Root Admin Mathijs Kok Posted May 10, 2013 Root Admin Share Posted May 10, 2013 We said it a few times but at Aerosoft we like to make our sim flights hard. One of things that does that is weather. And boy oh boy, Norilsk has some serious weather. See the climate chart I'll include. Release not yet scheduled but not too far off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iPetroSS Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Looking awesome! I like the sloped runway and the sloped lighting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ippokratis Approach Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Fantastic place, home of the really smart looking Nordstar 738's! I really enjoy flying to isolated and remote places, and finally a runway with a slope! Quick question: how the #&% are the AI aircraft going to land on that runway? And no, "with a lot of vodkas" is not an acceptable answer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAPTEJNLN Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 nice finaly a sloped runway nice, but a bit sad it´s not that region im flyeing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafal Haczek Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Fantastic, great news! I love flying in Russia. It will make some great connections from Yekaterinburg (with e.g. Ural Airlines A320/A321). I hope to see Moscow, Petersburg and Irkutsk in future too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flusi4ever Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I'm interested in how AI traffic will be made working. Any info on that? Usually sloped runways are not compatible with AI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flusi4ever Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 AI will never be able to use runways that are not unrealistically flat. One of the limits of an outdated platform. Will there be an option to disable the slope, so users who prefer AI over a sloped runway like me (being a AI-fanboy) could enjoy it even more?

Deputy Sheriffs mopperle Posted May 10, 2013 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted May 10, 2013 Looks cool in any way.For me a bit more interesting then Kamtschatka, as it is closer to Yekaterinenburg. So something in between like Yakutsk would fill a gap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joerg Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 WOW, the pics are looking awesome - luckily the developer seems to be a real flightsimmer, not a candy ai-lover! regards, Joerg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooze Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Runway Angle 2.67deg From Jeppesen: GENERAL RWY slope is beyond limits. Use extreme caution during landing. Take-off and landings for CAT B, C and D acft shall be carried out when the crosswind speed is 0.85 of the maximum value, at that the value of the crosswind component shall be reduced by 1m per sec under the appropriate friction coeficient specified in the AOM. Looking really challenging & interesting . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lindbergh72 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Sad with AI and sloped runway :-( because most runways are sloped in real life. I hope the problem can be fixed one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugiii Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Great to see that the 2 good FS9/1 x FSX (upgrade from FS9) freeware sceneries now will come as 2013 payware with new technic...sloped RW hmm yes, yes us AI fanatics, like myself must live with it, but FS9 & FSX has it's limits - no matter what, i look forward to this scenery ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flying-drummer Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Looks amazing - as always! A question: But where is the problem to make a bit sloped runways for example at the MA Munich Scenery? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloG Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Great to hear and see this - finally another Russian airport in high quality. I'm really looking forward to this release, as it's looking awesome already! A question: But where is the problem to make a bit sloped runways for example at the MA Munich Scenery? The problem - as far as I understand it - lies in FSX's incapability of having AI traffic on sloped runways. Now on airports like Norilsk (or Cuzco or Lukla, for that matter), where there isn't that much traffic, this will probably not be any problem. However, it would most likely turn into one when it's about large airports, such as Munich, because it would force arriving or departing AI traffic to disappear. And since a) many people - including myself - are using AI traffic, and Aerosoft themselves publish AI traffic packages, why should they attempt such a thing then? And where's the great challenge - I mean as far as I know most runways are not as flat as FSX makes them, but they don't usually have an extremely steep slope which makes landing and/or departing much more difficult.

xskyteamx Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Looks pretty Good. The only problem I see with this is ,that it's not located central. It's somewhere in Russia and only the Hardcore Russian Fans might buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafal Haczek Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 only the Hardcore Russian Fans might buy it It's simply not true. You need to think out of the box sometimes. European or American simmers also buy OrbX Australian sceneries even though their RW counterparts lie on 'the other side' of the globe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Der Flieger4 Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Maybe some static aircraft could be added, so the apron doesn't look so deserted, especially as there won't be any AI traffic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kihew Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 One of the 10 most polluted cities in the world, the soil is so polluted that it is economically viable to explore it for mineral ore (according to wikipedia, of course) - this is certainly an interesting place to visit virtually - it will make a nice cargo flight from Anchorage, at less than 5000 Km. It is a long flight but the arrival's difficulty level makes it worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just as Australia has a very limited potential customer base (just not that many Australians) but it does not seem to hurt OrbX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The following AIRLINES have regular flights to Norilsk : AEROFLOT (Rossiya), NORDAVIA, NORDSTAR,S7 SIBERIAN AIRLINES, TRANSAERO & URAL AIRLINES....so it's not that empty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
