Londrina Airport / Governador José Richa is a domestic airport in southern Brazil, third largest in the state of Paraná and fourth in the southern region of Brazil. The airport operates regional and national flights and has the capacity to receive medium-sized planes such as the Boeing 737, the Fokker 100 and the Airbus A320, although there are records of landings of model aircraft Boeing 757 and the widebody Douglas DC-10. It is also eventually used as a destination for Brazilian Air Force aircraft in training.
History
The arrival of the first pioneers to the city that today is called Londrina in 1923. Despite the great development of the region, the first airport was only created in 1936. But it was only after 1945, with the end of the second world war, that airlines started offering more flight options.
In the 50s, aviation peaked in Londrina. To accommodate the growing movement of aircraft, two large hangars were built. In 1956 the paving of the runway was inaugurated. Two years later, a new passenger terminal would replace the wooden facilities.
The name of the airport is a tribute to José Richa, who was the 47th governor of the State of Paraná, between 1983 and 1986, being the first governor elected after the end of the Military Regime.
After a few years, in 2000, work began on expanding the new passenger terminal. The chosen project, by architect André Silvestri, is inspired by the shapes of the wings of an airplane.
In 2010, the release of approximately R $ 20 million was confirmed, for the extension of the runway by 600 meters, installation of ILS (CAT I), a meteorological station (DMS I), Approach lights system (ALS I) and the installation of a DVOR next year.
Track and ILS
The expansion of the runway is also planned, but it is part of the “ILS package”, according to the superintendent. “We are excited that the ILS soap opera can be resolved soon. Unfortunately, the installation of the device depends on a number of factors. However, in the last year, the shares advanced more than in the previous 13 years, ”he said.
The works that are already being done in the yard are preventive. “We are doing preventive maintenance, to avoid future problems. It is almost like maintaining a swimming pool, ”he explained. According to Pio, passengers and airlines are not being harmed. “We do it by modules to avoid problems. Even so, 120 days before we started, we communicated to companies to avoid any problems ”, he explained.

They also taxi, take off and land at any airport, airfield, or airstrip with a suitable parking space throughout the MSFS world. They fly VFR days only and IFR day and night, and all have strobe, navigation and landing lights. They fully interact with ATC at all stages of flight, and ATC will call them by a real-world make and model name, and a region-specific registration number.
Offline GA Traffic is optimised for use with MSFS default offline traffic, FSLTL, AIG Traffic (in offline mode only), and Aerosoft Simple Traffic.
Please note that the smaller MSFS default airfields will have fewer parking spaces, if any, so always check your Offline GA Traffic installation and settings at a larger regional or even international airport.
New in Version 6. 0:
- All flightplans optimised to create an equal percentage of parked aircraft at every available airport and airfield - if you set your traffic slider to 20%, you'll see 20% of the parking spaces occupied globally.
- Bug Fix: Incorrect tail numbers for UK registered aircraft - all affected aircraft now have individual G- prefix tail numbers.
Installation:
Unzip the offline_ga_traffic folder and either cut and paste or drag and drop it into your Community folder.
MSFS settings:
In the Options > General Options section, select TRAFFIC from the menu on the left and under the AVIATION TRAFFIC section:
Set AIRCRAFT TRAFFIC TYPE to AI OFFLINE
Set AI TRAFFIC DENSITY from 10% to 50% for the optimum GA traffic on your system.
Under the AIRPORT LIFE section:
Set GROUND AIRCRAFT DENSITY to zero.
Under the AI AND MULTIPLAYER TRAFFIC DETAIL section:
Set both USE GENERIC PLANE MODELS options as required by your airline traffic program, Offline GA Traffic works with USE GENERIC PLANE MODELS either ON or OFF.
Set TRAFFIC VARIETY to ULTRA.
Offline Generic Traffic Fix:
This simple batch file fix will prevent ALL default AI traffic and liveries from appearing in the sim, including generic AI, stock AI and even third-party AI aircraft - do NOT use it with Aerosoft’s Simple Traffic! Offline GA Traffic will still appear in the sim as normal. See the included manual . pdf for full instructions.
Special Instructions:
If you don’t see any traffic at all with GROUND AIRCRAFT DENSITY set to zero, delete your ROLLINGCACHE. CCC file and re-launch your MSFS, which will create a new ROLLINGCACHE. CCC file for you. This file can be found in:

