We start with an announcement from Orbx, that will release Bolzano Airport (LIPB) in Italy developed by Andreas Hegi.

This small airport in the middle of the Dolomitic mountains may not see much in terms of scheduled flights, but it’s in a really lovely location.

Here’s what the package will include, alongside a gallery of screenshots.

  • Realistic HD textures created from on-site photography providing the most immersive experience possible
  • Updated layout with new runway extension
  • Custom static DC-3 and helicopters
  • Main terminal with interior modeling
  • Custom ortho

Next, we get a new video of the Boeing 757 by Blue Bird Simulations, showing off the execution of a DME arc. As usual, this is still work-in-progress, as there’s still almost a year of development to go.

A release comes from RDP Presets, and it’s Bergen Flesland Airport (ENBR) in Norway.
