Orbx Announces Graz Airport for MSFS
On their Forums, Orbx has announced their second native MSFS airport, Graz Airport. Sandwiched between the edges of the Samitzteich and Schwarzlsee groundwater lakes, the Airport serves the second largest city in Austria, and is faithfully recreated by the company's Havant dev team.
The airport has only one runway, which is 3000 metres long, accompanies by two grass runways. The airport serves mainly Domestic flights to cities such as Vienna, and European destinations from neighbouring countries such as Frankfurt and Zurich along with seasonal trips to the Greek Isles. Graz is also home to a major Microsoft Flight Simulator partner, blackshark.ai, who was responsible for the default scenery generation.

The real life airports is equipped with several flight training schools, GA companies and is the home of the Christophorus 12 air ambulance.
As standard issue with Orbx's modern airport products, the reproduction in Microsoft Flight Simulator is decorated with the best of Orbx's skills, complete with PBR textures, the distinctive terminal architecture has been accurately recreated and "tower hero-asset comes to life with animated signage." The terminal interior and the rooftop viewing area has also been modelled.

Spread across the entire scenery is 75 square feet of 30cm orthoimagery, brought to life within the airfield with detaild groundpoly. On the adjacent end, the G-Class Experience Centre has been modelled along with "a animated Mercedes SUV going through its paces."
