Jarrad Marshall 1,228 Report post #1 Posted November 27 We are extremely excited to unveil something quite special today - Gothenburg Landvetter Airport - the latest work from our own Swedish expert, Marcus Nyberg! This is a project we have carefully kept under wraps for the past couple of months. Marcus has decided to take a break from his Spanish series, returning to Sweden following on from his award-winning Kiruna and Stockholm Arlanda airports. Due to be released just in time for the northern winter, Gothenburg includes ground-breaking snow technology, creating an immersive and realistic wintry experience beyond anything else in the current Orbx library. Combined with expertly colour-matched ground texturing, the airport is a true multi-seasonal location, with a large visual difference between the summer and winter extremes (as can be seen in the above slider). Serving as Sweden's second-busiest airport, Göteborg Landvetter Airport serves 7 million passengers annually to local, European and long-haul destinations. Located about 20km from the city centre, ESGG hosts over 40 airline operators, from regional turboprops and jets (Braathens Regional, Widerøe), low-cost carriers (Norwegian, WizzAir, Ryanair), legacy airlines (SAS, Lufthansa, BA, KLM), through to charter and long-haul carriers such as TUI and Qatar. As well as airliners, the airport is home to several corporate, cargo and government operators, not to mention regular visits from the Volvo-chartered An-12! Whether you are more interested in widebody 787/A330 flights, intra-European runs in your 737NGXu or A320, short-haul runs in the CRJ, Q400, BAe146, B717 or your favourite corporate jet, Gothenburg caters to all types of flyers. As to be expected from Marcus, the scenery includes all the latest bells and whistles - animated SODE jetways, interior modelling, up-to-4K mixed-material and PBR textures, advanced rendering techniques, stunning night lighting, custom vehicle animations, GSX compatibility, animated peopleflow and beautiful hand-placed autogen. Furthermore, for the first time in an Orbx airport, we offer full compatibility with the new SODE VDGS pack (not required and sold separately), to ensure the last part of your flight is the most realistic. Of course the attention goes further than that; expect to see painstakingly created custom detailing, unique static aircraft and GSE designed specifically for this airport and much much more. An airport scenery built to the highest standards, ESGG combines the latest P3Dv4 tech alongside best-practice optimization to ensure the perfect balance between stunningly high-fidelity visuals and excellent performance, perfect for all your Scandinavian flying adventures!

Er!k 26 Report post #3 Posted November 27 This reminds me of 2004. UEFA cup final in Göteborg. I was flying as a Cabin Attendant and arrived at the airport to bring Valencia supporters home. Because we were flying empty I sat on the jumpseat of our 757-200. I still remember the airport being fully packed and it was a total chaos. No stairs available for the aircraft and finally the plane was filled with 220 supporters... 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

addman 73 Report post #17 Posted November 28 (edited) Fantastiskt Marcus! Landvetter is the airport I´ve flown to and from the most so far in real life. I wouldn´t call Gothenburg a "winter wonderland" though, we usually get "grey" winters there lol! Anyway, day one purchase!

Scandinavian 9 Report post #27 Posted December 2 Excellent news, I am so glad Marcus took a break from Spain and returned to Sweden. And I hope he stays here for a while, and why not take a trip to Norway while you are at it. We have IKEA meat balls here also! +2 on Bodø.
