SAEZ version 2 is available only as an upgrade to BluePrint Simulations' SAEZ-SVMI Scenery Package. Installation of the version 2 upgrade requires that the original SAEZ-SVMI Scenery Package for the same Flight Simulator (FS2004 or FSX) be installed in the same computer you intend to install the SAEZ version 2 upgrade
SAEZ version 1 is part of a package also including SVMI, Caracas - Simon Bolivar Intl. The scenery packages for FS2004 and FSX are sold separately.
SAEZ version 2 is available only as an upgrade to BluePrint Simulations' SAEZ version 1 contained in the SAEZ - SVMI Scenery Package.
Purchase and installation of the SAEZ-SVMI Scenery Package for FS2004 is required prior to installation of the SAEZ version 2 for FSX upgrade.
The SAEZ version 2 Upgrade for FS2004 and SAEZ version 2 Upgrade for FSX are also sold separately.
BluePrint Simulations’ SAEZ version 2 scenery depicts Ezeiza International Airport as it exists in the fall of 2011 (spring of 2011 in the southern hemisphere). The scenery features all-new, custom-made 3D models of the great majority of structures located within the airport boundaries, including the three passenger terminals as well as all cargo, maintenance and general aviation facilities. It also includes new models for most air navigation and ground signaling fixtures. Improving on our SAEZ version 1 scenery, all the 3D models included in version 2 are 100% new and display significantly higher resolution textures with enhanced transparency effects. The new scenery also incorporates new and improved ramp and taxiway markings as well as new lighting and ramp illumination effects. We also added an optional set of custom-made static service vehicles designed to significantly improve the scenery’s display performance even at the higher scenery complexity settings.
SAEZ version 2 also incorporates all changes and improvements implemented at SAEZ since the release of version 1. Major changes include stages 1A (fully operational) and 1B (under construction) of the new terminal C concourse and a new air freight ramp. Special attention was paid to the precise location of gates and aircraft parking positions throughout the airport. The field layout was also updated to accurately represent the real airport, including two runways, taxiways, aprons and signage. Some additional signs were included to facilitate ground operations within the simulator environment. Version 2 also includes an all-new set of terrain textures carefully blended with the surrounding environment, depicting seasonal changes and reformatted to improve graphics display performance.
Design Considerations:
As in real life, we will add the brand new Terminal C in stages to our scenery. In the initial version 2 release, the first stage (1A) of the new concourse is depicted in its complete and operational state according to recent pictures and official documentation. The second stage (1B) is depicted in an intermediate state with the concourse structure completed but lacking jetways and various details. The ramp corresponding to the second stage gates is fenced off. An update to be published on our web site will complete the new concourse by adding accurately placed parking positions and jetways to the remaining gates.
The main portion of the new terminal to be added between the new concourse and the current terminal B (stage 2 of the expansion project) is not included. We expect to add the new departures/arrivals hall shortly after it becomes operational in real life.
All updates issued in order to add the various Terminal C components (stages 1B and 2) will be published as free upgrades to all SAEZ version 2 owners.
