Opened in 1952, Johannesburg / OR Tambo International Airport (FAOR) is the largest airport in South Africa, and the busiest. It is also a major gateway for tourist traffic and located 24 kilometers (15 mi) from the Johannesburg city center.
OR Tambo International Airport is bordered by the suburbs of Alberton, Brakpan, Germiston and Kempton Park. It was established in 1952 as the Jan Smuts International Airport, named after Field Marshal Jan Christian Smuts, who was the Prime Minister of the Union of South Africa from 1919 to 1924 and from 1939 to 1948 as well as a staunch opposer of “Apartheid”.
In 2006 the airport was renamed to OR (Oliver Reginald) Tambo International Airport, after the former president of the African National Congress (ANC), hence the change in the Airport ID from FAJS to FAOR.
FEATURES
Highly Detailed Airport Buildings.
Accurate Runway/Apron Lighting.
Fully AI-Traffic compatible.
Corrected layout with accurate road network and added vehicle traffic.
Ground markings and parkings are accurate and overall an improvement to vanilla FAOR. The models are sub-standard and not what one would expect from MSFS 2020 scenery. Buildings are sparse and alot of detail is missing. Texturing looks more like it belongs in FSX. Although an improvement to the stock airport, I would definitely not recommend this product if your into detail and accuracy. It is however, FPS friendly due to its simplicity.
