Experience a carefully refined rendition of Duesseldorf Airport (EDDL) in Germany, now enhanced to deliver a more immersive environment for pilots in Microsoft Flight Simulator X. This freeware release incorporates major layout adjustments, custom structures, as well as revised jetways for improved realism. Developed by Thomas Ruth, it provides a finely detailed gateway for anyone seeking a more accurate representation of this busy international hub.

Detailed Airport Adjustments

The default Duesseldorf configuration underwent a comprehensive overhaul, addressing the taxiways and aprons to accurately align with real-world charts. Higher-fidelity terminals, hangars, and support buildings were integrated to replicate the distinct architectural forms found at the actual airport. Furthermore, elevated walkways (passenger boarding bridges) were equipped with advanced animation, adding layered practicality to the simulation experience.

Visual and Structural Refinements

Every building now features refined textures that highlight the airport’s core character. The observation areas and maintenance zones benefit from structurally accurate enhancements, capturing the essence of Duesseldorf's modern design. Night lighting has also been improved, ensuring more authentic runway edge markers and illuminated gates appropriate for local aircraft operators.
