Welcome once again.

                                      For some time now I have eager to include reviews
                                      of X-Plane products but as we are a small team, not
                                      everyone uses X-Plane. My thanks to Angelique van
                                      Campen of X-Plained.com who has very kindly
                                      agreed to supply X-Plane product reviews. The first
                                      review is of the SSG Embraer Evolution E-195. If you
                                      are interested in X-Plane, you should pay a visit to X-
                                      Plained.com for news, articles and reviews dedicated
                                      to X-Plane.

                                      The annual Aerosoft German FlightSimulation

                                      Flight Sim Awards by German magazine FliegerRevue. The FlightSimulation
                                      Conference is the highlight for flight simulation in Europe. Experts and those

EINN Shannon Airport 2018 by Ciano35 and Robert Byrne for XP11. Any donations, no matter how small, via Pay-
Pal to ciano35@gmail.com would be greatly appreciated. Literally 100’s of hours of work went into this project
and we are really happy with how it turned out. We were considering making this payware but want everyone to
be able to enjoy it. Shannon Airport (EINN) is an international airport situated on the west coast of Ireland in
County Clare. It is the third busiest airport in Ireland, with 1.75 million passengers passing through in 2016, and
is used as the first stop for many flights originating in America. You don’t need any scenery libraries as this is a
fully custom airport. However, you do need opensceneryx as some airport vehicles are used from that library.
Features: 100% custom buildings on the airport grounds designed to be as close as possible to real life (Details
below). Buildings have realistic night textures. Realistic orange glow night lighting. Removed excess aircraft park-
ing. Custom placed ground polygons. Cars added to car parks matched to Ortho’s. 1000’s of trees added to air-
port, surrounding grounds and golf course. Exclusions to remove autogen facades and objects. Custom Buildings:
Main Terminal. East Terminals. Aer Lingus Cargo. Servisair Cargo. Lufthansa Technik. ASL Aviation. Westair. IAC.
Atlantic Aviation Group. Fire Station. Car rental buildings. Golf Club house. Enterasys. Control Tower and sur-
rounding sheds/cabins. Park Inn hotel and Shannon College of Hotel Management. And many more Known Bug:
The alpha channel in the railing on the roof of Lufthansa Technik causes objects behind it to disappear. Currently
working out a solution for this. Please note that this scenery is compatible with X-plane 11 only. There are 2 dif-
ferent version of this scenery, one for people who have Ortho’s installed and one for people using default scen-
ery. The version for people using default scenery has loads of extra polygons for the car parks, grass etc. but ob-
viously won’t look as realistic as Ortho’s. Download the version suitable for you, unzip the file and place the ‘EINN
Ciano35 + Robert Byrne’ folder into your Custom Scenery folder. Start X-plane 11 and enjoy!
