REQUIRES MICROSOFT FLIGHT SIMULATOR VERSION 1.34.16.0
You must be running Microsoft Flight Simulator version 1.34.16.0 to install and enjoy World Update XV: Nordics & Greenland.
Soar into the skies of the Nordic countries and Greenland and explore some of the most beautiful and intriguing sights in the world with Microsoft Flight Simulator’s latest offering, World Update XV: Nordics & Greenland.
The Microsoft Flight Simulator team is excited to feature this storied part of the globe with sweeping improvements in this latest release. World Update XV covers Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, and includes the Faroe Islands and Greenland (both self-governing countries within the Kingdom of Denmark). The update, developed with Microsoft partners Bing Maps, Vexcel, Maxar, Gaya Simulations, Orbx, and Kjetil Garpestad promises to exhilarate the flight sim audience with its range of enhancements: 90 hand-made points of interest, ten TIN (triangulated irregular network) cities, five hand-made airports, and broad-based, high-resolution geographic updates using significantly enhanced DEMs (digital elevation models) in Iceland, Norway, and Sweden, and fresh aerial imagery and satellite data across the entire region.
The TIN cities in World Update XV include five in Denmark: Aarhus, Copenhagen, Frederikssund, Odense, and Roskilde; four in Sweden: Gothenburg, Linkoping, Malmö, and Visby; and Norway’s Oslo. In addition, Gaya simulations created a splendid array of airports: Iceland’s Akureyri Airport (BIAR), Norway’s Mo i Rana Airport (ENRA), Sweden’s Kiruna Airport (ESNQ), and Finland’s Ivalo Airport (EFIV). Kjetil Garpestad created a stunningly realistic rendition of Leknes Airport (ENLK).
World Update XV: Nordics & Greenland also brings simmers ten exciting activities that will inspire and challenge. These include four discovery flights: Bergen (Norway), Gothenburg (Sweden), the Faroe Islands (Denmark), and Reykjavík (Iceland). There are three landing challenges: Akureyri Airport (BIAR), a famous challenge in northern Iceland; Ekeby Airport (ESSC), an epic sailplane challenge in Sweden; and an epic challenge at Norway’s Mo i Rana Airport (ENRA). There are also three bush trips: the Baltic Coast of Denmark and Sweden, Greenland Exploration, and Spitsbergen.
World Update XV: Nordics & Greenland is available FREE to all owners of Microsoft Flight Simulator. Ensure that your simulator is updated to version 1.34.16.0, download World Update XV, and take to the Nordic skies in Microsoft Flight Simulator!
