Explore the heart of Bahia with one of the most authentic and detailed airport sceneries ever developed for Flight Simulator. Salvador Bahia Airport (SBSV), also known as Deputado Luís Eduardo Magalhães International Airport, is the main air terminal in Bahia and one of the busiest in the Northeast of Brazil, with a capacity to handle up to 11 million passengers per year. Located just 28 km from Salvador’s historic city center, this scenery has been carefully recreated based on real images and on-site visits, offering accurate modeling of the passenger terminal, runways, taxiways, hangars, and adjacent structures—along with iconic features such as the famous bamboo avenue, a true postcard of the airport.

Fully compatible with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and 2024, the scenery features a faithfully modeled terminal with PBR textures and realistic night lighting, an up-to-date layout of runways, taxiways, and aircraft aprons, as well as custom elements from the surrounding area and native vegetation. Ideal for commercial operations, regional flights, and general aviation, this scenery delivers excellent performance even with high levels of detail, offering a rich experience in realism, performance, and total immersion during your virtual operations in Salvador—whether by day or night, under the bright sun or tropical rain.

Our special thanks go to commercial pilot Alex Solla Lemos for conducting in-sim tests; to Pedro (Peu) and Gil from Aerotime for their support and technical visits; to Maira Silva, Douglas, and the Vinci Airports team for on-site assistance; to Lee Clay from Brasil Land Games, and Fernando Soares and Valeiro Souza from GearDown for their technical insights and modeling collaboration. We also thank Gilson from FLX Brasil for the valuable promotion of the project.
