Each one is faithfully modeled in exact detail, including night lighting, static ground vehicles and aircraft, dynamic objects, interactive docking airgates, catering trucks and air stairs, working stop bars, lead off light, guard lights and cones. All textures made to the higest standard based on actual photographs.

The scenery also includes FSTraffic tracks and 'normal' FS2000 dynamic aircraft with option to choose between them when you install.

The interactive catering trucks are a new invention which really makes the waiting at airports a lot more fun! Heres how they work. One minute after the airgate has moved in the truck will move towards your aircraft, a minute later the ramp will lift up, three minutes prior to departure the ramp goes down and two minutes from departure the truck will back up. Similar movement is carried out by the interactive airstairs and even the traffic cones (which are there to stop ground vehicles hitting your aircraft wings and engines).

A free demo version is available which includes a fully working version of Luton airport. Visit the UK2000 web site below for links:
