General information

The Zürich airport (used to be called Zürich Kloten) is the largest airport

in Switzerland. Located 13 Km north of Zürich it has three

runways and three platforms. What makes this scenery special is that

is shows the airport as it will be in early 2012 (as indicated by the

name) with the rebuild B platform, extended aprons and new parking

assignments. The scenery is created on an up to date aerial high

resolution image and is very detailed while keeping the load on your

systems as low as possible.

More information about the airport can be found at Wikipedia:

About the scenery

This product does not need a lot of special settings but there are a few

things that you will need to keep in mind.

The scenery shows the airport as it will be in 2012 (this helps to keep

this product up to date for a longer time). The charts (for example for

parking locations) are however not yet available and you will notice

that the scenery does not match the charts we include. The charts are

up to date versions and show the actual situation.

At this moment the runway lighting of runway 10 is not yet activated,

but we decided to include it in the scenery so you can start to use the

runway right now. Do note that not all runways have ILS, that’s how

the airport is in reality.

We advise you strongly not to fully disable Autogen scenery as this can

lead to serious problems (not just with this product).

In night conditions the buildings will have shadows from the included

light sources, however this is for technical reasons not possible for the

jetways.

The included Trafﬁc Toll allows you to activate or deactivate the vehicle

trafﬁc on the airport. These vehicles are NOT controlled by FS but by

AES-Lite, a module based extension included in this product. As this

will not match with the standard airport vehicle trafﬁc of FS, we advise

you to disable that.

This is a highly detailed airport and it can be that your system has

trouble delivering good framerates. In those cases you could experiment

with lower settings of scenery density, Autogen scenery, trafﬁc (both

vehicles and aircraft) and how clouds and water are displayed. When

you have a good machine we advise you to set a framerate limit of 20

or 22. If your system is not able to maintain this set the framerate limiter

to unlimited, this might hide some objects but will give you a far

superior framerate.

Compatibility with other products

As always our products are designed for a standard FS but for this

project we tried to maintain good compatibility with Switzerland

Professional, Pilot’s FS-Global, Flight 1’s Ultimate Terrain Europe. It is

unavoidable however that some streets or railway tracks will not fully

match.

Airport Enhancement Services

We strongly advise you to use AES (another Aerosoft product) with this

scenery. This superb extension will add animated jetways (far superior to

the default FSX animations) and a very accurate and realistic push back

procedures. The latest version of AES is already prepared for this product.

Season-Tool

The change of vegetation according to the season can be done with the

season-tool which you ﬁnd at the start link, or at the launcher.
