This mod developed by JustOkayPilot brings Grand Canyon National Park Airport (KGCN) to your copy of Microsoft Flight Simulator (MSFS) 2020 release as it's meant to be seen. The airport is located near Tusayan, Arizona, and around seven miles from the South Rim of the Grand Canyon National.

Grand Canyon National Park Airport in MSFS (2020).?It makes a great starting point and airport to explore the Grand Canyon in MSFS (2020). This is where you want to start your flights to get as close to the Canyon as you can in MSFS.

The developer noted that the default MSFS scenery was severely lacking when it came to detail. The default airport has pretty much no buildings, taxiways that were misaligned along with a strange chemtrail image that covered the entire middle section of the airport.

The developed created this add-on to bring KGCN up to its true-to-life detail which included 3D objects which represent it. These included; 3D hangars, terminals, a full selection of animated vehicles, the roads surrounding the airfield along with trees and vegetation objects too.

Also included are fixes for the default runways and taxiways.

The developer states that while this is not a true 100% accurate representation of the airfield, they hope you will find benefit in using the scenery to make it feel more realistic in comparison to the real-word airfield within the sim.

The developer also states;

I tried my best to keep the amount of custom textures to a minimum (for file size) that was needed to remove that pesky chemtrail.

Update Version 1.2 (Major)

  • Major changes to the taxiway and aprons (Some of it is back-end)
    • Better match the real-life airport
    • Most of the aprons have been re-mapped
