FSX / P3D AFCAD file

AFCAD File For ESSA

Stockholm Arlanda Airport (ESSA) gets refined gate and jetway parking that better matches aerial references while preserving the default layout for reliable AI and taxi operations. Built for Microsoft Flight Simulator X, the updated AFCAD keeps stock buildings, runways, and taxiways intact, delivering cleaner terminal alignment and more realistic stand positions.

Stockholm Arlanda Airport, Sweden. Gates and jetways have been placed as best compromise between the aerial photos and the default. The default buildings are a little further south than they should be. By Eric G. Hansen.

This AFCAD is for ESSA-Stockholm Arlanda. I did not relocate any nodes to conform to Google Earth aerial photographs. All buildings, runways and taxiways are as in default. Gates and jetways have been placed as best compromise between the aerial and the default. The default buildings are a little further south than they should be. I did not move them. The default Runway 01R/19L is further east than in real life. I did not move it. The .bgl files should be placed in any folder that is registered in your scenery library in FSX. The files are compiled with an FSX compiler and probably will not work properly in FS9.

How to install this mod

FSX / P3D AFCAD file

  1. Extract the downloaded archive

    Use 7-Zip (free) or WinRAR to extract the ZIP to a temporary folder. Don't install while still zipped — the simulator can't read inside ZIP files.

  2. Place AFCAD file

    AFCAD files (AF2_*.bgl or AFX_*.bgl) go into FSX\Addon Scenery\Scenery\ or a dedicated AFCAD folder you create.

  3. Always read the included readme

    Every mod ships with a readme.txt or README file. It tells you exactly where files go, what dependencies are needed, and any quirks specific to this add-on.
Still stuck? The readme included with the file is the authoritative source for this specific mod. Visit our Flight School tutorials or ask in our Q&A forum.
