BluePrint Simulations’ KIAD scenery depicts the Washington-Dulles International Airport as it exists today. We did, however, take the liberty to clean up some of the construction debris associated with the ongoing Dulles redevelopment project known as D2. Some of those improvements include the new north-south runway, the concourse B expansion, and the AeroTrain stations located at the main terminal and at concourse B*. All other major buildings within the airport boundaries, including the current, expanded Terminal building, the new Z gates, the brand new tower, and the midfield concourses A, B, C and D have been portrayed accurately. Special attention has been paid to the precise location of gates and parking spots. The field layout has been modified to accurately represent the real airport including runways, taxiways, aprons and signage.
 
What is new in the FSX version of KIAD?

The Gmax models included in the FSX version were built from the ground up using tools provided by Microsoft specifically for FSX model design. The most noticeable new feature is the implementation of reflective textures in scenery models. Another noticeable improvement relates to the rendering of transparent and semi-transparent textures. As a result we have been able to showcase the remarkable architecture of the main terminal building including the spectacular curved glass windows.

 
As a bonus, the Steven Udvar-Hazy Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum has been modeled in detail. This magnificent structure is clearly visible during approach to runway 01R.

Scenery Features:

  • Custom-made, optimized Gmax models of the main terminal building, four concourses, new control tower, GA, and other service buildings within the airport grounds
  • Custom-made, optimized textures for all Gmax generated buildings, including reflective textures in the FSX version
  • Custom-made, photo real ground textures in and around the airport
  • Accurate runway and taxiway layout, including detailed markings, signals, and navigational aids
  • Custom-made AI mapping file (AFCAD)
* Some artistic liberty was taken in the rendering of the still unfinished AeroTrain Stations. The models will be updated and made available for download when more detailed information regarding the architectural features of those structures becomes public knowledge. If you have such information, i.e. pictures or artistic renderings of the external architectural features of the stations, please do not hesitate to exchange them for a free copy of the scenery. Only the individual providing the first set of accurate pictures or artistic rendering will receive a free copy of the scenery in his/her version of choice.
