Expert Overview

This mod for X-Plane 10 and 11 meticulously recreates Adalberto Mendes da Silva Airport (SBCA) in Cascavel, Brazil, offering up-to-date runway dimensions, realistic ground markings, and an authentic cityscape around the airfield for a highly immersive experience. Through comprehensive ortho-photo coverage and expertly modeled structures, it captures the region’s character while showcasing details like expanded runways, advanced lighting systems, and airport ground services.

In my decades of working with PC flight simulators, I’ve found the attention to detail remarkable—from accurately placed landmarks to the newly designed terminal that accommodates aircraft such as the Boeing 737, Airbus A320 family, and the Embraer E-Jet series. The inclusion of official PDF charts, ongoing airport expansions, and the developer’s commitment to realism make this add-on a standout choice for those seeking a vibrant gateway in southern Brazil.

This is an X-Plane 11 and X-Plane 10 scenery package Adalberto Mendes da Silva Airport (IATA: CAC, ICAO: SBCA), which is the airport serving Cascavel, PR, in Brazil. It is operated by CETTRANS, the semi-independent Transportation Authority of Cascavel, indirectly related to the Municipality of Cascavel, and under the supervision of Aeroportos do Parana (SEIL).

Aerial view of cascavel airport and surrounding town.It includes corrected aprons, ramps, gates, taxiways, lighting system, city buildings, ortho-photo scenery for the airfield area, and (XP11 only) airport ground services (like push back).

The airport was inaugurated on November 12, 1977. Since 29 January 2013, the airport is operating with a 1.780m x 45m runway. The enlargement from its previous 1.615m x 30m to the present size was necessary due to the constant increase in the airport's traffic. Ongoing projects at the airport are the installation of the Precision approach path indicator as well as a new improved fire station, which will raise the safety category to CAT 5. A new passenger terminal with 2.500m is under construction. This development will enable Cascavel Airport to operate aircraft such as Boeing 737, Airbus A320 family and Embraer E-Jet family. Current commercial airlines and destinations include:
- Azul Brazilian Airlines from/to => Campinas/SBKP, Curitiba/SBCT
- Passaredo Airlines from/to => Sao Paulo-Guarulhos/SBGR

This scenery was tested and is operational (as of June 07, 2017) in "X-Plane 11.02b2 64 bit", Windows 10 Home. It was also tested and is also operational (as of June 07, 2017) in "X-Plane 10.51 64 bit", Windows 10 Home.

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.
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.
