London Gatwick has been completely modeled at a high level of detail for FlightGear. The airport was modeled by Don Lavelle ''(karla)'' in Blender and consists of well over 70 detailed buildings, features and facilities. The main terminals - north and south - have been accurately detailed with their different style piers and stock jetways. The airport is based on UK CAA 2009 charts and includes the novel passenger air bridge which was re-engineered to clear 747-height tail fins. Many peripheral facilities are also included in this highly detailed airport such as the cargo and maintenance areas and open air car parks which were given a semi-3D effect. Small details such as railings, columns, antennae and rotating radar add to the realistic atmosphere of the scenery. Frame rates will obviously be affected by the wealth of detail but it is expected that pilots will utilize this airport for arrivals, taxiing and departure of commercial aircraft and not for low passes in jet fighters... | London Gatwick has been completely modeled at a high level of detail for FlightGear.

El aeropuerto fue modelada por don Lavelle''(karla)''en Blender y se compone de más de 70 edificios detallados, los elementos e instalaciones. Los principales terminales - norte y sur - han sido detalladas con precisión con diferentes sus muelles de embarque y pasarelas. El aeropuerto se basa en los gráficos CAA del 2009 en el Reino Unido e incluye la nueva terminal de puente aéreo que fue rediseñada para salvar la altura de las aletas de la cola de los 747. Muchos establecimientos periféricos también se incluyen en este aeropuerto, muy detallados, como la carga y las áreas de mantenimiento y aparcamientos al aire libre que se les dio un efecto semi-3D. Pequeños detalles como las barandas, columnas, las antenas y la rotación del radar se suman a la atmósfera realista del paisaje. La tasa de fotograma, obviamente, se verán afectadas por la riqueza de detalles, pero se espera que los pilotos utilizen este aeropuerto para llegadas, rodaje y despegue de aviones comerciales y no para bajas pasadas en aviones de combate ... | ||
[[TaxiDraw]] was employed to update the existing AI taxiways in the current ''parking.xml'' file and should give a reasonably realistic feature for AI traffic. It is intended to improve the various aspects of taxiways in the near future. | [[TaxiDraw]] was employed to update the existing AI taxiways in the current ''parking.xml'' file and should give a reasonably realistic feature for AI traffic.
