Sky Blue Radio is excited to share that Orbx has officially released Cairo International Airport (HECA) for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and 2024. This impressive new scenery was developed by Sim Design Group and is available exclusively through OrbxDirect.

This rendition of HECA is the most technically accurate and visually detailed version ever created for any simulator. With precision modeling and modern data sources, Sim Design Group has recreated the busy Egyptian hub using updated AIP data, satellite imagery, and custom elevation mesh. Every major terminal — including Terminals 1, 2, and 3 — has been faithfully modeled to reflect their real-world counterparts.

In addition to the core airport, the developers have added realistic taxiway and runway gradients, animated jetways, and detailed night lighting. The surrounding areas of the airport haven’t been forgotten either, with handcrafted buildings and iconic Cairo landmarks included to complete the immersion.

Performance has been a key focus, ensuring a smooth experience for users with both mid- and high-end systems. For users of GSX, a fully integrated profile is available, offering detailed pushback options and stand customizations right out of the box.

Whether you're flying short regional hops across the Middle East or embarking on long-haul journeys to Europe and beyond, Cairo International in this updated form is ready to become your next favorite destination.

Now boarding at OrbxDirect — Cairo is calling.
