LatinVFR, who got us used to countless custom airport releases for flight simulation, as released a new kind of add-on for MSFS. AREX: Airport Regional Environment X North America completely replaces the default ground vehicles in the North America region, for a more realistic environment that should better match the specific area you’re in.

The goal here is to provide a more faithfully experience while moving around the thousands of airports and airfields in the US and Canada. You will now find ground service vehicles with the logs that represent the most important handling companies, as well as the catering trucks, and each airport will have those companies that are most usually seen there in the real world.

LatinVFR promises that there’s no performance impact with this new updated vehicles, and it’s also a good thing that no external apps or files are needed, just keep using the default system for calling ground services.

Looking for something to upgrade other regions? Check our previously featured ‘Enhanced Ground Vehicles‘, which is focused on European service vehicles, and is also free!

AREX: Airport Regional Environment X North America is now available for just $9.99.
