NEWS! - Scenery Release : KLGB Long Beach Airport XP12 by Skyline Simulations

 

 

Located near the border between Los Angeles County and Orange County, Long Beach Airport serves the Los Angeles MSA. Due to its close proximity to the busier and larger LAX 20 miles away, LGB airport sees more domestic commercial passenger, cargo, military, and general aviation activity.

Long Beach Airport is a public airport three miles northeast of downtown Long Beach, in Los Angeles County, California, United States. It is known as Daugherty Field, named after local aviator Earl Daugherty. The airport's placement near many residential areas has led to it having one of the country's strictest ordinances limiting airport noise.

 

The Boeing Company (formerly McDonnell Douglas) maintains maintenance facilities for Boeing and McDonnell Douglas/Douglas aircraft (including the historic DC-9 and DC-10 aircraft) near the Long Beach Airport, and produced the C-17 through 2015.

 

Skyline Simulation are now a long term X-Plane scenery developer, but also known for their introduction of the SAM Plugin, for aircraft interactive gate parking and services. Known for the excellent Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (KCVG), Billy Bishop City Airport CYTZ (Toronto), John Wayne Airport - KSNA and the oddly distant LXGB - Gibraltar, they are a forthright scenery developer for the X-Plane Simulator.

 

Featured in this Long Beach scenery is the Boeing Company with its massive maintenance facilities for Boeing and McDonnell Douglas aircraft, the famous Walter Pyramid and the industrial area during approach with the thousands of hand-placed objects.
