Fangzahn Freeware Zakynthos International Airport

[MOD71 175]

Great little Greek airport by Fangzahn worth checking out at a very reasonable price.... FREE!

The link will take you to the article on Digital Flight Wire (a very good flightsim news source for those that don't know about it), as thats where I found it. Just follow the links on that page.

I installed but it continues to crash upon airport initialization, I don't run Real World Greece nor Orbyx Global. I'll try a repair of LGZA with Anti Virus disabled.

I didn't have any problems Jim. I do have Orbx Global installed however - not sure if it is required though. I didn't have AV disabled when I installed. The developed is contactable through the website if you run into further problems.

Saw this yesterday and downloaded immediately, but have not installed or tested yet. To busy enjoying FB Quito.

I will check it out today. I'm always looking for Greek add-on airports, especially quality freeware.

Very nice airport, almost payware quality. Always good to fly in beautiful Greece.

Thanks to Fangzhan Aviation Studios, certainly not an easy first name 🙄

Cheers, Ed

Nice, but I'm not able to get the colors to blend with orbx OpenLC EU.

If anyone can, please let me know.

Just downloaded and installed. Unfortunately my ACFT seems to collide with something. I was just on final for RW34 when I hit something.

I then wanted to load my ACFT at the airport and my ACFT always collides with something just after initialisation.....

Looks excellent along with ORBX global textures and ORBX's new Buildings.

Great piece of freeware with payware quality. Thank you very much for bringing it to our attention.

Kindest regards,

You have collision detection activated? I wouldn't do so, many sceneries have bugs in it which let you collide. As it is VERY rudimentary i suggest to deactivate it.

I haven't installed this yet.  Does it have a facility to set the time of year?  At some payware airports different textures are used to match the seasons although you can't expect miracles for free!

Great scenery. Unfortunately, it's plagued by the same PBR bug that's hitting other sceneries where a long flight corrupts it: https://imgur.com/a/hh0gW0U. I sent the dev a note.

Yes I have thinking that the simulation gets a touch of difficulty and "realism". I only turn it off when flying online....

I don't own many 3rd party sceneries but those I have (~10), don't have such issues.

Nevertheless, this freeware scenery looks superb. I love those cracks and how the runway edge blends in the grass field. It creates a real 3D effect....would love to have the knowledge to build sceneries like that.

Great One, thanks !

Awesome freeware ! Worth the look just for the installer 😉 Fully automatized, Add-On.Xml...

Shore line is great

Author is making fun with the terminal interior 

... and the baggage claim

Is the author electrician ? The detail on the electric pole is awesome... but is that really useful ? 😉

Ground markings

Thank you to Fangzahn Aviation Studios !

Nice pics. The airport blends much better in your pics than they do in mine. Are you using FTXG or photo?
