About Sheremetyevo Airport
As one of the economic hubs of the world, it’s no surprise to see parts of Moscow given a whole new makeover, especially the Sheremetyevo airport which is one of the most commonly used airports in the whole of Europe.

Although Russia plays home to many more than 1,200 airports, the Sheremetyevo airport is one of the most commonly used due to its outstanding caliber of facilities.
It’s one of the most advanced and prominently used airports in the whole of Europe, and this scenery package brings the airport to a whole new light – for those who have visited the airport in the past, it’s easy to see why it needed to be re-created within flight simulators. With such a vast economy behind the Russian airline markets, it’s no surprise to see that Sheremetyevo is one of the premium airports around.

If you want to see what has been added to this fine airport, then this scenery package is just what you need.
