The scenery is part of a package also containing SPIM, Lima - Jorge Chavez Intl. The package offered in two versions sold separately, one for FS2004 and another for FSX.
Each version is sold for US$ 15.00
Bogota’s El Dorado is without a doubt the most challenging major airport in the world regarding altitude and aircraft performance. Located at 8300ft and completely surrounded by mountains, SKBO will challenge any pilot’s ability to push the aircraft to the very edge of its performance, especially during departure in long-haul operations. In order to accurately portray this airport both in FS2004 and FSX we had to start by completely re-building the terrain surrounding the city of Bogota using the latest satellite elevation data available to the public and compatible with the simulators. As usual, we used high-resolution satellite imagery painstakingly blended with the surrounding terrain to provide a realistic backdrop. We then re-built the field including its two 12,500 ft runways. Finally, we spared no effort in capturing every detail of the two passenger terminals and the new freight complex which, as usual, we rendered in its finished configuration based on existing structures and artist renditions of the project.
* 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 SKBO 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.
Note: The terrain elevation files for this scenery were compiled using the most recent SRTM data available to the public form the USGS that is compatible with the simulator's SDK tools. The raw data contains numerous gaps, which are filled by interpolating elevation data for the terrain in the immediate vicinity of each gap. This procedure renders the gaps undetectable.
Note: The FSX default elevation for the terrain surrounding SKBO is grossly inaccurate. Consequently, the field appears to be located on a plateau several hundred feet higher than the surrounding city. The file included in our scenery is based on accurate elevation data obtained from the USGS and corrects the gross elevation mismatch near the airport. Our scenery depicts the field at the correct real-life elevation and level with the surrounding city. Unfortunately, the terrain elevation mismatch remains, appearing as a pronounced step at the boundary of the customized area. The boundary, however, is far enough away from the field that it does not affect in a significant manner the approach or departure experience.
