Orbx is pleased to announce the immediate availability of FTX YPJT Jandakot Airport. Jandakot is one of Australia"s busiest regional airports in terms of flight movements, and the Orbx version has been faithfully reproduced down to the last gable marker.

Orbx is pleased to announce the immediate availability of YWVA Warnervale Airport. This the first in Orbx"s series of smaller GA airfields for FSX with lots of character. Nestled in bushland just off the Pacific Highway on the Central Coast of New South Wales, this airfield provides a perfect hub for VFR flights north of Sydney and up to Coffs Harbour.
YWVA is the launch airport co-designed for Orbx by renowned FS developer Andreas Hegi, who is famous for his attention to detail. This airport and its surrounds have been completely custom Gmax modeled in painstaking detail from photos provided by actual pilots who use the airfield regularly. The scenery includes not just the airfield itself, but the entire circuit area and all VFR nav waypoints contained in over 57 square kilometres of photoreal terrain using 60cm, 30cm and 15cm aerial photography. For the VFR simmer who loves to be immersed in their surroundings, this addon is about as close to reality as is possible in FSX. It"s another visual tour de force which will be a must-have in your GA airports collection!

OZx (pronounced Aussie-X) is the collaboration of scenery designers that began life under the auspices of the FTX Freeware Development Team. The invigoration of a new name and our own dedicated site means we are able to develop and refine our skills and techniques in an environment that is removed from those intense pressures associated with commercial scenery releases. However, as a group, we still remain committed to the success of the OrbX Full Terrain eXperience ideals, and as such we will be doing our utmost to ensure the scenery we release will install without conflict and blend properly into FTX. The scenery can be download via our download section.

WilcoPub has just announced the release of the Tiltrotor, they write: "...Tilt Rotor is poised to revolutionize the way we fly. By combining the speed, altitude, and comfort of a turboprop with the vertical takeoff and landing capabilities of a helicopter, we can enjoy the best of both worlds.
No longer will airstrips and airports be necessary for high flying executive travel.
Full-size, fixed-wing aircraft capacity means more space for special functions like short-haul airline work, medical evacutations, military payloads and much more, with the convenience of VTOL helicopter operation or VSTOL in tight corners!
With an operational ceiling of 25,000 ft., this versatile aircraft will fly in icing conditions and extreme climates, from the Arctic to the desert with a range of 750 nautical miles and cruising speeds of 275 knots.
Transition from vertical to conventional flight is a breeze in this aeroplane and the on-board systems all combine to make life easier for the pilot under extreme conditions..." For more information please visit the WilcoPub homepage.
