Aguenar Airport (ICAO code DAAT), also known as Tamanrasset Airport or Hadj Bey Akhamok Airport, is a mixed use civilian and military airport in southern Algeria near the city of Tamanrasset. The surrounding region features beautiful desert and mountain landscapes and its location in the middle of the Sahara makes it an excellent stopover during any trip across Africa.
This Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 rendition was created based on the few available photos and satellite imagery. It features three bespoke terminal and tower buildings that were recently constructed or renovated: the main passenger terminal, the control tower and the small building in-between. Adjacent to the airport is an Algerian military base where many buildings were enhanced or added along with carefully edited terrain textures. Enhanced roads, fencing around the entire airport perimeter and hundreds of objects provide a great backdrop during takeoffs, landing or sightseeing flights. Custom objects including realistic Algerian Air Force aircraft are included for realistic feel. Nearby solar plant and ancient tomb POIs enhance the region.
The airport itself features two ILS, all ground services, realistic taxi lines based on satellite imagery, and ravamped gate numbering, taxi lighting and taxi markings.
