[RELEASE] FSimStudios Nuuk International Airport

We know we have been very quiet recently… this is one of the reasons.

NUUK INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, GREENLAND NOW AVAILABLE FOR MSFS2020 AND MSFS2024! 🇬🇱🇬🇱

A few weeks ago, part of the FSimStudios team embarked on a research expedition across a number of airports. This expedition would result in the team getting stuck in Nuuk for several days due to inclement weather. As a result of this experience, and with the incredible cooperation from Air Greenland, we are happy to announce that we have been quietly working on a fully up-to-date, ultra-detailed rendition of Nuuk Airport, as February 2025, based on extensive in-person surveys.

Nuuk is among the most recently inaugurated international airports - a brand-new terminal and new 2200m runway were just inaugurated in Late November, 2024. Nuuk serves now as base of the A330NEO and Dash 8 Fleet of Air Greenland, and has scheduled connections with Canada, Iceland and Denmark. Direct flights from Newark, as well as more routes with Europe, are set to open as soon as Summer 2025. Additionally, BGGH is known for its stunning approaches over the Fjords and the capital city - which has been enhanced with various custom-made POIs, including HHE Hotel, where the team took refuge during the storm. Also known, perhaps more infamously, for its challenging and changing weather conditions, resulting in heavy crosswinds, icing and low visibility.

Nuuk is available RIGHT NOW!
