Charlotte Douglas International Airport (KCLT), one of the busiest airports in the United States, is now available for Microsoft Flight Simulator. Created by fsdreamteam (FSDT), this is a detailed and up-to-date rendition of this important airport for MSFS.
Charlotte Douglas International Airport is a major hub for American Airlines, who typically handles more than half of all the passengers that pass through KCLT’s gates. In 2019, before the pandemic, there were more than 50 million passengers, an all-time record for the airport.
The airport has four runways and one passenger terminal with 115 gates and plans for a further expansion are in place, with the construction of a new runway.
FSDT says they have recreated this airport with accuracy in mind, including the new CLT Terminal and Control Tower, every parking position and taxiway names. The terminal interior has also been impressively modeled, although it looks a bit lifeless in the official images. It would have been great to see some human models waiting around or even moving around the terminal. In any case, this looks like an impressive recreation of KCLT, and should please all those looking for a big American airport in MSFS
