AFCAD File For FVKB

Kariba Airport (FVKB) in northern Zimbabwe gets a more realistic AFCAD that refines runway layout, parking, and airside operations for smoother traffic flow and navigation. Built for Microsoft Flight Simulator X, it reflects the 1,650-meter by 18-meter runway and core services suited to regional jets such as the BAe 146.

Kariba Airport, Kariba, Zimbabwe. A more realistic AFCAD File for Kariba Airport than the default airport. Created by Bashir Ismail.

Kariba Airport scenery.

Kariba Airport scenery.

Kariba Airport is located in northern Zimbabwe close to the Kariba Dam, the largest man-made lake in the world, which provides a significant proportion of the country's electricity requirements. It is also a wildlife haven popular with nature loving tourists and venue for international tiger fishing contests.

The runway is 1650 meters long and 18 meters wide and can accommodate Bae146, or equivalent. The airport operates 12 hours per day. It offers air traffic services, customs and immigration control and aircraft parking.

Installation:

  1. Drop the FVKB.bgl and FVKB_cvx.BGL into your FSX/Addon scenery/scenery folder and away you go!

I have tried to make it close to realistic as possible using Airport Scenery Creator v1.40.07 and the objects that are available for use from FSX SP2 - Acceleration.

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.
