Stephen Posted June 25, 2024 Report Posted June 25, 2024 News! - Scenery Updated : MKJS Sangster International Airport Jamaica XP12 by Skyline Simulations Skyline Simulations have updated their Jamaican scenery of MK Sangster International to X-Plane 12. Sangster International Airport is an international airport located 3 mi (4.8 km) east of Montego Bay, Jamaica. The airport is capable of handling nine million passengers per year. It serves as the most popular airport for tourists visiting the north coast of Jamaica. The airport is named after former Jamaican Prime Minister Sir Donald Sangster. Originally named the Montego Bay Airport, a decision was made to build the runway in 1940, and the actual construction of the facility was completed on 18 February 1947. At the time of its completion, the town of Montego Bay was more like a playground for the rich and famous, and was considered then, one of the premier vacation spots within the Caribbean, just as it is today. The original terminal was built and opened on 7 July 1959, with a capacity to accommodate 500 passengers per hour, and parking for seven aircraft at a time. The new eastern concourse of the Sangster International Airport (SIA) was officially opened in December 2005. The current airport has a flow of 4,284,558 passengers a year and 41,263 aircraft movements (2017). The original v1 was a conversion of the LatinVFR scenery, to be honest the older FlightSim aspects came through more than the X-Plane feel of the area, review is here and it wasn't a great appraisal: Airport Review : MKJS Sangster International Airport (MBJ) - Montego Bay, Jamaica by LatinVFR/Skyline Simulations It will be interesting on a new X-Plane 12 review, as now only Skyline are doing the development, and the update notes cover most of the negative comments.
