Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport gets a 2011-era refresh with a revised airport layout, adding runway 10-28 with ILS, updated taxiways, expanded ramps, and more complete gate and parking assignments across concourses plus cargo areas. Built on the default scenery for Microsoft Flight Simulator X, it improves AI flow and day-to-day operations.

Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson 2011, Georgia (GA) v1. Welcome to Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport for FSX. This is an updated and revised default airport to represent it as it appears in 2011. Updates include: addition of runway 10-28 with ILS approach and associated taxiways, assigned parking at all concourses, a representation of concourse F, and more. By Erik Ingram.

Thanks for downloading this AFCAD for Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. I've worked on this over the course of about ten months (not that it really took that long. I simply didn't have a lot of time to work on it all at once), and I think it turned out pretty well. Here are some of the (many) updates I've made, based off of the default scenery:

  • Added all gates to all concourses, and assigned most of them (not all, due to limitations with ADE).
  • Added new runway 10-28 and associated taxiways (includes ILS approach).
  • Added new taxiway around runways 8L and 8R (designated 'VL' for 'Victory Loop'- I don't think it'a actually designated this way in real life).
  • Expanded ramps slightly to accommodate 'C' gates.
  • Added representative concourse F- there are no jetways or parking spots, but I may release an update once better info is available.
  • Added one additional high-speed taxiway (SG13) to runway 10-28 to alleviate AI traffic buildup (doesn't exist in real life).
  • Assigned some cargo spaces on the north side of the airport.

KNOWN ISSUES:

  • Some AI aircraft at the high C gates (C48-C57) may park partially embedded in the building due to placement of parking spaces.
  • Road traffic crosses runway 28 and one of the taxiways (I will try to fix this for a future update).
  • Some cargo aircraft may park at the few unassigned passenger gates (though pretty infrequently).
  • Concourse F just generally looks pretty inaccurate.
  • One jetway at concourse E is not properly attached to the building.

Recommended addons:

  • -Tyler Newport's Fly Delta Jets hangar (it should work just fine in combination with this AFCAD)- fly_delta_jets_hangar.zip at .
  • -Delta Air Lines/Delta Connection and AirTran AI traffic (use your addon of choice- WOAI, etc) - otherwise, this airport will be pretty boring.

INSTALLATION:

  1. Copy the folder 'KATL_ETI' to Microsoft Flight Simulator X/Addon Scenery.
  2. Activate in the game in 'Settings/Scenery Library/Add New Area and navigate to proper folder.

This file is for FSX only. Happy flying and I hope you enjoy it! Created with Airport Design Editor v. 1.50.
