Addis Ababa for MSFS 2024
By Markus Hermans
Addis Ababa Ed Bole International Airport is the hub of Ethiopian Airlines and one of the most important airports in Africa. Quick shorthaul flights with the Dash 8-Q400? Fun multi-stop routes with the 737s and 787s? Longhaul overnight flights to Europe, Asia, North- and South America in the 77W and 77L? Or exotic cargo runs in the 77F? Ethiopian’s diverse fleet and extensive network provides a variety of interesting options for flight simmers to pick from. Interesting approaches and „hot & high“ operations at 7625ft (2324m) of elevation make for a destination that shouldn’t be neglected by the flight sim community.
Markus Hermans of Vatsim Germany has brought this wonderful destination (in its current expansion state and ground layout) to MSFS 2024.
Due to multiple changes to the apron layout in recent years, this version of the scenery is highly recommended for online communities such as VATSIM and IVAO.
Using this scenery will solve issues with misalignment and missing gates / taxi routes.
