New release: Drzewiecki Design Warsaw Radom EPRA (FS2020 & 2024)... and it's FREE!

I was aware it was coming but I didn’t expect it so soon… and I certainly didn’t expect it to be free!

Wow, thanks for this. Downloading just now!

Extremely funny timing as it was just revealed that it’s been the worst year in its activity since commercial opening, and it’s 42 million PLN in the red

The operator is currently in talks to expand their connections, the government named “LOT, Wizz Air, Corendon Airlines, Sky Express, SkyUp Airlines and Ryanair” as airlines contacted. Right now, anyone who only wants to fly current irl routes has only one option - a Wizz connection to/from Larnaca every Tue/Sat. From late June, they’ll add a Thu/Sun connection with Tirana, and LOT said something about a resumption of Rome-FCO and Aktion.

As an anecdote, when I’ve been to the recruitment process at the Polish Civil Authority I’ve talked with a ground worker from Okęcie; apparently, LOT didn’t fly there anymore because the apron was too small for anything they have since retiring the Dash-8s. While I do think he was talking a bit of baloney - the charts allow for up to code E in wingspan, though with heavy restrictions - it is true that it is a pretty, but very small, regional airport.

And it’s in one of the cities that are subject to a lot of jokes from us lol, but as we say - “free vinegar tastes sweet”. Thanks!

Doesn’t appear at all for me. Wonder if that $0 was a mistake by Contrail….

True. That link doesn’t work anymore. But I installed it via Contrail manager straight away after @JakTrax78 ‘s post, and I’ve just checked and it’s still on Contrail showing that I own it and it is installed on my disk. I wonder if that really was a mistake and I was just lucky :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

I added EPRA to my Contrail account for free about an hour after reading the info on the forum. It’s correctly assigned to both MSFS 2020 and MSFS 2024.

When I was adding it, I checked DD website and it said that EPRA was supposed to be released on 16.01.2026, which in my local time (Z+1) meant it was coming out tomorrow.

For some reason it showed up in Contrail a day earlier and it was free :smiley:

I think it’s was probably an release date mistake, indeed.
EPRA is now back on the Contrail store, and now on Orbx direct for free

Looking at the map… isn’t it about the location where that new polish mega airport should stand?

Not quite, Radom is directly south of Warsaw about 100km away - the CPK is planned to be built around 30km west of the capital, around 52.14N, 20.40E

After I went and edited the title and content…

The largest airport in this part of Europe and the transfer hub will be called Port Polska not CPK :wink:

You are right, I’ll just defend myself by saying the rebrand move has been questionably effective so far (it’s only been a month) and that the airport will still 100% receive a different name with “Warsaw” in it anyways
