Post Description

Khrabrovo - is the only scenery in the world where pretty girls lead you to your parking, work according to ICAO standards and appear and disappear when and where appropriate. The girls are equipped with a full set of seasonal textures, their light indicators and reflective vests work during the night. The texture details are truly amazing - face texture alone takes as much as 512 pixels at height which is 16 (!) times more than the standard used in most sceneries. 

Animated laborers
«Wow», «Unbelievable!», «I want it!!» - these are the only emotions one could express watching the first screenshots, test ones then. The aircrafts at the most popular parkings are serviced by 3D loaders, loading the luggage precisely into the proper manhole, technicians patiently inspecting the aircrafts systems and the supervisors controlling the work flow. Yes, we even do not say a word about animated marchallers and moving passenger steps and buses with passengers.

Animated passenger steps
Self-propelled SPT-114 KD-Avia, with night lights. They are animated and come precisely to the aircraft manhole allowing the passengers arrived by buses to come aboard. The passenger steps are designed for the aircraft types assigned for the parking. These are B737-300 by Wilco/PIC, Tupolev Tu154 B-2 by Project Tupolev and Yak-42 by Samdim Design. The passenger steps are completed with night textures with pseudo-lighting. In order to have somebody to step on, there are the passengers coming by buses.

Live birds :)
Flocks of birds are flying in the skay over Khrabrovo! Each bird is animated and has its own good-looking textures – there are pigeons and crows implemented in the scenery which kite in the sky but do not interfere with aircrafts routes as their flight areas are away from the runway in spite of perfectly real and indescribable trajectories. 

Emergencies
When you set the transponder to 7700 the runway gets covered with fire foam for the case of gearless landing, and highly-detailed ambulances rush towards the holding points of runway 06 through taxiways 5 and 6. In case if you set the ADF to 123 frequency, there will be ambulances waiting for you at the parking 2, ready to take the injured passengers. 

Breathtaking airfield
There are 84 HIL lights along the runway and one of them is poorly lit. Check with reality :). Surface is absolutely real – up to change in the runway pavement and dirt on the taxiways. Khrabrovo Cosanta includes real number of lights both along the runway and taxiways, right number of steps in all terminal ladders and dirt spots are where they are in reality according to pictures, there are communications laid down beneath the field pavement with visible patches and runway surface changes at the 2250th meter, just like it does in reality. In addition we would mention proper number of concrete pads on the taxiways, smooth transitions to the default terrain, flaked markings, snow banks in winter and dozens of other breathtaking moments! 

As real as it gets
Trees placed according to satellite photos, concrete pads ***s as in reality, people and buses standing where they are on the pictures, equipment at right locations... 

We scrupulously created each and every scenery detail, paying attention to all Khrabrovo nuances and features. It is enough to say that it took us approximately 1 month and half of working over the main terminals, 40 textures and over 20000 polygons. We created everything ranging from oil dirt to marking flakes. The airport deserved the highest evaluation of realism from the M.Team leader who visited Khrabrovo and indescribable emotions of real airport personnel who tested the scenery and gave a number of advice pieces for achieving maximum level of realism. The truth is that we do not know any other such close to reality port in whole Russia.
