On behalf of Richard Nunes and Marcelo Nielsen de Acevedo I’m pleased to offer you an inside look with their recent released Santos Dumont Rio Brazil International Airport (SBRJ).

Right now, part II covers “what you miss” when you don’t buy their SBRJ and further on, I offers you a close-up of what can be found around the airport, and believe me, it offers a lot and for sure I’ve even forgotten some spots.

Wit that and much more, Angelique flew and checked the Alabeo Titan 404 twin engine GA aircraft and was she happy?

On behalf of the JARDesign Group we would like to bring to your attention …. X-Life Traffic ….. You Are Not Alone In The Sky!

And now – seriously!
Surely you were bored in the empty sky, not watching the traffic aircraft around, independently choosing a runway to take off, checking the weather without ATIS, giving yourself clearance to land in an empty airport e.t.c. Now we have changed this. We’ve added a ground and air traffic making your favorite airport and airroutes alive and interesting for your flights. Yes, we tried to make the traffic and ATC system as close as possible to the real and emulate real life well.
