  • Ultra high-detail rendition of the the airport
  • UHD PBR texturing
  • 15cm custom aerial ground imagery

  • Numerous POI and landmarks beyond the primary coverage area
  • Subsea 7 North Sea Spoolbase and Giske Bridge
  • Weather-dependent ground polygon
  • Custom edited ILS
  • Close to Notodden, Trondheim and Gothenburg
