Expert Overview

This comprehensive scenery mod recreates General Leite de Castro Airport (SWLC) in Rio Verde, Brazil, with a precise layout of ramps, gates, and taxiways, plus realistic lighting and orthophoto enhancements. Tested thoroughly on both X-Plane 11 and X-Plane 10, it delivers an immersive experience complete with ground services (in XP11), city buildings, and a detailed passenger terminal to capture day-to-day operations. At an altitude of 751 meters and featuring a 1500 x 30-meter asphalt runway, the airport supports commercial flights by Azul Airlines.

Through decades of working with PC flight simulators, I found this add-on remarkably faithful to the atmosphere of Rio Verde while remaining resource-friendly. It accurately delivers essential functionality such as pushback services, a well-modeled apron area, and carefully placed scenery objects without depending on external libraries. Overall, it stands out as a solid scenery upgrade for virtual pilots looking to deepen their connection with this busy regional airport in Brazil.

How to install this mod

X-Plane scenery

  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. Copy into Custom Scenery

    Place the scenery folder into X-Plane 12/Custom Scenery/.

  3. Set scenery load order

    X-Plane loads sceneries top-to-bottom from Custom Scenery/scenery_packs.ini. Custom airports should be ABOVE mesh and ortho-imagery.

  4. Restart X-Plane

    Close X-Plane completely and relaunch. The new content loads automatically.

  5. 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.
