Our scenery depicts Barbados' Grantley Adams International airport as it exists today. Barbados is the easternmost of the Windward Islands in the Caribbean Sea. A former British colony, Barbados is today a very popular destination for Europeans tourists, especially British, looking to enjoy the mild temperatures and year around sun in a familiar environment. TBPB , along with St. Maarten's Princess Juliana Intl. and San Juan's Luis Munoz Marin Intl., is one of the busiest airports in the Caribbean. It receives daily wide-body service from numerous airlines and charter operators including British Airways, Virgin Atlantic, BMI, LTU, American, Delta, United, Air Canada, Monarch and Thompson among many others. It also serves as a connection point to other former British colonies like St. Lucia and Antigua.
TBPB just completed a comprehensive renovation project that included a new arrivals building, complete overhaul of the old departures building and extension of the tarmac to accommodate up to 13 wide-body aircraft simultaneously. Unique features of the terminal include the old arrivals building sporting a unique concrete roof. This building entered operation in the late 1970's. The most recent modifications added a series of cone-shaped fabric tents resembling those used in Denver at a much smaller scale, of course.
TBPB has a single 11,000ft asphalt runway with east-west orientation served by an ILS for eastbound approaches during foggy conditions. Prevailing trade winds from the east make arrivals and departures on runway 9 the norm throughout the year. The occasional hurricane makes TBPB operations quite challenging as is the case for most of the northern Caribbean.
Interestingly, TBPB became home to one of the recently retired British Airways Concorde aircraft. Concorde used to be a frequent visitor to the island throughout its long and illustrious service with the British flag carrier. The aircraft is now housed in a purposely built hangar located just east of the passenger terminal.
We hope you enjoy this scenery released as freeware to thank all of you, our current and future customers, for your continued support and encouragement
* AI parking spots were fitted to accommodate specific aircraft models (including default MSFS aircraft) and we cannot guarantee that they will accommodate your favorite AI models. Customization and tweaking of the AI mapping file will most likely be necessary. Most gates were assigned to airlines operating at CYYZ in the most accurate configuration possible based on information available to the public. Parking spot specs and gate assignments are available in the enclosed documentation.
