NEW MSFS 2024 Marketplace Scenery: Flightbeam KSFO, Tokyo Haneda, Kathmandu & City Update 16!
If you're looking to upgrade your airliner routes and visual approaches, the Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 marketplace just dropped a massive scenery lineup. This week delivers heavy-hitter flagship hubs from Flightbeam and TechnoBrain, high-altitude mountain challenges in the Himalayas, a brand-new free photogrammetry drop across Italy, and regional military and STOL fields.
In this comprehensive scenery breakdown, we inspect all the new commercial hubs, regional airfields, photogrammetry cities, and night lighting packages to help you decide what's claiming top priority in your hangar:
✈️ INTERNATIONAL FLAGSHIP HUBS & HIGH-ALTITUDE CHALLENGES
We kick off in the US with Flightbeam’s San Francisco Airport Captain's Edition (KSFO), featuring on-site photogrammetry scans, crisp 4K textures, Summer 2024 taxiway layouts, and dedicated GSX profile support. Next, we fly to Japan for TechnoBrain’s Tokyo Haneda International Airport (RJTT), bringing dynamic night lighting, frame-rate friendly terminal modeling, custom jetways, and enhanced aprons. Then, we head into the Himalayas for Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu (VNKT) to tackle its iconic valley approach surrounded by custom 3D vegetation and updated terrain modeling.
🛫 REGIONAL GATEWAYS, MILITARY & STOL FIELDS
Shifting to regional and tactical flying, we tour RAF Marham (EGYM) in the UK with animated F-35 hangar doors, static aircraft, and custom night illumination. Next, we check out Hobby Field for Pacific Northwest STOL practice, Onslow Airport (YOLW) in Western Australia by South Corporation and Shadescene, Korla Licheng Airport (ZWKL) in China, and General San Martín Airport (SARP) in Argentina along the Paraná River.
🇮🇹 FIRST-PARTY CITY UPDATES & GLOBAL NIGHT OVERHAULS
We wrap up with Microsoft’s City Update 16, bringing high-fidelity photogrammetry and digital elevation modeling to 9 Italian cities: Bolzano, Cagliari, Genova, Pisa, Messina, Reggio Calabria, Rimini, Trieste, and Udine. Plus, we look at Dream Scenery’s latest wave of regional road illumination and night light enhancements covering Tampa, Tenerife, Cologne, Cartagena, Ibiza, and Zurich.
