Aviotek Simulation Software has announced the release of its first scenery for Microsoft Flight Simulator, and it’s one that many European simmers will be thrilled to get. It’s none other than EDDF Frankfurt Airport, the busiest in Germany and one of the major aviation hubs in Europe. And the best part? It’s completely free!

That’s right, Aviotek is making its entry into the MSFS scenery creation community with a very generous offer. Frankfurt International Airport is one of the busiest and most significant airports in Germany and worldwide. Aviotek says they have dedicated countless hours to studying, adapting, and implementing the latest technologies to bring this bustling hub to life in MSFS.

The result is a scenery they claim to be of payware-like quality, powered by a list of notable features.
