The Bryansk Airport (UUBP) scenario has been updated for X-Plane 12

The X-Flight team is pleased to announce the release of the Bryansk International Airport scenario update for the X-Plane 12 simulator.

Now one of the airports of the south-western direction of Russia is available for flights in a new quality. The script has been finalized to improve compatibility and detail. You can already download the update on our website.

Bryansk Airport has a rich history dating back to the 1920s. It was here that the legendary Valery Chkalov served in the 15th Aviation Squadron. It received the status of an international airport in 1995, operating flights to Europe and the Middle East.
Important for virtual pilots: In real life, since February 2022, civil flights at the airport have been temporarily suspended. However, in the simulator, you can fly to Bryansk, restore historical routes, or practice landing in regional aviation conditions.

Accepted aircraft types
The airport's infrastructure allows servicing a wide range of aircraft. When planning a flight in X-Plane 12, we recommend using the following types (according to the actual UUBP classification):

Boeing: 737-400/500, 757-200
Airbus: A319, A320 (with restrictions)
Domestic: Tu-134, Tu-154, Tu-204/214, Yak-40/42, AN-74/148, SSJ-100
Helicopters: all types
 Update Features
The scenario takes into account the features of the platform and the forecourt. The airfield infrastructure includes a runway capable of receiving medium-haul airliners, as well as cargo platforms, which opens up opportunities for cargo transportation in the simulator.

The renovated Norilsk (Alykel) UOOO Airport is already available for X-Plane 12!

Friends!

We are glad to announce great news: on our website x-flight.su An updated version of Norilsk Airport (Alykel) — ICAO: UOOO for the X-Plane 12 simulator has been published!

Nikolay Urvantsev Norilsk Airport, known on maps as Alykel, is located in the north of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, 35 km west of Norilsk. It is the only year-round air hub connecting remote areas of Taimyr with the rest of Russia. The airfield has a domestic status, but is equivalent to an international one due to its location at the intersection of the Trans-Siberian and Transatlantic air routes. But it turns out that foreigners have never flown there! :-) 

During the development, we studied the archival data and operational features of Alykel, including difficult weather conditions and historical incidents. This allowed us to create not just a beautiful picture, but a truly atmospheric and demanding airport for the skills of a pilot. Landing in Norilsk is a challenge worthy of an experienced crew!

A large-scale update of the Vladivostok International Airport (UHWW) scenario for X-Plane 12 has been released

We are pleased to inform you that the update of the Vladivostok International Airport (Knevichi) scenario for the X-Plane 12 simulator is already available for download!

We have worked on the errors and improved the detail of one of the key air hubs in the Far East. Now flying in UHWW will become even more realistic and immersive. The apron and the airport environment have been completely redesigned.

About the airport in the simulator
The scenario recreates the current infrastructure of a federal airport located 38 km northeast of Vladivostok and 4.5 km from the city of Artyom.

Key features of the updated scenario:

RUNWAY-1: A 3,500-meter-long and 60-meter-wide runway was completed (reconstruction in 2011).
Admission: The airport is modeled as accessible to all types of aircraft without restrictions, from light aircraft to wide—body Boeing 777s and cargo giants.
Terminal A: The scenario takes into account a modern passenger terminal, commissioned in 2012 for the APEC summit.
Historical accuracy: During the development, we took into account the rich history of the airline, which dates back to 1932 (from the first seaplanes on the Second River to modern liners).
A little history for immersion
Knevichi Airport is a place with a unique aviation biography. At various times, it served as a base for naval missile-carrying aircraft of the Pacific Fleet and civilian carriers. It was here that the era of jet aviation began in 1956 with the arrival of the Tu-104, and in 2010 the Boeing 777 landed for the first time.

In 2012, the airport successfully provided services for the APEC Summit, completing almost 900 take-off and landing operations during the event period. Now you can land on the same runway where the Tu-22M2, Tu-154 and Il-62 were once based and assess the scale of development of civil aviation in Primorye.

We wish you clear skies and successful landings in Vladivostok!

A new Sochi Airport Scenario (URSS) for X-Plane 12 has been released!

We are pleased to announce that work has been completed on a large—scale update of the Sochi International Airport (URSS) scenario, one of the key air gates of the Black Sea coast of Russia.

What's new in the X-Plane 12 version:

The airport's surroundings have been completely redesigned — the detailed territory taking into account modern infrastructure, including access roads, parking lots and adjacent facilities.

Updated textures of buildings and structures — terminals, control tower, hangars and technical buildings received high-quality textures with support for PBR shading for maximum realism.

The new up—to-date photo base is an exact match to the modern airport layout with detailed runway, taxiways and aprons based on fresh satellite data.

Optimization for the X-Plane 12 engine — correct operation with the new lighting system, weather effects and improved rendering.

The script is ready to be used in your virtual flights — from noisy summer flights to calm winter procedures. Feel the atmosphere of the southern airport with a new degree of detail!

 You can download the script on our website.

Enjoy your flights and a perfect landing in Sochi!

Makhachkala (Uytash) Airport Upgrade (URML) for X-Plane 12

 We have released an updated version of one of the most colorful airfields in the North Caucasus — Makhachkala (Uytash) International Airport named after twice Hero of the Soviet Union Amet Khan Sultan (ICAO: URML). The new scenario, fully optimized for X-Plane 12, recreates Dagestan's air harbor with unprecedented accuracy and is already available for download on our website.

Located 16.2 km from the capital of Dagestan and 4.5 km from Kaspiysk, Uytash Airport (translated from Kumyk as "Stone House") plays a key role in the transport system of the entire North Caucasus region. After the reconstruction of 2014-2017, the airfield received the status of one of the few in the south of Russia capable of receiving wide—body airliners - Boeing 767 and Airbus A330. Now, in the simulator, pilots can practice landing on these aircraft in conditions as close to reality as possible.

A story in every pixel

The scenario reflects the almost century—old history of the airfield: from the 1927 "air station" on the Moscow-Tiflis highway to the modern hub of federal significance. Special attention is paid to the heyday of Dagestani aviation in the 1960s, when An-2 aircraft created "the densest network of air lines in the country," transporting up to 1,000 passengers daily along mountainous routes. In 1999, the airport became a strategically important point during the anti-terrorist operation, receiving up to 70 IL-76 and AN—22 military heavy-cargo aircraft daily - this historical feature is also reflected in the landscape design of the scenario.

Astrakhan Airport (URWA) update for X-Plane 12 is already on the website!

For all fans of the X-Plane 12 flight simulator, the long—awaited update of one of the key airfields in southern Russia, Astrakhan International Airport named after B. M. Kustodiev (ICAO: URWA), has been released. The new version of the script is fully adapted to the capabilities of the modern simulator and is available for free download on our website.

Why Astrakhan?
Astrakhan Airport (formerly Narimanovo Airport) is a strategically important federal hub in southern Russia. Located 8 km from the city center, it is capable of receiving a wide range of aircraft, from regional turboprop aircraft ATR—42 and Sukhoi Superjet 100 to large-capacity airliners Boeing 747 and Il-96. Thanks to the updated scenario, pilots will be able to practice landing in ICAO Category I weather conditions (visibility 800 m, cloud height 60 m) at a Class B airfield.

Historical background in detail
The scenario takes into account the rich history of the airfield: from the transfer of the former Stalinsky military airfield to civil aviation in 1945 to the reconstruction in 2010, when the runway was brought up to modern standards.
