BMWorld and AmSim have recently released their rendition of Arlington Municipal Airport (KGKY) for Microsoft Flight Simulator, serving the city of Arlington, Texas, with a yearly average of 151,000 passengers (as of 2006).

It’s a reliever airport for DFW and DAL and housing companies such as the Bell Helicopter division of Textron. 

Unlike most US airports, KGKY doesn’t have an IATA code.

97% of the airport’s yearly operations consist of general aviation traffic, with only 3% corresponding to air taxi. 

The scenery features an accurate rendition of the airport, with a fully modeled terminal building, custom ground markings, high-resolution ground textures, custom night lighting, and animated people.

It’s available on OrbxDirect for roughly $9.53 and requires at least 1.10 GB of free hard disk space to install.
