Airport Insight and Regional Context

Groningen-Eelde Airport, situated in the northern part of Holland, offers a hub for regional passenger flights and general aviation enthusiasts. Known for its proximity to the city of Groningen, it provides an essential gateway for both local residents and visiting pilots. This modified AFCAD ensures the airport’s layout in the simulator aligns more closely with real-world developments, thereby increasing immersion and operational reliability.

Installation Procedure

All necessary files come in the form of BGL documents. To install:

1. Copy the two .bgl files into your FSX/Addon Scenery/Scenery folder.
2. Confirm that “Addon Scenery” remains activated within the simulator’s library.

Removing the Files

To revert to default data, simply remove the two .bgl files from the FSX/Addon Scenery/Scenery folder. This restores the original airport configuration while keeping your simulator’s core installation intact.

Developed by Joost de Wit, this AFCAD modification seamlessly integrates into Microsoft Flight Simulator X, bringing a more precise rendition of Groningen-Eelde Airport and enriching virtual aviation in this northern region of the Netherlands.
