, but I have two complaints.

  1. The airport building is not really the same as it is in the real world. For example, there are no big letters on it, saying "Flughafen Zürich".
  2. When I tune ATIS frequency, it says: "...Visual runway 10, Visual runway 11L, Visual runway 11R, Visual runway 12L, Visual runway 12R, Visual runway 13, Visual runway 14... in use". In reality, LSZH has only runways 10/28, 14/32, and 16/34, so this ATIS message makes no sense at all.
