Airport 2000 All Over Again

Wilco Publishing announced Thursday that it is developing Airport 2000 Volume 2, a set of detailed and realistic airport environments from around the world, for Microsoft Flight Simulator.

A sequel of sorts to the original Airport 2000, Volume 2 will feature London Heathrow, Chicago O'Hare, Boston Logan, Miami International, and Amsterdam Schipol, among others. The game will show great detail, down to the smaller buildings. Airports will feature busy traffic with familiar carrier logos.

Volume Two will also feature nine aircraft, including a DHL Boeing 767, US Air Boeing 737-300/400/500, Northwest Airbus A320, or a Business King Air 350. Fully interactive air-traffic control and ten new adventures round out the package.

Airport 2000 Volume Two is due out in November. It will sell for about US$40.
