Seattle Tacoma Airport for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 Gets Release Date

Microsoft Flight Simulator Cessna Citation Sovereign+

Hannover Airport for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 and MSFS 2020 Gets New Screenshots

Beechcraft Bonanza F33A for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 Coming This Week

Carenado announced that its Beechcraft Bonanza F33A for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 will release this week.

This means that, considering that it’ll release only on the official marketplace, it should either come tomorrow, April 20, or Thursday, May 1.

Doha Hamad International Airport for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 Announced and London Gatwick Gets New Screenshots

iniBuilds announced that it’s working on Doha Hamad International Airport (OTHH) in Qatar. Yet, we also get to see the airport that will come from the developer before, and that’s London Gatwick (EGKK) in the UK.

The project is “moving into the final stages of the development cycle,” so it shouldn’t be too long.

Incidentally, iniBuilds joins the growing list of developers who won’t develop any more new add-ons for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and will focus exclusively on MSFS 2024.

New York John F. Kennedy Airport Released for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024

We also get a release from iniBuilds, and it’s the Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 version of New York John F. Kennedy Airport (KJFK). It’s priced at $29.28 at the developer’s own store. If you have the MSFS 2020 version, you have to pay $6.70 for the upgrade.

It comes with the following features.

  • All-new high-detail ground textures – including bespoke runway, apron, path, and road surfaces – built to FS24 standards with hand-made ground polygons
  • Parking and taxiway layouts updated to March 2025, including new North Channel Road and subway bridges
  • New custom jetway models, built from scratch with full PBR texturing and animation support
  • Extensively re-lodded models across the entire airport for optimal performance and smooth LOD transitions
  • True-to-life landside recreation, featuring custom decals, realistic vegetation, parking lots, road signage, and authentic ground details
  • Highly detailed airport buildings, objects, and surroundings, including a brand new General Aviation Terminal model
  • Accurate dynamic lighting — updated runway lighting, Canarsie approach lighting, taxiway signs, and wigwags
  • Custom-modeled airport clutter and vegetation, including ground service equipment, handling objects, vehicles, and signage
  • Bespoke taxi signage accurately matching real-world layouts
  • Real-world logos and decals scattered throughout to enhance authenticity
  • Performance optimisations using the latest MSFS SDK features and enhanced Level of Detail (LOD) techniques
  • 30cm/px satellite imagery, hand-corrected and colour-blended for seamless integration with MSFS Bing data

If you’d like to get into flight simulation but you’re perhaps a bit intimidated by its apparent complexity, you can read our introductory guide, alongside the second episode focusing on installing add-ons, and another showcasing the basic instruments.