Lukla is a quaint town nestled in the Khumbu Pasang Lhamu rural municipality of the Solukhumbu District, within Province No. 1 of northeastern Nepal. Perched at an elevation of 2,860 meters (9,383 feet) above sea level, it serves as a gateway for adventurers heading to the majestic Himalayas and the iconic Mount Everest.
This charming village is home to a small yet vital airport that connects the region to the outside world. The village itself is dotted with a variety of shops and lodges, offering western-style meals and essential trail supplies to the throngs of tourists and trekkers who pass through. From Lukla, it takes travelers approximately two days to reach Namche Bazaar, a crucial stop for altitude acclimatization before continuing their journey.
The airport in Lukla boasts a single asphalt runway measuring 527 meters (1,729 feet), making it one of the shortest commercial runways globally. In August 2014, the Nepalese government unveiled plans to construct the first tarmac road linking Kathmandu to Lukla, a significant development for the region.
Lukla is served by the Tenzing-Hillary Airport, where, weather permitting, twin-engine Dornier 228s and de Havilland Canada Twin Otters make frequent daylight flights between Lukla and Kathmandu. The airport's short and steep airstrip, combined with often treacherous weather conditions, has earned it the reputation of being the most dangerous airport in the world, with several fatal accidents recorded over the years.
This scenery addon is an improvement in and outside Lukla extending all the way to Thulo Gumela, Tok Tok and Yeti Mountain Home in Kongde. Bring out your Helicopter landing skills as there is a lot of places to challenge yourself along the way.

The airport near the village of Boleráz near Trnava is named after the inventor of the parachute Štefan Banič. Currently, the airport is shared by two aero clubs. Aeroclub Trnava and Aeroclub Bratislava.

The airport near the village of Boleráz near Trnava is named after the inventor of the parachute Štefan Banič. Currently, the airport is shared by two aero clubs. Aeroclub Trnava and Aeroclub Bratislava.
The history of Aeroklub Trnava dates back to the period before World War 1.
The Boleráz airport as we know it today began to be built
In May 1975, the activity of the aero club was finally moved to the newly built facilities at the airport Boleráz - Klčovany. The location of the airport is very convenient for all air sports. The airport was built as a military reserve strip for ČSĽA aircraft. Mig15s, which were in service with ČSLA at that time, actually landed and took off at this airport.
In the 1970s and 1980s, there was a rapid development of all aviation activities.
Currently, Aeroklub Trnava unites members in the engine department, which uses sports aircraft of the Zlín Z 226MS and Z526 AFS-V types. And in the glider department, which uses G103 Twin Astir gliders, L 23, VSO 10, Centair 201A PEGAS and L 13 SE Vivat motor glider.
Aeroklub Bratislava was founded in 1928 under the name Slovenský Aeroklub M. R. Štefánika and became part of the Aeroclub of the Czechoslovak Republic. Vajnory near Bratislava became his home. Promotional flights and performances at air days were performed by military pilots of the Vajnor crew, who at the same time performed the functions of flying instructors in the aero club.
Between 1934 and 1935, the aero club built two hangars on the hillside of Dúbravka near Bratislava and began intensively organizing gliding training.
In the period before the Second World War, interest in building aviation and flight training increased. With great effort, the instructors also trained pilots for the aviation school in Prostejov. The well-organized promotion generated great interest in flight training in Bratislava.
However, with the outbreak of the Second World War, the activity of the aero club practically stopped. During the Second World War, many members of the aeroclub joined the anti-fascist resistance as participants of the SNP, the paratrooper brigade as well as in the Battle of Great Britain. Only after the war did life return to the aero club. A group of glider pilots, with the approval of the superior authorities, moved the captured gliders from Austria and resumed gliding training on the hillsides of Dúbravka.
In 1946, a parachuting department with a Douglas DC3 aircraft was established in Bratislava.
In 1954 the aero club was assigned new modern motorized and non-motorized airplanes of domestic production, and paratroopers were equipped with new parachutes.
As time went on, the airport in Vajnory became inadequate due to th
e close proximity of the M. R. Stefánik Intl. airport and its growing air traffic.
The Aeroclub decided to move, and since 2007, Štefan Banič Airport near Trnava has become its new home.
Currently, the aero club operates both motorized and non-motorized aircrafts. Its members regularly participate in top sailing competitions at national and world level.
