The '''Frankfurt | The '''Frankfurt International Airport''', also known as '''Flughafen Frankfurt am Main''' or '''Rhein-Main-Flughafen''', is in Europe the third larges airport for passengers (after London and Paris) - and the largest for cargo. It is located 12 km (7.5mi) southwest of downtown Frankfurt am Main. This airport-model is complete with respect to the Terminals. However, as there are constant changes going on in reality <small>(e.g. a "Terminal 3" will be coming soon)</small> work is never really finished. In addition to the airport the scenery also contains a fair amount of skyscrapers of Frankfurt and some other details. | ||
The version available through TerraSync is reasonably up-to date, while the version in the GIT repo contains some future changes (new runway, buildings under construction). In addition to that there is a new custom scenery with many details for the area around the airport. | |||
In General: | |||
* starting with FGFS 3.0. (and Scenery 2.12) the new runways and new ILS-frequencies are included and/or uploaded by TerraSync | |||
* prior to that you may use the AddOn-Scenery-Package from http://www.emmerich-j.de/EDDF/EDDF-ELLX-new.zip (See the README inside the package) | |||
