Area 77 Simulations Releases Porto UHD
Portuguese developer Area 77 Simulations have released their first X-Plane scenery today with Porto (LPPR) UHD hitting stores earlier today.
Work on the scenery has been underway for more than a year, with regular status updates provided via their Facebook page. Threshold previously reported the release of the scenery's video trailer back in June, when the developer then predicted a July release.



Rui Silva's first payware scenery includes much more than just the airport itself, with two heliports (LPDA and LPPH) and Porto-specific roads and mesh also included in the UHD package.
Here's the list of non-airport buildings included in the scenery:
- Buildings around the airport such as warehouses, container park and car parks;
- Animated radar;
- Navigation station: Glideslope, ILS e DVOR/DME
- Oporto hotel
- Metro stations
