Bram Fischer International Airport was officially renamed Bram Fischer International Airport by President Jacob Zuma at an historic event held at the airport on 13 December 2012.
The airport has the BLV VOR/DME placed at the correct location. Runway and taxiway lighting has been adapted to maintain the authenticity of the airport. The neighbouring Airforce Base, Bloemspruit, shares its runways with the airport and all the base hangars have been modelled in great detail. This includes the 16 Squadron Rooivalk helicopter hangar and various others.
The main terminal building and surroundings have been updated with accurate textures and the interior of the main terminal has been partially modelled to create a more immersive experience when parked on the main apron. Night lighting is enhanced and emits from the interior during the night cycle. The area facing the apron has also been updated with recent improvements to the airport, showcasing its current state. New GA hangars, to the east of the main airport, have been added and textured accordingly. All models have been reproduced using images supplied by airport and air force base staff as well as input supplied by the local community.

Fairoaks opened as a private airstrip in 1931, but was used by the military from 1936 and became RAF Fairoaks during World War II. It was used as a training airfield, with No. 18 Elementary & Reserve Flying School equipped with De Havilland Tiger Moths. 6,000 pilots were trained at the airfield. In 1968 the Alan Mann Group took control of the airfield, later constructing the hard runway in 1979.
In 2015, it was announced that the airport would be closed to build a 1,500 unit housing development to be known as “Fairoaks Garden Village”. This has resulted in a years-long battle to save this historic airport. On 15 February 2022, the original control tower was decommissioned, being replaced by a temporary control room provided by Helipad Aviation Services located adjacent to taxiway B. Recent works to the west side of the airport, have also put taxiway A out of action.
Fairoaks Airport has been accurately recreated by Burning Blue Design’s modellers and coders with on-site visits, and features:
- Over 80 custom 3D objects have been created exclusively for Fairoaks airport, each with full Physical Based Rendering (PBR) textures.
- Based on 2022 visits to Fairoaks.
- Includes new ‘temporary’ control tower adjacent to taxiway B.
- High resolution colour corrected ground textures.
- Working custom Windsocks.
- Open hangar parking and café interiors.
- Two Isuzu TACR3 Fire Trucks with realistic liveries.
- Also included is ‘Firebird 3’, in honour of the retired Ford F-150 which was based at Fairoaks until 2019.
- Dynamic scenery and lighting, which change realistically depending on the time of day and weather.
- Correct Tower frequency, AI pattern procedures and accurate taxiway placement. (Taxiway A has been left active to reflect a fully operational airport)
- McLaren Technology Centre and Production Centre POI.
