We start with Orbx, which released a new trailer of Skiathos Alexandros Papadiamantis Airport (LGSK) in Greece.

You can watch it below.

Next, we hear about the TF-104G Starfighter from Sim Skunk Works, which provided a single screenshot and a development update.

“Interior and exterior models are finished, only missing some hardware for external model (ladder, caps, etc) and some little adjustments to both cabins; Interior and exterior textures are finished, only minor updates are required for the final release; Interior lightning system is ok, in this week we will apply lights to the external model; Systems are finished and tested, no more actions are required; Sounds are almost finished, we are trimming some of them to get the more realistic feeling possible; We apologize for the little delay, we know many of you are waiting for the release, but we’d like to release a model as flawless as possible.

If all goes ok with final testing, in a couple of weeks we will be ready to release (we hope less).

(P.s. In the picture is displayed the first version of Italian Air Force, with RAL semi-glossy finishing, with wide fadings between grey and green, rescue markings “minimal” with indications in English only, over bright yellow vinyls)”

Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
