Owners of Cuzco X get 50% discount on the Flight Calculator (very useful to calculate how the altitude affects your aircraft performance).Manual contains chapters about high altitude operations.Circle approach mission (including audio).Special sloped runway for highest possible realism.Extremely dense and realistic autogen buildings (typical ochre roofs).Cuzco scenery with city, landmarks and airport.Custom terrain, landclass and LOD11 mesh of Cuzco and surroundings (reaching to the famous Inka site Machu Picchu).Just flying a simple circuit in a Cessna 182 means forgetting a lot of what is normal at other airports, in fact even STARTING some aircraft is difficult at this altitude! It is in fact difficult, in our HQ we all flown this airports and all of us managed to crash at least one time. In FSX this airport is challenging and entertaining, it allows simpilots to do procedures that are not standard. Of course in FSX its possible for everybody. That’s why only pilots with a special training are allowed to land there. To make matters worse, the airport is not very well equipped and the runway and taxiways are uneven and build on sloping terrain. Density altitude becomes a main problem under those conditions. Lastly the airport is located at 10.800 feet in a climate where temperatures soar to three digits (or >30 Celsius) often in summer. There are three main reasons, for starters it is located in a narrow valley with peaks towering over 2000 feet on both sides. Second, the main approach is a complex circle approach that gets you close to mountains a few times. Just go to YouTube and you will find enough video`s to proof that point. Aeropuerto Alejandro Velasco Astete, also known as "Cuzco airport" is well known as one of the most chellenging airports in the world.
