Today we get a brand new look at DC Designs’ F-14 Tomcat, showcasing progress made on the exterior model. We also get a detailed development update from the developer.

Next is the release of London Oxford Airport (EGTK) by PilotPlus. It can be purchased at Orbx’s store for about $18.

While it’s not a main hub like Heathrow or Gatwick, it’s known as a premier destination for business aviation.

Below you can see a trailer, screenshots, and a feature list.

  • An ultra-realistic rendition of London Oxford
  • Full PBR implementation, from buildings to airside clutter and ground
  • Dynamic rain on the control tower and terminal glass
  • True to life static aircraft, tower, and terminal interior
  • Custom authentic ground lines, markings and asphalts
  • Updated 2021 layout – Working with airport management

Last, but not least, we couldn’t close the week without another tease of  Berlin Brandeburg Airport (EDDB) coming from Aerosoft.

Recently, we published our massive interview with head of Microsoft Flight Simulator Jorg Neumann, who provided a lot of new info about the present and future of the sim. A few days ago, we also got to hear more, including a trailer for World Update 4 which will feature France and Benelux.
